Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC) filed November 25, 2025
NHTSA complaint #2151818 (ODI reference 11701463) concerns a 2026 GMC SIERRA EV and was filed on November 25, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on September 11, 2025. The vehicle had 4,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to California based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electronic stability control (esc), one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same GMC SIERRA EV cohort independently describe similar electronic stability control (esc) failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data.
