2023 Chevrolet Bolt Euv

I’ve experienced multiple instances where the Rear Cross Traffic Alert system on my 2023 Chevy Bolt EUV fails to function properly when the vehicle is shifted into reverse. Specifically, there are times when the system does not emit any audible warning despite approaching cross traffic, and in other cases, the alert system appears to be completely unresponsive, no visual indicators or chimes occur at all. This happens intermittently and unpredictably, regardless of weather conditions or terrain. The issue is concerning because the system is a critical safety feature intended to warn of vehicles or objects approaching from the side while reversing, particularly in parking lots or driveways. The lack of warning increases the risk of a collision, especially in areas with obstructed views or high pedestrian activity. This appears to be a defect in the sensor system or software that controls cross traffic detection. I believe this poses a significant safety concern and may affect other Bolt EV vehicles.

The contact owns a 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EUV. The contact stated that while in reverse(R), the infotainment screen displayed a red, triangular warning symbol, rendering the back-up camera inoperable. The contact also stated that an alert feature warning the driver of incoming objects also failed to operate as needed. In addition, the contact stated that the infotainment system intermittently failed to return to normal operation while shifted out of reverse(R). The vehicle had been taken to the dealer on numerous occasions where the wiring harness, back-up camera, head unit, infotainment screen, and other parts related to the defect had been replaced; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer had been notified on numerous occasions about the failure but offered no solutions. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 1,506.
