“while driving my 2023 chevrolet bolt euv at approximately 136,594 miles, the vehicle suddenly began making severe mechanical clacking/grinding noises and vibrating heavily. i could no longer safely drive the vehicle at normal road speed and was only able to move it very slowly. fortunately, this occurred when traffic around me was light. if this fa…”

2026-09-09 · Steering

“the electric power steering / steering gear assembly exhibits mechanical binding ("sticky steering") and completely fails to return to center. when going around a curve in the road, the steering wheel "memorizes" or holds the turned angle and will not unwind or self-center like it used to and as i would expect it to. i'm having to apply continuous,…”

2026-09-02 · Steering

“the electric power steering (eps) rack has developed an internal binding at times, causing the steering wheel to sometimes fail to naturally return to the center position after completing both low-speed and highway-rate turns. instead of self-centering, the wheel holds its turned angle, forcing me to manually pull it back to straight-line navigatio…”

2026-09-01 · Steering

“steering rack: the internal components of the rack bind up and create heavy resistance, causing the wheel to lock into a turned position rather than gliding back on its own to maintain control. this issue forces you to manually pull the steering wheel back straight after every turn, making high-speed and everyday driving unpredictable and dangerous…”

“after completing a turn, the car's steering wheel does not fully return to center. it remains at 30 degrees under 10mph, 10-15 degrees at 20mph. dealer has claimed it is behaving as intended.…”

2026-08-14 · Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking · 💥 crash

“i was taking a left turn from [xxx] onto [xxx] in the outer (right) lane. as i was exiting the turn, the aeb went off suddenly without warning -- the car came to a sudden and complete stop. there were no cars or obstacles in the road ahead of us in either lane and so it is unclear what would cause the braking event. due to the sudden stop, a man…”

2026-08-11 · Steering

“when driving and turning, the steering wheel does not come back to center and the car keeps turning after releasing the steering wheel causing the car to veer off the road if not turned back manually. this is very unexpected and an unsuspecting driver might not realize this until too late. i am in the process of contacting the dealer i bought the …”
