General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks. The battery positive (B+) cable rings may have been manufactured with excessive glue, potentially causing an intermittent electrical connection between the B+ cable and alternator.

STEERING WHEEL BECAME STUCK IN A LEFT TURN AROUND 70MPH, CAUSING THE TRUCK TO GO FROM THE RIGHT LANE, ACROSS THE LEFT LAND AND INTO THE MEDIAN. THE DEALER IS CURRENTLY INVESTIGATING THE ISSUE. I WAS GIVEN A VEHICLE THAT HAS LANE KEEPING ASSISTANCE AND NOTICED THE STEERING WHEEL FUNCTION WITH THAT FEATURE IS SIMILAR TO WHAT I FELT IN MY TRUCK, EXCEPT, MY TRUCK DOES NOT HAVE THAT FEATURE.

HAD MY TRUCK PARKED FOR 5 HOURS AT MY GRANDPARENTS WENT TO LEAVE AND HAD NO POWER STEERING AND THE SERVICE POWER STEERING MESSAGE CAME ON THE DASH WHEN I STARTED IT IN THE DRIVEWAY. I CHECKED THE POWER STEERING FLUID AND IT WAS FULL. SO I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES AND STARTED IT BACK UP AGAIN AND POWER STEERING WAS STILL OUT. I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AGAIN AND LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES STARTED IT BACK UP AND THE POWER STEERING WAS STILL OUT BUT I WAS ABLE TO STEER EASIER THAN BEFORE SO I DROVE HOME. ALSO AT THE SAME TIME THE SERVICE ESC MESSAGE CAME ON ALONG WITH THE LIGHT ON THE DASH. THE SECOND TIME RESTARTING THE TRUCK THE SERVICE ESC MESSAGE AND LIGHT WENT AWAY. THE RECALL THAT WAS TO FIX THIS ISSUE HAD ALREADY BEEN COMPLETED ON MY TRUCK. I HAVE BEEN HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES AS WELL WHERE THE TRUCK WILL JERK INTO SECOND GEAR AND WHEN SLOWING DOWN FROM 2ND TO FIRST IT WILL JERK AGAIN. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NO BULLETINS ON THIS AND NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I ASKED THE SERVICE GUY THEN WHY DOES THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT ROUGH IF THERE IS NOTHING WRONG? I QUOTE "THE NEW TRANSMISSIONS IN THESE TRUCKS ARE SUPPOSED TO SHIFT THAT WAY".

THE TRUCK WAS DRIVEN TO THE STORE, IT WAS PARKED FOR ROUGHLY 20 MINS. THERE WAS NO ISSUE WITH DRIVING TO THE STORE. UPON RETURNING TO THE TRUCK AND STARTING IT IN THE STORE PARKING LOT THE DIGITAL DISPLAY INDICATED THAT POWER STEERING SERVICE WAS REQUIRED AND ESC SERVICE WAS REQUIRED. AFTER SEEING THIS THE DRIVER TRIED TO TURN THE WHEEL BUT HAD NO POWER STEERING SO THEY TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR TWO MINUTES. THE TRUCK WAS RESTARTED AND THE SAME FAULT INFORMATION WAS DISPLAYED. THE DRIVER TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AGAIN, WAITED ONE TO TWO MINUTES AGAIN, AND RESTARTED. THE SAME FAULTS WERE SHOWN. THE DRIVER REFERENCED THE OWNERS MANUAL IN AN ATTEMPT TO TROUBLESHOOT THE PROBLEM. THERE WAS NO SOLUTION IN THE MANUAL. THE TRUCK WAS THEN DRIVEN BACK TO THE HOUSE 1.9 MILES WITH NO POWER STEERING. THE TRUCK WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER AND RECEIVED SERVICES ONE WEEK PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT. THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT SAY OR SHOW ANY FAULTS DURING ITS SERVICES. HAD THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING AND THE DRIVER DID NOT HAVE THE STRENGTH TO TURN THE WHEEL WITHOUT ASSISTANCE THIS COULD HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.
