Chevy Adaptive Cruise Control Temporarily Unavailable - Anyone Else Facing This?

Yes, I heard that too! It would be nice if Chevy rolled out updates more frequently to avoid these issues.

This has definitely made me rethink my driving techniques. I’ve been more focused on manual control and paying closer attention to speed limits.

That’s a good point! I’ve also started using cruise control manually more often when I can. It’s a bit more work, but it’s safer.

I’ve found the lack of adaptive cruise a bit concerning, especially with traffic. It can feel a lot more stressful to maintain a safe following distance without it.

Anyone have tips for staying calm while driving in heavy traffic without adaptive cruise? I feel like I have to concentrate so much more.

It’s a relief to know I’m not alone in this! I also find that stopping more frequently on long trips helps manage fatigue without ACC.

Great idea! I’ve started planning more breaks too—it makes the journey feel less taxing.

Honestly, sometimes I just wish they’d put a clear warning up when the ACC is unavailable instead of just a pop-up message. It can feel confusing.

Yes! It would help to know when it’s going to be a problem so I can adjust my plans accordingly.

You all make good points. I think we should give Chevy feedback and request that they improve communication about these features.

Absolutely! The more they hear from us, the better they can address these issues.

I had the same issue last week with my Chevy. I found that turning off the cruise control and restarting the car fixed the problem temporarily. It was a bit inconvenient, but manageable!

That’s great to hear! I haven’t had much luck with that method; resetting didn’t do anything for me. I’ve noticed it helps to drive slower until it resets itself, but that’s not ideal.

I read that sometimes the radar sensors can get blocked by dirt or debris. I clean mine regularly, which seems to help keep things working smoothly. Anyone else tried this?

That makes sense! I usually forget to clean mine, but when I do, it seems to help. Just had it happen again today though.

I’ve had this issue on and off for months! My dealership couldn’t find anything wrong. It makes me question the reliability of this feature.

I hear you, Julie. It’s frustrating, especially when you rely on it during long commutes. Have you tried resetting your vehicle settings? Sometimes that clears up temporary glitches.

Resetting didn’t work for me. I ended up using standard cruise control instead; it wasn’t the same, but at least I didn’t have to keep my foot on the pedal!

That sounds like a good workaround! I also heard that sometimes a software update can fix issues like these. Anyone else experienced that?
