Example complaints

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

“Since my vehicle has a software update, my vehicle has had multiple instances of the AEB engaging in instances where it previously wouldn't have. The worst case was when I was in a parking lot turning into a space and the AEB went off when there was no reason for it to. This has also gone off while driving when slowing down at a light when they're was another vehicle in front but I was slowing down as normal.”

“The vehicle will randomly brake on its own. I can be doing 70 on the interstate with no one around and it will disengage cruise and brake hard. It has nearly caused one accident when i had someone following me too closely.”

NHTSA complaint #11687745, filed 2025-09

“We have occasional issues with the car coming to a very abrupt stop for no apparent reason. Typically this will happen when going through an intersection or pulling into our garage. Auto braking has been disabled in the system settings for quite some time, and in fact, each time we get in the car we see a warning that forward anti-collision braking is off. This has happened twice withing the past 4 days and we have concerns that if it continues to be a more frequent issue it will cause an accident. …”

“I was driving South on interstate 55 near Arnold Missouri in adaptive cruise control mode at approximately 65 mph when the car braked suddenly and came to a complete stop on the interstate. Car would not go forward after stopping. Turned the car off and restarted and the car now would drive normally. Have not used ACC since and car has behaved normally. Took the car to dealership in Farmington, MO and they reported no error codes and no recalls. I had driven over 13,000 miles in the car without any incidents previously.”

NHTSA complaint #11706698, filed 2025-12

“The video processing unit in my vehicle stopped working. I lost all cameras all safety equipment in my vehicle. All radar stopped working. I took my car to the Chevy dealership after three days. They advised multiple vehicles have this problem and they were ordering the part. They told me it was OK to drive my car. on my way home from the dealership I was involved in a head-on collision. My car is being repaired, but the body shop stays. This is still not working and they do not feel safe for me to drive it to the dealership”
