2025 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Complaints

My 2025 Equinox EV suffers the same issue many others have reported, unsafe glare from the shiny plastic dash piece. It happens during sunup and at night with street lights. This glare creates a danger that easily avoidable with either a different type of windshield or a replacement dash part that is matte finished to stop the glare. GM has failed to address this issue for 2 model years, please investigate this issue for a valid solution. Thank you.

The dashboard on the vehicle reflects on the windshield terribly, making the visibility very poor in certain conditions. This can occur when it's sunny, when there are streetlights, sometimes when it's raining, etc.

The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that while driving 20 MPH, the transmission unexpectedly shifted into neutral(N). No warning light was illuminated. The contact was able to shift back to drive(D); however, the vehicle idled while driving. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 1,060.

While driving, all my displays which includes speed and car warning indicators, went blank and the red light (collision warning) started flashing as if there was something in front of my car, but my car acted fine. I pulled over and then everything slowly came back on. The car continued to run just fine. It was just both displays went totally black and then the red collision warning lights were flashing. Car never turned off. Never had to restart car. No resets performed. Displays came back on after a short period of time. Interesting, the radio and volume had to be turned back on. Acted as if displays rebooted, but did not affect car mobility.

When driving in direct sunlight the dashboard glare is dangerous and prevents full visibility out of the windshield.

While driving my 2025 Chevrolet Equinox, both the digital instrument cluster and infotainment screen suddenly turned off without warning. This blackout lasted for several seconds before both systems rebooted and returned to normal. This has happened multiple times and does not seem related to any specific driving condition, speed, or weather. The vehicle itself continues to operate normally during the blackout, but the sudden loss of all visual information — including speed, alerts, and navigation — poses a serious safety risk. No warning lights or error messages appeared before or during the incident. This issue started shortly after receiving an over-the-air software update labeled GM N25-F172AE. The problem has not yet been confirmed or resolved by a dealer, and the vehicle has not been inspected by police or insurance.

Inappropriately activates forward emergency braking without a vehicle ahead or obstruction ahead. Inappropriately activates reverse emergency braking without a vehicle or obstruction behind. Inappropriately activating forward collision alert without vehicle or obstruction ahead. Gauge cluster display goes black while vehicle is in motion. Hypersensitivity of the left blind spot monitor. Activates without a vehicle or obstruction within the blind spot area. Causes distracting strobing during dark hours. Dealership claims to be unable to reproduce any of these issues. Claims there is no software update available to address these specific concerns nor is there a software update available in general for the vehicle. The unexpected emergency braking has left me stuck in the middle of a normally busy intersection as well as blocking another two lane road when my gauge cluster also turned off with a emergency braking incident and I could not change gears and did not know the parking brake engaged as well due to the display being off as well.

The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle made an abnormal sound. The vehicle was taken to a nearby dealer, where the rear differential oil was drained, and metal shavings were found in the oil. The dealer determined that the rear end assembly needed to be replaced; however, the part was not available. The dealer had ordered the part. The contact stated that the vehicle had been at the dealer for repairs since January 10, 2025. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and recently sent an email, advising the contact that the part was not yet available to repair the vehicle. The failure mileage was approximately 1,600.
