SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE GOING AT SLOW SPEEDS, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES STIFF AND LOCKS UP RESULTING IN THE BRAKES NOT WORKING AT ALL. THIS HAS CAUSED ME TO ALMOST HIT MULTIPLE PEOPLE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, PARKING LOTS, AND DRIVE THROUGH RESTAURANT LINES AS WELL AS ALMOST CAUSING ME TO ROLL THROUGH RED LIGHTS INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS HAS HAPPENED RANDOMLY OVER THE PAST YEAR (2018) AND HAS RECENTLY BECAME MORE COMMON.

I WAS DRIVING WEST BOUND ON 176TH ST AND AS I APPROACHED THE LIGHT I COULD NOT BRAKE OR TURN MY CAR TO THE RIGHT IN WHICH I HAD A HEAD ON COLLISION WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. ON IN PACKED MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY! THE DRIVER OF THE OTHER VEHICLE EVEN TOLD THE OFFICER HE WAS TRYING TO TURN , HIS EYES WERE AS BIG AS A COWS CLEARLY HE WAS IN DISTRESS. LUCKILY NEITHER OF US WERE INJURED.

TAKATA RECALL HAS BEEN AN ONGOING, UNRESOLVABLE ISSUE SINCE IT BEGAN. THE DEALER HAS NO INSIGHT AS TO WHEN, IF EVER, IT WILL BE FIXED. THEY SAY TO KEEP WATCHING THE NHTSA/GM BOARDS FOR UPDATES. OTHER ISSUE IS THE DASHBOARD & ITS CRACKING. I HAD FILED WITH THE NHTSA IN 2017 WITH THE ORIGINAL CRACK THAT HAPPENED BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG (YOUR TRACKING NUMBER ASSIGNED BY NHTSA FOR THIS ISSUE IS 10939141), BUT AM ADDING THIS SITE NOW. ADDITIONALLY, THE DASH HAS CRACKED BEHIND THE DRIVER'S "POD", CONNECTIONS HAVE LET LOOSE FOR THE MIDDLE PORTION OF THE DASH ALLOWING IT TO FLAP OVER BUMPS & THE LATEST IS THE NEW METALLIC RATTLE THAT HAS BEGUN SOMEWHERE BEHIND THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/DASH AREA. I HAVEN'T HAD ANY CRACKING OFF OF SHARDS, BUT AS THE TRUCK WAS REGULARLY GARAGED, PARKED IN A PARKING GARAGE AT WORK, & NOW IN A CARPORT, IT'S FRUSTRATING TO HAVE THINGS OCCUR WITHOUT THE BLAZING SUN TO CONTRIBUTE. UNLIKE OTHERS, I HAVEN'T HAD MAJOR CUTS OR FLYING PIECES, JUST SMALL CUTS TO FINGERS WHEN I FORGETFULLY AM WIPING DOWN THE DASH. I'VE SPOKEN WITH THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES AS THINGS HAVE PROGRESSED ON THE DASH & INITIALLY THEY SAID IT WAS UNFORTUNATE & TO WATCH THE ORIGINAL ONE (PASSENGER AIRBAG AREA), BUT AS THERE ARE NOW MORE ISSUES WITH THE DASH, THEY SAY TO TAKE IT UP WITH GM DIRECTLY. I HAVEN'T STARTED THAT PROCESS YET, BUT AS THE AIRBAGS & THE DASH ARE A NEVER-ENDING ISSUE, I WILL MAKE AN ATTEMPT TO START.

THERE ARE TWO CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD: ONE IS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FROM FRONT TO BACK STARTS UNDER THE WINDSHIELD AND EXTENDS TO THE TOP OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL; THE OTHER ON THE PASSENGER SIDE STARTS UNDER THE WINDSHIELD AND EXTENDS TO THE AIR BAG COVER. I'M CONCERNED THAT THESE CRACKS MAY COMPROMISE EITHER OR BOTH AIR BAGS SHOULD THEY BE DEPLOYED IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
AT SLOW SPEEDS THE VEHICLE HAS SHUT OFF TWICE NOW, ONCE IN THE MIDDLE OF LOS ANGELES TRAFFIC ALMOST CAUSING US TO WRECK! WE HAVE TAKEN IT IN FOR THAT AND A POPPING IN THE STEARING WHEEL AND THEY TOLD US NOTHING WAS WRONG. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE SOMETHING DONE ABOUT IT!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. WHEN RUNNING THE DOOR LOCKS OPEN AND CLOSE RAPIDLY, THE SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE WARNING COMES ON, THE LOW BATTERY WARNING COMES ON THEN GOES OFF, THE AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHES ON AND OFF. WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE SERGES, AND STALLS COMPLETELY FOR A BRIEF MOMENT. THE BATTERY IS NEW, AND THE DEALER SAYS THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECK OUT OK. THE LAST OIL CHANGE ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO, THE DEALER SAID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM.

LOW MILEAGE VEHICLE, STORED IN A GARAGE AT WORK AND AT HOME. DASHBOARD CRACKED AT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AS PLASTIC PARTS FROM BROKEN DASHBOARD CAN BECOME DEADLY MISSILES DURING AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POTENTIALLY HARM OR CAUSE DEATH TO PASSENGER (MY CHILD). SPENT NEARLY $600 FOR A DASHBOARD ASSEMBLY THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER REQUIRED REPLACING.

