GM HAS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH DASHBOARDS CRACKING NEAR WHERE THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLES. THERE IS ALSO CRACKING ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE INSTRUMENT POD. ALL CRACKS ARE IN IDENTICAL AREAS OF THESE SAME MODEL YEARS AND NEWER. I HAVE TWO VEHICLES (2007 TAHOE AND 2007 AVALANCHE WITH THE SAME CRACKS AND WILL FILE TWO COMPLAINTS). *TR UPDATED 01/29/14

"SERVICE TRACTION" CAME ON AND WITHIN SECONDS THE POWER STEERING LEFT AND THE BRAKES SEEMED AS IF THEY WERE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THANK GOD THERE WAS NOT A LOT OF TRAFFIC!! I GOT OVER AS THE ENGINE SPUTTERED AND FINALLY DIED. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A TRAGEDY!! I HAVE READ MANY ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE REALLY GETS HURT!! *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE TAKEN MY 2008 TAHOE LTZ TO THE GMC DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES TO REPAIR THE DOOR LOCKS / OUTER DOOR HANDLES. I HAVE HAD TWO OF THE DOOR LOCKS REPLACED BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT UNLOCK WHEN I HIT THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE DOORS OR THE KEY FOB. THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT IN THIS VEHICLE. IT IS A SAFETY CONERN BECAUSE I HAVE A SMALL CHILD AND I AM AFRAID IF I WERE TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT AND I TRY TO UNLOCK THE DOORS THEY WILL FAIL AND I WILL BE UNABLE TO GET MY CHILD OUT WITHOUT CRAWLING OVER THE FRONT SEATS TO MANUALLY UNLOCK THE LOCK. THE SAME WITH THE OUTER DOOR HANDLES BREAKING. I HAVE HAD TWO OF THOSE REPLACED. I HAD TO CRAWL OVER THE PASSENGER SEAT AT ONE POINT TO BE ABLE TO GET IN THE VEHICLE UNTIL I COULD GET IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND SEE THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THESE ISSUES, YET THERE ARE NO RECALLS. PLEASE HELP US. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN; I AM WRITING BECAUSE I HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THE DOOR LOCKS ON OUR 2008 CHEVY TAHOE. WE HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE DOOR LOCKS IN THE PAST AS WE HAVE HAD TO LITERALLY CLIMB OUT OF THE WINDOW TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE. WE HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE DOOR LOCKS AGAIN AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE CHEVY SERVICE THIS MORNING. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE REP SAID THE CHARGES ARE $300 PLUS. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 84,470 MILES. THIS PROBLEM IS HUGE CONSIDERING THAT YOU CAN NOT GET OUT OF THE CAR ONCE A LOCK COMPLETELY FAILS IN THAT YOU HAVE TO CLIMB OUT OF THE WINDOW TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. ALSO THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW HAS BEEN MAKING GRINDING NOISES WHEN IT IS USED OPEN AND CLOSE. AS THIS IS ALSO ANOTHER SIMILAR ISSUE THAT OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT. MY QUESTION IS WHY IS THIS SO HARD TO RECALL AND FIX? BEING THAT WE SPENT GOOD EARN MONEY TO BUY THIS VEHICLE AND VERY MUCH LOYAL TO CHEVY'S VEHICLES. WHAT HAPPENED TO TAKING CARE OF YOUR LOYAL CUSTOMERS? A RECALL SHOULD BE INDEED INITIATED TO SETTLE THESE REPEATED ISSUES WITH THESE VEHICLES SO CUSTOMERS CAN FEEL THAT CHEVORLET IS INDEED LOYAL TO THEIR CUSTOMERS AS WE ARE LOYAL TO PURCHASE THEIR VEHICLES. MONEY ISN'T EVERYTHING HOWEVER TAKING CARE OF YOUR CUSTOMERS CAN GO A LIFETIME. IT STARTS WITH THE CUSTOMERS FIRST. *TR

