While driving through my neighborhood, my power steering stopped working and caused me to crash into a boulder.
In our truck the power steering has been off and on since 2017. We called and visited multiple dealerships who admitted GMC/Chevy knows there is a problem but our vehicle vin was not associated with any fixes. Since April 2021 we have had zero power steering, also the stabilitrak light has always come on at the time of power steering loss. We have always had to use this truck for work and bought a 4 cyl for that exact purpose because its good on gas. I'm a nurse and travel sometimes 200+ m
