ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
I HAVE A 2004 CHEVY TAHOE. MY INSTRUMENT PANEL IS MESSED UP. MY SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT WORK, IT FLUTTERS OR PEGS OUT ALL THE WAY. NOW MY OIL GAUGE IS BOTTOM OUT. IN RESEARCHING THE INTERNET, I SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THAT CHEVY WILL ONLY FIX IT IF YOU HAVE LESS THAN 70,000 MILES. I HAVE OVER 100,000 MILES ON MY CAR AND I CONSIDER IT A SAFETY HAZARD. 98% OF THE TIME I DO NOT KNOW HOW FAST I AM REALLY GOING. I HEARD THAT A RECALL WILL NOT BE ISSUED BECAUSE IT IS NOT A "SAFETY HAZARD". WELL I DISAGREE, BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE NOT ALWAYS AWARE OF THEIR FUEL LEVEL, HOW FAST/SLOW THEY ARE REALLY DRIVING. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
DRIVING HOME FROM CHURCH 20 MILE TRIP, ABOUT MIDWAY PRESSED ON BRAKES AND PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH TOTAL LOSS OF BRAKING. MANAGED TO MAKE IT THROUGH TWO RED LIGHTS WITH HORN AND HAZARD LIGHTS BEFORE COMING TO A STOP WITH USE OF PARKING BRAKE. IMMEDIATELY I POPPED THE HOOD TO CHECK FOR BRAKE FLUID AND RESERVOIR WAS STILL HALF FULL. HAD THE WIFE CYCLE THE BRAKES SO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE MASTER CYLINDER OR BOOSTER. ALL LOOKED GOOD, WALKING AROUND THE CAR I FOUND A LARGE PUDDLE OF BRAKE FLUID INSIDE DRIVERS SIDE REAR WHEEL. LIMPED CAR HOME, AND NOTICED THE REAR BRAKE LINE WHICH SITS ABOVE THE FRAME RAIL WAS COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH. I CAN NOT REPLACE THIS LINE MYSELF SO I WILL BE RETURNING VEHICLE FOR SERVICE TO CHEVROLET DEALER. *TR

STRUCTURE
I OWE A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. I NOTICED IN JULY OF THIS YEAR THAT THERE IS A 2-3 INCH CRACK ON THE TOP LEFT CORNER OF THE DASH ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE--RIGHT ON TOP OF WHERE THE AIR BAG IS! I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID "SINCE IT'S NOT A SAFETY ISSUE" GENERAL MOTORS SAID THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE DASH! HOW DO THEY FREAKING KNOW IT'S NOT A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN IT'S ON TOP OF THE AIR BAG??? AND NOW THERE'S ANOTHER CRACK! THIS ONE IS JUST TO THE LEFT OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE INSTRUMENT PANEL ON TOP OF THE DASH! THIS CRACK IS 6-7 INCHES LONG. I TAKE SUPER GOOD CARE OF MY VEHICLES, SUN SHADES, REGULAR CONDITIONING, ETC. AND SINCE THE VEHICLE IS 4 YEARS OLD, THERE IS NO REASON (OTHER THAN CRAPPY WORKMANSHIP AND CRAPPY MATERIALS AND CRAPPY ENGINEERING) TO HAVE NOT ONE BUT TWO CRACKS ON A $50,000 VEHICLE! SO I'M GUESSING WHEN MY AIR BAG FAILS ON MY PASSENGER SIDE AND WHEN MY DAUGHTER GETS HURT IN A WRECK BECAUSE THE AIRBAG DOESN'T PROPERLY DEPLOY, THEN IT WILL BE A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE I WILL BE ALL OVER GENERAL MOTORS. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. CHECK THE INTERNET. HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME CRACKS HAPPENING. GM IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND IS CHOOSING TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AND HELP US GET THIS PROBLEM RESOLVED. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
2002 CHEVY TAHOE WITH 105, 000 MILES. CHANGED SPARK PLUGS AND FOUND A SEVERED EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLT ON THE ENGINE. THE BOLT IS FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE END OF MANIFOLD. THE BOLT IS WORN AND RUSTY ON 90% OF IT AND THE OTHER 10% IS SHINY (LIKE A NEW BREAK). CALLED DUBLIN, CA CHEVY AND WENT IN AFTER THEY SAID THEY HAVE HAD MANY COMPLAINTS. THE OFFERED TO FIX IT FOR 10% OFF THE $1000 BILL. I TOLD THEM THAT IT WAS THEIR DEFECT AND THEY SHOULD PAY. I CALLED GMAC AND THEY TOLD ME TO GOTO ANOTHER CHEVY DEALER IN SAN LEANDRO, CA FOR A DIAGNOSIS SINCE THE 1ST DEALERSHIP NEVER LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD. THAT DEALER LOOKED AT THE TRUCK AND TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO REMOVE THE MANIFOLD AND IT WOULD COST APPROXIMATELY, $500, BUT IT COULD RUN MORE IF THERE WERE MORE BOLTS THAT BREAK OFF DURING THE REPAIR. I HAVE THREE YOUNG CHILDREN AND I HAVE TAKEN IMMACULATE CARE OF THIS TRUCK. I DON'T THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR A REPAIR WHEN IT IS OBVIOUS BY LOOKING AT THE BOLT THAT THE BOLT WAS OVER TORQUED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS BUILT. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH, I HAVE FOUND THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS OF THIS EXACT PROBLEM. THEY NEED TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND FIX THEM. IF I LET THIS CONTINUE WITHOUT FIXING THE PROBLEM, I WILL HAVE A HUGE PROBLEM ON MY HANDS AND IT WILL BE A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
