Vehicle looses steering at low speeds. Previously had a extended service campaign that they never had parts for. Expired now but a recall on other same make and model of the same year. This is a serious safety issue and needs reexamined. Called GM and they are not concerned about loss of steering. Was driving and had to make a turn at 5 mph lost power steering and signal chimed. Was unable to complete turn almost caused accident on city street.

The car was under recall for a couple issues which they fixed except for the electronic power steering torqe sensor, they installed the part but said they could not program the part due to another problem. So I couldnt afford for them to diagnose it plus pay to fix it so I checked it out and discovered that just a fuse had blown. I replaced it and headed back to the dealership, dropped car off and then was contacted hours later saying that they were not going to finish programming the recall because they already tried once and I would have to pay now? in my mind a recall is a recall till it is fixed! the vehicle is still unsafe and I feel they should still be responsible!

I was driving to work on the freeway and I accelerated to merge into traffic I slightly turned the wheel to the left and it went to the right and the faster I tried to go it was going all over the road from left to right.I didnt have much control so I decided to get off the freeway and go back home.

I'm stationary position my steering wheel automatically turns 90 degrees to the right and vibrates back and forth. If I turn it to the left and let go, it automatically turns right. When I'm driving, it does the same thing but not as bad. If I let go of the steering wheel while driving down the highway it will turn right then turn straight almost like a zigzag pattern. Eventually power steering will go out and I have to pull over, shut my car off and start it back up to reattain power steering. I contacted Chevy customer care and they said they can't fix the recalled problem because the service was already performed earlier in the car. (figured they would have a warranty on their own part)they refused to help with any cash assistance and due to having 200K miles on it they will not fix it in any way. It's a known issue in my year of car.

The steering wheel shakes by itself even when parked and idling. When starting the car up the alarm comes on (ding, ding, ding) and the power steering is no longer. I have to turn the car off and restart it. This has gotten worse and am having a mechanic look at it but in my eyes this is a manufacturer issue based off of the research I've gathered online. Most mechanics I brought it to never have seen this problem before.

No power steering. Its like there is no steering at all. Hard to turn.

- Chatsworth, GA, USA

My 2005 Malibu is experiencing intermittent failure of the power steering assist, and a related "jerking" in the steering wheel which stops when the power steering goes out. Sometimes the power steering is out when the car is started, but other times it has happened while driving. If this were to happen during a turn or on a curve, it could possibly cause an accident. I didn't own the car at the time, but it was serviced under the March 2014 recall for this exact problem in November 2017. Because of this, and because the warranty period is over, GM is unwilling to give further assistance for this dangerous fault.

Power steering started failing. Usually it would come back if I restarted the car. Today it has failed and not returned. Usually seemed to fail when I first started the car, but later it seemed like it failed as I drove the car.
