After parking the truck in the garage, the "check power steering," light came on. I immediately lost power steering. I shut the truck off, and about a minute later started it and the power steering worked enough to turn the wheel 1/4t turn to the right and the wheel locked and never moved again. I don't mean hard to turn, I mean would not turn. Had it towed to the dealership in Fairbanks, Alaska and they verified that the wheel would not turn at all. Recommended replacement of the streeting box. There were no prior indicator lights on the truck and little warning of failure. Losing ability to control the truck could have got me in a bad accident. I understand that this was an issue and there was a GMC recall, but my truck was not part of that. The Fairbanks dealership said they never saw one lock up light that before. The truck does have a damaged title due to a house fire and the truck was parked near the garage and it melted the plastics/grill etc. Repairs were made by a certified body shop.

Steering Suddenly stops working when making a turn and have no control of the steering . Happen 3 times yesterday almost was in a accident. Then starts working again.

Becomes hard to turn steering wheel at slow speeds, more often while in reverse. On one occasion, a Stabilitrak message popped up as a warning and then the engine died. Does not happen every time but has happened enough to take it to the dealership. They concluded that it could not be duplicated so they could not properly diagnose the issue. They had the truck for 3 days of testing. The engine failure is seriously concerning to me due to having my children with me most of the time.

Power steering has went out multiple times when turning in parking lots. Without power steering its very hard to navigate the truck especially when you don't expect it to go out. No warning lights came on and power steering goes back to working fine after these episodes
