GMC Sierra: Steering
Affects GMC Sierra · 2015 — about 9K vehicles.
The hazard
On certain model 2500/3500 HD vehicles, power steering hose clamps may not have been properly attached. This could allow the hose to disconnect from the power steering pump or steering gear, causing a power steering fluid leak. This would result in a loss of power steering assist and hydraulic assist brakes, unexpectedly increasing steering and brake pedal effort and potentially increasing stopping distances and the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the clamps to ensure they are properly attached. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2014-241.
