Example complaints

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

“When the rear doors are opened on the truck, the interior lights do not come on which is a hassle when securing an infant in a car seat. Further to this, the door ajar symbol on the dash does not come on for either rear door, it does come on for the front doors. I talked to GM about this and they said that since it's a WT model with the base lighting there are no rear door lights or sensors. I found another person with the same model truck where there dealer found the same problem but fixed it.”

NHTSA complaint #11628938, filed 2024-12

“While in traffic over 45 miles per hour, the vehicle placed itself into a hazard mode due to the electric vehicle propulsion system. This happened so fast and the deceleration rate was so quick that it risked a rear end collision. This is the second time this has happened and both were following a heavy rain storm. I drove through a modest puddle that did not even submerge half of the tire wall making contact with the road and did so slowly. Less than five miles later, the vehicle goes into what my service advisor calls limp mode. …”

NHTSA complaint #11674751, filed 2025-07

“Vehicle does not indicate when rear doors are ajar or not properly latched. Vehicle information center shows when front doors or frunk is open. Results are either door swinging open when not properly latched or in my case, as the vehicle does not know that the doors are open, immediately locking the vehicle with the fob in my bag on the rear seat. I disabled the walk away locking feature for now as I only have 30 days of remote services with the vehicle to unlock vehicle from my phone. Vehicle is currently at Chevy dealer for troubleshooting. …”

NHTSA complaint #11625529, filed 2024-11

“Vehicle fails to determine if either passenger or driver rear doors are open. The vehicle is missing some functionality where the door can be opened and vehicle can be driven. My child can open the door and there will be no warning about the door being open. The interior lights do not come on when any of rear doors are open.”

NHTSA complaint #11638821, filed 2025-01

“The rear passenger door sensors are not working on my vehicle as delivered from the factory/dealer. Upon opening the rear doors, there is no indication on the instrument panel/dome illumination as is present for the front passenger doors. With 4 independent doors it would appear to be a possible safety concern as the rear doors could unknowingly be open while driving. …”
