This is third occurrence. When doing hard acceleration (to merge onto road or pass vehicle) the vehicle would not stop acceleration. Hard braking did not disengage acceleration. Placed car in neutral and applied brakes. When placed back in drive continued hard acceleration. Placed vehicle in neutral and came to stop. Placed in Park and then drive continued hard acceleration. Had to bring to stop and power vehicle off.. Dealer will triage to see if error codes available. They want me to continue driving since no loaners available

GM has stated in their NHTSA recall notice that my vehicle has the potential to burn down my home and has not provided any sort of fix or even a timeline to fix the problem. The recall states not to charge the vehicle in a garage. My home charger is located in the back of my garage and I do not have the ability to charge the vehicle outdoors without spending thousands to redo my home charging system. My garage is under my two story house, meaning a vehicle fire has the potential to destroy my entire home and kill everyone inside. Again, GM has made no offer to provide replacement vehicles or financial compensation for the home infrastructure changes that must be made to keep safely using the vehicle until a formal fix is announced, and any such repair would require being without the vehicle for weeks at a minimum. In summary, in order to abide by the stated interim recall instructions, my vehicle would be rendered useless as I would have no means of charging the vehicle. It is my hope that the NHTSA holds GM to account for their failures regarding this recall.

A life threatening situation in which upon swift acceleration attempt the accelerator pedal was stuck in the down position, the safety of myself, my family who were passengers as well as other surrounding vehicles on the highway was put in immediate danger as vehicle proceeded to accelerate well beyond legal limit. Using the brakes only slightly decelerated the vehicle while vehicle dash displayed maximum power kept being sent to the drive unit. That same day I was unable to replicate the problem as it seems to happen only once per drive cycle. Same issue has occurred on 2 separate occasions during 2 separate drive cycles.

I was driving on highway at aroung 65 mph. Suddently, the driver window glass shattered without any external impact. The glass pieces fell very close the window where it shattered indicating there was no external force. I notified GM but they are not ready to even accept the case telling me that I am lying to them and somebody might have broken into the car.

I have had people following me, and almost hit me when stopped at a stop sign, or waiting to turn left, because the brake lights go off while the car is still being held to some degree by electric motor braking. When driving the car in L mode, one pedal driving, the brake lights come on when decelerating, but when stopped they turn off. The issue is, there is some electrical braking applied when stopped at a stop sign or light, even with no foot on the brake pedal. The car will hold on a slight grade when in L, with no foot on the brake pedal. As far as I understand the law, if there is service braking being applied, the brake lights must be on. I also believe that the electric motor holding back is considered to be service brakes on an EV. I've heard GM corrected this issue on the 2022 models, and I think it should be corrected in the earlier models. Another issue is tall vehicles following close behind me don't see the turn signals because they are in the bumper, mounted very low. I've had people blow the horn at me several times for turning, when they did not see my turn signals. They are working properly, just too low for some vehicles to see when they are close behind. The turn signals are separate and are much lower than the brake lights.
