SUSPENSION
I PURCHASED MY 2015 TAHOE LTZ IN AUG. 2018 WITH 59,582 MIKES ON IT. MY MILEAGE IS NOW AT 73,504 & HAS RECENTLY STARTED BOUNCING SO BAD WHEN I AM DRIVING ON A RELATIVELY SMOOTH HIGHWAY. DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON WITH IT BUT I SUSPECT IT'S A SUSPENSION PROBLEM. IT SEEMS TO GET WORSE EVERY TIME I DRIVE SINCE I FIRST NOTICED IT IN MAY, 2019. I PAID A LOT FOR THIS CAR & EXPECT IT TO LAST LONGER THAN 4 OR 5 YEARS. I'VE JUST READ THAT THIS CHEVROLET VEHICLE HAS HAD 13 RECALLS WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY NOT ACCEPTABLE. I WOULD LIKE FOR GM TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES & REPAIR THE PROBLEM WITH THE SUSPENSION SINCE IT COULD BE HAZARDOUS.

AIR BAGS
TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE RECALL IN MAY OF 2016. I HAVE MADE NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT LOCAL CHEVY DEALERS AND TO DATE NO RECOURSE. I HAVE HAD A "SERVICE AIR BAG" LIGHT ON FOR CLOSE TO TWO YEARS BUT THE REPAIR SHOP DOES NOT WANT TO PROVIDE SERVICE ON THIS BECAUSE OF THE RECALL. I CAN, AT TIMES, DRIVE UPTO 1000 MILES A WEEK, IT WOULD BE NICE IF THIS COULD BE TAKEN CARE OF.

SERVICE BRAKES
DRIVING MY CAR TODAY AND HAD A HUGE ISSUE WITH MY BRAKES. WHEN BACKING OUT OF PARKING SPACE AND NOTICED SOMEONE WALKING BEHIND ME AND HIT THE BRAKES, IT WAS LIKE THEY WERE STUCK. AFTER A COUPLE OF SECONDS THEY FINALLY GAVE AND STOPPED, SO I JUST THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS A FLUKE. THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS 2 HOURS AWAY FROM HOME. THEN ON DRIVE BACK HOME, I GOT STUCK IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC BECAUSE OF AN ACCIDENT ON THE INTERSTATE. TRAFFIC CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, SO I HIT MY BRAKES AND SAME THING, THEY WERE STUCK (WOULD NOT MOVE). AFTER ABOUT 3 SECONDS OF PUSHING THEM AS HARD AS I COULD, THEY FINALLY GAVE AND JUST BARELY MISSED HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I FINALLY SEARCHED THE INTERNET TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE HAD EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM. I WAS VERY SHOCKED TO SEE THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM! THIS IS A HUGE SECURITY RISK! I WAS ALMOST IN 2 SEPARATE ACCIDENTS TODAY BECAUSE OF A KNOWN PROBLEM! SHOULDN'T SOMEONE BE NOTIFYING TAHOE OWNERS OF THIS ISSUE TO KEEP THE PUBLIC SAFE?

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
HEAVY MOISTURE IS ACCUMULATING IN THE FRONT LEFT HEADLIGHT WITH NO CRACKS IN THE LIGHT. IT IS CAUSING THE LEFT FRONT TURN SIGNAL TO MALFUNCTION WITH A WARNING ON CONTROL PANEL. THIS IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVING WHEN MAKING LEFT TURNS WITH NO FRONT TURN SIGNAL AND WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT EVENTUALLY TO SOME OWNERS WHO CANNOT AFFORD TO GET IT FIXED. CHEVY WILL NOT TAKE OWNERSHIP OF FAULTY DESIGN, PART, OR SYSTEM AND WANTS OWNER OF CAR TO ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR REPAIR COSTS WHICH ARE VERY HIGH ON THESE FAULTY PARTS. THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WE PURCHASED DOES NOT WANT TO PAY FOR REPAIR EITHER WHY SHOULD THE OWNER WHO HAS NO CONTROL OVER THE INSTALLATION OF DEFECTIVE SYSTEM HAVE TO PAY FOR IT ? PLEASE HELP SAVE LIVES FROM POTENTIAL CRASHES.

I PULLED INTO A SPOT TOWARDS THE END OF THE PARKING LOT AND THE BRAKES CONTINUED TO NOT WORK EVEN WHEN PRESSING WITH 2 FEET. PER CHEVY DEALARSHIP I HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP FIXED.

FAILURE OF A/C SYSTEM WITH LESS THAN 60,000 MI. I DIDN'T USE THE WARRANTY BECAUSE IT HAPPENED DURING WINTER. I THOUGHT IT JUST NEEDED A RECHARGE BUT IT STILL DOESN'T WORK. SEEMS LIKE A COMPRESSOR.
