CHEVROLET Complaints

Hesitate to change gears properly. Engine stalling. RPM will rive up. Sounds like the transmission wants to slip.

The airbag warning light has remained illuminated since I acquired the vehicle in January 2025. The warning light stays on continuously and does not reset. This indicates a fault in the airbag system, and I have been advised that when this light is on, the airbags may be disabled and may not deploy in a crash. The vehicle has also experienced ongoing electrical problems, including lighting failures, blown fuses, and shift-interlock malfunctions, which suggests an electrical system fault affecting multiple safety-related systems. These issues create concern that the airbag control system may be impacted by the same electrical malfunction. The vehicle has not been repaired or diagnosed by a dealer for the airbag issue. The condition is still present and the warning light remains illuminated. This failure creates a serious safety risk because the airbags may not function in the event of a collision.

While driving, the vehicle began experiencing repeated electrical failures including blown fuses, inoperative headlights and brake lights, and the transmission becoming locked in PARK. When the fuse blows, the gear shift cannot be moved out of PARK and the ignition key cannot be removed, leaving the vehicle stuck and unable to be driven or safely turned off. The brake lights and daytime running lights also stop working, making the vehicle unsafe to operate in traffic. This condition has been occurring repeatedly and requires frequent fuse replacement just to move or shut off the vehicle. An emergency override hole on the shifter had already been exposed, indicating the problem existed before and the vehicle was previously being forced out of PARK manually. A tow truck driver had to use this override to move the vehicle. The airbag warning light is also illuminated, indicating the safety restraint system may not function properly in a crash. These failures create a serious safety risk due to loss of exterior lighting, inability to shift, inability to turn the ignition off, and possible airbag malfunction. This failure is consistent with a known defect involving the Daytime Running Light (DRL) module overheating and causing electrical shorts, as documented in manufacturer recall and technical service bulletins for this vehicle. The problem has been reproduced multiple times and remains unresolved.

The check engine light goes on continously and it goes to limp mode. The truck cannot be driven daily and most of the time is in the dealer fixing the updates or computer. It is not an equipment problem but a computer problem.

A few times before engine locked up, i was driving and out of no where it would shut off/lose all engine power and woukd shift to N automaticlly. Those 2 times it happend on the highway had to pull over to be able to turn it on again. The 3rd time it was at a busy intersection all 3 times i was with my wife and kids so was very dangerous. 3rd time it never turned on again with a low oil pressure message. Got it towed to the dealership and they told me the engine was locked up. So now at the dealer getting a new engine and radiator ect.

The forward exhaust bracket weld broke causing a rattling noise and allowing exhaust fumes into the car which is incredibly dangerous.

The right bank lifters collapsed this was back in January of 2020. The right bank lifters were replaced haven't had any issues with the lifters since I did however deactivate DFM and auto stop start and I know that is why there hasn't been any more lifter issues. This complaint was way overdue I should have done it years ago.

My truck has the 6.2l engine that is in recall. I received my letter and took it in for inspection and oil change as recommended (Dec 15, 2025). Less than a month later (Jan 26, 2026) my engine started making loud noises. Got it to the dealership. The claim found metal in oil, spun rod bearings. They did replace engine under recall at no charge but then a week later my check engine light came on. Bad battery control module. not sure if this was due to engine swap, etc.

The engine self-destructed due to a thrust bearing failure as described in General Motors Technical Service Bulletin 25-NA-307 There were no warning lights prior to the engine failure. The vehicle has been inspected by Carl Black GMC in Roswell, GA and been found to fall under the Thrust Bearing Failure TSB According to the service technician, these engines have been failing in large numbers.

Windshield glare is horrible. It can cause distortion of objects. It can cause dizziness. Especially on bright sunlight and when many lights from oncoming traffic reflect off the windshield. I have had to pull over a few times. The dashboard shininess is a real problem. The dealerships don’t want to order the free dash mat unless they “diagnose” it even though it is a known problem and they ignored my concerns when I went in to the dealership even though a free dash mat is offered by GM The fix for this in reality is a new dashboard that will end this problem but that is too expensive for GM. They all say to wear polarized glasses to help. Wrong. That’s like putting a bandaid over a gunshot wound. If they aren’t willing to fix this error I want them to buy me out cuz it’s not a small problem that could result in injury or death if not addressed. The 2026 models have a new dashboard that corrects the problem. This problem has caused me not feel safe and avoid driving sometimes and this is not acceptable to me.
