2016 CHEVROLET COLORADO Complaints

My wife could have killed herself or somebody when the power steering went out on the highway this is a serious problem and a continues to happen daily

Sudden Stabilitrak and power steering failure. It was very dangerous while driving. It caused me to Lose control but i luckily didn’t crash. It is a known issue with cars manufactured 6 months prior to my car manufacture date. This issue is extremely common and dangerous for 2016 Chevy Colorado's but there is no recalls. Only a recall on 2015 models. Someone is going to Die when their power steering goes out at high speed. Many people are posting about this issue.

The electric power steering is going out spontaneously while driving and also disengaging stablitrak and abs just like the already known recall for the 2015

Driving down the road the power steering was lost. Received stabiltrak fault and steering loss light. Pulled off the road and shut off for a minute then restarted and it cleared and was fine. One time I had to do this twice to clear. This has happened 5 times in the past 4 years. Twice within the past 2 months. I understand GM is aware but no recall, however I have read of several complaints about this mainly on 2015’s but it’s the same part on the 2016.

My 2016 Colorado is experiencing power steering loss at random occurrences while driving. The date that I lost below was the last time this happened, but it has happened over 10 times in the 5 months I have owned this truck. I'm aware there was a recall on the 2015 with the same issue. I also have seen that there have been over 200 complaints about this problem happening. This is a major problem that affects mine and my families safety, and if something is not done about this and I get into an accident then I will be contacting my lawyer and pursuing legal action against GM.

During operation, the power steering cuts off. I have to turn the car off and back on for the power steering to work again. It is very dangerous because the power steering went out while I was driving on an interstate. I am really worried that the power steering will fail when I am turning in an urban setting with pedestrians around. It appears that this is a known issue and is very common for 2016 Colorado trucks. GM recalled their 2015 trucks for this same issue, but they haven't recalled the 2016 Colorado. This is very dangerous and needs to be looked at!

My 2016 Colorado power steering went out today for the fourth time stabilitrak symbol came on the dash board and truck stalled I have a prior complaint number 11443171 same exact thing happened

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Colorado. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 MPH, the ABS fault and stability track light warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that the steering wheel was difficult to turn to the left or the right. The contact drove the vehicle back to the residence and turned off and restarted the vehicle and the power steering functionality. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent. The contact stated that after the last failure, turning off and restarting the vehicle the power steering functionality had not returned. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The contact had researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V213000 (Steering). The failure mileage was approximately 125,000.

Vacuum pump failed and developed a tear almost leading to an accident. Now part of the pump system broke into motor leading to potential engine failure.

The brake pedal suddenly became very stiff with no warning while driving at highway speeds. Braking was very difficult and required me to swerve into another lane to not impact a car and run a red light. I managed to stop afterwards. This was caused by the cam driven vacuum pump failing. No warning of any kind was given.
