| Description of the problem | Occasional loss of power steering was experienced earlier in week which resulted in a near accident with oncoming vehicles while wife was driving to work. The sudden loss of power near on upcoming school area and intersection resulted in the car staying on a straight path during a turn around 20-25 mph until my wife could luckily muscling through the steering to straighten vehicle. The vehicle was brought to dealer and diagnosed with failing or failed power steering rack but a part was not in stock. The 2016 ltz tahoe has now lost complete power steering abilities as we wait for dealer to obtain oem replacement part. |
