Details

What's wrong: Electric power steering (eps) assist may be lost momentarily, followed by a sudden return of eps assist.

Why it matters: If eps assist is lost and then suddenly returns, the driver may have difficulty steering the vehicle, especially at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will update the eps module software, free of charge. The recall began October 12, 2018.
