Transport Canada recall 2025144 · manufacturer campaign N252497020

Transport Canada lists: Ats 2017 · CTS 2017 · Camaro 2017–2018 · Corvette 2017

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a problem with the power steering system could cause it to turn off while driving. The power steering assist may return when the vehicle is restarted. Note: This is an expansion of recall N182182760 (Transport Canada recall no. 2019-056).

Why it matters

A loss of power steering assist would result in a sudden increase in steering effort, especially at low vehicle speeds. This could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

General Motors will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the power steering gear assembly.
