1 Assist problem of the 2027 Chevrolet Bolt Ev

Failure Date: 08/26/2026

The brake pedal can easily become disconnected from the electronic brake booster behind the firewall. When this happens, it stops all driver aids. The safety issue is it can happen while driving, and if using adaptive cruise control, or gm super cruise, if one pedal driving is on, it can without warning substantially slow the car, and has the potential to cause an accident. Its not too far to think the dislodging can cause the boost arm to be placed in a position to prevent full brakeing either. I have not taken it in because it is a design flaw of the system I believe. From searching online, I found the assembly, and it lacks a locking pin in the pedal to the shaft as you can see in the service diagram attached. Speaking to someone at a gm dealer they verified the issue on another 2027 chevy bolt, but not reproducible on other gm vehicles with the same electronic brake boosting system.

2 Assist problem of the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt Ev

Failure Date: 08/29/2022

The system in question is the super cruise hands free driving system. There has been several instances where the system has swerved the vehicle without warning or reason. There have been several instances where the system has failed on mapped road. There have been several instances where the vehicle wouldn't drive in the center of the lane, but instead on the lines or too close to other vehicles. I have dash cam footage and cell phone footage of the system failing and can duplicate it without issue. The vehicle spent over 30 days at the dealer and they were unable to fix it. The message that will appear when the system intermittently won't activate is "super cruise unavailable" I have attempted to work with my dealer, gm, and onstar and nothing has been done to take my safety seriously or to fix the issue.
