While driving the blindside indicators will come on when nothing is there. The window switches and door lock button on the driver side door will not work when the blindside indicators are on. Also the light on the door lock button turns on and off randomly when the indicators are on with nothing there. The doorlock button on the front driver side door didn't work when the truck was in park. Haven't noticed if the windows and doorlock button don't work when the indicators are not on. Andriod Auto wouldn't connect wireless and has been till now.

My infotainment system as well as my driver display system black out and does not have a fix for it. I have had to drive my truck with no speedometer no safety info or system. I use my truck for work. I have no clue even how much gas is in my truck. Everything is controlled through this system.

After starting my 2023 chevy colorado trail boss and letting it idle for several minutes, my blind spot monitors will both illuminate on each rear view mirror for no apparent reason. When this occurs, I am unable to roll my windows down. Also, this issue occurs at random times while driving, seemingly occurring more when braking or decelerating. This issue renders my blind spot monitoring system unreliable to hard to trust. My truck also tells sometimes to service my door latch system when these issues occur. Although these issues seem to resolve on there own, they continue to persist everytime the vehicle is needed or driven. My blind spot monitors, in general, will also illuminate when trees or traffic signs etc. come into view. Also sometimes rendering my window switches useless.

My 2023 Colorado's speedometer and infotainment digital display, which includes my ability to turn on and off my headlights, are both broken and not working. This makes it impossible to know my speed, how much gas I have, or turn on my lights at night. This was my core concern when getting the new 23 Chevy - too much reliance on displays - and it has come true. I have seen on Reddit and other boards that TONs of other users are facing similar issues, and it seems to be because of a botched software update. Please investigate.

Battery was disconnected for 10 minutes and informant system was back online with no issues after that. Vehicle now has 554 miles on it with no problems. The dealership stated this has occurred with a few other 2023 Colorado's.

On April 11, 2024, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened Preliminary Evaluation PE24011 after receiving complaints concerning a loss of brake assist in 2023 MY Cadillac Lyriq vehicles. These complaints allege a hard brake pedal, followed by a “Brake System Failure” message at start up or while driving. GM shared records regarding several internal investigations for loss of brake assist due to alleged spindle fractures in the eBoost system. GM has stated that in the event of a spindle fracture, anti-lock brakes (ABS), stability control, and traction control remain functional until the vehicle comes to a complete stop. At this point, ABS, brake assist, stability control, and traction control functions are lost. The loss of these functions causes the vehicle to set one of three Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) based on failed performance criteria for the Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM). These DTCs, in turn, activate several driver alerts: an audible chime, a visual “Service Brake System” message in the display, and multiple illuminated Malfunction Indicator Lights (MILs) for the ABS, Traction Control, and Brakes informing the driver of loss of functionality. The vehicle speed will also be limited to 70 KPH (43 MPH). Since opening PE24011, ODI has continued to receive reports of loss of brake assist. Some of these reports describe symptoms inconsistent with GM’s description of a spindle failure. These reports allege an immediate loss of brake assist functionality as opposed to the loss occurring after the vehicle comes to a complete stop. The sudden loss of brake assist during a braking event could result in extended braking distance, which increases the risk of a crash or injury. ODI believes further analysis is necessary to assess the potential for failures in GM’s eBoost system to resulting in safety-related outcomes. At this time, ODI is aware of the following vehicles that are equipped with this eBoost system: 2023-2026 MY Cadillac Lyriq, Chevrolet Colorado, and GMC Canyon; 2024-2026 MY Buick Enclave, Envision; Chevrolet Blazer EV, Equinox EV, Traverse; Cruise Origin; and GMC Acadia; 2025-2026 MY Cadillac Celestiq and Optiq. ODI is also aware of 2024-2026 MY Acura ZDX and 2024-2026 MY Honda Prologue vehicles that were built with this system. The Acura and Honda vehicles were manufactured by GM in a joint venture with Honda, and will be included in the Engineering Analysis as peer vehicles. ODI is opening this Engineering Analysis to further assess the safety-related consequences of a failed eBoost system. In addition, ODI is expanding the scope of the investigation to encompass all GM vehicles that share this eBoost system.
