Consumer Description
We purchased the vehicle New. Within approx. 300 miles started to hear a bearing noise intermittently while driving. We returned to the dealership to have it diagnosed. We were advised that the could not duplicate it. A few days later the noise was brominate while driving at highway speeds. Returned to the dealer. We were told that it was caused by the Active Noise Cancelling system and that they performed an update(per GM service bulletin) to the control module to correct it. Picked up the vehicle. Driving around town no issue. Driving at highway speeds the noise would come and go. On June 14, 2025. while driving on the highway at 70 MPH the engine shut down. My wife and daughter were in the vehicle in the middle lane of a busy highway. The dash displayed "Automatic Braking Engaged! WHILE TRYING TO GET OFF THE ROAD. The vehicle brought itself to a COMPLETE STOP. On The HIGHWAY and Engaged the Parking Brake Automatically. This is unbelievable and extremely Dangerous. How or why did some engineer think this was good idea for the vehicle to Lock Itself down ON THE ROAD!
