Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When I am driving my truck, I will get notifications saying that there is a trailer disconnection issue when I don't even have a trailer connected. It also flashes an alert saying that the lane departure system and pedestrian sensor are being effected. As this is going on, the infotainment screen flashes on and off as well which is very distracting. They have continued to come on in cold weather after I have taken it to the dealership to be looked at. …”
NHTSA complaint #11173410, filed 2019-01, 100 miles“I received notice that there are two recalls out for my truck: a brake system recall and a forward camera/collision recall. Had both recalls performed and immediately the forward camera collision alert, lane keep and intellibeam systems didn't work. Delaer informed me there is a problem with the update and I need a new camera. That is on order and pending. More importantly, about 2 days after the updates the truck showed alerts about the brakes, traction control and stabilitrack systems. …”
NHTSA complaint #11298325, filed 2020-01, 11,500 miles“Back up camera gets fuzzy and has lines going through the screen when I hit the brakes. This is a safety issue as my nephew ran behind my truck and I could not see him.”
NHTSA complaint #11360095, filed 2020-09, 11,090 miles“Rear view camera starting working intermittently. Took vehicle to dealer to repair. Dealer updated software and the problem persisted the same day. Random screen for just the backup camera will be either blacked out or blue stating to service rear camera system. Have taken my vehicle back to the same dealer three separate occasions to resolve this issue to no avail. Now that my warranty is expired they have a fix that will cost me out of pocket. They are offering cost assistance but the problem was never resolved in the first place.”
NHTSA complaint #11362603, filed 2020-10, 27,000 miles“A blue screen with the service rear vision system appeared intermittently when I put my truck in reverse. At first it would go away once the truck had restarted. I had the dealer service department check it out but they said they couldn't replicate it. The camera system is not always in a blue screen regardless if I select camera options from the infotainment menu or if when putting the truck in reverse. The dealer is currently having issues with GM providing the right calibration to fix this issue. When the camera was working, a strange issue occurred in addition to blue screens. …”
