Multiple warning lights on the vehicle stating the ABS brake system was not functioning, the letters brake showed by the gauges but it was not the parking brake because I put that on to check it and it was a different warning light. The lane assist was not functioning. In January I had the brakes looked at because they are squealing anytime you use them. The brake shop I took it to told me this is a known issue and the brakes are fine and that there was no way to stop the squealing because my brakes still had 80% of their pad. On multiple occasions when I’ve need to brake hard quickly the car had felt like it was shaking and the brakes didn’t feel like they were catching. Vehicle is currentl

August 11, 2026Forward Collision Avoidance1 injury

I am reporting a recurring safety issue with the Forward Collision Alert/Automatic Emergency Braking system on my 2023 Chevrolet Blazer 2LT. The vehicle frequently activates the Forward Collision Alert when there is no vehicle, pedestrian, or other obstruction in front of me. The red collision warning will illuminate and the system will beep even when the roadway is clear. More concerning, on three separate occasions the vehicle has unexpectedly applied the brakes extremely hard while I was driving in traffic despite there being no obstacle or imminent collision. The most recent incident occurred on August 11, 2026. I was making a turn through a busy intersection when the Automatic Emergency

The vehicle’s radiator developed a coolant leak that was discovered and confirmed by the dealership during a routine oil change, tire rotation and state inspection. There were no warning lights, warning messages prior to the dealership discovering the leak. The radiator required replacement. The dealership also told me that they had the replacement radiator on hand because this type of radiator failure had been occurring fairly often with this type of vehicle. The radiator failure presented a potential safety concern because a coolant leak can worsen without warning and result in a sudden loss of coolant, engine overheating, or vehicle breakdown while driving. Because there were no warning l
