Service trailer brake system indicator.if vehicle exoeriences this condition and stalls while in motion, there could be an increased risk of a vehicle crash.
Truck displays loss of power steering and shuts off everything electrical. When I'm driving at any speeds and turn steering way to fast to either side I'll get message stability trak turned off and followed by radio losing power. Sometimes truck shuts off completely and sometimes truck just acts like it wants to shut off but remains on. There's times where I'll get the message for driver window to roll up and down and windows lose power. I've taken truck to dealership several of times just to lose out on money every time because they haven't fixed the problem and just keep charging.
Vehicle will not start while using the key at times; as if the car battery is dead. Other times it does start; will go a month of no issues and then starts doing it again. Using the remote start works fine.
Whenever pulling into parking lot slowly or reverse parking complete loss of power, have to put in park to restart vehicle. Usually while turning vehicle happens at least once a day.

I remote started my truck and it started smoking from the rear of the crew cab, it went out but left brown snow around it but about a mile down the road the right rear glass exploded and luckily my oldest daughter is forward facing in her child seat and the glass went over or behind her chair. If my youngest was there she would have certainly taken glass to the face and been too young to not put it in her mouth if it didn't immediately hurt her. The vehicle was stationary, the remote start was used and I believe my vehicles rear defrosters were engaged during the remote start.the smoke started immediately and I shut it off to get it to go away and removed them stained snow from the area. The glass exploded about a mile down the road with no other warning sign. I saw online that Canada already has a recall out for this fire/safety hazard and I?M not sure the out of pocket replacement window I get will make the truck any safer for me and my kids.

At low speeds especially when turning, a sudden loss of steering control happens. It becomes really hard to turn the vehicle. Then a few different messages pop up "stabilitrak" and "parking assist is of" and sometimes the truck completely turns off while I'm driving and no matter where I am I have to put it in park and turn the truck back on. This has happened to me about 7 times in the last two weeks.

Truck loses powering steering in slow turn maneuvers. Also occasionally the truck will lose all power and turn off randomly while driving. In addition headlights and panel lights dim when turning steering wheel and braking.
The electrical issue is sometimes the truck will just stop basically there won't be any power whatsoever, everything just shuts down and will not start, we were on tiny town road when it happened and on fort campbell blvd, we had to have someone come with jumper cables and help me start the truck it has done that at least 3 times. When we took it in they said they could T find anything. Also since I got it I have had nothing but issues. The brakes and rotors have been replaced on this vehicle at least 4 to 5 times, when we would take it on the interstate it would shake when we would put the brakes on and so we took it in more than once to fix it. Also there is something to do with the theft deterrent system as well. It just seems there is always an issue and I'm so tired of this truck.
All electronics shutting off while driving (in motion) at different driving locations. Power completely cuts out and car shuts off. Typically when turning. My VIN number not included in recall but doing the exact same thing.
Stabilitrak off window randomly appeared on my dash. Followed by radio shutting off, wipers going erratically, horn honking, steering wheel locked up, and cruise control shut off all as I was driving on a major highway
Multiple times moving at slow speeds the vehicle shuts off and all kinds of warnings pop up. Service power steering, service stabilitrak, service trailer brake controller, check engine light ect. When the vehicle does this it loses all power and the steering wheel violently jerks itself to one side. You can tell when it's about to happen because the power steering will intermittently start to struggle and go out and then the whole thing shuts down. Silverado 2014 crew cab 5.3 with 79500 miles
While backing up or parked steering wheel gets really hard and the lights go dim radio turns off and a sign in the monitor showing steering assist is reduced drive with care

You can tell when it's about to happen because the power steering will intermittently start to struggle and go out and then the whole thing shuts down. Pulling into a parking space at a local gas station it almost jerked me into a parked car. Luckily it hasn't happened at a high rate of speed or it will certainly lead to serious injury or death. There are multiple complaints on the net on multiple forums for this specific issue for these specific models and years. My truck has roughly 44000 miles on it. I feel as if I'm getting the runaround at the dealership. Like I stated earlier this has happened multiple times to me and there are thousands out there in the same situation as me. This is a serious safety concern that GM needs to address and fix.
It is too bad I can not check all that apply! I have the same problems as other people loosing steering and getting the stabiltrack message at low speeds. When this happens you loose all power and the lights all dim. I also have begun to noticed that while driving down the highway in cruise control any turn of the vehicle with the steering wheel kills the cruise control. I also have the trailer, break system message flash randomly at low speeds without a trailer or pulling anything this is just annoying the other problems are major safety issues!!! I have had this truck in the dealership several times had very poor customer service and wasn't even told about the recalls that were on it. However, I don't seem to see any recalls for the problems that I have and that thousands of other people are describing with the electrical issue and stabiltrack at low speeds. I also want to add that the rear seatbelts in this vehicle are complete junk.
When driving down the street every time I slowed down to do a turn or stopped at a stop sign my steering wheel locked up and my truck turned off on its own. It only did this when I slowed down to turn and to stop. It happened 3 times back to back.
Numerous incidents while driving and making a turn into a public parking lot from a 55 mph hwy, all power went off, engine died and just before this steering was very hard to turn, stabil track light has been coming on. GM dealer stated maybe bad battery, I had the new battery checked and it is good
