225/60 R 17 99 H - This tire should be on the recall list. While driving to work (50 MPH), the right passenger tire lost air pressure quickly, resulting in a flat. Tire air pressure indicator on the instrument panel making me aware. The sidewall rupture is the reason for the other tires being recalled by Continental. Inspection of my other tires showed the left front had the same sidewall line but had not yet ruptured. Our safety would have been at risk had we been traveling at a much higher rate of speed on a populated highway. We contacted the dealer, who informed us the tire was part of the Continental recall. We then contacted Continental direct, they advised it was not. My vehicle was purchased new on November 1, 2022 with 100 miles. It's now 5 months old with less than 5,000 miles. The dealer advised they would replace the tire that ruptured at my cost. To ensure the safety of my family and myself, we purchased 4 new tires from a reputable tire dealer we do business with. They inspected all 4 tires.

2022 Trailblazer with approximately 21,000 miles on it. Cruise control fails to engage unless you put your foot behind the break pedal and pull the break pedal forward. This causes safety issues because a person thinks the cruise is engaged but it doesn't actually engage and causes a person to slow on the freeway. Driver also gets distracted trying to troubleshoot the issue because cruise fails to engage without an obvious reason for failure. The fix also causes the driver to operate the vehicle in an unsafe manner because they have to remove their foot from the correct position and place it behind the break pedal to fix the problem. This issue is highly reproducible and was lived with for approximately a year until the solution of pulling the break pedal towards the driver was discovered just last month. Dealer said the issue is nonexistent.
