Adaptive cruise control when on closest setting will not stop the car when you are going over 60mph, when a car drastically slows down in front of you the car fails to respond in fact the adaptive cruise control shuts off and ive practically hit the vehicle in front of me many times ..its hard to trust this system..and the other day it just shut off all together without a hard warning I could have plowed into the car in front of me. Also the lane assist does not beep/or seat rattle when you veer from your lane. It beeps randomly sometimes when you edge out of your lane going around a bend "sometimes" but randomly and not consistently. Ive talked to chevys customer care team and they keep referring to the dealership like they are the manufacturer..but they did not design and are assuming its working right because all their other same models do the same things..in my opinion this doesnt mean its not a recallable inherent issue with its current programming..I think it is and should be corrected before someone gets hurt

This complaint is not the result of an accident, but to prevent one from happening and possible taking lives of people. The keep lane assist (lka) is dangerous in that if you are depending on it. There are occasions that normal traffic lines are present and for some reason the just disappear and are not present and it is possible for the vehicle to veer off the road or into the opposing lane. General motors does provide a means of turning lka off, but it re-enables every time the vehicle is started. The auto stop (as) has the issue that if you stop and your vehicle stops running, you can be in a situation where you cannot get out of the way in time to prevent an accident because the vehicle has to have time to restart. Other manufactures provide a means of disabling as with a switch but general motors does not. I called the dealership and general motors and both declined to deal with the problems.

Turned car on (in driveway) and service ESC light came on. Traction control, stability control, and driver front and lane assist all disengaged. Unable to manually turn back on through steering controls. Stopped the vehicle, parked in a parking lot, and turned on and off multiple times and the service ESC light was still on. Drove to destination with the service ESC light still on, turned off vehicle, waited a few minutes, turned it back on and the service ESC light was off. Contacted local chevy dealer's service department. Was told to drive around for a couple more days and see if the issue returns. If it does return after a few days, recommended to schedule service.

While driving, the tires felt like they were being locked up to keep from fishtailing even though roads were clear and dry with normal acceleration. After driving, parked vehicle and sat in it for an hour. Afterwards, turned vehicle on and the screen stated to service ESC. Stabilitrak, lane assist, and parking assist light came on. After a couple hours with the vehicle off and drove a block, the warning lights turned off and became normal. Then after an hour of the vehicle sitting and turned off for an hour, we began driving on the highway, after an hour of driving, the screen stated to service ESC again. Stabilitrak, lane assist, and parking assist light came on again.
