Grinding or squealing brakes by model year
What owners say
My car has been well maintained and always taken for service according to recommendations from the manufacturer. My brakes have ALWAYS squealed since I first bought it new but apparently there’s nothing they can do about it so I’ve just dealt with it. Now a more serious concern I am having after manufacturer warranty is my dash is displaying a shift to park message every time I shift into park and turn off my car. I also might add that this has been going on with others! Chevy doesn’t think it’s a concern when it is a very serious issue. I have children and once when I went to get gas after almost being on empty my car wouldn’t turn off because of that error and I couldn’t get gas. I tried turning it off and on multiple times to fix but it just didn’t want to work when I needed it most. I have to aggressively charge gears go get it to work most of the time. It’s a serious issue that has been brought to their attention and shouldn’t be happening to a vehicle under 50,000 miles and well maintained. These issues need to be addressed there’s no reason I should have to pay to fix an issue this extensive and costly in a 2022 vehicle.
I called the dealership when my car had less than 10,000 miles complaining of the brakes squealing very loudly almost sounding like grinding I took the car in they said the brakes were just dirty they cleaned them the very next day the brakes were making the same noise I call them again they say next time I come in for oil change they will look at them I go in they say they are dirty to drive fast on the interstate and stop really fast and it will loosen the dirt. Again I call again complaining about the brakes they say they will look again this time they say they have looked to see if there is any recalls and don’t see any so they grease the brakes they said if this don’t fix it then I would say that you just have very good brakes that’s what good brakes sound like. I’m fixing to have a baby and I’m worried that this could be potentially harmful with me one of these days not being able to stop because the brakes go bad. This has been going on for over a year and the delearship also informed they have it on record everytime I have called and complained
Brakes continuously squeak and has been taken to dealer on several occasions to address but was told nothing wrong. The collision avoidance reacts to vehicles parked on side of road which has also been taken to dealer but told nothing wrong. Apple car play works intermittently.
•What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Brakes make a squeaking noise coming to a stop. Issue often occurs applying light pressure to the brake pedal. Noticeable after starting the car when it has not been running for a while. •Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Has not been reproduced by dealer. I have taken this vehicle to two GM dealers (Cerrone Chevrolet and McGee Chevrolet) and received the same response that this is not an issue and is normal. I have stated I wanted this inspected to avoid further issues but received the same response. •Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer or insurance, but the problem is noticeable by passengers. •Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Symptoms were noticeable around 9,000 miles
My brakes squeal on occasion. At slow speeds when stopping the brake pedal goes soft. The suv pulls to the left slightly and a metal on metal sound begins to emit from the drivers side braking system. The sound changes to something I can only describe as from a video game or a raptor from The Jurassic Park movies. I have videos of the sound, although they do it no justice. The dealership couldn't reproduce the sound. It happens when it wants. No warning lamps come on. It feels like the car won't stop on time when this happens. The vehicle is available for inspection.
