CHEVROLET Complaints

Sometimes, when driving in a turn, either direction, and hands are released from the steering wheel, the vehicle does not return to center. Force is required to cause the steering to begin returning to center. Once it begins returning to center, seems to always continue to center. This is a dangerous departure from decades of common vehicle operation. An unsuspecting driver can drive into an obstacle or people.

While driving the vehicle I began to hear a ticking noise in the engine (lifter tick) and the check engine light came on. The vehicle began to lose power and started shaking. I stopped the vehicle and turned it off and restarted it and began to drive as I was not far from home. I found that the vehicle did not have full power and was not firing on all cylinders. After getting the vehicle home a diagnostic code showed cylinder 2 was not firing. The vehicle was towed to the dealership who confirmed there was a bad lifter and roller that dug into the camshaft. The sudden loss of power and shaking of the vehicle while driving is the safety concern. It seems that this is a common problem with these engines that GM is aware of and has failed to address.

The brakes have stopped working properly. I have to use my entire force and press the brakes so hard to stop.

Had safety recall for loss of power steering repair done in November of 2021. First incident: Leaving a grocery store parking lot, loss of power steering made the steering nearly impossible at low speeds. Message on display said to have steering serviced and dinged. Had a tow truck come and take it to the same dealership that did the repair. Low voltage code was reset, power steering was returned. Dealership wanted $2.3k to repair. Second incident: One month later, pulling out of my driveway when the same message displayed and the dash dinged. Had a tow truck take it to a different repair shop, same issue, same resolution. $2.4k repair. I declined both repairs.

When I try to accelerate some times my truck doesn’t go. It’s like it’s not even in drive. The check engine light is on and the dealership that I bought it from told me just to drive it because they don’t have a loaner vehicle at this time. That it won’t hurt the vehicle to drive but it’s unsafe to drive. I step on the gas and it doesn’t go. I could be hit if I’m trying to move when in traffic. Also my truck only had 5200 miles on it when this started and I’ve only had it since 16 July 2025.

* Sudden Catastrophic Engine Failure. * The car lost power in the middle of a high traffic, very dark country road, forcing her to stay in the middle of the (undivided) road in the dark hoping cars didn't slam into her. A Collin County Sheriff was dispatched to keep her safe until the tow truck arrived almost two hours later." * The vehicle was towed to a dealer where they confirmed that the torque converter, valves, lifters had failed. Dealer didn't disclose that there was any issues for these engines, which there is. It's a 6.2L V8 Tahoe High Country. * It has only been inspected by the dealer, not the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, etc... * The vehicle indicated a traction control problem, then the engine light came on, and then the engine failed followed by loss of power. All happened in rapid succession WITH NO OPPORTUNITY FOR THE DRIVER TO GET TO A SAFE LOCATION. * There was no warning or other symptoms preceding this. The vehicle has always been faithfully serviced at Chevy dealerships consistent with the manufacturers recommendations.

The “service ESC” light came on while I was driving on the freeway causing the steering wheel to lock up and I couldn’t turn the wheel. It was really stiff after it said “Service ESC” and “ESC Off”

To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this complaint regarding my **2024 Chevrolet Blazer** and the handling of my case by GM, GM Financial, and affiliated dealerships. In **sub-zero temperatures**, the heating system in my vehicle completely failed while I was transporting my **newborn child**, creating a serious safety concern. I immediately sought assistance at **Moran Chevrolet**, where I was denied service, told no loaner vehicles were available, and advised to continue driving the vehicle despite the dangerous conditions. Out of necessity, I drove over **30 miles** to **Al Serra Chevrolet**, where my vehicle was finally taken in. I was provided a **gas-powered loaner** and was explicitly told that fuel expenses would be covered through **GM Executive Concierge**. Unfortunately, my experience with GM Concierge has been unacceptable. I was assigned a representative but have **never spoken to her live**, despite numerous calls and clear communication of my availability. I have spent **hours** attempting to obtain reimbursement and assistance, without resolution. My vehicle is now **back in the shop**, and this matter remains unresolved. Additionally, although I have paid my vehicle payment to remain current, I am requesting **reimbursement of this payment**. This expense was incurred as a direct result of GM’s failure to provide timely service, a comparable loaner, and effective concierge assistance during a documented safety-related vehicle failure. I paid under necessity to mitigate further harm, and reimbursement is appropriate to fully resolve this matter. I am requesting: • Reimbursement for fuel expenses related to the loaner vehicle • Reimbursement of the vehicle payment made under necessity • A written explanation for the concierge communication failures • Assurance that safety-related failures are handled promptly • Confirmation that this complaint has been escalated
