Equipment problem #1

While driving down the high way with the check engine light on, a message appeared on the screen and said “unable to shift soon. Service transmission immediately. ” after driving a few more miles the vehicle shifted to neutral, and then as soon as I got on the shoulder of the highway and slowed to approximately 5 mph, the vehicles wheels locked up and the car jerked aggressively into park. This exact issue has occurred multiple times while driving. It is unsafe to drive the vehicle.

Equipment problem #2

My 2022 Chevrolet Suburban 6. 2l, approximately 96,000 miles. Vehicle was taken to dealership for transmission warning message and returned as “repaired” with a software update. The following day, February 12th, while driving at highway speed on the expressway, the vehicle suddenly lost power without warning. A message appeared instructing me to press start, and the vehicle shifted into neutral and stalled. No warning lights were illuminated prior to the stall. This created a serious safety risk due to sudden loss of power at highway speed.

Equipment problem #3

“service safety restraint system” light came on. I feel this is a defect and a serious concern. I’ve seen where others are experiencing the same issue. I bought this vehicle specifically because I wanted to a safe vehicle to drive my 4 children around in.

Equipment problem #4

The car turned itself off while driving 55 to 60 mph on a highway. Would not turn back on after getting to the side of the road. Very dangerous.

Equipment problem #5

Unknown: approximately once a week, all of the sound stops in the vehicle including the blinker sound, radio & connected phones. I'm unsure if affects anything else. I have googled this issue and it seems as if other gm vehicle owners have the same issue. There were no warnings or warning lights.

Equipment problem #6

Had an issue where the left/right turn signals stopped functioning. This occurred while in-use while waiting to make a turn. Shutting the car on and off did not correct the problem. Contacted dealer and advised to bring in. I chose to disconnect the battery rebooting the vehicles bom. Issue resolved after a vehicle reboot. This is a serious software issue.

Equipment problem #7

Had an issue where the main front digital cluster went black upon a start-up and drive. No speedometer, engine status, gear status or anything. Shutting the car on and off did not correct the problem. Contacted dealer and advised to bring in. I chose to disconnect the battery rebooting the vehicles bom. Issue resolved after a vehicle reboot. This is a serious software issue.

Equipment problem #8

I was driving on the interstate and my sunroof exploded. There were few cars around me and I was not under a bridge. I did not see anything coming at the car or see anything drop or fall behind us. Just heard a lot exploding noise.
