STEERING
Potential Consequences:
AFTER BEING PARKED FOR A FEW HOURS IN -10 DEGREE WEATHER OR COLDER I LOSE POWER STEERING. WHEN I START THE VEHICLE AND ATTEMPT TO BACK OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY I AM UNABLE TO TURN THE WHEEL WITHOUT AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF EFFORT. A SERVICE MESSAGE APPEARS STATING "POWER STEERING ASSIST. DRIVE WITH CARE." THIS HAS OCCURRED EVERY TIME I HAVE LEFT THE VEHICLE IN COLD WEATHER FOR LONGER THAN AN HOUR OR SO. EACH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED I HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE TO BE ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE INTO A HEATED GARAGE RIGHT AWAY AND AFTER A FEW HOURS WHEN I START THE VEHICLE THE POWER STEERING FAILURE HAS RESOLVED AND THE STEERING WHEEL TURNS WITH EASE AGAIN.THIS SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO RECALL NUMBER 16V054000 (15595) ON 2/1/16 FOR THE 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO WHICH REQUIRED THE STEERING GEAR TORQUE SENSOR COVER ASSEMBLY BE REPLACED DUE TO A LOSS OR REDUCTION IN POWER STEERING ASSIST. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. I LOOKED UP THE ISSUE ON THE INTERNET AND THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS WITH 2016 CHEVROLET COLORADO AND GMC CANYONS AND MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD IT OCCUR WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAYS AT HIGH SPEEDS AND AROUND ICY CORNERS. APPARENTLY, IT CAN OCCUR IN ANY WEATHER NOT JUST COLD WEATHER THOUGH MY ISSUE HAS ONLY OCCURRED SINCE THE WEATHER DROPPED BELOW ZERO.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
AFTER DRIVING 10 MILES, I PARKED MY VEHICLE IN MY APARTMENT PARKING LOT. APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES LATER, I GOT BACK IN MY VEHICLE TO LEAVE. UPON TURNING ON MY VEHICLE, I FELT MY BRAKES HARD WHEN I PUT MY VEHICLE IN REVERSE. THE VEHICLE STARTED ROLLING BACK WITH MY FOOT STILL ON THE BRAKE AND I HAD TO PRESS ON THE BRAKES EXTREMELY HARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE FROM MOVING. THE VEHICLE STRUGGLED TO STOP, SKID AND THEN STOPPED. I PUT THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE AND IT DID THE SAME THING. I LIVE ACROSS THE STREET FROM PEP BOYS SO I CAUTIOUSLY DROVE IT TO PEP BOYS AND THEY FOUND THE BRAKE BOOSTER VACUUM HOSE WAS UNPLUGGED. THEY RECONNECTED IT, BUT NOW I'M SCARED FOR MY SAFETY FROM THE POSSIBILITY OF THE HOSE DISCONNECTING WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THEY MENTIONED THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAS TO BE REPLACED, BUT THEY ARE CONFUSED AS TO WHY IT'S HAPPENING BECAUSE MY VEHICLE IS FAIRLY NEW.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
WHEN DRIVING ABOUT 35 MPH, AND THEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL TO ACCELERATE / PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE, THE ENGINE REVS UP TO 4000 ' 5000 RPMS, BUT DOES NOT DOWNSHIFT. IT THEN TAKES A FEW SECONDS TO GO BACK TO 1200-1500 RPM RANGE. IT MAY DOWNSHIFT AT THAT POINT, AND THE TRUCK WILL JERK VIOLENTLY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT NEW. THEY SAID GM IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND REFERRED TO TSB #PIP5547. I TOOK IT IN AGAIN IN DEC. 2019 BEFORE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. THEY HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 18 DAYS. THEY AGREE THERE IS A PROBLEM, BUT GM HAS NO FIX FOR IT. THIS IS A REPEATABLE PROBLEM, HAPPEN CONSISTENTLY IN THE 30 TO 40 MPH RANGE. THE MANUAL STATES THAT WHEN TRYING TO PASS AT LESS THAN 35 MPH, PRESS THE ACCELERATOR HALFWAY DOWN, AS I HAVE DONE. THAT IS WHEN THE ENGINE REVS UP BUT DOES NOT DOWNSHIFT LIKE IT NORMALLY SHOULD. BUT THEN THE DOWNSHIFT DOES OCCURS WHILE THE RPMS ARE COMING BACK DOWN, AND THE TRUCK JERKS VIOLENTLY. THIS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE I AM UNABLE TO RELIABLY PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE AT THIS SPEED. ALSO, THE SAME BEHAVIOR WILL OCCUR IN THE 50 TO 60 MPH RANGE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN USING AN ON RAMP TO GET ON AN EXPRESSWAY.