2024 GMC Hummer Ev Suv

While operating my 2024 GMC Hummer EV at a low speed in a school zone, I came to a complete stop at a stop sign and began making a left turn. As I initiated the turn, the steering wheel suddenly locked and became unresponsive. I was unable to turn the wheel back to the right or regain control of the vehicle’s direction. At the same time, the vehicle did not respond as expected when attempting to stop. Because I could not steer or properly control the vehicle, I collided with another vehicle. The impact with the other vehicle is what ultimately brought my vehicle to a stop. During the incident, multiple warning messages appeared on the dashboard, including a message indicating: “Service Steering System.” My vehicle sustained minimal damage due to its height (a bent side step), however the other vehicle sustained damage. Police responded to the scene and a report was filed. I was NOT issued a citation. (see report attached) The vehicle has since been towed to Northwest Hills Chevy/GMC in Torrington CT for inspection by the GMC manufacturer. This incident raises serious safety concerns, as the sudden loss of steering control at low speed could have resulted in significantly more severe consequences under different circumstances. I was in a school zone at dismissal time going to pick up my son. This appears to be a potential mechanical or electronic steering system failure. I believe this represents a serious safety defect that should be investigated to prevent similar incidents.

The vehicle was no longer able to charge, and therefore could be stranded. Yes, the vehicle is currently back at the dealership and available for inspection. Without ability to charge, the vehicle could shutdown and not be able to restart. Yes. It was at the dealer from 6/27 to 8/20 and then the issue re-exhibited on 9/3 and it was returned to the dealership. Yes, it was reviewed by the dealership and returned, only to happen again within 100 miles. Yes, the Service Engine Soon light appears.

This is vehicle number two. Also, please take me very seriously as I was driving the vehicle shuts off and says reduce acceleration. I drive a lot from West Bloomfield Michigan to downtown Detroit. I am having so many issues with my brand new GM vehicles please I need help. Please have somebody call me [XXX] . I love my vehicles as I am a repeat customer for years and years, but this is totally unacceptable especially that I have my kids in the car with me.

Super cruise does not work. It may turn on at random for a minute or 2 and then it shuts off with zero warning and the vehicle almost comes to a complete stop. This is a huge safety concern. I took it to the dealership and they told me that this falls on GM 100% as they are being told GMs engineers are trying to find a fix but for now there is nothing they can do, I am to continue driving it knowing this is unsafe. The turn signals and Bluetooth stopped functioning for no reason which had to be fixed Battery charging module burned up at 300 miles. I asked for a buy back and GM refused. I asked for an engineer to come on site and they refused to set it up unless something else is happening as if this super cruise issue isn’t enough. I filed a complaint with the BBB hoping to get the attention of someone who would actually realize how unsafe this is and that same person from GM lied and said I declined assistance. I asked that lady for help and she stated that it would have to wait until something else happened.
