At the time of his passing, the Firepower actor was surrounded by his children, life partner, and attorney.
Insiders have revealed that Chad’s health decline began after an injury a few years ago, which led to gradual organ failure, ultimately causing his death.

He wrote: “His remarkable journey as a loving father to us, along with his unwavering commitment to our mother, truly exemplified a life filled with love and dedication.”
In his post, Steven highlighted how his father’s love for racing had a lasting impact on him. Chad’s passion for motorsports, which he inherited from his legendary father, Steve McQueen, shaped his own life. “He passed his passion, knowledge, and dedication down to us, and we will continue not only his legacy but our grandfather’s as well [sic],” Steven penned.
