Motor Vehicle Maintenance & Repair Asked by DarkerIvy on June 24, 2021
I have a 2016 Chevrolet Suburban (Z71). How do I disable HSA? After $6,000 in transmission and brake repairs due to HSA, I would really like to turn it off.
Here is the problem:
This morning it engaged on a hill and, after the hill, I was flooring it to stay with traffic at 40mph. After a couple of miles, I pulled over, shut the vehicle off, and when I started again it had released.
HSA has also engaged itself while driving on the freeway several times (vehicle starts shuddering, slows way down, and starts smoking). I end up on the shoulder turning the vehicle off and back on to be able to move freely. Sometimes I have to pull over several tries before it releases completely.
I attribute an early transmission replacement and several brake jobs to this malfunctioning HSA.
What I’ve tried:
I have a Buick. I can not turn it off but on the settings I can choose between normal and extended hill assist. If I put the settings to extended hill assist, the parking brake will engage after a predetermined amount of time. If you have these settings, you might want to be sure the settings are not set to extended. Might help, might not. Another cause for your condition may be an intermittent brake switch failure. If the brake switch is on, the and the car is on an angle it thinks it needs to turn on hill assist. But I would think the speedometer would also have to read 0 for it to activate. Is your speedometer working?
