THE BRAKES HAVE NOW FOUR TIMES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. WHEN PRESSED THEY GET HARD, THEN GO DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND THERE'S A PULSATING FEELING. THE VEHICLE JUST CONTINUES TO GO TO THE FLOOR. ON THE THIRD OCCASION THAT IT HAPPENED, THE VEHICLE IN A NON-EMERGENCY SITUATION, WOULD NOT STOP IN TRAFFIC AND REAR-ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE. IT IS DANGEROUS AND GM IS NO HELP.

Multiple rim cracks due to manufacturing error. General Motors had acknowledged this but not made reimbursement possible nor provided information if defective rims are still being produced. My car was inspected and rim was repaired by a Chevy dealer and confirmed to have a cracked rim in several spots deemed not due to road damage or driver error. Wheel issues can pose an extreme safety threat as a crack in the rim could make the tire unstable thus creating unsafe driving conditions … cracks in rims can be hard to see at all as well

Inside lip of rear wheel cracked and wheel bent beyond repair, per wheel repair company. OEM make and model tire was in place and no noticeable impact was felt to cause this failure. This caused an air leak leaving me stranded at the side of the highway. Had to buy an expensive replacement wheel.

Purchased the vehicle February 2018. In September 2019, I replaced the tires and within a few days, I started losing air pressure. Both rear wheels cracked. I tried to get GM to honor the 36 month bumper to bumper warranty but they refused. I purchased replacement wheels at my own expense. In June 2022, after 9000 miles, the car started driving rough so I brought it to the dealership. Both the driver side wheels, front and back, are bent.
