Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The vehicle seemingly at random, will engage automatic emergency braking. These events are hard braking events, locking up wheels and engaging ABS for brief moments at 75mph. There is no sensitivity adjustment, forcing the safety features off to ensure I am not rear ended. In my first month of ownership, we have experienced: 1) backing out of my garage in good weather and into my driveway (flat surface, no hills) causing whiplash. 2) inside turning lane of a 2-lane left turns, presumably detecting the outside lane vehicle, stopping in the middle of an intersection instantly. …”

“After Super Cruise disengages and applies the transition brake, the brake pressure sometimes doesn’t release. The vehicle remains partially or fully braked and won’t roll freely for up to 30 minutes while on a freeway or highway. We are able to move the car to the side of road when this happens but slowly. In one case we attempted to exit the freeway and the breaks got so hot they locked up in the middle of an intersection and the police department had to direct traffic around us. When this happens the warning lights are “rear cross traffic unavailable “ and “forward collision unavailable”. …”

“Good day, We purchased our 2024 Chevy Equinox EV a month and a half ago. The issue we are having is very concerning. The vehicle will suddenly come to a complete stop at unexpected times. At first, it happened 3 times while we were backing up. There was no object in the road, no warning beeps, no shaking of the seat. It simply stopped very suddenly and would not back up anymore. I had to put in in park and then again in reverse to have it move again. It’s one thing doing this while slowly backing. Last night it did it again as we were pulling into a parking spot, while in Drive. …”

NHTSA complaint #11640200, filed 2025-02

“What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The forward collision warning and rear collision warning systems malfunctioned, causing the vehicle to brake unexpectedly when there was no obstacle or threat. Yes, the vehicle is available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The vehicle braked suddenly and forcefully without cause. This created a risk of being rear-ended in traffic, nearly caused an accident, and also risked injury to my dog who was inside the vehicle during one of the incidents. …”
