NHTSA recall 16V160000
Steering · General Motors, LLC
Details
What's wrong: Corrosion of the connector between the electric power steering module and the torque sensor connector may cause a loss of electric power steering assist.
Why it matters: 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 on May 11, 2016. Owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts become available.
