What component failed: The “regen on demand” switch broke while using it. Safety: This incident put me, the occupants of my vehicle (my children), and the vehicles around me at risk. Reproduction: There was no need. It is exceptional obvious that the switch is broken and has failed. Inspection: The truck and broken switch were observed by the dealership that services the truck. Warnings: There were no precursors to the failure. Narrative: On Thursday, 7/16/26, I was driving my 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV. I normally drive in “single pedal drive” mode which provides energy recovery in lieu of mechanical braking. Additionally, I use the “on demand regeneration” for additional slowing and energy recovery. On demand regeneration is somewhere between single pedal drive and mechanical brakes. During this drive I was coming up to stopped traffic and slowing using the regen on demand switch. The switch snapped / broke and the additional slowing / energy recovery stopped instantly. I had to immediately apply the brakes in order to remain a safe distance from the vehicles in front of me. While I am able to safely operate the vehicle without this function, the manner in which the failure occurred is concerning and should be investigated. I am happy to speak with anyone who needs more information.

While driving at an undisclosed speed, the adaptive cruise control set speed independently changed. No warning lights were illuminated. The adaptive cruise control was set at 65 MPH, and the adaptive cruise control independently reset to 42 MPH. In addition, on another occasion, the adaptive speed control was set at 65 MPH, however the adaptive cruise control independently reset to 80 MPH. The adaptive cruise control and the failure reoccurs based upon the front camera interpreting the speed limit signs on the roadway. The adaptive cruise control adjusts the speed based on the interpretation of the speed limit sign and the difference between the prior speed limit sign at the set speed. For example the last read speed limit sign was 65 MPH. Adaptive cruise control was set to 75 MPH, a 10 MPH difference. The newest detected speed limit sign was misread at 75. The adaptive cruise control independently changed to 85. The same occurs when the misread speed limit sign was misread at 45 MPH. The adaptive cruise control would independently change to 55 MPH from a 75 MPH previously set speed. The random failures almost caused the vehicle to be rear-ended. The failure occurs several times and usually at dusk, dawn, or at night. To override this random behavior, I disabled the speed limit detection/display feature.
