“Chevy of Wasilla, AK did not properly inspect a safety recall for the rear parking brake harness. After I showed the dealership the pictures of the holes in the brake harness, I was told that the holes in the brake harness is a feature to let water out. Pictures are attached of said holes in brake harness and text message with dealership representative.”
NHTSA complaint #11710800, filed 2026-01“Auto hold was on, radar cruise control was set and as I was merging in traffic a sharp smell of burning started. The cruise control refused to disengage until I parked the car in garage. Eventually burn smell ended but seems like brake was stuck while acceleration causing a burn smell. It seems like brake could get stuck to wheels perhaps when auto hold is on even when driving? Auto break hold is a feature which keeps the break on while car is stopped.”
NHTSA complaint #11773103, filed 2026-10“On 10/29/25 I brought the vehicle in to Richard Lucas Chevrolet due to the alert from my insurance co that there was a recall with parking brake system. The dealership checked the car and told me they had to order the part that was needed due to the recall. Prior I also made the dealer aware that the car had recently stalled on me in the middle of the street, I was told by the dealership that this was apart of the recall! The dealership allowed me to drive the car and stated to me that they would call me when the part comes in! …”
NHTSA complaint #11724820, filed 2026-03“On October 2, 2026, while driving my 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV AWD at approximately 55 miles per hour, I approached a stop sign while traveling downhill on a wet road. I had let off the gas and had slowed to about 35 mls per hour before I applied the break. The road was wet from rain, but I did not believe the vehicle was hydroplaning. They rain had stopped and roads were only moderately wet. I applied the brake pedal normally and continuously held the pedal down. I did not pump or release the brake pedal. The vehicle appeared to activate ABS. …”
NHTSA complaint #11769175, filed 2026-10“Since buying the car in 2024 I have experienced multiple incidents where the system hard brakes for no reason, including times while driving. The emergency recall on this vehicle was repaired last year and since that repair this issue has occurred 2 more times, once earlier in 2026 and then most recently as yesterday despite claims by GM the issue has been fixed. My daughter currently drives this vehicle and is afraid she is going to get into an accident because of this issue. I tried to initiate a buyback but due to the miles on the vehicle GM would only settle for 4k.”
