When the car was in motion and i was trying to turn it would go. all the lights came on the dash board and this is not the first time it did this. this is unsafe and help is needed!
Car just lost power then service light came on telling me about power steering..car wont crank or do nothing...towed to dealership ordered so ething electrcal ckst 8lo.oo dollars..now power s steering not working again car was moving everything shut down
I started the car on tuesday 6-18 to go to work and as soon as i started it, there was a message on the dashboard saying to service power steering and the error light was on. i went ahead and drove to work (only 1 mile away) and it took all that i had to steer it. first chance that i got, i called the nearest dealership and had it towed there, at chevy's expense because the car is still under warranty. when they finally had time to look at it, they said that there was an internal error in the power steering module, they have to replace it, according to law or their guidelines. i've checked several times and they have not been able to find the part anywhere, no dealerships or anyplace else. here it is over a week later and they still can't find anything. they did give me a loaner, but this is ridiculous. they can't even tell me how long it may be.
Service stabili trak warning and engine light came on with no prior warning. the vehicle would not reset, have to take it in for service. the roads and conditions were completely fair. no improper use of vehicle to cause these error lights. vehicle engine sounds horrible and handles terribly
Vehicle was at highway speed when systems began to fail and vehicle abruptly lost acceleration. warning lights and messages began to appear abruptly without warning. rpm, and mph digital dial/ number jumped to 0 and back up to a random speed and then back down to 0. accelerator pedal did not have any bearing on speed control. uncontrolled stalling at highway speed without any warning. vehicle was driven off active roadway at next available exit and parked. vehicle maintained error codes. dealer contacted for tow. after waiting for tow and engine off, all error codes cleared. driven to dealer and currently in service. vehicle fairly new and repair under warranty. problem uncertain but technician pointed to a grounding problem. error lights during incident: power steering warning light (steady on), tcs/stabilitrak warning light (steady on) and check engine light (steady on). plus, vehicle service messages: service power steering and service stabilitrak. i have taken pictures of the instrument cluster. cluster errors began around 13:42 est and cleared around 15:42 est after parking and cutting engine off for some time (maybe 20 minutes) then restarting. also, '.' in place of 'p' in bottom right corner next to odometer reading. also, after initially parking and the first restart, power steering seemed completely inactive.
This will be the third time in 6 months that the car has had to be taken in to the dealership. it displays power steering error, engine light come on and car with drop speed with no warning. it also losses the power steering. it will then start up fine and run, but this time the engine light is remaining on. has happened in the warm and cold weather and after a long drive and a short drive. not sure why there are no other reports of this happening. it has happened when driving at 45 miles and this last time when trying to start it to leave my house. very scary to have your child driving this to and from school.
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 chevrolet trax. while attempting to start the vehicle, the steering became difficult to maneuver. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was taken to grey chevrolet (4949 sw hovde rd, port orchard, wa 98367, (360) 329-2916) where no diagnostic failure codes were found. the failure could not be duplicated. the dealer stated that the steering column needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified. the approximate failure mileage was 3,000.
