Rear camera stoped working. I read 2022 to 2024 had recalls on internet. Ours is 2025. Been to dealer they ordered new camera under warranty. But there on back order. They said they would call us when it came in. That’s the story.
The dash/infotainment system goes blank while driving, almost like the car looses power. Then turns back on after 60 seconds with all the warning lights on before returning back to normal.
Rear back up camera. One day it started to glitch when put in reverse. I placed the car in park, gave it a moment and put it in reverse again. This was repeated in the attempt to get the back up camera to work. Next- turned the vehicle off for a moment, restarted it, put in reverse and this did not help. Also, I attempted to check for update/update and reset the infotainment system. This did not help. The backup camera, after this incident has not worked since. I bought this car brand new. Also, just to note, the car shakes dramatically when increasing certain speed during winter, due to very little snow on the tires.
My car along with multiple other cars like mine are having issues with the back up camera not working. I have to take it into a Chevrolet dealer to get it replaced. It is a huge safety concern and a recall needs to be issued.
The nut on the axle on the passenger side of the vehicle came completely off. Not sure how long it was off as it was “smooth” and full of dirt. From what I was told the wheel could fall off. I travel on an interstate at 80 miles an hour daily. I bought this car to transport elderly mother to appointments. I am not feeling confident in this vehicle. I would trade it if I was not upside down in it. The dealership has been great.
The vehicle displayed a warning on the dash that the battery was not charging properly and vehicle may stall. The vehicle was checked at dealership and issue was disregarded. 3 days later the vehicle showed the same warning and the battery light flickered, there was a chane in the power and lights dimmed. This was evaluated by dealership, apparently it is a known issue but no resolution available. When the battery light flashed during the second event there was no control over the vehicle (power/steering) creating a very concerning safety issue.
My navigation, radio, internet and onstar went out and continually goes out on a day-by-day basis. I was in a different state, and it was pouring rain, my navigation, radio and onstar ability was gone. Chevy knows this is an ongoing issue with 2024 and said the radio is back ordered. This car is a 2025 and its still and issue. The ability to fix it has been stated as unknown because they have no fix for the radio at this time in either year. When you rely on navigation to get you home and it leaves in torrential rainstorm, and you have no idea how to get home that is bad. If I had been in an accident or god forbid rolled down a hill. Onstar would not have been alerted to this and it could be a potential life or death issue. Everything in the front of the car goes out. I am not sure what else is affected as the car is new and I am learning all the different devices. In all states nationwide it is illegal to hold your device, that is why we rely on this technology. There is no lights or failure indication other than the onstar goes red and the radio goes out. Onstar has stated if my button is red, it's a hardware failure and they will not be alerted, and I will not be able to alert them to an emergency situation.
