Chevrolet Recall 19V-801: Steering – electric power assist system

Affected: 2014–2016 Chevrolet Cheverolet. Filed with NHTSA on November 7, 2019, covering about 476 vehicles.

The problem

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2014-2016 Chevrolet SS vehicles that previously received an inspect-only remedy under recall 17V-382. Corrosion of the connector between the electric power steering module and the torque sensor connector may cause a loss of electric power steering assist.

The risk

A greater steering effort would be needed to control the vehicle if power steering is lost, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the steering gear assembly, free of charge. The recall began December 27, 2019. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or GM customer service at 1-586-596-1733. GM's number for this recall is N192265980.
