2015 Chevrolet Tahoe Steering

THE STEERING MAKES A GRINDING NOISE WHEN TURNING TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT GET IT REPRODUCED, BUT FINALLY RECEIVED A BULLETIN ADVISING TO REPLACE THE STEERING BEARINGS. THIS WAS DONE YESTERDAY AND IT STILL DOES IT TODAY. I'VE READ OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME THING ON THE INTERNET, SOME MENTIONING IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS AGREED TO CONTACT THEIR ENGINEERS FOR ADDITIONAL GUIDANCE. HOWEVER, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY OF THIS ONGOING ISSUE.

AT A SLOW SPEED, <15 MPH, ON A ROCK PAVED RESIDENTIAL ROAD, STEERING ABRUPTLY SNAPPED LEFT. STEERING WHEEL THEN POSITIONED 180 DEGREES AWAY FROM NORMAL. RESULTED IN VEHICLE DAMAGE TO RACK/PINION, LEFT WHEEL KNUCKLE, LOSS OF CALIBRATION OF STEERING AND BACK UP CAMERA. ALSO RESULTED IN INJURY, BROKEN ARM/WRIST, OF DRIVER, REQUIRING SURGERY AND HOSPITALIZATION....I HAVE 3 PDF DOCUMENTS I'D LIKE TO SEND TO YOU BY EMAIL. MY SYSTEM, AND YOUR'S, IS NOT ALLOWING ME TO UPLOAD....UPDATED 10/29/15*BF

IT STARTED WITH A CLICKING SOUND WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. I BROUGHT IT TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY CHANGED ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN. A WEEK LATER IT MADE A CLICKING SOUND AGAIN ON A HARD TURN. I CALLED GM TO ASK ABOUT A BUY BACK. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THAT CAR WITH KIDS. THEN LATER THE SAME DAY, I WAS BACKING OUT OF SONS LITTLE LEAGUE GAME AND STEERING COLUMN LOCKED AND DISPLAYED LOCKED ON INFORMATION SCREEN. I HIT BRAKES AND LOCK DISPLAY DISAPPEARED SO I SHIFTED TO PARK AND THEN TO BACK TO REVERSE AND STEERING COLUMN LOCK AGAIN DISPLAY AND LOCK. I THEN PUT CAR BACK INTO PARK AND TURNED OFF. I TURN CAR BACK ON AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND IT WAS WORKING FINE NO MORE STEERING COLUMN LOCK DISPLAY. I HAVE A KEYLESS START, LOADED LT MODEL THAT HAS ALL FEATURES OF AN LTZ TAHOE.
