A few weeks ago my adaptive cruise stopped working, as well as the automatic high beam system (not sure the technical name). As there was a warning light displayed, I brought it into the dealership to have them check it out. The technician jumped in really quick, made some changes within the control panel, and the light came off. As I drove out and tried to use the adaptive cruise control, it didn't work and I almost went into the back of a truck. That all being said, I brought it back into the dealer last week for them to diagnose the problem as a failed front windshield camera. I find it hard to believe that this camera can fail at 50k miles, and the repair with parts and labor costing approximately $1000. This is an advanced system designed to improve the driver experience and heavily marketed. Considering this is tied to safety in some capacity, shouldn't GM cover this repair? I quickly googled the issue and found others have had the same failure. The camera system combined with the control panel covers so many applications, I would be concerned about other issues with the truck. Not to mention the massive recall of my L87 engine and water pump failure that I have also dealt with. I appreciate you taking the time to read my rant. Not sure if this will do anything, but it would be nice to have some sort of relief from the OEM due to the issues I have already experienced owning this truck.
2022 GMC Sierra 1500 driver assistance complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 34 of 34, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Following engine replacement per the federal safety agency for 6.2l GMC engine. I am submitting a safety complaint regarding my 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali (refresh body style). The vehicle has experienced repeated failures of driver-assist features and safety system warnings, including: Dash messages: “Lane Keeping Assist System Unavailable” and “Service Safety Restraint System.” When the fault occurs, driver-assist features including Adaptive Cruise Control become inoperative. The issue has recurred multiple times, including after repairs. After one event, the truck sat parked approximately 10 days and the battery discharged to failure and required replacement. A dealership visit documented DTC U3000 (“Internal Electronic Failure”) in the front view camera module. The dealer replaced/programmed/calibrated the front camera on 02/09/2026 at approximately 58,405 miles (invoice/RO #285795). The symptoms have recurred despite prior resets and this repair. I am concerned about loss of driver-assist functions while driving and the presence of a safety restraint system warning. Please investigate whether there is a defect related to the front camera/driver-assist systems and/or electrical module behavior that can cause repeat faults and battery drain on this model.
The front forward-facing camera module has failed, causing cruise control and driver-assistance features to become inoperative. Dealer diagnosis indicates the front camera must be replaced and recalibrated in order to restore cruise control and safety systems. This failure disables cruise control and driver-assist features that were standard equipment on the vehicle at purchase, resulting in a sudden loss of functionality while driving. The dealer has provided a repair estimate of approximately $1,150, including parts, labor, and required calibration, at owner expense. Based on similar reports from other owners, this appears to be a recurring issue affecting this model year.
Recently, I just purchased my vehicle from Wally Edgar Chervolet with no open recalls on the vehicle. As of September 29th, 2025 for my very first oil change on the vehicle I was made aware for 4 OPEN Recalls which was told to me at the time of purchase. The dealership closed the all recalls without actually checking my make the vehicle was safe to drive. The Recall Numbers are: N252510321, N222362040, N212356230, N222357620.
Every time I pull the truck into my garage or a parking stall at low speeds while using the front park sensor it will shut off with the automatic start stop while still in motion. Then you have to let off the brake pedal for it to start and sometimes the vehicle will search forward.
Intermittent failure of audio and safety alerts (Forward Collision Alert, Lane Departure Warning) Dealership’s response: “No fix” despite warranty. Safety impact: Increased collision risk.
While driving on a two lane highway at approximately 60 MPH the powersteering on my truck failed with warning lights on the dash. I limped it to a town where I could get it scanned and they could not figure out the issue. The issue was intermittent for a few days until it was non-stop. It took over a month to get the reconfigured part from GM to complete the repair, GM had to reconfigure the part to fix the issue I was having. A faulty powersteering control module was the probelm and it required replacement of the entire steering rack and alignment. GM is aware of this issue clearly due to their choice to rework the affected part, but not issuing a recall in light of the issue to take full repsonsibility/reimburse customers that have suffered monetary damage due to their failure to propperly engeineer parts.
Power loss at lower gearing speeds and also separator loss of motion when applying gas to make truck move after complete stops. Also blind spot monitoring glitch saying vehicles are beside randomly when no traffic nearby issue to safety by drivability problems and safety components effecting correct monitoring of surroundings.check engine light also has been on more then 2 - 5 times dealer always stating due to sensors in driving components.has been inspected numerous times for similar issues with check engine lights and drive ability issues with loading power random times unsure of where problem exactly resides. Main vehicle for transportation for infant cannot have safety or mechanical issues u resolved but GMC has not corrected this problem at this time and when taking to dealership they asking for charges for inspection of power issues.
