SERVICE BRAKES
ON JANUARY 29, 2021, MY 2016 TAHOE LT, WITH 69,676 MILES, EXPERIENCED A "BRAKE VACUUM ASSIST PUMP FAILURE". THE VEHICLE WAS ON A FLAT SURFACE (DRIVEWAY), IN REVERSE, MOVING VERY SLOWLY BACKWARD, WHEN I ENGAGED THE FOOT BRAKE PEDAL IT WAS HARD AND WOULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY, THE VEHICLE EVENTUALLY STOPPED AFTER AN ABNORMAL DISTANCE (WITHOUT WARNING THE BRAKES FAILED TO ENGAGE). ONCE I STOPPED, I TURNED OFF THE IGNITION, WAITED A FEW MINUTES, THEN STARTED THE IGNITION AND NO WARNING SENSORS/ LIGHTS WERE DISPLAYED. I THEN PLACED THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE TO CHECK THE BRAKES. I MOVED FORWARD SLOWLY, WHEN I PUSHED THE FOOT BRAKE PEDAL IT WAS ONCE AGAIN HARD CAUSING ME TO PUMP THE BRAKES WHICH CAUSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO BECOME FLUTTERING AND THE PEDAL WAS PUSHED TO THE FLOOR, THE VEHICLE EVENTUALLY STOPPED AFTER AN ABNORMAL DISTANCE (WITHOUT WARNING THE BRAKES FAILED TO ENGAGE). BECAUSE OF THE SEVERE SAFETY RISK, I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO REPLACE THE 'BRAKE VACUUM ASSIST PUMP' ON FEBRUARY 2, 2022, AT MY COST.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHEN TRYING TO BRAKE AT LOW SPEEDS THE BRAKES LOCK UP AND FEEL LIKE YOU OR PUSHING THROUGH CONCRETE. IT IS TERRIFYING WHEN YOU ARE COMING DOWN A HILL, PULLING A TRAILER, WITH YOUR KIDS IN THE CAR. THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY! I HAVE HAD THE BRAKES PADS AND ROTORS REPLACED WITH NO CHANGES. PRETTY FRUSTRATING WHEN YOU SPEND $50,000 ON A VEHICLE AND NO ONE CAN TELL YOU WHAT THE PROBLEM IS.

I WAS NOTIFIED JULY 2016 BY US MAIL THAT MY VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN GM RECALL 49152 FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATOR. I HAVE NEVER RECV'D ANY FURTHER COMMUNICATION FROM GM. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA 4/10/19 (ODI #11195391). I MAILED REQUESTED DOCS TO NHTSA 5/15/19. I HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM ANYONE AND THE ISSUE WITH THE TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATOR HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED AFTER 4 YEARS OF WAITING FOR A REMEDY.

VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH CHEVY MYLINK INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM IN WHICH CONTROLS CAN BE ACCESS VIA TOUCHSCREEN AND BUTTONS ON THE CENTER CONSOLE. SYSTEM RAMDOMLY AND ERRATICALLY CHANGES SETTINGS SUCH AS RADIO STATIONS, BLUETOOTH SETTINGS, LANGUAGE SETTINGS, MEDIA SETTINGS, NAVIGATION AND SCREEN WOULD FREEZE WHICH MAKES SYSTEM UNRESPONSIVE TO CONTROL BUTTONS WHEN PRESSED. THIS ISSUE WAS BROUGHT TO LOCAL DEALER'S ATTENTION AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE COMPUTER BOARD NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND SINCE THE WARRANTY IS OUT, THEN OWNER WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE HEFTY $1000 PLUS PARTS AND LABOR COST. THIS ISSUE HAS STATED AFFECTING VEHICLE SEVERAL MONTHS BEFORE WARRANTY HAVE EXPIRED BUT ISSUE HAS PROGRESSIVELY WORSEN SINCE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY DURING OPERATION OF VEHICLE BECAUSE IT CAUSES A LOT OF DISRTRACTIONS AND OPERATOR CAN EASILY LOSE FOCUS AND CONTROL IN AN ATTEMP TO TROUBLESHOOT THE ISSUE. ALSO, THERE IS NO OPTION TO POWER OFF THE SYSTEM WHILE IN OPERATION OR WHEN THE IGNITION IS ON.

POWER TRAIN
MY 2017 TAHOE IS JERKING, NOT GOING INTO OVERDRIVE SMOOTHLY, NOT ACCELERATING EASILY. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS YEAR MODEL HAD SEVERAL VEHICLES THAT HAD TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED. I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR ONLY 6 MONTHS. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS AND ALSO CALLED GMC BUT WAS TOLD BY BOTH THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THIS ISSUE. WITH THE COST OF THESE VEHICLES THERE SHOULD BE NO ISSUES ON A FAIRLY NEW MODEL AND FROM THE PREVIOUS COMMENTS I HAVE READ HERE GM NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL ON TRANSMISSIONS BEFORE A SERIOUS INJURY OCCURS.

SAFETY PROBLEM- TRANSMISSION IS SHUDDERING. CAR STOPPED - PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC, CAR HESITATES TO MOVE AND FEELS LIKE ITS IN NEUTRAL WHILE PRESSING THE GAS THEN FINALLY VIOLENTLY JERKS INTO GEAR. CAR DRIVES AS IF TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING. RPM IS FLUCTUATING. CAR ALSO HAS A WEIRD VIBRATION - TRANSMISSION SHUDDER. THIS IS A LIFE THREATENING ISSUE

SUSPENSION
THE SHOCKS/STRUTS BEGAN LEAKING AND ARE FAULTY. THEY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE COST OF THE REPAIR WAS OVER $3,000 BECAUSE THEY ARE A SPECIAL TYPE. THE GARAGE THAT DID THE WORK SAID HE TALKED TO OTHER DEALERS/GARAGES AND THOSE ARE WELL KNOWN FOR GOING BAD ON THE 2015 TAHOE. A $70,000 VEHICLE SHOULD NOT NEED SHOCKS/STRUTS REPLACED WITHIN 5 YEARS. AND THIS VEHICLE HAS 15 RECALLS ALREADY. CAN'T THIS BE CLASSIFIED AS A LEMON OR SOMETHING? THIS IS RIDICULOUS. AND WASTE OF MY TIME AND MONEY TO GET ALL THIS STUFF FIXED. THANK YOU.
