The vehicle’s body control module, infotainment software, and HVAC (climate control) system malfunctioned. The system entered an unresolvable software loop that forced the temperature to lock at 76 degrees Fahrenheit, engaged the max defroster/defogger, and blasted the cabin fan at maximum speed while ignoring all manual overrides or touchscreen inputs. The vehicle is fully available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? My safety and the safety of others on the road were severely compromised by extreme driver distraction and hazardous environmental conditions. Because the software locked the cabin controls, the interior of the vehicle rapidly became unbearably hot during high-summer temperatures. To stop the system from overwhelming the cabin, I was forced to constantly look away from the road to repeatedly press non-responsive touchscreen buttons while driving. Furthermore, the only known remedy to break the software freeze requires pulling over, turning the vehicle off, and letting it sit completely powered down for 20 minutes. This forced me into dangerous situations where I had to choose between driving while completely distracted in extreme heat, or pulling over and waiting in high-risk areas where it was unsafe to stop. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? UNKNOWN. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? UNKNOWN. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? There were no warning lamps, error messages, or prior symptoms before the failure. The climate control system suddenly locked and became completely unresponsive without warning while the vehicle was in operation","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2026","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"EQUINOX","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
