2024 Chevrolet Equinox Ev

We have occasional issues with the car coming to a very abrupt stop for no apparent reason. Typically this will happen when going through an intersection or pulling into our garage. Auto braking has been disabled in the system settings for quite some time, and in fact, each time we get in the car we see a warning that forward anti-collision braking is off. This has happened twice withing the past 4 days and we have concerns that if it continues to be a more frequent issue it will cause an accident. I recently spoke with another GM owner who told me they are experiencing the same issue so I thought I should log a complaint to hopefully help instigate a recall/fix.

I was driving South on interstate 55 near Arnold Missouri in adaptive cruise control mode at approximately 65 mph when the car braked suddenly and came to a complete stop on the interstate. Car would not go forward after stopping. Turned the car off and restarted and the car now would drive normally. Have not used ACC since and car has behaved normally. Took the car to dealership in Farmington, MO and they reported no error codes and no recalls. I had driven over 13,000 miles in the car without any incidents previously.

The contact owns a 2024 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that while driving and attempting to reverse, the brakes unexpectedly engaged. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V639000 (Forward Collision Avoidance). The vehicle was taken to an unknown dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

My cars automatic braking system stops when there is no present need. It brakes with extreme force. It has happened multiple times to both myself and my husband while driving. The car stops and instantly I think I must have hit something that stopped the car. There isn't anything closer than 10 - 20 or feet away. this happens at a slow speed and is very startling. We took in in to the dealer yesterday and they told us they couldn't replicate it. It happened to my husband this morning again. I looked online to see if there are any complaints to which I saw that there have been numerous complaints. Some stating that this phantom braking has happened on the highways at speeds of 65-70 mph. The thought of that is so frightening. An accident with injuries or deaths could occur. Please look into this. Thank you

While driving my 2024 Chevy Equinox EV in stop-and-go traffic, I experienced a sudden and violent application of the emergency braking system without warning or apparent cause. I was accelerating from a complete stop to approximately 5 MPH. The vehicle ahead of me was maintaining a distance of roughly 6 to 9 feet. Unlike previous instances where the vehicle has falsely detected an object and triggered a red warning light (without engaging the brakes), this time there was no alert or warning. The system immediately and forcefully applied the brakes, locking them completely. This abrupt action caused a near-whiplash effect and nearly resulted in a rear-end collision. I believe this may be a malfunction or overly sensitive calibration of the automatic emergency braking system. The lack of any visual or audible warning prior to brake engagement is especially concerning. I am reporting this incident to raise awareness of a potential safety issue that could endanger drivers and passengers. Additional Notes: • Road conditions were normal. • No obstacles or vehicles were detected in the immediate path. • The incident occurred during daylight hours in clear weather.

After Super Cruise disengages and applies the transition brake, the brake pressure sometimes doesn’t release. The vehicle remains partially or fully braked and won’t roll freely for up to 30 minutes while on a freeway or highway. We are able to move the car to the side of road when this happens but slowly. In one case we attempted to exit the freeway and the breaks got so hot they locked up in the middle of an intersection and the police department had to direct traffic around us. When this happens the warning lights are “rear cross traffic unavailable “ and “forward collision unavailable”. Dealers have inspected and opened up tac cases with manufacturer but they claim to not know issue.
