2021 CHEVROLET TAHOE- Saint Paul, MN
While driving my 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe at highway speeds (approximately 60 mph), the transmission suddenly malfunctioned due to what the dealership is telling was a valve body failure. Without warning, the vehicle lost proper propulsion and began to decelerate rapidly in active traffic. I did not receive adequate warning before the failure occurred. The sudden loss of power at highway speed created a very dangerous situation. Vehicles behind me had to brake abruptly, and I was nearly rear-ended. This presented a serious safety risk to me, my three children, and surrounding drivers. The issue was later diagnosed as a transmission valve body failure. A failure of this nature should not occur on a relatively new vehicle, and there Is currently a recall on other 2021 Tahoe’s for this same issues. My car is sitting at the Chevy dealership waiting for a full valve body replacement, which the dealership said they are having issues getting the part and will take over 2 weeks. The cost is around 5k to fix.

The onstar module failed. Also controlling the pedestrian px Proximity sensor and crosstraffic sensor. When driving slowly waiting a parking lot the vehicle locked up on the brakes with the warning message pedestrian alert. The area was clear. No pedestrians were in the vicinity This would be the 3rd incident 1st was cross traffic already braking while entering a light only at a speed of 15 mph. 2nd was the cross traffic and 3rd was the pedestrian alert.. We discovered the onstar module contrs all of these functions. Contacting the dealer theu stated the module need to be replaced but there is not an ETA on the part arrival as this is a common issue with all vehicles that contain. This module. We are scared it will happen if a driver pulls in front when in traffic or put us in a precarious even deadly situation

2024 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER- Virginia Beach, VA
The 2024 Trailblazer developed a problem going into reverse at less than 17500 miles in December of 2025 when my daughter came home for Christmas. It would slam into reverse or freeze and then shift harshly. The selling dealer replaced the valve body in the transmission while it was in for normal service, the valve body was on order for 30 days in January. After I delivered the car back to my daughter on January 26, 2026 which was 4 hours away in Northern Virginia the transmission continued to freeze and slam into reverse. The selling dealer advised not to drive it back to Virginia Beach, VA. The car was then dropped off at an Arlington, VA dealer and was there for 9 days. The servicing dealer said they could not duplicate the situation and returned the car after 9 days. My daughter stated that the transmission has continued to act up in reverse with freezing and slaming while trying to reverse in real world settings. The Trailblazer was dropped off for a 3rd time on Saturday, February 21st and since then we have not heard a word from the dealer. I called Chevrolet Customer Service and they assigned a case number to the problem with the transmission. The case number is 89420437 and Sarah at Chevrolet said she would be in contact with my daughter by Sunday, March 1st.

2023 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN- Chesapeake, VA
The drivers side, female end, of the seatbelt comes undone when cold. This is reproduced every single time it is cold for approximately 5 minutes of driving until the inside of the vehicle warms up. This happens with both primary divers of the vehicle. We took it to the dealership we bought it from but because there is not a current recall and they cannot reproduce the issue since our current temperature is in the 40s, they won’t replace it under warranty. No warning systems go on when this happens while driving.
