“On star Telematics is not working the issue is effecting GPS and most importantly the adaptive driving system including cruise control system. I have stopped using these services to due an intermittent failure while driving. The adaptive cruise will disengage itself. Also the collision avoidance system will initiate braking randomly. I was told that the replacement parts are not available and or “extremely long wait time”. I’m not comfortable driving this vehicle and have no options but to continue until the lease is up.”

NHTSA complaint #11690100, filed 2025-09

“Front automatic emergency braking has activated abruptly three times in routine following traffic while I was already braking behind a slowing vehicle. It caused a very hard stop and nearly led to a rear-end collision from the vehicle behind me. Please inspect the forward camera/sensors, calibration, AEB settings, and check for any related fault codes or software issues.” This happened on 3/18 while I was getting ready to go onto the freeway and the cars in front of me slowed down I applied the brakes to slow down and the ABS brakes abruptly and strongly I was almost rear ended. …”

“When the vehicle is in one pedal mode, and the car drive is switched to reverse, the car moves backwards and does not slow down contrary to one pedal mode which does not move unless the accelerator is depressed and will slow down when in forward drive. The 2023 Chevy Bolt EUV does operate in One Pedal Mode in both directions. This is a dangerous situation for EV drivers since the car can backup over a person since the car says it is in one pedal mode but it is not functional in reverse. EV's should not have to simulate torque convertors of ICE vehicles since that was a mechanical issue. …”
