NHTSA Complaint #10606756 — 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO

THE FORWARD COLLISION ALERT SYSTEM IS NOT SAFE. I HAVE HAD THIS GO OFF ON ME OVER 100 TIMES IN 25,000 MILES AND ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT A FEW TIMES. THE LED ON THE DASH WILL FLASH AND THE SEAT WILL VIBRATE CAUSING YOU TO REACT THINKING YOU ARE GETTING READY TO HIT SOMETHING. THIS OCCURS IN 3 SITUATIONS: 1) APPROACHING AN UNDERPASS WHILE THE SUN IS SHINING INTO THE WINDSHIELD, WHICH IS DAILY FOR ME DURING MY COMMUTE. 2) IN A LANE ON THE HIGHWAY CLOSEST TO THE BARRIER WALL, IT THINKS YOU ARE GOING TO HIT IT HEAD ON I GUESS. 3) ON A 2 LANE SIDE ROAD WITH APPROACHING CARS ARE THE ARE PASSING BY ON YOUR DRIVERS SIDE. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DETECT IF THIS IS DUE TO THE SUNSHINE OR HEAD LIGHTS. SO THIS CAUSES A MAJOR ALERT REACTION TO YOU EACH TIME, THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE AS A REACTION TO NOTHING BUT ALERTS CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IN ITSELF. *TR
