Not normal and not good. Either have it repaired or have your friends move to a different neighborhood.

You seem to be one of the rare Silveradoes to experience this. This is an assembly problem with late 2014 -15 Sierra models. It's a ground problem. Never heard of Silveradoes having this problem since they were assembled in a different plant.

Looks like GM has finally admitted there is a major issue with these 2014 trucks. They have issued a recall for the exact problem I paid my dealership $500 to supposedly fixed. Any one with these problems needs to take it in to dealer. Nice to know we are driving around in trucks that will lose control at any given turn.

I have a 2015 Tahoe that has been shutting down,steering wheel locks,stabilitrak and parking assistant warning.Almost killed my family at 85 MPH

Chevy doesn't seem to care.They did a recall on the steering assist module,but it continues to put our family in harms way.This is awful.The dealership is doing nothing about it.

I have a 2002 Cadillac Escalade AWD and sometimes when I'm making a turn, ie: turning into a parking space or entering a freeway on ramp my steering tries to lock up! My stabilitrak and brake light are lite up on my screen. I took it to my mechanic, he put his tester on it and the code said it was my Electronic Brake Control Module (this part has been discontinued by the dealer) He found one in a junk yard (cost $500.00) and installed it. The brake lite on the dash went out but the stabilitrak light is still on and my steering still locks up occasionally. When I took it back and he tested it again, the code said the brakes need bleeding, he bled them several times and it continues to say they need to be bled! What could be causing this?

A theoretical situation: What would be your opinion if this happened at 65MPH with your family in the truck? What you experienced can't happen someplace else? Are you sure?

I have a 2016 Silverado and my steering wheel also locks up. Shuts all the electronics in the truck off at the same time. I have to move at a higher speed to bring it out. Only does it in parking lots while flashing parking assist off. It shut off the electronics while doing 60 down the road when I tried to put both front windows up

Check your grounds. Clean them and make sure the grounds are on tight.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By No1UKnow · Posted

      Hello All!   My 2019 Colorado 3.6 LT, 4WD Crew Cab has approximately 77,500 miles and I recently began experiencing the well-known transmission shudder between about 30 and 65 mph. The problem had worsened to the point that I could no longer attribute it to road conditions - and I had decided to bring the truck to the dealer - when recently, I experienced a sudden loss of power while driving at maybe 40 MPH. Several warning lights flashed, the “Check Stabilitrack” message appeared, and the Check Engine, Stabilitrack, and Traction Control icons remained illuminated. The truck regained driving power, but it stayed in a low gear with unusually high RPMs for the speed. (limp mode?) Because I was only about two miles from home, driving slowly, I was able to make it back and run an OBD-II scan, which showed fault codes U0101, P0700, and U0100. My next trip in the truck was to drive it to the dealer the following day. That trip began normally, but after about a mile I experienced another loss of power, along with the same warning lights and the same “Check Stabilitrack” message. As before the truck remained driveable, but again operated at an abnormally high RPM-to-speed ratio and seemed stuck in a single gear. About a mile later, the dashboard lit up once more, this time displaying “Check 4WD.” Soon after that, I arrived at the dealer. I have verified that the truck still has its original factory transmission fluid, which means it has never received the corrective fluid exchange outlined in GM Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355.  That was Thursday of last week and I've heard nothing yet from the dealer.    According to Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355 and the build date of my truck, my truck should have the newer LV fluid. I've done a little research and read something about a problem with the wiring harness as well.   Anyone have an insights into this situation?  Thank you!!

      Gas Prices

      By PhilB · Posted

      Did you even read this article?   Even the title of the article says "U.S.-Iran Deal Doesn’t Mean a Swift Return of Oil and Gas Flows"   Remember, crude oil prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the oil companies.  Gas prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the station.  This article stated that many of the oil producing nations have to restart their processes to get the oil produced.  Then the oil has to be shipped to wherever.  And it doesn't get there overnight.  And most of that oil is not coming here. Check out this site:  https://afdc.energy.gov/data/10621   A graph will pop up to show where the US imports their oil from.  Notice that there isn't a lot of import from OPEC and Iraq.  Most of the US import comes from Canada. The US oil produces are selling their oil on the open market, which is why the US fuel costs went up.  So you're correct, the US oil companies are going to slow walk the price downward.
