EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Blinker arm often bounces back to the opposite direction when the blinker automatically cancels once you have made your turn. As an example if I have left blinker on after I complete my turn it often bounces back over to the right side turning the right blinker for a few flashes.

SERVICE BRAKES
The vehicle has engaged the brake on multiple occasions unexpectedly. This is related to the recent recall that GM announced and is unable to repair. I have made multiple attempts to reach GM through written mail, phone, X and the BBB and have not received a satisfactory resolution as the safety issue persists.

PARKING BRAKE
See attached document for complaint. I am writing to formally notify you, pursuant to the California Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act (California Civil Code§§ 1790 et seq.), that my 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV, VIN 3GNKDHRK4RSXXXXXX is subject to an active safety recall N252503010 for the parking brake system. GM has acknowledged the defect, but no genuine repair or remedy Is available. I have already experienced problems with the parking brake, which substantially impair the safety, use and value of the vehicle. Due to the severity of this defect, I have placed the vehicle at the dealership, Woodland Motors, and it will remain there until GM completes the buyback process. I refuse to drive it because it is unsafe. I further understand that GM has instructed the dealership to adjust the depth sensor as so-called remedy. This adjustment has no bearing on the parking brake defect and cannot be reasonably be considered a repair nor the taping of brake lines that they also instructed to do. It does not address the safety risk or brake failure or unintended activation. Under California Civil Code§ 1793.2, the manufacturer must repair any defect that substantially impairs the use, value, or safety of the vehicle within a reasonable number of attempts and within a reasonable period of time. Since GM has no remedy and cannot provide a repair, it is impossible to comply with this requirement. Accordingly, I hereby demand that GM immediately: Repurchase my vehicle for the full purchase price, including sales tax, registration, finance charges, and any incidental or consequential damages. In addition, I request GM immediately provide me with a loaner vehicle or GM-paid rental until this matter is resolved, as it is unsafe to operate my current vehicle. If GM fails to resolve this matter promptly, I will retain legal counsel and pursue all available remedies, including attorney's fees, court costs and civil penalties under California Civil Code §1794.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Left turn signal can activate by itself after right turn. Details: Driving and making a right turn with the right turn signal active, after the turn when the signal cancels, the signal sometimes activates the left blink-to-pass feature causing the left signal to blink 3 times. This appears to be because the turn signal arm falls too hard. When turning onto a multi lane road this causes confusion to drivers coming up behind where they think I am moving into the left lane, but I am not. GM has loaded software to reduce this but it still happens. They replaced my turn signal arm and it still happens (much less often now). I can prevent it from happening by using my finger to dampen the turn signal arm when it cancels by catching it and slowing it down. I stopped using my turn signal completely as it is embarrassing when it does this.

VISIBILITY/WIPER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The glare reflecting from the dashboard on to the windshield is many times blinding and obstructs a lot of the front view. Also randomly the side mirrors tilt up while driving giving me a view of the sky but not the road behind me.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
There is a glare from the dashboard of the vehicle that shines onto the windshield and causes visibility to be nearly impossible. I am unable to see certain things on the roadway as a result. This happens every single time the sun happens to be out and is an extreme safety issue. This vehicle is not safe to operate or be on the roadway in any way shape or form

PARKING BRAKE
The contact owns a 2024 Chevrolet Blazer. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle independently came to an abrupt stop, with the "Service Parking Brake" message displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where an attempt to duplicate the failure was unsuccessful. The contact was informed that the failure was likely a user error and that no issues were found with the vehicle. The failure persisted, and the contact then received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V433000 (PARKING BRAKE); which the contact linked to the failure. The vehicle was taken back to a dealer for the recall repair. The contact stated that the repair involved the installation of an anti-abrasive tape around the wiring harness. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a representative was sent to inspect the vehicle. The Chevrolet Representative was later informed by the dealer that the brake lines were already taped prior to the recall and that no additional repairs were needed. The vehicle remained in the possession of the dealer because the contact was concerned about the safe operation of the vehicle. The failure mileage was unknown.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
Glossy components on the Blazer EV dashboard reflect onto the windshield in most daylight driving conditions. The glare is excessive and makes it difficult to discern pedestrians and other obstructions. Chevrolet acknowledged the design flaw when they recently started providing free dash covers for the Equinox EV. The Equinox and Blazer EV dashboards are essentially the same. A dash cover is not a permanent solution though, and Chevrolet should replace the glossy dashboard components with a material that is less reflective.

SERVICE BRAKES, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Multiple safety-critical systems have malfunctioned since shortly after purchase, continuing to this day. The most serious is the forward collision braking, which has triggered randomly during normal driving. These braking events have occurred on highways and surface streets, posing a serious risk if a vehicle were following closely. During arbitration, the manufacturer admitted this is a known defect with no current fix, yet continues to return the vehicle marked as “repaired.” Additional issues include: Adaptive cruise control failure Intermittent charging failures (won’t initiate or randomly stops mid-charge) Infotainment screen freezing or going blank Inconsistent air conditioning performance Rear hatch failing to open/close and requiring physical force Bluetooth audio that disconnects unless the vehicle is powered off for 15+ minutes These problems have been reported to two GM-authorized dealerships. One repair attempt at a second location was ignored in arbitration. I also contacted GM corporate multiple times directly, requesting support. My attempts were either unanswered or dismissed, with no action taken. Many concerns were labeled “unable to duplicate,” even when I provided documentation. No warning lights appear with braking or charging failures. Most issues temporarily resolve after a full power-down, suggesting a software or control system fault. The manufacturer participated in arbitration and acknowledged the unresolved defects, but refused to provide further oversight or assign a factory technician. The vehicle is available for inspection. I am reporting this because the problems are ongoing and impact safety, reliability, and functionality.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
While driving the vehicle loses power to the instrument panel and gauges and infotainment system. The vehicle remains under power however the driver looses the ability to see how fast the vehicle is moving or any information as the entire dashboard loses power. The safety to both myself and my family as well as other drivers is at risk if I am unable to see how fast I am going or control any equipment in my vehicle. This is a known issue online with many other drivers of the blazer EV experiencing the same issue with no remedy from the manufacturer.

After getting the recall repaired (which I was never informed of and I had the parking brake engage as I was travelling 30 mph causing me to skid down the road) I got the vehicle back and the very next day it was the same issue and the abs and traction control light came on and it began making loud clicking noises every time I would engage the brake.
