ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. VEHICLE IS A 2016 CHEVROLET TRUCK WITH 25,852 MILES. A VERY DANGEROUS THING TO HAPPEN WITH A MALE DRIVER. I SHUDDER TO THINK WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPEN IF THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER STEERING HAD HAPPENED TO MY WIFE ON A CURVY ROAD. GM HAS RECALLED 1 MILLION PLUS 14-15 GM VEHICLES OVER THIS PROBLEM. THEY SAY THE 2016 IS NOT IN THE RECALL. THE $1,500 PLUS DOLLAR COST IS ON ME. WHY IS GM BEING ALLOWED TO CONTINUE SELLING VEHICLES WITH ELECTRONIC STEERING?
