2024 CHEVROLET EQUINOX EV Complaints

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!

I was in a parking lot and parking at an EV charger. As I attempted the brake, the vehicle did not respond, so I tried to pump the brake and still no response. It eventually made contact with the barrier in front of the charger. It caused some damage to the front end and several lights are lit up on the dash that aren't normally lit. This took place over the course of maybe 2-3 seconds, so minimal time to react to the brakes failing. The vehicle went over 3k miles earlier that day and leased back in Sept 24, so still fairly new. Have tried calling two Chevrolet service departments and there have been either scheduling issues or they say they do not have an EV tech. Contacted Chevrolet about where to take it to be checked out and they are supposed to get back to me.

The turn signal stalk is not correctly calibrated. When you push up it will properly hold to activate the right turn signal. However, after completing the right turn and it auto releases, many times it will release so hard that it will activate the left turn signal. This leads to a confusion for other drivers as to where you intend to go and could pose a safety risk.

When it is sunny, there is so much glare from the dashboard on the windshield that it's dangerous to drive and is not safe at all. The reflection blinds out the driver and there is no visibility

There is a severe glare on the windshield caused by the dashboard. It make it very hard to see. I happens even at night but is most pronounced when the sun is at a lower angle.

in day time with sunshine , the dash is too much shine making glare backup on windshield , blocked my view 50%, I can not see well for driving , this is safety issue for driver. please help us to recall to GM to fix it. Thank you very much

I had previously activated ACC to use on the highway with the speed set at 65mph. After getting off and driving into a parking lot I accidentally bumped the resume toggle on the steering wheel and the car started to accelerate requiring me to intervene. Luckily there were no vehicles or pedestrians in front of me at the time so I was able to regain control. The owners manual has this information. "To begin using ACC again, press +RES up briefly. If the vehicle is moving more than 5 km/h (3 mph), it returns to the previous set speed." 3 mph activation speed seems problematic for low speed situations described above.

Front dash of car has severe reflection of light onto windshield. This reflection from the dashboard cowl cover interferes with driver's vision and impairs safe driving. We have created a make-do dashboard cowl cover from non-reflective felt to temporarily solve issue, but feel a recall that would install a new dashboard cowl cover is warranted.

There is a severe glare that reflects off of the dash board component. It reduces visibility greatly, and sometimes makes it hard to drive. Other individuals with this car (on forums such as Reddit) have the same issue with this glare.
