FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
Unexpected braking at highway speeds. This has at least 50 times at highway speeds. The truck has experienced repeated false Forward Collision Alerts and un-commanded Automatic Emergency Braking events. Adaptive Cruise Control frequently detects roadside objects and vehicles in adjacent lanes, particularly on curves. The vehicle has never had windshield replacement, front-end damage, suspension modifications, or aftermarket accessories. This is creating a safety hazard because the truck brakes unexpectedly in traffic at any speed.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
On 3 separate instances the past few months the truck slammed on brakes for no apparent reason. And 2 separate times the past week or so the truck suddenly and uncontrollably accelerated — first at gas a station convenience store and almost ran over old lady, secondly while waiting line on arterial entrance ramp!

LANE DEPARTURE: BLIND SPOT DETECTION
The side mirrors have spider cracked from some type of electrical issue. This is the 2nd time this happened and it burns both mirrors at the same time. The mirrors become unusable and it appears The dealer replaced them under warranty the first time and the second time they said it is out of warranty so I had to pay out of pocket.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
The systems have become unavailable. Took to dealership and they were told it just needed a software update. Dealer performed update GM sent and did not work. Dealer was told GM engineers would need to find a fix. I complained to GM and asked that they replace the cameras, especially because the vehicle is under warranty, and I was told no because that won't fix the issue. They don't even know what needs to be done to fix the issue though, but won't try a camera swap. They told me I need to take it back to the dealer so they can run diagnostics on it when the issue happens. I don't know what is so hard to understand that the issue is always there; the systems don't work and my dash always has the light the forward collision system not on and given a message when I start the truck that it is not available. This began to be an issue around 9000 miles. It first started by saying window camera blocked due to frost, but when it was clear, and I cleaned every camera and sensor, it still would not come on. This was 1.5 months ago. I don't understand why they are not trying to expedite fixing this safety issue. The dealer can't do anything until GM tells them to change out camera or send another fix, but there is no software fix available. I can forward emails between myself and GM and you can clearly see they are not listening. If that would be helpful, please let me know how to forward them.
