On [xxx] My cousin, [XXX], and I were on highway [XXX] and were about to exit when an ambulance exited onto the highway ahead causing the traffic to suddenly stop. As it stopped, I hit my brake, which usually jolts when I hit it but it didn't this time, the brake didn't feel the same it felt like my car wasn't stopping. The warning that usually goes off didn't go off either. My car hit a Jeep that was in front of me at a speed of about 55 to 60 mph yet none of my airbags diployed. We smelled fire and saw some smoke but couldn't see over the hood that had been bent up, both of our seatbealts had been stretched out so that when we took them off, we could not put them back on, and the adjuster I had on my seatbealt to keep it off my shoulder completely broke off. I pull over as far as I could safely since I couldn't see. The driver of the Jeep got out of her car and inspected it, she came back to the passenger side of my car and said that she was in a rental, there was no damage and couldn't afford to turn in accident in so she had to leave, and left the scene. Both my cousin and I were feeling pain in our chest so when 1st responder came, he called for an ambulance. We were both taken to Eskenazi ER where my cousin was treated and released the same day. I was admitted into the hospital ICU and had emergency spinal cord surgery on [XXX] and wasn't released until [XXX]. After the accident, I saw a few messages that were sent to my GMC account inbox dated October 8, 2025 saying that my airbags may need to be serviced, after the accident happened.

When it rains and or I wash my car, going down the road after at about 35-50 with my sunroof vented or window cracked about an inch, the car makes an awful sound like im gurgling out of a straw. Just completed a buyback with a 24 trax 2rs and got a 25 2rs with the same sunroof issue. Engineers say its the drain lines being pinched in the pillars but still have yet to get a solution and have to start all over with my new lemon.

While driving, all of a sudden dash went blank. No gauges, no speedometer, just a blank screen. I was near the dealer where I had purchased it and drove in. Service dept was closing but a mechanic disconnected the battery and reconnected it and the dash worked. The mechanic said he never heard of this happening before, but when I got home and researched it it has happened before. My wife uses the car to transport our grandkids, and I cannot imagine the screen going blank on the freeway at 65.

Vehicle-??s digital dash will go completely black, will not respond to touches, radio will intermittently disconnect from Apple CarPlay. Radio replaced, problem persists. Yes the problem has been duplicated on numerous occasions by two separate dealerships and no resolution has been reached. No warning lights, no notifications, just sudden disconnection and reconnection or disconnection without any reconnection of device with non-responsiveness and occasional blacking out of screen on car. This has been ongoing since the purchase of the vehicle in May 2024, still no resolution.

I-??ve had my 2025 Chevy tracks for less than a year at first having issues in January 2025. I was driving back from my son-??s birthday party and the entire dash just went black. I could not see the mile per hour I was going and I could not see my radio my entire front dash just blacked out for almost a minute. I was driving at the speed of 70 miles an hour when this occurred putting myself and others at risk I was able to pull over on the side of the highway to see the issue going on with my vehicle. I turned off my vehicle and turned it back on thank you. Maybe that would resolve the issue, but it clearly didn-??t. I contact GM. I contact the dealership Dutch Miller and explain to them the issue that did did occur. I took it into a shop. The dealership looked at it. They updated it the system in my car. Which I thought that resolved the issue for a few months and now I-??m back to the dash going black when I-??m driving, took it back to the dealership again and they said that they couldn-??t find any issues and we just gotta wait until a recall occurs with GM. Been contacting General motors about this issue. This is a safety hazard and extremely dangerous when you-??re going speed limit at high speed and you cannot see anything on your dash it is terrifying and scary especially when you have your family in the car. Hopefully GM gets this fixed. It-??s a brand new car should not have any issues.

The backup camera becomes a "fishbowl" along with inability to use radio features. Happens often. There are numerous forum topics via Facebook and Reddit about it happening. Dealership is no help.

The interior of this car includes many chrome accents. Chrome on the steering wheel, center console around the gear shift, and chrome around the touch screen. When driving, the sun reflects off of the chrome like a laser/mirror, impacting the visibility and safety of the driver. I am looking into ways to "black out" the chrome, but it truly is a safety hazard! Chevrolet should provide a "chrome delete" kit and keep chrome on the EXTERIOR, not on the INTERIOR.

I am very unsure what is going on, but when I am in reverse my whole dash loudly rattles and vibrates the whole car. My front door speakers also keep going out with makes me think we may have a wiring issue.
