ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
ONE EVENING I DROVE TO THE STORE AND PLACED MY TRUCK ON PARK FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES WITHOUT SHUTTING THE VEHICLE OFF. ONCE I'M BACK IN AND GOING IN REVERSE I NOTICED THAT THE ASSISTED POWER STEERING WASN'T WORKING. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY TERMINALS AND WAITED BUT THE EPS NEVER CAME BACK ON. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOED TO MY NEARBY CHEVROLET DEALER WHOM LATER CONCLUDED THAT THE STEERING GEAR AND SOME COMPUTER MODULE NEEDED REPLACED. THEY BILLED ME FOR APPROXIMATELY $2900. NOW, HERE I AM EXACTLY ONE YEAR LATER WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! EXPIRED WARRANTY AND A HUGE BILL OF REPAIR. I HAVE THE DEALER RECEIPTS ON FILE.

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY EMGINE HAD JUST A LITTLE OVER 100000 MILES ON IT AND I ALMOST GOT KILLED ON THE INTERSTATE. FIRST I SAW SMOKE COMING FROM BELOW AND IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS COMING FROM THE TRUCK NEXT TO MINE. THEN I FELT A STOPPING FEELING IN MY TAHOE. I MOVED QUICKLY TO THE SERVICE LANE AND GOT IT IMMEDIATELY TO MY MECHANIC. I HAVE RECORDS OF REGULAR SERVICES TO MY VEHICLE. I HAD TO REPLACE THE MOTOR $7239.49. I HAD MY ATTORNEY LOOK INTO IT AND MY YEAR PLUS A FEW OTHER YEARS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THE DEALER NEVER RECALLED IT.

AFTER 800 AT DEALERSHIP THEY CANCELLED REMAINING WARRANTY WITH AGREEMENT FOR ME TO AFFORD PAYMENT TO FIX EXCEPT IT KEPT HAPPENING. WHILE DRIVING 2009 TAHOE DRIVING APPROACHED CORNER AND BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED. WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A STOP. SHUT OFF VEHICLE AND RESTARTED VEHICLE AND IT STARTED TO WORK FINE. IT WILL NOT FIX WHILE DRIVING AND IT IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD. VEHICLE ACCELERATION HAS DELAY OR LACK OF POWER WHEN ACCELERATING. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO BRAKE, VEHICLE CONTINUES TO INCREASE MOMENTUM FOR BRIEF MOMENTS. I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE BACK FOR 2 MONTHS AND PROBLEM WITH BRAKE FAILURE AND ACCELERATION HESITATION/IN FLUCTUATIONS HAS HAPPENED AND CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. BY PHONE AGREEMENT TALKING WITH DEALERSHIP WHERE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, WAS GOING TO RETURN VEHICLE TODAY BUT THE OWNER BILL NETTLETON REFUSED. I NEED THIS VEHICLE SAFE SO I CAN DRIVE IT OR SELL IT.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE 2 LARGE CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD OF MY 2009 CHEVY TAHOE LTZ. I HAVE ALWAYS KEPT A SUNSHIELD IN THE WINDOW TO REDUCE INTERIOR HEAT AND DAMAGE TO DASH. BUT, THIS DIDN'T WORK. THE DAMAGE HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN FRONT OF MY HOME. I BELIEVE THAT THE PROBLEM COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THE MANUFACTURER HAD USED A THICKER MATERIAL (PLASTIC) FOR THE DASH. I LOVE THE VEHICLE. BUT, HATE TO LOOK AT THE CRACKS EVERY TIME I GET IN. I INQUIRED INTO REPLACEMENT OF THE DASH AND WAS GIVEN A ROUGH ESTIMATE OF $1500-1800.

AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE DASH ON THE VEHICLE HAS CRACKED AT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG COVER. ALSO CRACKED ABOVE THE SPEEDOMETER. CONCERN IS THERE MAY BE HUMIDITY INGRESS TO THE AIRBAG, THE ELECTRONICS OR SUB ASSEMBLIES INCREASING THE RISK FOR AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT ANOMALY. ANOTHER CONCERN IS PLASTIC OR METAL FROM THE DASH COULD ALSO IMPACT THE AIRBAG (DEFLATION) OR PRESENT INJURY TO THE OCCUPANTS (FLYING PARTS). A LESSER CONCERN IS THE SENSORS FOR THE AUTOMATED AC/HEATING SYSTEMS IN THE CAR. BELIEVING THEY ARE CALIBRATED WITH SEALED INTACT COMPONENTS. THE LARGER SPLIT AT THE SPEEDOMETER HAS ONLY RECENTLY HAPPENED WHICH MAKES THIS A CONCERN THAT THERE ARE LARGER MORE UNDERPINNING ISSUES NOT FULLY REALIZED.
