  • 2023 CHEVROLET BLAZER
    - Monroe, MI

    I am reporting a recurring safety issue with the Forward Collision Alert/Automatic Emergency Braking system on my 2023 Chevrolet Blazer 2LT. The vehicle frequently activates the Forward Collision Alert when there is no vehicle, pedestrian, or other obstruction in front of me. The red collision warning will illuminate and the system will beep even when the roadway is clear. More concerning, on three separate occasions the vehicle has unexpectedly applied the brakes extremely hard while I was driving in traffic despite there being no obstacle or imminent collision. The most recent incident occurred on August 11, 2026. I was making a turn through a busy intersection when the Automatic Emergency Braking system suddenly activated and applied the brakes extremely hard. There was no vehicle, pedestrian, or obstruction in my path that would have required emergency braking. The sudden braking occurred while I was in the intersection and created a serious risk of being struck by surrounding traffic. The braking force was severe enough that my seat belt restrained me very hard and caused an injury to my chest and flew me forward into the steering wheel while also risking the vehicle behind me to almost slam into me. This was not an isolated occurrence. This is the third time the vehicle has unexpectedly applied the brakes hard while I was driving in traffic. In addition to these three braking incidents, I have experienced frequent false Forward Collision Alerts where the red warning and audible alert activate when nothing is in front of the vehicle. I am concerned that the Forward Collision Alert/Automatic Emergency Braking system is malfunctioning and could cause a collision by unexpectedly stopping the vehicle in moving traffic. I am requesting that this recurring safety issue be documented and investigated.

  • 2025 CHEVROLET EQUINOX
    - Lake Jackson, TX

    My 2025 Chevrolet Equinox RS is experiencing critical active safety and electronic malfunctions. While reversing out of my driveway, the vehicle unexpectedly executed an aggressive "phantom braking" event, violently slamming on the brakes with no actual physical hazards or cross-traffic behind the vehicle. The Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB) and Rear Cross-Traffic Braking systems are hypersensitive and falsely triggering mechanical emergency stops, creating an immediate physical hazard and whiplash risk. Additionally, the Google Built-in infotainment system constantly suffers from communication freezes with Apple CarPlay and media apps like Pandora. Commands to select or play audio tracks freeze and fail to execute on the 11.3-inch screen, indicating a systemic software architecture defect affecting the vehicle's dashboard modules. The vehicle has previously been out of service for an extended duration (30+ days)due to a broken telematics module causing parasitic battery drain down to 3 volts, along with multiple dashboard error messages. The manufacturer has been unable to permanently resolve these electronic and active safety failures.

  • 2026 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500
    - Commerce, GA

    Tailgate keeps randomly opening when driving down the road. Vehicle was taken to a Chevrolet dealership for them to address. GM denied warranty claim and will not provide anything in writing. This is a huge safety concern for a work truck that hauls tools and equipment on a daily basis. And the fact that GM will not give anything in writing on the denial is absolute BS.
