POWER TRAIN
We have a chevy with the 6.2 V8 engine. First we were at a stop light on the highway and the car shifted into Neutral and would not come out for two light cycles. My wife and children were stuck at the light with car's swerving around them at 65+. Finally it shifted into Drive. We called the Chevy dealership and they said it would be a month before they could look at the car and there were no check engine warnings. Two days later my wife and family were driving down the highway and suddenly it started making a flapping sound from the engine bay and was losing power. She pulled over and turned off the vehicle to see if that changed anything. The car would not restart and the check engine light was on (solid not flashing) it would just try to turn over with no success. We had it flat bed towed to the chevy dealership where they told us the engine was blown and that it had thrown a rod. We have 3900 miles on the vehicle and I would say this is a significant safety issue given that it can disable the vehicle on a busy highway.

WHEELS
This Tahoe comes with a full size spare. This model includes Brembo front brakes. The included spare cannot be installed/mounted to the front axle as the wheel is undersized and will not fit over the brake calipers. None of my ordering information nor MSRP label or model information on Chevrolet.com points out the included spare tire/wheel cannot be used in all positions of the SUV. Finding this out at 5am in the dark and drizzle of a cold Michigan morning on the side of US23 southbound is not the least bit safe.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Less than four weeks after having purchased a new 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe LT the backup and 360-degree surround vision camera system completely failed. The cameras would intermittently flicker or would lose connection all together preventing the driver from being able to reverse having the benefit of the camera vision. The rearview camera screen turns black with a red triangle containing an exclamation point alongside a "no camera" circle symbol. The Chevrolet dealer has inspected the vehicle and has confirmed the camera computer is defective and cannot be fixed - a replacement module with recalibration of the cameras is necessary. The vehicle cannot be driven safely, and thus has been with the dealer now for 18 days, with no time table from either the dealer or from General Motors as to replacement of the failed component. The vehicle had been driven less than 700 miles before this failure occurred.
