2025: “My GPS, OnStar and all other cruise control features have stopped functioning. The telematics module has failed within the onstar system. It is preventative by me from getting from place to place safely due to the gps not tracking correctly. The part has been on back order for over a month for me already. And I have no timeline to get a new one.”

There were no vehicles in front of me or behind me, and there were no apparent roadside objects or other conditions that should have presented a collision hazard. Without warning, the vehicle displayed a Grab the Wheel warning. My hands were already on the steering wheel at approximately the 10-and-2 positions. …”
