My 2018 LT has 15,500 km on it, and it's been great. I only had the active shutters fail early on (they were replaced under warranty).
However I notice when I have to suddenly brake at very low speeds I feel a sort of small slip/bump in the brake pedal for a second.
I can re-create it very easily. It happens when you are pulling out of a parking space, for example, then you suddenly have to stop because someone is walking in front of your car. So you just start to pull out then you immediately have to brake and stop. I'm sure it's happened to all of us. When you slowly pull out then suddenly slam the brakes - that is when I feel the slight slip (feels like a thump) on the pedal and then the car recovers after about 1/2 a second.
Many have said it's because it is changing from regen to friction brakes...but it still feels weird to me, almost like something is slightly loose. Anyway, it may be nothing...just curious does your Gen2 Volt do the same thing? Usually I am in L mode when driving in parking lots.
My dealer is going to investigate it (apparently they are in contact with the GM mother ship about it) and take my car for 2 days next week. I don't mind that (they are giving me a loaner)...but I am wondering if others have experienced this...
Thanks
