My son was making a left onto a freeway on ramp after traffic cleared and the steering wheel completely locked up resulting in him going over the curb and rolling completely over in a steep ditch. This occurred at a low speed (no more than 25mph), confirmed by the Life369 app. My son's description was that it felt like the wheels were against a wall and the wheel wouldn't turn even though he was using both hands in an attempt to turn. My son said there was no warning lights or any other indication that he noticed, other than the complete locking up of the steering. The resulting rollover into the ditch has totaled the vehicle so it was not inspected by any collision shop. I attempted to check the steering in the tow yard but the vehicle had no power.

No warnings of any kind went off; I wasn’t even going 2 m.p.h. and hit a piece of wood that was right on the edge of the grass next to the road at the park. This is dangerous, especially at a park or other places where smaller children are present if I get that close to something and the none of the sensors go off letting me know there is something/someone that my vehicle could strike if not careful. I have not had it looked at yet, but plan to. No warnings of any kind have went off and it was functioning properly prior to this. There is severe damage to my vehicle

When I bought the vehicle new from dealership, they told me that side blind zone alert was not available at that time due to a semiconductor shortage, but that it would be available and could be retrofitted after they were available. I noticed that the 2022 retrofit had been authorized, and I need to know when I will be able to get this option retrofitted on my vehicle. It has horrible blind spots, and I have to literally turn around completely to see if there is anyone in the blind spots which is very dangerous because I’m taking my eyes off the vehicles in front of me to see the blind spots. This is dangerous in city driving where you are going 70mph in 4-6 lane traffic, almost bumper to bumper. If someone hits the brakes while I’m checking blind spots, then that could cause a wreck. I have all the other driver assistance, so the front braking will brake, but it is not a good idea for that to happen when someone is riding on your rear when the brakes slam on. I know I’m unique because I only see out of one eye at a time, but I believe this would still be a terrible issue for anyone trying to drive in traffic. I know the assistance packages don’t replace human interaction, but I do rely on those options to help me because of my eye condition. I told that to the dealer when I purchased this vehicle and they assured me that it was just a result of the shortages and it would be available for retrograde. I have called the dealer three or four times to check on this because at first they told me I was on the list and they would call me when the chip came in and they said it would be a few months. Well it’s been over a year and when I call now, they say it isn’t available and I asked them if I could just purchase the system myself instead of waiting for the recall, and they said I probably couldn’t afford it or it be worth it. I have looked on your site and others and I’ve seen nothing about it being in the works, so I want to report it so maybe you will look into it.
General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2020-2023 Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles. The four rear-seat lower child seat LATCH anchorage bars may have excessive powder coating, which could prevent a child seat from being installed with the anchorage bars.
