“The sound in the vehicle goes silent and I'm not able to verify audibly that my turn signals are working or not. Which has led to a couple of near misses while in traffic. Power has been cycled and the call hang up botton has been depressed to soft reset the system and it still isn't working.”
NHTSA complaint #11731027, filed 2026-04“I pulled into a parking spot and the car died right before I shut it off. I came out and restarted it to leave and it backed up about 5 feet and died and would never start again. There was never any prior indication that it had any problems. I bought it new and always had a Chevy dealer do the required maintenance. I was told today that it would need a new engine because the engine has seized up; however, until they do a full tear down of the engine, they said they cannot tell me exactly what has cause the problem. …”
NHTSA complaint #11650764, filed 2025-03“Dear Chevrolet Customer Assistance, I am writing to formally report a serious safety incident involving my 2023 Chevrolet Suburban and to request an investigation by General Motors. My vehicle unexpectedly locked while the key fob was still inside the vehicle. Most concerning, my baby was also inside the vehicle at the time. I was unable to regain access to the Suburban, and because my baby was trapped inside, I had no reasonable option but to break a window to gain immediate access to her. This was an extremely serious and frightening situation. …”
NHTSA complaint #11764159, filed 2026-09“Sun Roof has leaked.

And that is a reoccurring problem that is commonly not fixed properly by the dealers This causes a safety and health issue as well as an unacceptable vehicle defect. …”
NHTSA complaint #11718698, filed 2026-02“I drove a 2019 Ford Explorer with Ford Sync, which integrated well with my Android phone to allow handsfree access to Google Maps or Waze for navigation, voice control of my phone for speech-to-text, simple Google queries, like who wrote the song American Pie, etcetera. Steering wheel controls could also be used to make or disconnect phone calls. It was a very safe, efficient, satisfying, hands-free driving experience provided at no-cost. Unfortunately, I traded that vehicle in on a 2023 Chevy Suburban, which has an Android Auto based infotainment system. …”