THE PASSENGER DOOR HANDLE BROKE FROM THE SCREW HOUSING AND NOT THE HANDLE ITSELF. CHEVY'S RESPONSE: PULL TOO HARD ON DOOR HANDLE, $ 200 REPAIR COST TO REPLACE HANDLE. THE DASHBOARD IN FRONT OF THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED CRACKING AND RUNNING TOWARDS THE STEERING WHEEL. CHEVY'S RESPONSE: SOME TIME THE HEAT WILL DO THAT. $ 950 REPAIR COST FOR NEW DASHBOARD. MY TAHOE IS IN TOP SHAPE, WASHED TWICE A WEEK INSIDE AND OUT AND IS GARAGED? I DON'T KNOW WHY THE SIMPLE THINGS ARE SO CHEAP? *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE
I WAS DRIVING ON THE LONG ISLAND EXPRESSWAY ( 495) AT ABOUT 2 PM ON 1/28/13, I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE AT ABOUT 65MPH WHEN SUDDENLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND A MESSAGE CAME UP SAYING, SERVICE STABILITRAK, THEN ENGINE POWER REDUCED. THIS CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN TO THAT 65MPH TO ABOUT 35 RAPIDLY. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE OVER AND PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ONCE I STOPPED THE CAR IT WAS IDLING VERY ROUGH. I TURNED OFF MY CAR AND TURNED IT BACK ON AND WAS ABLE TO RESET MY COMPUTER. I WENT TO MY MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A 2135 ERROR CODE( A THROTTLE BODY SENSOR ISSUE). *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
FAILURE OF ALL FOUR POWER DOOR LOCKS ON MY 2008 TAHOE. AT ALMOST EXACTLY 3 YEARS AND 30,000 MILES OF OWNERSHIP, THE DOOR LOCKS OF MY, PURCHASED NEW, 2008 TAHOE LTZ BEGAN TO FAIL. ALL FOUR LOCKS FAILED WITHIN 12 MONTHS OF EACH OTHER. THE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 40,000 MILES AND FOUR YEARS OF SERVICE AT THE LAST AND FINAL (4TH) FAILURE. CONCERN: (#1) THERE IS ONLY ONE MANUAL KEYED ENTRY LOCATED ON THE VEHICLE WHICH IS THE DRIVERS DOOR. IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY AND TOTAL ELECTRONIC LOCK FAILURE, THE ONLY PASSENGER DOOR ACCESS WOULD BE THROUGH THE DRIVERS DOOR UTILIZING THE KEY AND MANUAL LOCK/UNLOCK FEATURE. IF THE MANUAL LOCK WERE TO ALSO FAIL, THERE WOULD BE NO WAY TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE VEHICLE THROUGH ANY OF THE FOUR PASSENGER DOORS. RESTRICTED ACCESS TO THE VEHICLE COULD COST THE LIFE OF A CHILD, ADULT PASSENGER OR PET TRAPPED IN THE VEHICLE. THE SYSTEM COULD BE DESIGNED SAFER WITH A REDUNDANT MANUAL LOCK LOCATED ON ANOTHER DOOR. ADDITIONALLY, THE ELECTRONIC LOCKING MECHANISMS CURRENTLY INSTALLED ARE INADEQUATE AND UNSAFE. THE COMMON FAILURE OF THESE SYSTEMS ELIMINATES THE ARGUMENT OF ELECTRONIC REDUNDANCY FOR THE SYSTEM SINCE THE INSTALLED PRODUCT IS FAULTY AND UNRELIABLE. WHY SHOULD WE BE FORCED TO ACCEPT THESE UNSAFE PRODUCTS/DESIGNS ON OUR VEHICLES? CONCERN: (#2) THE COST OF REPLACING A LOCK HAS BEEN QUOTED BETWEEN $250 TO $450 PER LOCK FROM DIFFERENT FACILITIES. THE PRICING MAY INFLUENCE A GENERALLY SAFE MINED PERSON TO POSTPONE A REPAIR WHICH IMPACTS THE REDUNDANCY FEATURE OF THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM. NOTE: THESE LOCKS TYPICALLY BEGIN TO FAIL IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRES. AND, GM CORPORATION IS UNWILLING TO HELP WITH THE COST AND WASTED TIME TO DEAL WITH THE ISSUE. FURTHER INVESTIGATION BY THE NHTSA IS WARRANTED AND I FEEL A RECALL SHOULD BE MANDATED. *TR

