2015 GMC CANYON Complaints

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR IN THE GIANT EAGLE PARKING LOT AND THE POWER ASSIST FOR THE STEERING STOPPED WORKING. A NOTICE CAME ON THE DASHBOARD SCREEN INDICATING THE SAME AND STATED THAT THIS MALFUNCTION COULD CAUSE A CRASH. I STOPPED THE CAR, TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, AND RESTARTED THE CAR. THE NOTICE ON THE DASHBOARD WENT AWAY AND THE STEERING POWER ASSIST FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. I DROVE THE CAR FOR A WEEK WITHOUT RECURRENCE. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT THE GMC DEALERSHIP AND AFTER LOOKING AT THE VEHICLE THEY CONCLUDED THAT THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM SINCE THE STEERING WAS OPERATING PROPERLY. I HAD INDICATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL NOTICE NHSTA REFERENCE #S 15595 AND 16V054000 COVERING A POTENTIAL STEERING ASSIST FAILURE BUT WAS TOLD THAT THESE RECALL NOTICES DID NOT APPLY TO MY VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO ME WITH INSTRUCTIONS TO BRING THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE THE NEXT TIME IT HAPPENS.
