2024 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Complaints

My Chevrolet Equinox EV 2RS has glare on the front windshield due to design grille on the area below front windshield. So there is extreme glare depending on the direction of sunlight hitting that area. So I strongly feel this is a security issue for all drivers on the road and GM should alleviate this with a solution. Please advise.

Highly reflective interior glass makes using the side mirrors impossible in common sunny conditions. Unable to see cars and blind spot monitoring light. Incident occurred where I merged into car after straining to use mirror to ensure area was clear. Also, reflection from interior in certina condition make forward visibility dangerous.

- Vehicle showed error message for high voltage battery on 1/3/2025 at less than 5,000 miles. Vehicle was able to drive unrestricted (full speed and acceleration). Vehicle was able to fast charge even though the vehicle was coding for high voltage battery issue. Was informed via Chevy EV that it could be a "glitch" and to continue to drive it, charge it, and see if it would just go away. I did not feel comfortable driving around with a high voltage battery warning and took it to the dealership. Dealership tried to make me drive off lot with it saying it might just be a "glitch" and to call them back if it did not go away. I refused got mgmt involved and was provided a loaner so they could look at my vehicle. - Dealership called me and notified me ,1/6/2025 11:32 AM, that the error was in the thermal management system for the battery. The heat pump that is used to provide thermal mgmt to the battery to ensure safe operating temps had failed. - Safety was put in risk because I park in my driveway which sides up against my house as well as my neighbors house. There is where my charger is also installed. Safety for myself and others was also put at risk. Highway driving increases heat of the battery pack I was told to continue using this vehicle (drive highway daily) which endangers myself in the vehicle and other people around if it caught on fire. - Vehicle was inspected on 1/6 and found to have faulty Thermal system after being told to keep driving on 1/3. - Warning lamp no actual restrictions or information as to what was wrong. GM wanted me to keep driving it.

There is a terrible reflection from the dashboard onto the windshield that under certain conditions, ie: bright sunlight, it really interferes with visibility, making driving rather dangerous. I've read of many complaints about this same problem.

The turn signal stalk, when self-canceling from a right turn, will drop too hard, and will turn on the left turn signal after the turn, causing confusion to not only the vehicle operator, but other drivers on the road. This has happened on multiple occasions.

The angle and possibly the material of the windshield catches a glare/reflection of the dash that heavily affects visibility for the driver. When there is a bright light shining on the dash it is almost impossible to see past the glare. This can be a real hazard as this obstructs the drivers view of the road.

I was driving at a speed of 15/20mph on the snowy road with the AWD activated, suddenly the car lost control and started going from one side to the other, crashing several times against the sidewalk, covered in ice. The fear that caused me was horrible, to take it back was very difficult, the car had no control even at 10 mph. The application diagnostic indicated Antilock Braking System and StabiliTrak® Stability Control System. I do not feel safe in this 2024 Equinox RS

I bought a new Chevy Equinox EV on 12/13/24. The day I bought the car, I found that while driving home on interstates and other roads listed by GM as mapped for Supercruise, the system will work for a few minutes, then cut out. There is no warning in advance of this shutdown. When all this happens the car immediately brakes in the middle of traffic and loses steering control, red lights go off, and the driver must quickly assume control to prevent a crash. After it happens, the car pops up a message that the ACC is also unavailable. Then another message that Forward Collision Detection is also unavailable, at which point the whole Supercruise system shuts down until the car is turned off and restarted, and then the whole cycle is repeated. This even happened once in the middle of an automated lane change. It's extremely dangerous. I brought in to the dealer service the following Monday, 12/16/24. The dealer service dept. confirmed the problem and contacted GM, which responded that they were aware of the problem and had engineers working on it. They would not provide any timeline for when a fix would be available, but looking online, this problem has continued for many months with no solution. It apparently does not affect all cars, but there are plenty of reports online of cars that it does affect.

This was new vehicle in the dealer parking lot with 215 miles on it. I took it for a test drive with the sales person in the city next to me on the passenger seat.I was on the interstate with adaptive cruise control on. When the electric breaks failed and all kinds of information popped up on the screen. The display screen toggled between, "Brake System Failure - 62 MPH Top Speed" and "Service ESC". Fortunately, interstate was not too crowded. I could sense that it took a great deal of effort effort to slow down the vehicle. So luckily there was an exit coming soon. So exited the interstate and found a shopping center parking lot. Was able to slow slowly pull into the parking lot And pull into a spot with great difficulty. Turn the car off and turn the car back on and the arrow is disappeared, and the car began to function normally.

There is excessive reflection from the dashboard onto the windshield in bright and sunny conditions, making it extremely unsafe and nearly impossible to see. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW! SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET INJURED OR KILLED IF NOT ADDRESSED!