WHEELS, STRUCTURE, TIRES:TEMPORARY/EMERGENCY SPARE TIRE
YOU CAN NOT LOWER THE SPARE TIRE,UNDER THE VEHICLE,THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM AND I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS PROBLEM, THE PART THAT HOLDS THE SPARE TIRE HAS A SPRING LOADED LOCK ON IT THAT CANNOT RELEASE BECAUSE OF A BAD DESIGN OFF IT,THEIR IS A VIDEO ON YOUTUBE ABOUT IT (GOOD INFORMATION ABOUT IT) YOU NEED TO CUT THE TIRE DOWN WITH A CUTTING TORCH, THIS IS A BAD IDEA AROUND A GAS TANK, I CAN NOT EXPRESS HOW MAD I AM RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I CAN'T EVEN THINK OF THAT MANY CUSS WORDS,AND IT IS GOING INTO HEART A TACK MODE, I WOULD LOVE TO MEET THE ENGINEER THAT DESIGNED THIS, AND HAVE HIM CHANGE THE TIRE, FIRST YOU NEED A TOW TRUCK THEN A SHOP WITH A LIFT THEN TWO MECHANICS IF NOT THREE AND YOU THEN NEED A TRANSMISSION JACK TO PUT UPWARD PRESSURE ON THE TIRE TO RELEASE THE TENSION OF THE LOCKING DEVICE THAT HOLDS THE TIRE, AFTER YOU LET THE AIR OUT OF THE TIRE, I CAN OVERHAUL THE ENGINE AND THE TRANSMISSION AND ANYTHING ELSE THAT NEED TO BE DONE TO THIS OR ANY OTHER CAR,BUT THIS IS A BIG BIG MISTAKE IN DESIGN,CAN YOU IMAGINE A LADY HAVING TO CHANGE A TIRE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD!!! IF A MECHANIC (MALE OR FEMALE) CANT DO IT,HOW CAN THE AVERAGE CONSUMER, DO IT? AND WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN A RECALL,I KNOW WHY IT HASN'T BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE FORCED TO PAY FOR IT AND FORGET IT,WELL I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE WITHOUT LOOKING FOR THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE MY WIFE AND DAUGHTERS AND SONS HAVE ALL BEEN PROPERLY TRAINED ON HOW TO HANDLE THIS PROBLEM,BUT IT CAN'T BE DONE ON THIS VEHICLE OR ANY OTHER CHEVY VEHICLE OF THIS MAKE FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, YOU CAN NOT DO THIS SAFELY,NO I DON'T HAVE A FLAT TIRE EITHER I WAS JUST EXPLAINING TO THE WIFE THAT IT MAY BE A LITTLE DIFFERENT SO I WANTED HER TO SEE IT JUST INCASE SHE HAD A PROBLEM AND SHE WOULD BE PREPARED ON HOW TO HANDLE IT (WRONG) IT SHOULD TAKE TEN OR FIFTEEN MINUTES TO DO, CAN'T BE DONE,AND I CAN'T BELIEVE IT PLEASE CONTACT ME. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND WENT TO STOP AND HAD LOST BRAKE POWER. ONE OF THE LINES RUNNING TO THE REAR BRAKES HAD RUPTURED DUE TO RUST/CORROSION. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT ALL OF MY BRAKE LINES AND FUEL LINES HAD RUSTED/CORRODED SO BAD THEY COULD NOT REPAIR JUST THE ONE BUT WOULD NEED TO REPLACE ALL OF THE LINES! *TR

WE PURCHASED OUR 2005 TAHOE BRAND NEW AND HAVE KEPT UP WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND IT HAS BEEN A GREAT, SAFE CAR. FOR CHRISTMAS WE WERE OUT OF TOWN VISITING FAMILY AND WHEN WE ARRIVED TO UNLOAD THE CAR, WE DISCOVERED THE LIFT GATE AND THE GLASS WERE STUCK IN THE LOCK POSITION. WE COULD NOT GET EITHER OPEN TO LOAD|UNLOAD OUR LUGGAGE AND|OR GIFTS. THERE IS NO MANUAL KEY HOLE IN THE BUTTON, WHICH I FIND ODD THAT SOME MODELS OF THE SAME YEAR HAS THEM AND SOME DON?T. I AM CONCERNED THAT SINCE I HAVE A 3RD ROW OF SEATS, AND IN MY EYES WITH PASSENGERS IN THE BACK ? THEY CANNOT GET OUT IF THERE IS AN EMERGENCY. TO ME, A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED FOR THE SAFETY OF THE INDIVIDUALS WHO RIDE IN THE VEHICLE AND GM SHOULD TAKE OWNERSHIP REGARDLESS OF WARRANTY OR NOT. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER FLUCTUATED OVER A PERIOD OF 2-3 DAYS, THEN STOPPED WORKING. I CALLED A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THIS IS A "KNOWN PROBLEM" WITH THIS VEHICLE AND THAT THERE WAS A CAMPAIGN. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS CAMPAIGN HAS LONG EXPIRED. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE DRIVER CANNOT TELL HOW FAST THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING. IT SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL. *TR

