Summary
I am writing to formally document a series of unresolved mechanical issues with my vehicle, culminating in a complete transmission failure, and to request assistance in resolving this matter. The timeline of events is detailed below: *Winter 2024: I first noticed a persistent buzzing sound originating from the engine compartment. Because this symptom primarily occurred during low ambient temperatures, I initially attributed it to the cold weather. The mileage on this vehicle was around 50k miles. *Spring 2024: I contacted the dealership to report the noise. I was advised that the issue was likely related to a worn belt. Subsequent inspection, however, proved this diagnosis to be incorrect, and the root cause of the noise remained unresolved. *Fall 2024: The engine buzzing returned. Concurrently, a severe driveability issue emerged. On multiple occasions after shifting from Park to Drive, the vehicle failed to engage the gear properly, behaving as though it were in Neutral and preventing any acceleration. This would occur while driving and stopped at redlights, which posed a major safety concern as I was transporting my newborn and young child with me. * February 2025: The vehicle became entirely inoperable. Unfortunately, this failure occurred around 62k miles, AFTER my 60k mile warranty expired, (which i was unaware of). Given that these symptoms began during the winter of 2024 and were reported to the dealership early on, it is clear that the initial diagnostics failed to identify a developing and critical transmission defect. I conducted research and discovered this is a recurring issue with Toyota
Highlanders, and other vehicles with the model UA80 transmission. Toyota
posted a service bulletin, extending vehicles from 2017 & 2018 but have yet to address the 2019 through current models to date with reports of the same transmission issues.

Summary
Driving the vehicle down the highway at approximately 65 miles per hour, the check engine light came on and the engine went into limp mode, slowing immediately. Upon getting the vehicle to the left shoulder on a busy highway, the vehicle displayed "engine overheating", "battery low", and 0% oil life. A full oil and filter change had been done less than 1000 miles ago and upon checking the oil, it was at the correct level. The engine completely failed and is not being replaced at a Chevrolet
dealership. I completed the recall N252494003 on March 5th, 2026 which comprised of an engine inspection, higher viscosity oil, a new oil cap, filter replacement, and owner's manual insert. The engine still failed and required replacement despite having this done.

Summary
The main infotainment screen provides the critical safety rear view display screen for the rear view camera. This is a legally required function for this vehicle, a 2027 Chevrolet
Bolt RS. The failure of the screen means that a clear view towards the back of the vehicle is unavailable. Reversing without the display is hazardous and may result in hitting an object, animal, or person. Online Chevrolet
customer service suggested a soft reset. This did not solve the problem. The problem has been intermittent, but is now permanent. The vehicle, which has only 500 miles and is under its new car warranty, was brought back to a Chevrolet dealer. The dealer disassembled the screen and confirmed the screen failure. The dealer does not have the part. The manufacturer doesn't have the part. The dealer is ordering it from a 3rd party. There is no estimated time for receiving the part.

Summary
On many occasions in the year we have owned our Tesla Model Y, we have experienced sudden, unexplained braking while using the Traffic Aware Cruise Control (TACC) feature. We have experienced several near-misses of cars or semi tractor trailers rear-ending us. These incidents were avoided by quick reaction of the Tesla
driver to override the TACC. I have documented several incidents using the dash camera on the car and have assembled a spreadsheet of times and places of occurrence that correspond to the videos. One Tesla
service representative dismissed my complaint by saying the feature is working as designed, so nothing further was done. A representative at a different dealership acknowledged that it is a known characteristic in the current firmware and they expect it to be addressed in a future software update. As I said, we have been experiencing this for over a year. It is a clear safety hazard, not only for the Tesla
driver and passengers, but also for any vehicle following who has to react to the sudden, unexpected braking.
