I BOUGHT A 2001 CHEVROLEX TAHOE USED IN MARCH OF 2004. SINCE THEN THE FRONT SEAT BELTS HAVE NOT WORKED PROPERLY. IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER 6 TIMES FOR 3 REPLACEMENTS. STILL NOT FIXED.

PASSANGER BELT LOCKS UP ON PASSANGER AND WILL NOT UNLUCK EVEN WHEN PASSANGER LEANS BACK. PERSON GETS TRAPPED AGAINST SEAT AND REALESING BELT FROM BUCKLE ONLY WAY FOR PERSON TO MOVE.*AK

STEERING:GEAR BOX:SHAFT SECTOR
INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT. WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE STEERING WHEEL HAS PLAY IN IT AND WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS THE WHEELS CLUNK. I TOOK MY TAHOE IN TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT IN SEPT. THE INTERMEDIATE SHAFT WAS ORDERED THEN. I STILL DO NOT HAVE IT FIXED. THEY ARE ON BACK ORDER. WITH 178,00 NEEDED IN THE US. I HAVE TAKEN THE TAHOE BACK IN TO HAVE IT GREASED TO MAKE IT STOP CLUNKING AGAIN. IT WORKS BUT ONLY FOR A SHORT TIME. I AM A MOTHER OF ONE AND HAVE ANOTHER ON THE WAY. THIS IS MY ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORATION AND I AM NOT COMFORTABLE WITH IT.*AK

STEERING:LINKAGES
A DULL THUMPING NOISE WAS HEARD STARTING A COUPLE MONTHS AGO. IT OCCURRED ANY TIME THE STEERING WHEEL WAS TURNED, EVEN THE SLIGHTEST. VERY ANNOYING! AS IT GOT WORSE I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT NEEDED A "SUPPLEMENTAL STEERING SHAFT" (PART #88963611/SHAFT). THAT PART IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPT THAT IT MAY TAKE FOUR WEEKS TO GET IT.*AK

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
AT SLOW SPEEDS WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED, JUST BEFORE THE VEHICLE IS ABOUT TO STOP,THE BRAKE RELEASES AND THE VEHICLE ROLLS 2-3FEET. BEFORE IT STOPS. IT HAS BEEN A GREAT EXPENSE TO MYSELF REPLACING BRAKE PARTS THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.*AK I RECENTLY FOUND A SERVICE BULLETIN THAT DESCRIBES THIS PROBLEM. I THOUGHT IT SHOULD BE REPAIRED AT GMC EXPENSE FOR A POOR DESIGN BUT THEY DO NOT AGREE. THE VEHICLE IS A 1997 CHEVROLET TAHOE