The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. While utilizing Super Cruise on the interstate in stop and go traffic conditions, the vehicle will come to a complete halt and jerk (as though you I slammed on the breaks). This has happened approximately 4 times and each time, driving conditions were good and during hours of daylight. The halt is very violent and causes the vehicle behind me to slam on their breaks. The latest instance occurred on Tuesday May 29, 2025 and forced the vehicle behind me to swerve off of the road. The emergency breaking warning does not sound nor is there a reason for it to do so as it has happened when the vehicle in front of me is moving with traffic and has not slowed down or applied breaks. The super cruise system also does not disengage or say that the road information is unavailable. The vehicle simply comes to an abrupt halt, to the point where if things are in the seats they will fly forward and then the system behaves as though nothing has happened. Traveling speeds vary between 10-20 mph when it malfunctions. The problem has not been reproduced and it shouldn't because it is a serious safety hazard for the driver and other commuters on the road. I was told a module software update would fix the issue however that did not. There were no warning lights that occurred prior to any of the instances.
The contact owns a 2022 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that while depressing the brake pedal, the transmission would downshift, and the vehicle was aggressively shaking while idling and while depressing the brake pedal. While driving approximately 35 - 40 MPH, the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Service message was displayed, and the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the road, the vehicle was turned off for a while and then restarted to continue driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed that the crankshaft, bearings, and tie rods needed to be replaced due to engine failure. The engine was rebuilt and the vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 86,636.
repeated mechanical failures of my 2022 GMC Sierra AT4, which I purchased on October 26, 2024, with approximately 37,000 miles on the odometer. The adaptive cruse control is wonderful when it works but I have found even with the sensor clean the truck will slam on brakes on its own causing me to nearly be rear ended. It happens when driving into the sun and at night. I no longer trust adaptive cruse and use manual cruse. Within just 55 days of ownership, and after driving roughly 4,700 miles, the vehicle experienced a catastrophic engine failure without warning on December 20, 2024. This failure left the truck immobilized in a highly dangerous situation—stuck in the middle of a 65-mph highway at a red light, without the ability to shift into neutral and remove the vehicle from traffic. I was forced to activate the emergency flashers and exit the vehicle, standing helplessly on the side of the road while praying that oncoming drivers would see the truck in time to avoid a potentially deadly accident. The truck was towed to the dealership the following day, December 21, 2024, where it remained for an unacceptable 110 days awaiting a replacement engine. I finally took possession of the repaired vehicle on April 10, 2025. Shockingly, only two days later—after driving just 328 miles—the vehicle suffered a second catastrophic engine failure without warning. The truck is now inoperable once again, sitting in my driveway and in need of a third engine replacement. While the odometer currently reads 42,365 miles. This ongoing situation has been not only a major inconvenience, but also a significant safety concern and financial burden. I am extremely disappointed in the reliability and performance of this vehicle. This level of failure on a vehicle that is still under powertrain warranty is simply unacceptable.
My onstar is not working this is a hazard for me since the truck cannot be tracked if stolen or even worse if a accident does happen there is no way for onstar to help . My subscription is up to date and paid and now the dealer is telling me the truck has a issue with the onstar module
Issues- Front and Rear external safety camera system fails to display. Tailgate falls open on its own while in motion. This was a new purchased vehicle off the lot. Yes-Vehicle is available upon request for examination. Yes-Safety risk are imminent due to blind spots caused by inoperative cameras i.e. hitting unseen pedestrians crossing behind or in front and behind the vehicle.

I bought a new GMC, I received 3 vouchers for computer chips to be installed at a later time years ago. They have not provided them. They are selling new fully equipped vehicles with computers chips just fine. Can you handle and have GMC install their backlog of computer chips? There are many safety features that DO NOT work, like parking assit and basically all warnings like when backing up etc. They made me sign a form stating they are not responsible for safety issues stemming from this (our inability to sue) this should be illegal. Thanks.
The back-up/reverse cameras black out mid action and also once the vehicle is put in Reverse. During inclement weather conditions, a car stopped abruptly in front of me to avoid a huge pool of water on the highway and the forward collision braking system did not kick in and now the light is illuminated on the dash board and won't turn off.
After leaving my truck parked for a couple of hours over dinner I returned to find error messages stating "Service Power Steering / Drive With Care" and "Service ESC". I also received a notification from OnStar stating "Diagnostic Alert: Service the Antilock Braking System in your 2022 Sierra within 1 day." My power steering was non-functional, nor were any cruise control functions. Repeated stop / start cycles did not clear the errors or regain functionality. After parking overnight everything was functional, and the errors on the DIC were gone. Using a code scanner there were historical codes of U0131 and U0422.
The forward collision assist and lane keep assist are suddenly not working. This seems to be a software or eletrical issue.
Truck has the safety package on some point stop working bring the truck to the dealer but they don’t know how to figure out I need help with this.
Truck drove as expected with no prior warnings. We pulled over for road snacks/drinks upon starting the truck we got a whole slew of warnings and warning lights. The warnings included:. Service ESC, Service Trailer Brake System, Service Brake Assist, Steering Assist is reduced Drive with care and finally Brake System Failure 43 MPH top speed. The check engine light, Traction Control Off and BRAKE light stayed on. We slowly drove to an O'Reilly's and got the ODB Code P25A2 (1 of 2 stored) and P25A2 (2 of 2 pending). I then noticed I had an email notification from OnStar Advanced Diagnostics: This is a Diagnostic Alert for your GMC Sierra.
