i was traveling on cruise control at 60 mph when i clicked down to 55 mph at speed change. a couple minutes later the brakes slammed on hard enough to have the front wheels chirping i dont know if rear brakes came on but i went from 55 down to under 30 in a hard panic braking. this threw my wife up aganist her seat belt since she has had a stroke her resistanse to the hard slow down was low. i stepped on the gas and the brakes released i cant remember if i re engaged the cruise control or if it never disingaged. the other thing that happened was the warning about not using the info display while driving came up this only happens now and than when you start the car. so i suspect i had a momentary power lose in that circuit and what ever else is tied in to the info center im retired but i worked in mechanical engr all my life so i have some knowledge of systems

I was driving about 45 mph and I heard a noise. Engine said speed reduce. When I went to brake the car hard no power brake and was very difficult to stop. It can not be drive because I have no brakes

The electronic speed control suddenly stopped working and no longer functions. The automatic stop feature causes the vehicle to lurch forward suddenly when you press the gas peddle following a stop. The dynamic braking suddenly engages while driving at highway speeds on the interstate and there are no other vehicles or obstructions in the area.

When rear E- brakes are wet they lock up and make a loud sound. This happens after a hard rain or if you go thru the car wash with the under carriage option and release the E-brake after parking.

While driving along with the cruise control set at 70 mi/hr on a clear day with no other cars within 500 ft., except for one on the inside lane behind us, the brakes suddenly came on hard and only released after it slowed the car down to 60 mi/hr. The red led's did not come on and the driver's seat did not vibrate. The service advisor I spoke with said he drove a 2019 Equinox to omaha and had the same thing happen. He thought I may have hit a bug that caused it, but the camera lens was clear. I was traveling straight on highway #63 South of rochester, mn. When it happened.
