Example complaints

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

“When putting vehicle in reverse, the screen for the rear camera will go to full intensity brightness. There is no adjustment for this, as the dashboard lights do not control the screen brightness. It is impossible to see out of the Sideview mirrors with the windows up due to the reflection off of the windows. This is amplified even worse when it is raining at night. GM had a recall for this problem on the previous generation Suburban, and it was corrected by a software update. I have had it at the dealer twice since buying it in June. …”
