2023 Chevrolet Colorado forward collision avoidance problems

“After shifting to drive the vehicle had no brakes. A week or so earlier the check engine light came on. Messages on the screen said brake system failure along with other messages. Took to dealership, an update was installed. Last Wednesday engine light reappeared with the same messages but didn’t have time to return it to the dealership so parked it until today. Today was the brake failure. Returned to dealership, they replaced the battery and said the brake issue is fixed. I’m not convinced this fixed the issue and believe this could get someone seriously injured or killed.”

“The contact owns a 2023 Chevrolet Colorado. The contact stated that while driving on several occasions at various speeds, the Forward Collision Avoidance system activated, and the brakes inadvertently engaged. The Forward Collision Avoidance warning light illuminated, with an audible chime and an unknown message displayed. The contact stated that on one occasion the vehicle was pulled off the highway to avoid crashing with another vehicle. The vehicle was restarted and taken to a dealer. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V133000 (Electrical System, Forward Collision Avoidance) while getting service, and a system update was performed, and the front camera system was updated. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure returned three days later. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.”

“My truck has used automatic emergency braking multiple times while driving at variable speeds with no obstacles or vehicles in front of me causing whiplash and further damage to my neck that has 5 budging discs. Since I’m only allowed to add a specific mileage and speed below, I’ll note here that it’s happened since I purchased the truck with roughly 35000 miles on it to the current mileage of 44000 and between speeds of 30mph-75mph.”

“The automated emergency breaking system has been triggered unintentionally twice traveling at speeds of 50 miles per hour. There was no vehicle or object that entered our path. We were traveling behind cars at least three car lengths behind that remained at the same speed. Had there been vehicles behind us, we would have been rear ended at high speeds as the truck came to almost a complete stop on its own immediately.”

“Traveling approximately 45 mph on a main road and brakes automatically engaged causing vehicle to abruptly stop. This due to faulty Automatic Emergency Braking system that has allegedly already been repaired with a software update. My child and I were in the vehicle and had another vehicle been directly behind us or even oncoming we would have likely been involved in a collision. There was no warning that came on other than the red flashing lights and beeping that engaged the same time as the automatic braking. I will likely have to go to seek medical care for soreness in my neck and back from the jarring of my body from the abrupt stop. Waiting to hear if daughter is feeling any pain as well, as mine onset through the day after the incident.”

“Recall was performed on truck about a year ago for the pedestrian collision automatic braking. Today the truck locked up the brakes in traffic and there wasn’t a pedestrian in sight. I believe the recall didnt truly fix the issue, as it has given false alerts before without applying the brakes”