THE POWER DOOR LOCKS WORK INTERMITTENTLY IN MY 2008 CHEVY TAHOE. I HAVE HAD THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LOOKED AT IN THE PAST AT MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALER, AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND A PROBLEM. RECENTLY MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK USING THE KEY FOB. THE ALARM IS SET AND ALL OTHER DOORS LOCK, EXCEPT THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. I DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING, AS I USUALLY TRUST THAT THE DOOR IS LOCKED WHEN I PUSH THE BUTTON. PLUS, I CAN HEAR THE OTHER DOORS LOCK AND I HAVE NEVER HAD TO VISUALLY OR PHYSICALLY CHECK THAT ALL DOORS ARE LOCKED. LAST YEAR I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM WHEN I WOULD PUT THE CAR IN PARK WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING. THE DOORS WOULD UNLOCK AND THEN LOCK AGAIN. AT ONE POINT I HAD ACTUALLY GOTTEN OUT OF MY CAR, SHUT MY DOOR, THEN THE DOORS LOCKED, AND I WAS UNABLE TO OPEN THE REAR DRIVERS DOOR TO ACCESS MY CHILDREN. THANK GOODNESS THE DRIVERS DOOR DID NOT LOCK. I WAS ABLE TO OPEN THE DRIVERS DOOR AND MANUALLY UNLOCK THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. *TR

STRUCTURE, TIRES:TEMPORARY/EMERGENCY SPARE TIRE
MY 2000 CHEVROLET TAHOE SPARE TIRE CABLE(S) BROKE ON SUNDAY, SEPT 12. I WAS TRAVELING LESS THAN 40MPH COMING ONTO AN EXIT, LOOKED IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SUDDENLY SAW A TIRE THAT WAS NOT THERE SECONDS AGO. I PULLED TO THE SIDE, BACKED UP AND REALIZE MY TIRE WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY BELONGED TO ME. THANK GOD, THE PERSON DRIVING THE CAR BEHIND ME WAS ABLE TO MISS HITTING IT. MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, I CALLED CHEVROLET CUSTOMER SERVICE. I ASKED IF THERE WERE SIMILAR REPORTS OF SPARE TIRES COMING OFF FROM UNDERNEATH VEHICLES? I WAS TOLD BY JOVI NO. 'THERE WERE NO REPORTS OF SPARE TIRES COMING OFF (I FIND THAT DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE WHEN I SEE THE MANY STORIES ONLINE). MY VEHICLE IS 10 YEARS OLD, (I'VE OWNED FOR 8) IT IS IN GREAT CONDITION, BODY LOOKS GOOD AND RUNS WELL, AT THAT TIME IT HAD 208K MILES. JOVI ADVISED THAT I TAKE TO DEALERSHIP, HAVE THEM INSPECT AND BASED ON THEIR FINDINGS, CHEVROLET WILL HAVE TO DECIDE IF THEY WILL ASSIST W/ HAVING IT REPAIRED. SHE GAVE ME A "HEADS UP" THAT IT MAY BE DUE TO THE AGE, AND MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE AND IF SO, CHEVROLET WILL NEED TO MAKE DECISION. ROYAL CHEVROLET SERVICE PERSONNEL INFORMED ME "THE CABLES BROKE". THEY WERE UNABLE TO TELL ME THE REASON WHY. JOVI CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP TO KNOW THEIR FINDINGS SHE INFORMED ME ON THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, SHE WAS TOLD THE TIRE COMING OFF "COULD" BE DUE TO AGE, MILEAGE AND WEAR AND TEAR, HOWEVER THE VEHICLE WAS IN GOOD CONDITION AND WELL MAINTAINED PER THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. JOVI SAID CHEVROLET WILL BE UNABLE TO ASSIST W/ HAVING IT REPAIRED (COST APPRX $238 ' ON MONDAY, I VOLUNTEERED TO PAY UP TO 1.5 HOURS OF LABOR FEES). I WAS NOT HAPPY W/ THEIR DECISION AND REQUESTED SHE RECEIVE A "DEFINITE ANSWER". HER SAYING 'COULD BE' WAS NOT A DEFINITIVE OF THE PROBLEM THEREFORE, IN MY OPINION, I FELT CHEVROLET SHOULD ASSIST IN THE REPAIR COST. JOVI, CALLED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AGAIN AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW? THIS TIME, THEY CAN SAY FOR CERTAIN IT WAS DUE TO AGE, MILEAGE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2007 TAHOE LTZ. MY TAHOE CAUGHT ON FIRE AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY ON 9/10/10. I SAW SMOKE IN THE BACK OF MY SUV AS I WAS DRIVING. I PULLED OVER AND LOOKED IN THE BACK OF THE SUV. FLAMES WERE COMING FROM THE DRIVERS SIDE BACK END OF THE AUTO. IT TOOK THE FIREMEN 20 MINUTES TO PUT THE FIRE OUT. MY INSURANCE COMPANY IS SAYING IT MUST BE MECHANICAL, WHICH THEY START TO TELL ME THAT TYPE OF FIRE IS NOT COVERED AND THEY ARE NOT COVERING DAMAGES, WHICH THE SUV IS TOTALED. BUT THE FIRE WAS ONLY IN THE REAR OF THE SUV. I'M SURE THIS WILL BE A BATTLE! OTHER THINGS ARE MY WINDSHIELD ALSO COMES ON RANDOM TIMES WITH THE WATER SPRAYING WHENEVER IT WANTS. DOOR HANDLES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HANDLE WAS SHARP AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. LETTERING ON BUTTONS DOESN'T SEEM TO LAST. LOT'S OF SEAT BELT PROBLEMS. *TR