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
AFTER I PARKED THE TRUCK OUTSIDE IN ABOUT -15 FOR ABOUT 4 HOURS, I STARTED THE TRUCK AND TRIED TO PULL OUT THE DRIVEWAY BUT EXPERIENCED A LOST OF POWER STEERING. I COULD BARELY TURN. FORTUNATELY, MY FRIEND LET ME USE THEIR HEATED GARAGE. I LET IT SAT FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES, STARTED IT, AND STILL NO POWER STEERING AND THE "SERVICE POWER STEERING" MESSAGE WAS SHOWN. LET IT SAT FOR ANOTHER 15 MINUTES, INITIALLY NO POWER STEERING AND SAME DIC MESSAGE, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT STARTED WORKING. DROVE 20 MINUTES HOME WITHOUT FURTHER PROBLEMS. BUT THAT MADE ME WORRY THAT IF IT HAPPENS AT SPEED, THE OUTCOME WOULD BE VERY DIFFERENT!

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. ONCE IN 2018 APPROX FEB. THE STEERING LOST ALL ELECTRIC ASSIST. THIS ALWAYS APPEARED AFTER IT WAS DRIVEN AND HAD BEEN PARKED. IT DID THIS ABOUT 4 TIMES BEFORE THE DEALER WOULD REPAIR IT. AT THAT TIME EVERYTHING WAS COVERED BY WARRANTY. THIS TIME, THE SAME PROBLEM, LOSS OF ALL STEERING ASSIST AFTER DRIVING AND IT WAS PARKED. SAME ISSUE, THIS TIME THEY TELL ME THE STEERING GEAR BOX NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF OVER $2000.00. EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUE THE 2015 WAS HAVING. I HAVE READ THE COMPLAINTS AND I FEAR THIS WILL HAPPEN AT HIGHWAY SPEED. WE LIVE IN AN EXTREME COLD CLIMATE AT TIMES AND BOTH INSTANCES MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED AFTER DRIVING IN -20F WEATHER.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
WHILE DRIVING FROM THE GROCERY STORE TO OUR HOUSE, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME INCREDIBLY STIFF AND A MESSAGE APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD WARNING ME TO SERVICE POWER STEERING AND DRIVE WITH CARE. I WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN OUT OF THE PARKING LOT ONTO THE CITY STREET AND THE STEERING WHEEL WENT STIFF AND THE MESSAGE APPEARED. I HAD TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL WITH A LOT OF FORCE TO AVOID CROSSING OVER THE CORRECT LANE AND GO ONTO HEAD ON TRAFFIC. LUCKILY THE GROCERY STORE ISN'T FAR FROM MY HOUSE. IF MY WIFE OR SONS HAD BEEN DRIVING THEN THIS COULD HAVE ENDED BADLY. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME I'VE LOST POWER STEERING. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY I TURNED TO THE OFF RAMP AND AGAIN THE STEERING WHEEL WENT STIFF WITH THE POWER STEERING LOSS MESSAGE. SINCE THEN THE TRUCK DOESN'T SEE MUCH USE. LATELY, IT HAS BEEN GETTING SO BAD THAT THE POWER STEERING DOESN'T EVEN WORK AND STARTS STIFF WHEN FIRST TURNING ON THE TRUCK. SOMETIMES THE POWER STEERING ISN'T STIFF WHEN FIRST TURNED ON BUT THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING MESSAGE STILL OCCURS. THE TRUCK JUST SITS UNUSED BECAUSE IT IS FLAT OUT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. I'VE CHECKED ALL OF THE FUSES AND THEY WERE ALL FINE. I'VE DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY FOR 20 MINUTES AND RECONNECTED IT AND THE STEERING WHEEL IS STILL STIFF AND THE SAME POWERING STEERING LOSS MESSAGE.
