2023 Chevrolet Bolt Euv

The adaptive cruise control as well as regular cruise control limits the electronic braking to 10 kW. After that the friction brakes take over. There is little indication of it, and I think it's a safety risk because in hilly areas, as well as mountainous roads, the friction brakes activate risking overheating the brakes and a brake failure. I believe the earlier model years would not limit the electronic braking and would maintain the speed down hills using regenerative braking exclusively.

When I drive the car the steering binds up. After doing some research they are several vehicles that have this issue. The steering does not return to center and you have to make sure you forcibly turn back to center when driving. I have never drove a vehicle that it would not return to center and drive straight. Please review the complaints on this issue.

I was driving down the street when I suddenly got the following warning lights: red BRAKE, traction control, and a generic warning light. I got the following messages: Service ESC, steering assist is reduced. As soon as I got the warnings, I pressed on the brake pedal to slow done, but it wouldn't move. I was instead able to use the one-pedal driving/regenerative braking to slow down. Without the one-pedal driving, I believe I would've crashed. The problem was confirmed and repaired by the dealer. The vehicle has only been inspected by the dealer, no one else.

The Telematics Module failed at 43,000 miles, 2 years. This shut down everything having to do with GPS, Communications, Super Cruise. I got into an accident, which I feel the car would have responded to, before the accident, if this system was working. The warning was the on star, super cruise, communications, warnings didn't work. On the dash a symbol GPS with red circle and line through it was visible. The Chevrolet Dealership diagnosed the problem and is replacing the module, at my expense. If you do a google search on Telematics Module you will find that this issue applies to all GM vehicles and failure rate is right when the manufacturers warranty runs out, 36,000 miles.

On several occasions, the car has locked the breaks, causing the car behind me to almost rear end me. The forward collision camera thinks it sees an object or another's vehicle in front when there is nothing on the road and activates the breaks for no reason. This has happened approximately 6 times while traveling anywhere between 20mph to 55mph on the freeway. I called chevy dealer and said there are no recalls or any updates that they can perform on the camera as of now. This is a huge safety issue and chevy should be issuing recalls for issue.

The contact owns a 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EUV. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the automatic emergency braking system engaged while there were no vehicles or objects nearby. Additionally, the contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the Super Cruise driver assistance feature disengaged unintendedly. The contact stated that upon attempting to reengage the feature, a message advising that the road lane could not be found or that the contact's face could not be read was displayed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer several times. The dealer informed the contact that the vehicle was operating as designed. Additionally, the contact stated while driving 50-60 MPH on the left lane, the Super Cruise driver assistance feature disengaged unintendedly, causing the vehicle front bumper corner to hit the wall on the driver's side. The contact stated that the driver's side of the vehicle also hit the wall and the vehicle stopped. The contact stated the front driver's side wheel and axle were fractured. The contact hit his head against the driver's side door during the incident and sustained pain, but did not seek medical assistance. A police report was filed, but the contact did not have the police report information available. The vehicle was towed to the dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The vehicle was then towed to Body Works on Grand, Inc.(6134 W Grand Ave, Chicago, IL 60639) to be repaired. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 27,000.

1) What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? - When a car stopped in front of us suddenly, the brakes on the car did not fully stop the car and continued to skid even when the break was pushed all the way down. I believe there is an issue with the EV braking system or software associated with the braking system. While this occurs rarely, this has occurred a handful of times in the last year that we have owned this car. The first time resulted in damage to my front bumper which had to be repaired. 2) How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? - Nobody has been hurt yet. But this is absolutely a safety concern for us. 3) Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? - We brought the car into the dealership in mid June 2024 and they said they found no issues with the braking system. They told me to contact Chevy's main phone number to complain. I tried calling but have not had any luck reaching a person, as I was simply put on hold for about an hour. 4) Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? - This was only inspected by the dealership during a routine service check in June 2024. No issues were found by them. 5) Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? - None that I remember.
