Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While my wife was pulling into park the car and pressing the brake, the car all of a sudden accelerated into the building. Pressing the brake failed to stop the car. No person was in the way of the car so no one other than my wife was at risk of injury. The problem has not been reproduced since the car was totaled. The car was inspected by the insurance for loss but that was it. Police and manufacturer have not inspected the car. No warnings were presented prior to the accident.”
NHTSA complaint #11622967, filed 2024-10“Multiple warning lights on the vehicle stating the ABS brake system was not functioning, the letters brake showed by the gauges but it was not the parking brake because I put that on to check it and it was a different warning light. The lane assist was not functioning. In January I had the brakes looked at because they are squealing anytime you use them. The brake shop I took it to told me this is a known issue and the brakes are fine and that there was no way to stop the squealing because my brakes still had 80% of their pad. …”
NHTSA complaint #11760523, filed 2026-08“This problem is with a 2023 R/S/ AWD Blazer: When there is wet slippery snow, and I apply the brakes normally the system immediately goes to rapid clicking of the ABS system activated on the front brakes and I hear no clicks from the rear wheels. From the time of the ABS being activated the front wheels go into a slide and the rear wheels only roll along with no braking action as I have opened my driver's door and watched the driver's rear wheel while activating the brakes. I have been to the dealer two times, and they find nothing wrong. …”
