Common Reported SymptomsAI Analysis
The steering wheel locks at 9 and 3 when turning the wheel. It doesn’t spin back like it should when returning straight. Very dangerous!
The lane departure warning goes on and off randomly. The heating stopped working. There are glitches on the screen interface. And yesterday a red light with a car and exclamation mark through it came on. I took it to the dealer and they only had time to check the code which came up as "hybrid/ev powertrain control module requested MIL illumination" The advisor who is not an ev technician told me not to worry about it because the light went off. Everything i am reading online says this could be a huge safety issue. When I reported it to the manufacturer, they told me to listen to the dealer without getting more information and would not transfer me to a manager. I am concerned for my safety and the safety of others. And I am finding Chevrolet to be negligent on what could be a huge hazard.
Rear backup camera feed fails to display on infotainment screen. The issue appeared about a month ago and persisted until I took it into the dealership. The service center updated the software, and the camera initially worked properly again, but within 2 weeks of the repair, the issue recurred and persisted. Federal safety standards require all vehicles made after May 2018 to have functioning backup cameras. I live in a neighborhood that has a lot of small children, and their safety is at risk when any vehicle’s back up camera is not working.
I have a chevrolet bolt for which I have a mychevrolet app link to control the vehicle remotely. For some reason I just noticed my mychevrolet app also is linked to a second chevy Bolt (the vehicle I am noting the VIN of in this complaint) for which I have no ownership of. This is a massive security lapse by chevrolet and they need to be investigated thoroughly as to why this occurred.
I am experiencing a well known flaw in the Chevy Bolt steering rack. The rack loses grease over time and eventually begins making clunking sounds, does not return the steering wheel to center, and makes steering less precise. This is a very common issue within Chevy Bolt forums and should be addressed by Chevy as a safety issue.
2023 Bolt's steering wheel doesn't return to center position while driving making it dangerous to drive.
Steering system not behaving as expected. Very stiff when making left and right turns at slow and moderate speeds, with a failure of the steering wheel to return to center.
I was driving in my neighborhood a few miles from home on a state road going about 45/50 mph. The car suddenly slowed to 30 mph without warning, an alert said there was a problem with the propulsion system and speed was limited to 30mph. There was no prior warning or indication of a problem. The sudden deceleration almost caused the car behind me to hit me.
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.
Ive had my car for 1 month. I drive for 4-5 hours a day and when I hit a decent bump in the road or enter/exit a steep driveway the drivers seat will click forward or backward a notch. This has happens every day, several times per day.
