My 2023 Silverado High Country ACC is flakey also.......

It will sense a car in the next lane over and slam on the brakes when I start to approach it.....had it do the same with a car entering the freeway on the acceleration lane and putting myself and vehicle behind me in a panic situation that was completely unnecessary.  

 

It's a hazard in itself IMHO........talk about getting rear ended when the brakes are slammed on for no reason.

Turn it off.......drive alert and use your own senses, not some computer and camera.  

 

Perhaps the dealer needs to re-align the camera that is in front of the rearview mirror.

It’s happening on both sides of the vehicle explain that???

not sure how that could be an alignment issue….

Might not be the adaptive cruise, but the truck is seeing something that is causing emergency braking to kick in or has a faulty camera or sensor sending a signal so the truck 'thinks' something is there. 

 

All '23 1500 pickups have UHY and UKJ

......or it's a piss poor design and/or implementation. Try mentioning it to the dealer and they say it works just fine. 

During a test drive of a different 2023 High Country than I purchased, with the sales guy in the vehicle, it did the same thing. Excuses from the salesman abound. 

 

Turn it off and problem fixed.....not worth the hassle or safety issues it presents.

My brand new 2023 Chevy Colorado ZR2 has been randomly braking, slaming from 75 down to 40. Absolutely nothing around. Clear day, straight roads. I've had it in 4 times, 2 different dealerships. Their solution...they disabled the feature. A safety feature option I paid for. I contacted GM corporate, they contacted the dealerships who said the feature works as it should. If it's working as it should, why disable it?

Hello, SHERYL SKRZYPCZAK. Please know our team is only an email away if you are ever in need of assistance. Thank you and have a great day.

This has happened several times on my fathers 2023 Chev Silverado.

Solution: Dealer says turn off adaptive cruise control. 

Asked about a refund - they offered a free oil change.

Someone is going to be killed due to this problem...I suppose that is when they will be force to do something about it.

I have a 2021 Silverado High Country. Great truck. But the ACC has tweaked on me as well but only when going uphill. It's as if the computer is interpreting the road as captured by the camera as a collision threat and then braked very hard causing me to have to turn the cruise off as quickly as possible to regain speed and actually avoid someone from colliding with me from behind! Then...the ACC won't rearm for several minutes thereafter for some reason. It's frustrating since I do like the feature even though I don't rely on it to text or otherwise not stay alert. There are too many "non-alert" drivers out there already to do that! It doesn't sound like there is a universal diagnosis of the problem or fix either. Someone mentioned using cruise control without ACC. I guess I didn't realize that was possible on a vehicle equipped with ACC. How exactly is that done? Thanks!

When it activates, the text box that comes up should indicate which mode it is in, and how to change modes. 

 

It's also in the owners manual

(this is from a '23 manual, but it operated the same on my '21)

      Cam chain tensioner question

      By B14Sierra · Posted

      So I'm in the middle of a DOD AFM delete on my 6.2 L86 Sierra. I had a pick holding the tensioner but after I got the Cam phaser gear off I was cleaning off all the rtv and apparently I didn't have the pick seated far enough in. I bumped it and the tensioner sprang forward.  I think everything is good but I want a second opinion. The top of the tensioner is just a looped piece of plastic that rides in that channel right? There is no spring or anything is there? I got the gear and chain back on and it seems tight and everything looks right. I'm hoping nothing fell out.

      No low range 4 x 4

      By dna9656 · Posted

      My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions.

      I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.