WE HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE DOOR LOCKS IN THE PAST AS WE HAVE HAD TO LITERALLY CLIMB OUT OF THE WINDOW TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE. IT HAPPENED WHILE ON A BOAT RAMP SO IT WAS AN INCREDIBLY MEMORABLE EVENT. WE HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE DOOR LOCKS AGAIN AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE CHEVY SERVICE THIS MORNING. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE REP CALLED US TO LET US KNOW THAT ALL 4 DOOR LOCKS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CHARGES ARE $350 FOR THE FRONT DOORS AND $250 FOR THE BACK DOORS. NEEDLESS TO SAY WE ARE NOT HAPPY ABOUT HAVING TO PAY FOR ANY ADDITIONAL DOOR LOCK WORK ON THIS VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 70,000 MILES. THIS PROBLEM IS HUGE CONSIDERING THAT YOU CAN NOT GET OUT OF THE CAR ONCE A LOCK COMPLETELY FAILS IN THAT YOU HAVE TO CLIMB OUT OF THE WINDOW TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. WE REQUEST THAT A RECALL BE INITIATED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
REAR BRAKE LINE RUSTED THROUGH AND LOST BRAKES. BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR LOSING 95% OF BRAKING ABILITY. I WASN'T IN THE CAR, WIFE WAS DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN. IF THIS HAD BEEN AT A HIGHER SPEED OR GOING DOWN A HILL I SHUTTER AT WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED. MECHANIC REPLACED 90% OF THE BRAKE LINES AS HE SAID THEY WERE IN BAD SHAPE. THOUSAND DOLLAR JOB. MY WIFE'S HIGHLANDER (OTHER VEHICLE) HAS 175K ON IT, SAME YEAR AND WE DON'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM, I WILL DOUBLE CHECK THEM THOUGH. I ASKED THE MECHANIC IF HE SEES A LOT OF TOYOTA'S IN HERE FOR BRAKE LINES, NOPE. THEY USE BETTER STUFF WITH A SPECIAL COATING. MOSTLY CHEVY, DODGE, FORD COME THROUGH. YOU WOULD THINK THESE MANUFACTURERS WOULD KNOW BETTER WITH SOME STATES BEING IN THE "SALT" BELT. *TR

I CURRENTLY OWN A 2008 CHEVY TAHOE. TODAY 1-17-13 , I HAD TO HAVE THE POWER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR REPLACED FOR THE 5TH TIME ON THIS VEHICLE. EVERY DOOR HAS BEEN AFFECTED AT LEAST ONCE WITH TODAY BEING THE RIGHT REAR DOOR HAVING TO BE REPLACED FOR A SECOND TIME. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ NUMEROUS TIMES ONLINE , THIS SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING PROBLEM FOR THE GM SUV PRODUCTS STARTING WITH THE 2007 MODEL YEARS. GM HAS YET TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WITH A RECALL , HOWEVER I FEEL AS WELL AS MANY OTHER OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES THAT THIS COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ISSUE IF THE VEHICLE IS HIT FROM THE SIDE OR A WATER RELATED ACCIDENT OCCURRED WITH THE VEHICLE BEING SUBMERGED AND NOT BEING ABLE TO GET OUT. 1 OR 2 INSTANCES IN A 4.5 YEAR PERIOD I COULD UNDERSTAND BUT 5 IN A 4.5 YEAR PERIOD INVOLVING EVERY DOOR IS NOT A COINCIDENCE. THE REPLACEMENT COST IS WELL IN EXCESS OF $200 AND AS SUCH I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY GM WOULD BE RELUCTANT TO ACT. DOES IT HAVE TO TAKE A DEATH OR 2 FOR GM TO REALIZE THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. IF YOU BUILD A VEHICLE SUCH AS THIS AND CHARGE IN EXCESS OF $50,000 , THEN I AS THE PURCHASER HAVE EVERY REASON TO EXPECT THAT THESE TYPES OF ISSUES WOULD BE RESOLVED BY USING QUALITY PARTS AND NOT JUNK. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AND YOU WILL FIND A WHOLE LOT OF CUSTOMERS OF THESE PRODUCTS WHO ARE HIGHLY UPSET AND WANT SOMETHING DONE TO RESOLVE THIS SERIOUS ISSUE. THANK YOU. *TR

WE NOTICED THE SPEEDOMETER AND THE BATTERY WAS LOSING CHARGE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY MULTIPLE TIMES AND HAD ALTERNATOR AND STARTER CHECKED BUT COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THEM. DID NOT TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A CHEVROLET DEALER CAUSE COULDN'T AFFORD IT THE COMPUTER ANALYZING COST. LOOKED UP ON COMPUTER AND IN 2009 THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE "CLUSTER" OF THE 2003 TAHOE AND WE WERE NEVER NOTIFIED. CHEVROLET NOW SAYS THE RECALL HAS EXPIRED. WE DID NOT CHANGE ADDRESSES AT ALL DURING THIS TIME PERIOD. (I ALSO HAVE A FRIEND WITH A 2003 TAHOE AND SHE DID NOT RECEIVE A NOTICE OF RECALL EITHER AND HAS THE SAME PROBLEMS). WHAT DO I DO ABOUT GETTING THIS PROBLEM FIXED WITHOUT IT COSTING ME A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY. IF THEY KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH ONE OF THEIR VEHICLES THEY SHOULD CORRECT THE PROBLEM ESPECIALLY IF SOMEONE HAS A VEHICLE WITH A PROBLEM AND NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE. *TR
