2015 GMC Yukon Steering

THE POWER STEERING LOCKS UP AND THE DISPLAY ON DASH READS POWER STEERING LOSETHIS HAS HAPPENED 6 TIMES AND EACH TIME I'VE HAD TO GO RESCUE MY WIFE THIS IS HER CAR. I FOUND OUT THAT I COULD REMOVE THE BATTERY CABLE FROM BATTERY TO RESET THE PROBLEM BUT IT ONLY LAST FOR A SHORT WHILE

WHEN I GET TO A RED LIGHT OR A PARKING SPOT SOMETIMES THE POWER STEERING GETS HARD AND IT GETS HARD FOR ME TO STEER IT DOESN'T DO IT ALL THE TIME BUT I HAS DONE IT MORE THAN 3 TIMES AND SCARED VEHICLES POWER STEERING MIGHT STOP WORKING ONE DAY

POWER STEERING LOST MOMENTARILY AFTER OPERATING FOR 45 MINUTES AND RETURNING WHEN VEHICLE IS SHUT OFF FOR 10 MINUTES.

THE PROBLEM I BEEN HAVING IS WITH THE STEERING. WHEN YOU TURN THE STEERING WHEEL SUDDENLY OR JUST KINDA FAST THE STEERING ASSIST WILL LOCK UP AND ALL OF THE DASHBOARD AND AC WILL SHUT OFF AND THAN RESTARTS. NOT ALL THE TIME BUT ABOUT 6 TIMES THE ENGINE SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT IT PUTS YOU IN THIS CAN HAPPEN WHEN STATIONARY WHEN YOU TRYING TO PULL OUT ON THE HIGHWAY OR AT SLOT SPEED WHEN TRYING TO TURN THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME

STEERING WHEEL CREATES A LOCKING/POPPING/CLICKING NOISE WHILE MAKING TURNS. THIS IS CAUSED BY A LOOSENING OF THE BOLT WHICH MAY AFFECT THE WHEEL BEARINGS CREATING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMETHING SERIOUS HAPPENS. THE CONDITION OCCURS WHENEVER THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT, FROM 0-35 MPH.

I WAS DRIVING ON HEAVILY-CONGESTED I-66 EASTBOUND IN THE DC METRO AREA (NORTHERN VIRGINIA) AT 70MPH. MY VEHICLE ALERTS ME WITH CHIME, SO I LOOK DOWN AT THE COMMUNICATION CENTER. I SEE AN ALERT THAT SAYS: SERVICE POWER STEERING ASSIST. I DECREASE MY SPEED AND SAFELY PULL OVER TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER. I TURN OFF MY VEHICLE TO SEE IF THE ISSUE WOULD RESET. I TURNED IT BACK ON, AND IT DID NOT. I CALL MY HUSBAND TO ALERT HIM OF THE ISSUE. I SAFELY REENTERED THE HIGHWAY, AND IT TOOK ALL MY MIGHT TO GET MY VEHICLE BACK ON THE ROAD. I ARRIVED AT WORK AND COULD BARELY STEER TO PARK MY VEHICLE. I CALLED MY DEALER TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. HE LOOKED UP MY TRUCK BY VIN AND SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON IT; HOWEVER, THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE ON OTHER VEHICLES IDENTICAL TO MINE. APPARENTLY, THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THIS PART ON MORE THAN THE VINS THAT ARE CURRENTLY LISTED, AND I WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED ASAP. I AM HOPING THAT THE SAME THING WITH MY A/C CONDENSER DOES NOT HAPPEN: I PAID $1,000 AND HAD TO WAIT 3 MONTHS TO GET IT FIXED BECAUSE THE PART WAS ON BACKORDER, AND MONTHS LATER, I RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL SAYING THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE PART AND GM WOULD FIX IT -- WELL AFTER THE FACT -- AND THAT SAME ISSUE AFFECTED SO MANY PEOPLE. I WILL ADMIT, THIS IS THE VERY LAST GM VEHICLE I WILL PURCHASE IF I HAVE TO COME OUT OF POCKET FOR THIS POWER STEERING ASSIST ISSUE. SOMETIMES I WONDER IF CERTAIN PERSONAL DEMOGRAPHICS ARE TIED TO THESE VINS AFTER A SALE. RECALL NUMBER 14V719000 RECALL DATE 11/10/2014 COMPONENT STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM
