[XXX] and due to a large scale amount of GM vehicles having this same failure the replacement parts are unavailable.  My research has found that this module failure has been a problem since at least February 2025 and now in December the parts are still on backorder for each failure.  I purchased this car for my [XXX]  daughter and now that this module has failed I am unable to track the vehicle and the vehicle's mapping system is useless, along with the ability to locate nearby charging stations.  Additionally, the OnStar system is disabled and that is a safety issue.  When we took the car into the dealership, they were very accommodating and diagnosed the issue quickly.  This was in part due to the fact that my daughter is only [XXX]  and cannot be provided a loaner vehicle or rental for age related requirements.  I am unable to swap cars with my daughter since I drive a very large truck for work.  So, basically we are stuck with a vehicle that has a faulty telematics module for un uncertain amount of time (Dealership expected 6 weeks) all while GM continues to produce new vehicles with the parts it is receiving and not honoring those who have already purchased a vehicle and should have priority to parts under both the warranty itself and the fact that this is a safety related issue.  Also, the fact that this has not become a recall or at least a part that needs to be inspected for potential premature failure is unacceptable.  GM appears to have zero ability to rectify this in a reasonable amount of time and instead is putting it on the backs of their customers while they continue benefitting from new cars sales with the parts stock that are available.

This reflection is bright and widespread, directly obstructing my field of vision and making it difficult to see the road ahead clearly. The glare is particularly noticeable on clear or sunny days and significantly increases the risk of an accident.  This visibility issue appears to be related to the dashboard material and design, which may not adequately diffuse or absorb sunlight. I believe this condition may affect other drivers as well, potentially leading to widespread safety concerns.  I respectfully urge the NHTSA to investigate this matter and consider whether this condition warrants further examination or manufacturer guidance to reduce the risk associated with glare-induced visibility loss.  Please let me know if any further information or documentation (such as photographs or video recordings) would be helpful in reviewing this issue.

That dealer told me that GM was refusing to fix anything, insisting that I wait six months to see if a seemingly unrelated software update fixes the issue. The manager at my dealership has been trying to get approval and did get approval to replace a part in attempt to fix it. That did not work and they are now refusing to replace the other part that has fixed a similar issue for others. I believe they replaced the module that processes the sensor information, but are refusing to replace the sensor (volume wheel) itself. This car would have been crashed by many other drivers who could not cope with such in-vehicle distraction - this includes my daughter who refuses to drive the vehicle and really doesn't like riding in it.

This is a safety issue because it looks like erratic signaling behavior to those outside of the vehicle. When travelling on busy highways at speeds exceeding 60mph erratic signaling of this kind can confuse other drivers and lead to collisions. It can make other drivers think you are driving erratically (like changing lanes only to double back into the lane you came from) or to try to pass you rapidly just to escape a driver that is signaling strangely.  This has been confirmed on many Equinox EVs, both '24 and '25 model years. This does not trigger any sort of errors, warnings, chimes or alerts. It simply excessively triggers the turn signals outside of when you would want them actuated. The fix is just to tweak the turn signal resistance to be more like other vehicles.

The dash of the car has a slotted design unlike any I have seen in any other car, including other Chevy models currently available at Chevrolet dealerships. This slotted design creates numerous surfaces across the entire width of the dash that easily reflect the light thus producing a horrible glare on the windshield.  I first noticed this issue within minutes of my first test driving a '24 model back in May 2024, something the salesperson had claimed to be unaware of but quickly conceded it was bad. As we changed direction the problem subsided and he felt it was probably only a rare issue. I finally took delivery of a '25 model on 01/16/25 & discovered that the issue persists more frequently than expected & is bad enough to block a clear view of what is in front of the vehicle. The problem is worse during bright, sunny days & from certain angles to the sun, but I have also noticed it on cloud covered days as well. It has been suggested that I use polarized glasses to mitigate the issue, & they do help, but they create other issues such as clearly seeing controls inside the car or viewing the rearview mirror as they darken everything.  I am concerned that at some point, when the reflections are very bad, that I will not see a car backing out of a space in front of me or a pedestrian starting to walk out in front of me. It's unbelievable Chevy did not recognize this issue & address it at some point during all their testing before releasing this car for sale. I have found that this issue is a huge problem for many others & vehicle specific forums online are full of people having the same bad experience. I in fact acquired the link to this form from someone in  those forums who was also having this issue. Something needs to be done by Chevy to fix this before someone is seriously hurt or worse.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2025","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"EQUINOX EV","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11640096,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"02/01/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"02/01/2025","vin":"3GN7DLRP5SS","components":"FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE","summary":"I was traveling on a two lane road at about 50mph and the car applied full strength regenerative braking without warning, quickly slowing down to about 40mph when I took over the throttle.
