“Back up camera is fuzzy at night and is very dangerous to use when backing up. Using it at night has resulted in almost being in an accident on two occasions. I took it to the Chevrolet dealer today and they said it needed no repair at this time and it met GM specs. It has been this way since I bought the truck and does it every time you back up at night.”
NHTSA complaint #11302233, filed 2020-01, 40 miles“When using the backup camera at night, it goes into full brightness blinding myself and all passengers. I cannot use the mirrors to back up my trailer because it is extremely overwhelming. I have covered it with a t-shirt so that I can actually see. There needs to be a way to turn it off but I cannot(literally tried every short of removing the fuse. Happens every time I drive so I am putting my purchase date.”
NHTSA complaint #11325970, filed 2020-05, 100 miles“When I hit the brakes while moving in reverse, my backup camera glitches or gives an error to service. This could prevent me from seeing something behind me while backing up. This has been a problem since purchasing. Chevy dealer looked at it but was unable to fix.”
NHTSA complaint #11361991, filed 2020-09, 500 miles“Repeated attempts by jones chevy, sumter sc, they have not identified the vibration problems with my new vehicle. 22+ days in repair, multiple visits, and GM classifies harsh vibration as normal characteristic and closed the case, saying its final. I have contacted GM ceo with certified letter, discussed with exec. Customer support team, and posted on social media to find any solution. Gm customer service is the worse I have ever experienced. …”
NHTSA complaint #11290894, filed 2019-12, 5,000 miles“The transmission shifting from 1st to second gear has about a 5 second delay and then is a rough shift into 2nd. Only happens when the vehicle is cold from sitting for a long period like over night. After the one hard shift it doesn't do it the rest of the day. Done it since purchasing it in sept 2019. It's like it lags after you wake it up and hasn't had its coffee yet. Does not matter if I back down my driveway first and then into drive. The first shift of 1st to 2nd has a lag and its rough into 2nd.”
