Steering assist reduced (fixed)


Recommended Posts

Mine came on today.   Last week I was in 4 wheel drive when I parked.   When I started the truck I tried to switch back into 2WD and the DIC said "Service 4 Wheel Drive."   I would not change back to 2WD.  I then (after some google) put in N and switched to 4 LO.   It shifted.   I then was able to move to 2WD.     

Was fine for a little over a week.   Then today I got:   "Service Stabilitrak".  and... "Steering Assist Reduced,  Drive with Care".   The truck is at the dealer.   Been most of the day.   Still no word.    2017 1500 with 14,000 miles.

I responded in your other thread.  These are known issues.

Known issues? Nobody told me.....

oh, I guess my 2wd wouldn’t have that issue.

Your 2WD wouldn't have the issue of not shifting out of 4WD but you could still have the bad ground/low BCM voltage issue.

Hopefully you don't because it can cause a lot of problems from just throwing codes all the way to ripping the steering wheel out of your hands!

I have a 18 Sierra with the "steering assist" warning. no other lights, i got a loss of comm from the steering wheel angle sensor. i replaced said part and still having the issue. was told it needed to be recalibrated? No other issues as others are experiencing. Thanks for you help
