My vehicle has lost steering after starting several times over the last week. my info screen displays an esc and power steering message and my steering wheel is locked in place. once the car is shut off and restarted the messages go away and steering is back to normal. i have found a recall related to this on certain vehicles of my year/make/model and also many forums of people having the same issues. however, when searching by vin it says my vehicle has 0 recalls. i have also noticed when my vehicle is stopped, or in park my steering wheel will shake for a moment and then stop.
When driving my vehical all of a sudden the lower stearing went out and all these warning lights come on. it's super hard to steer i have 3 kids that ride in this car everyday and it's very dangerous. also my headlight drivers side has gone out 4 times in the past 6 months and its very expensive to fix!
Power steering has quit working unexpectedly while driving.. electronic traction control has quit working also at the same time.
While sitting idle my steering wheel shakes erratically. sometimes when i start the car the service esc and power steering shows on my dash, when i turn the car off and back on again it will not appear again and the steering is back. the steering wheel shakes while driving if i turn the steering wheel slightly to one side it stops. it seems to happen when it is very cold out.
I lose power steering while i'm driving. i have to stop and restart my car. after driving a few minutes the light comes on and says esc and i lose power steering again.
I was driving and the steering wheel was really hard to steer
Over the past week, my vehicle was sending me a esc service message and i noticed there was something wrong with my power steering. this happens when my car is turned on. the power steering turns itself to manual steering making it hard to turn. i have to turn the car off resetting it to make the power steering work again. while the car is in motion the steering wheel is pulsating and i'm afraid it will go into manual steering. i brought it down to my mechanic and he informed me it was a torque sensor. he then said he did some research and found there was a recall back in 2014 (bulletin 14116b.) this bulletin explains the exact same symptoms my car is having. he called hurd chevy in johnson ri and they told him there was a recall. i then called hurd and they told me there was no recall for my vehicle and there was nothing they could do. i then called the dealership where i bought my vehicle (diamond chevy, auburn ma) and spoke to an advisor named sean. he told me there was a recall but the special extended warranty expired 3/25/19 and ...
Today i lost power steering again (also happened 2 times about a month ago). i was driving in downtown madison wi today when it happened, very unsafe situation. gm's website says there was a recall for some 2009 malibus in 2014, but when i just called gm now they say my vehicle wasn't included in the recall. but obviously, there is an issue with my vehicle. based on all the other complaints on the website, gm should be forced to recall these vehicles again! this time, all of them.
The car will display an esc service light and then the power steering will go out once that happens. when you turn the car off then back on the light goes away and then the power steering will go out again and the esc service will display again.
While driving, i noticed the steering wheel would pulse, especially when turning the wheel left. after about 3 or 4 days, i left work(12/17/19), and "power steering service esc" showed on the dash display. since that time, the power steering has been intermittent. most times it goes out while i'm driving.
Stopped behind another vehicle, when i started moving again there was a severe shudder or vibration. then my car did not want to start moving again. once it did start moving it would not shift out of first gear.
I had a power steering light come one, and my esc light come on. these lights came on with no warning and disable those features while i was driving down the highway, going 57 mph, after a major ice and snow storm. i am unable to control my vehicle while it is on the road.
While driving down the road multiple warning lights popped up on the dash 'power steering' 'service esc off' 'brake light' 'service air bag' and the steering wheel becomes very hard to turn. trying to get the car pulled over to the nearest parking lot to my left i was almost t-boned by another vehicle because the turning process was so hard. after pulling into the parking lot and turning the vehicle off then back on it goes away then all the warning lights pop on again. this time after a few seconds everything on the dashboard goes blank including the radio and then the car dies out draining the cars battery completely.
Lost power while driving on main road at 55 speed zone and car would only do 15 mph finally got to a store and got it stopped and steering was shaking and car shakes when i hit brakes
The power steering goes out and the traction control light comes on and service esc message comes across the message center. i cannot turn the wheel when this happens. i turn the car off and back on and the light goes out, power steering comes back for a second then the light trips again and it's out again as soon as i turn the wheel. this occurs while driving the vehicle at a slow pace.
