What 2017 Chevrolet Cheverolet owners say
Steering
As I was driving, my car decided to just turn off. All of the electronics turned off and I lost ignition. Moments later, while I was still rolling, the car turned back on. This issue has happened multiple times but nothing super serios ever happened and i was able to maintain control of the vehicle every time. Since it is a manual transmission, I was able to stay in gear and continue on. The issue with the steering came after the car turned back on. The "SERVICE POWER STEERING, DRIVE WITH CARE" message came across my screen. I used my scanner to see what the codes are, and it have me a "Power Steering Control Module" C0800-03 code, as well as a "Keyless Entry" U0140, a "Parking Assist Module" U0420 code.

My power steering has a tendency to fail during operation of the vehicle. I have had my power steering cease to function, and become extremely difficult to control the vehicle at speed. Luckily I was on the highway, and able to safely maneuver the vehicle to the side of the highway. I shut the vehicle off and turned it on to see if the power steering would return. On average it takes about 5 cycles for it to return to normal. In the last 6 months, I've had my steering cease functioning about 5 times. The first two times didn't concern me as much because I thought it was random. Only until my steering died 3 times in the span of 2 hours on 20may19, did I suspect this was a serious issue. Apparently GM sent out a TSB on 2014-2016my Chevrolet ss models, but my 2017my was not included yet my vehicle is having the same exact failure according to the TSB for the other my. …
