Mileage: 38523 Engine Not Available Service Soon Propulsion Power Is Reduced Fuel Range Low: 3/4 Tank full of gas [XXX] - I was driving Northbound on [XXX] South of Castlewood in Northern California. I was driving 70 mph when I suddenly received the error messages above on my dashboard screen. The vehicle immediately had power from 70 mph quickly going below 59 mph. The traffic was extremely high and I had to quickly use my hazard flashes and carefully maneuver to the right shoulder of the frwy. The vehicle lost power so quickly I could have easily been rear ended or in a serious vehicle accident. The dealer test drove the vehicle and stated they received the errors at 95 mph. The dealership is recommending I have the entire transmission replaced with the assembly and the 45,000 mile maintenance. No other warning lamps, messages or symptoms or failures occurred. First occurrence [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

'shift to park' issue. After powering off car I get an alert on dashboard that looks like this 'see image'. this happens even though the vehicle is set to park. Vehicle will not turn off until jiggling the shift handle or turning on car and re setting shift handle to park. Recurring issue.

Leasing 2019 Chevy Volt from dgdg Chevy: End of September -- major safety issue (brakes): End of September 2019, the vehicle had limited brake power (check engine light on and traction control disabled). When braking, the car makes very loud (system noise) and skids while braking. After nearly crashing the car couple of times in the highway (due to very poor braking), car was turned into Chevy dgdg and problem was confirmed. Car was returned back second week of October and initial issues went away. First week of December 2019 -- more brake problems / risk to drivers brake issue had returned (limited brake power; skids while braking, makes loud beeping noise, check engine light on/traction control off). I bought it back to the same dealership, after nearly rear ending few cars due to the malfunction of the brake. Issue was confirmed and was in the shop for over 70days+. car was returned after replacing the brake system. First week of February 2020, same issue occurred after less than week of receiving my car back (took more than 70days in the shop). Same issue, brakes are not functioning properly, almost rear ended someone again, as a result of it. Shop is taking a look at it again. I'm writing this report in hopes of gaining attention of this major safety issue which is putting my life, and others at risk, working with Chevy. I have the fear that this problem can occur again, based on previous attempts, and no real resolution.
