Dear NHTSA, The truck has lost electrical power several times over the past few months but only 3 times while driving. Today it completely shutdown while making a right hand turn at a busy intersection causing the loss of power steering and braking while narrowly missing a car waiting for the traffic light It took both hands to turn the wheel and both feet to push the brake pedal enough to stop on the shoulder. Prior to this latest incident I removed the engine compartment splash pan, checked the starter and ground connections and all seemed well. I then unplugged, cleaned and reconnected all electrical connections in the engine compartment and fuse box. The complete shutting down of a vehicle and its electric system while driving is a very dangerous matter. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Service Power Steering message comes on and off at random time. Almost got into a accident a couple of times. One example is I was getting off the freeway and the exit made a U shape turn. The Power Steering message came on and I lost power steering and it became so hard to steer. The wheel almost jerked out of my hand and almost went straight into the wall had to use my whole body to turn the steering wheel. Checked grounds and connections all that seem good also checked for codes and there were no active codes

While turning steering wheelat low speeds. The steering wheel will jerk out of your hand and lose power. All the electrical power on the dash will go out for a few seconds and return the steering will return.

1. I lost power steering, power breaks, all dash lights/power and I believe air bags. The truck is available for inspection. 2. The first time I was traveling at 65mph in moderate traffic, it was very difficult to pull over to safety. The second time I was traveling at 50mph on a very windy road with heavy traffic. I almost hit another vehicle head on with several vehicles traveling in both lanes. The last time I was backing into my carport and almost bumped I to my house. 3. No, I called onstar the first time, they did a system check and said everything was good. I called a dealership the Second time and they confirmed I had no open recalls and explained it would be difficult to troubleshoot because it was intermittent. 4. I will be calling back to the dealership in the morning to make an appointment. 5. I got the audible chime, the airbag light came on and the "trailer break" message came on the info center. But everything goes back to normal.

Stabilitrac service light comes on and dash lights flicker for a second, radio sound cuts out a second, then power steering is lost until putting in park or restart of vehicle. Just like recalls for other silverado 1500s. Happens intermittently.

I am the owner of a 2017 Chevy Silverado with a little under 50000 miles. I have had an issue with the computer system occasionally re-booting while driving. Also, on occasion, I will get a warning on my display for "trailer braking system" for a fraction of a second. I have mentioned this a several service appointments and inspections, but the dealership was never able to pinpoint the problem. On the morning of Monday, February 28th, I dropped my children off at school, pulled up to the edge of the building and the "trailer braking system" warning flashed for a split second on my display. I proceeded to the stop sign. As I was making the turn into traffic, the computer seemed to have re-booted several times in the period of a few seconds. However, this time, my steering locked in place while making the turn, putting the front of my vehicle just over the double yellow line into oncoming traffic. The doors locked and unlocked several times, several chimes went off, the display flashed a few times, and then, after a couple of seconds, I was able to steer and pull back into my lane. I promptly called Chevy support to report the issue, as I believed this to be an important safety issue that Chevy would be extremely concerned with. I was disappointed to find that the operator was not interested in taking my information, she suggested that I contact the dealership for service, which I already was in the process of doing. I explained that I was calling to report a safety issue to Chevy, not to merely complain, and offered my VIN number. She reluctantly checked the last 8 digits of my VIN number for known recalls and again suggested I call for service. Dealership said that my power steering module needed calibration updates. But, they are not sure that this will solve my issue. I see many complaints like this online and Chevy is not proactively scanning for this computer issue even though it could be deadly in traffic, especially on the highway.

Lost all communication to transmission control module, electronic brake control module, trailer brake control module, broken can bus wiring, lost windows, can NOT DRIVE!

- Kellerton, IA, USA

I bought my 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 certified pre owned on 11/04/2019 shortly after I purchased it I started having problems with it. From brakes to lights. An took it in for the recall on brakes and steering. After that I've not had cruise control, and the stabilitrak warning light has been on. And just about a year ago while driving an pulling trailer, I lost communication to transmission, electronic brake, park assist, trailer brakes, ect. An was forced to stop! After taking it in to dealership to fix it, they did which lasted not even a month and done it again numerous times leaving me stranded. Now just last night 11/23/2021 while pulling my trailer, as I came to a stop sign I hit my brakes and all trailer brakes locked up bringing me to a stop (trailer brake on dash has been set on 0 since they haven't worked since purchased ) I had to unhook trailer wiring to make it home. As I took off I lost communication to transmission again and trailer brake system warning chime kept going off repeatedly, lost dash gauges, causing transmission to get hot. As it was stuck in a certain gear. Your defective wiring/ electrical system has fault and potentially caused a SERIOUS accident, and is going to cost me an enormous amount of money to fix. Also the torque converter has been acting up for a year, forcing me to purchase a tuner just to stretch the life of transmission. This vehicle is NOT safe to drive on highway! This vehicle is life threatening. Putting my life, my familys life and innocent peoples life's in danger! Problem needs resolved or reimbursement/ new truck. A $37,000 truck should not be life-threatening. This truck has spent more time in a garage than on the highway. Solutions have to be done. Why pay for a $37,000 truck you can't use or risk everyone's lives!

While attempting to turn left at an intersection, the power steering locked up after about 2 inches of turn on the wheel. I was forced to abruptly brake. Tried again, still wouldn't turn. Third try, it released. This could have resulted in a serious accident, as I was angled across the on-coming lane and stopped. If I had not braked, I would have went head on into a light pole. I listed my complaint on carproblems.com, and there were dozens of complaints on this same steering issue associated with the 2017 Chevy Silverado, some resulting in accidents with injury.
