The onstar module failed. Also controlling the pedestrian px Proximity sensor and crosstraffic sensor. When driving slowly waiting a parking lot the vehicle locked up on the brakes with the warning message pedestrian alert. The area was clear. No pedestrians were in the vicinity This would be the 3rd incident 1st was cross traffic already braking while entering a light only at a speed of 15 mph. 2nd was the cross traffic and 3rd was the pedestrian alert.. We discovered the onstar module contrs all of these functions. Contacting the dealer theu stated the module need to be replaced but there is not an ETA on the part arrival as this is a common issue with all vehicles that contain. This module. We are scared it will happen if a driver pulls in front when in traffic or put us in a precarious even deadly situation

While backing into parking at a Humble Cow ice cream place. My 2025 Chevy Blazer EV AWD slammed to a stop. I was going 4 mph my spouses head hit the head rest and caused severe pain and stress. We had to go to the emergency room for treatment. This has happened 6 other times 3 since having the required updates and replacement of modules that took several months to complete. She was given medication and lytocain patches for the trauma of her neck and head. She is now afraid to drive in my vehicle. I looked up the situation and found on Reddit and the internet that this is a known issue with Chevy and several other vehicles relating to their braking and eboost system. One work around is to turn off all of the sensors from the settings menu to include parking. It also said to not use the one pedal driving. This is unattainable for a brand new car that I paid Cash 45-50,000 for and not to be able to use it as intended. Please look into this. I will be filing another complaint with the dealership on 14 September 2026. Something must be done.

The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Blazer EV. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, there was a clicking sound coming from the front suspension of the vehicle, and the vehicle was difficult to drive in a straight line or turn in either direction. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was informed that the vehicle could not be repaired, and a buyback was offered for the vehicle. Additionally, while driving at an undisclosed speed, the Forward Collision Avoidance system erroneously activated, causing the vehicle to abruptly stop in the middle of the road. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who reprogrammed the Forward Collision Avoidance sensors, but the failure persisted. Additionally, the charging port had malfunctioned and became inoperable. The charging port was replaced, and the vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 200.

Is 19 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2025 and 2026, roughly 11 a year, which is more than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
