BRAKING SYSTEMS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKE PEDAL. ALL BRAKE PADS ARE GOOD; BRAKE CALIPERS ARE NEW; BRAKE FLUID IS AT MAX. I REPLACED EVERYTHING I FOUND ONLINE, BUT THE ISSUE IS THERE ON THE VEHICLE. DOME LIGHT ISSUE: THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHTS ON THE VEHICLE FLASHES CONSTANTLY WHILE DRIVING.

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
AT SLOW RATE OF SPEED, PULLING INTO PARKING SPOT OR IN DRIVE-THRU LINES, THE BRAKE PEDAL TAKES EFFORT TO PUSH, TICKING, CLICKING AND GRINDING SOUND AND THE BRAKE PEDAL BEGINS TO VIBRATE AND VERY HARD TO PUSH DOWN TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I SEE THIS HAS BEEN RECALLED ON OTHER VEHICLES BUT NOT MY PARTICULAR TAHOE LTZ VIN# THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE SINCE SEPTEMBER 2019 AFTER THE CAR WAS PURCHASED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE ELECTRICAL SOFTWARE ISN'T FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE RADIO, ONSTAR, THE DOOR/SEAT BELT CHIMES DON'T WORK. NONE OF THE ELECTRICAL WORKS IN THE VEHICLE. I WAS DRIVING AND WHEN I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE AND TURNING, THE DOME LIGHTS START TO FLICKER MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OTHER CARS AT NIGHT. THE BACK DOORS DON'T ALWAYS LOCK WHEN LOCKING THEM.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
NOT LONG AFTER I PURCHASED MY TAHOE NEW I NOTICED MOISTURE IN THE HEADLIGHTS, MORE SO ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I HAD THE VEHICLE BROUGHT IN FOR AN AC RECALL AND THE DEALER DIDN'T NOTICE OR FIX THE PROBLEM. AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED I STARTED GETTING ACCUMULATING WATER IN THE LIGHT ASSEMBLY WHICH WOULD CORRODE THE BLINKER HOLDER MAKING IT INOPERABLE. SO I EITHER HAVE TO CHANGE THE BLINKER HOLDER OR REPLACE THE ENTIRE LIGHT ASSEMBLY. I FEEL LIKE THE DEALER SHOULD HAVE NOTICED THE ISSUE WHEN IT WAS IN THE SHOP FOR THE AC RECALL.

AN ISSUE THAT I HAVE HAD SINCE THE USED VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN 2016 SUPERIOR INTERIOR LED LIGHTING, HOWEVER:: ACTIVATE LEFT TURN SIGNAL OR STEP ON THE BRAKES, THESE INTERIOR BRIGHT LED CABIN LIGHTS FLASH BRIGHTLY AND INTERMITTENTLY. STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION, IT'S EMBARRASSING, INTERIOR LED LIGHTING CONTINUES TO FLASH AS IF THERE WAS A STROBE WITHIN THE INTERIOR CABIN, WHEN MY FOOT ON BRAKE AND OR LEFT TURN SIGNAL. HAZARD / 4-WAY ACTIVATE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ALSO.

VISIBLE AND OBVIOUS TO OTHER MOTORISTS DURING HOURS OF DARKNESS WHEN STOPPED ASIDE, FRONT AND/OR REAR OF THE VEHICLE. DEALERSHIP ' $180.00 TO FIX, ALSO THAT A SERVICE BULLETIN EXISTS, ADVISED TO WAIT FOR RE-CALL - BACK FOR RE-CALL APPROXIMATELY 1 YEAR LATER, SERVICE REP STATED, STILL NO RE-CALL. I WAS ADVISED AT THAT TIME, BY THE "SAME" SERVICE REP IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT, AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP, THAT THEY, (CHEVROLET) ARE CURRENTLY UN-AWARE OF ANY SUCH ISSUE WITH THE INTERIOR LIGHTING. I HAVE BEEN A POLICE OFFICER FOR NEARLY 40 YEARS ASSIGNED TO TRAFFIC DIVISION.

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.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
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.

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.

SERVICE BRAKES, LANE DEPARTURE: WARNING, BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS
WHEN DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS (RESTAURANT DRIVE-THRU, STOP AND GO TRAFFIC) I OFTEN FIND MYSELF HAVING DIFFICULTY PUSHING THE BRAKE PEDAL, AS IT IS EXTREMELY HARD TO PUSH DOWN THE PEDAL AND THE CAR WILL NOT COME TO A STOP FOR 2-3 FEET. I FEEL A STRONG VIBRATION DURING THIS AND A LOW PITCHED CRUNCHING SOUND, AND CANNOT PUSH THE BRAKE DOWN. I AM AFRAID I WILL HAVE A COLLISION. I DID THE 2019 RECALL IN WHICH THE DEALER RECALIBRATED SOMETHING WITH THE BRAKES. BUT IT I CONTINUING TO HAVE PROBLEMS, I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO TEST THE VACUUM PUMP, BUT THEY SAID THE "TESTING WAS NORMAL" AND THEY WERE NOT WILLING TO DRIVE IT LONG ENOUGH TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM I WAS HAVING, SAYING THAT IT WAS WORN ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS THAT WERE CAUSING THE ISSUE. I KNOW WHAT THE CAR FEELS LIKE WHEN THE ROTORS/PADS NEED CHANGING, AND I DO HAVE SLIGHT VIBRATION WHEN BRAKING AT HIGH SPEEDS, BUT NEVER WHERE I HAVE INCREASED BRAKE EFFORT. ONLY AT SLOW SPEEDS AND IF I AM PRESSING THE BRAKE MULTIPLE TIMES.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
LARGE FUEL LEAK COMING FROM LINE THAT RUBS BODY ABOVE GAS TANK. GAS WAS POURING OUT CAUSING A VERY HAZARDOUS CONDITION. WHEN NOTICED VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT. GM KNOWS THAT THERE HAVE BEEN ISSUES AS THERE IS A TSB # 17-NA-304 DATED SEPTEMBER OF 2017. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALS DOZENS OF LIKE REPORTS WITH ONE CAUSING A COMPLETE LOSS OF VEHICLE DUE TO FIRE. THIS IS OF MAJOR CONCERN AS LOSS OF LIFE FROM THIS ENGINEERING FAILURE IS HIGH. CHILDREN COULD BE RESTRAINED IN CAR SEATS IN REAR OF VEHICLE JUST ABOVE FUEL FOR FIRE.