MY AC CONDENSER IS CRACKED AND LEAKING FREON AND IS NOT BLOWING COOL AIR. I'VE READ MULTIPLE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM ON THIS MODEL TAHOE AND AM WONDERING WHY THERE ISN'T A RECALL WHEN SO MANY ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THE CONDENSER. NOW I'M HAVING TO FORK OUT $1200 TO FIX IT ON A NEWER MODEL TAHOE WITH LOW MILES AND IT'S REDICULOUS WHEN SO MANY PEOPLE ARE REPORTING THE SAME THING! PLEASE GIVE IT A RECALL!

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
DRIVING EAST ON I-20 AFTER SIERRA BLANCA CHECKPOINT STARTING THE INCLINE UPHILL. I WAS ON LEFT LANE, HAD CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 80 AS PER SPEED LIMIT. ON MY RIGHT A SEMI JUST A VEHICLE AWAY, AT MY REAR ANOTHER SEMI ALSO ON RIGHT LANE. FRONT TRUCK STARTED RIGHT EXIT TURN SIGNAL AND JUST WHEN HE STARTED TO EXIT AT CURVE, MY VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN TO 52 IN ABOUT 2 SECONDS AND SEMI BEHIND ME SWITCHED TO MY LANE TO AVOID SEMI EXITING INTERSTATE, SEMI SLAMMED ON HIS BRAKES WHILE SWITCHING TO MY LANE, HIT THE HORN AND I COULD SEE THE SMOKE FROM HIS TIRES LOCKING UP. MY VEHICLE SHIFTED DOWN TO SECOND GEAR AND SPED UP TO 80 MPH IN ABOUT 4 SECONDS. MY VEHICLE DETECTED THE SEMI ON THE RIGHT LANE AT THE CURVE, ME NOT KNOWING IF MY BRAKES LIGHTS CAME ON AS SOON AS MY SPEED DROPPED. HAD MY VEHICLE NOT SPED UP RIGHT AWAY, THE SEMI WOULD HAVE CRASHED MY VEHICLE AT THE CURVE.

MY 2010 TAHOE HAS THE NOTORIOUS CRACK IN THE DASH AT THE PASINGER SIDE AIR BAG. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE SAME VEHICLE. I PAYED FOR IT TO BE REPLACE THE FIRST TIME AND NOW IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD TO ME AND MY FAMILY. IF WE WHERE TO BE INVOLVED IN A ACCIDENT I AM AFRAID THAT PIECES OF THE DASH COULD FLY OFF AND BECOME PROJECTILES INJURING A MEMBER OF MY FAMILY.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE
RECENTLY PURCHASED A USED TAHOE FROM DEALERSHIP WITH WARRANTY.WHILE DRIVING IN SNOW MAKING A RIGHT TURN THE STABILITRAC LIGHT CAME ON, TRACTION CONTROL, AND ABS. THE VEHICLE FISHTALED, ENGINE LOST RESPONSE. THE ABS AND STABILITRAC WARNINGS CONTINUE FOR A SHORT TIME AND WENT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE SAFELY. SECOND INSTANCE IN THE RAIN, ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS TRAVELING IN THE FAST LANE, WANTED TO MOVE OVER FOR A FAST MOVING VEHICLE BEHIND ME. AS I WAS CHANGING LANES THE STABILITRAC LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN, THIS TIME PULSING THE A B S BREAKS. I HAD TO STEER HARDER TO THE RIGHT, TO GET OUT OF THE WAY. THE THROTTLE RESPONSE WAS LOW AS WELL. THE TAHOE IS CONSUMING HUGE AMOUNTS OF GAS. ABOUT 13MILES PER GALLON. DRAGS UP HILL. SEEMS LIKE IT HARD TO SHIFT INTO HIGHER GEARS. RETURN TO DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. DEALER CLEANED THROTTLE BODY, REPLACED MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR. RETURNED IT TO ME, I TOLD THE DEALER TO DRIVE IT,BEFORE I ACCEPTED IT BACK. THREE CODES POPPED UP. BACK TO CHEVY FOR DIAGNOSIS. YAW SENSOR NOT COMMUNICATING, ETC. I TOLD THE DEALER I FEEL THE VEHICLE ISN'T SAFE. I GAVE THEM A LIST OF CODES OFF MY CODE READER. IT DOESN'T SEEM THEY ARE TAKING IT INTO CONSIDERATION. WE HAVEN'T HAD THE VEHICLE A MONTH. THE DEALER IS PROVIDING A RENTAL. SEEMS LIKE A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE TAHOE AND OTHER CHEVY VEHICLES. THE DEALER ALSO TOLD ME I HAD TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM AND/OR HAVE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON FOR WARRENTY. THE STABILITRAC LIGHTS COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY AS WELL AS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I DON'T THINK THAT'S FAIR. THEY ARE HOWEVER TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE ISSUES. I FEEL LIKE THEY SOLD ME A CAR WITH KNOWN ISSUES.

I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I HEARD A LOUD POP. I THOUGHT A ROCK HAD HIT MY WINDSHIELD. WHEN I ARRIVED HOME I SAW SOME WHITE MATERIAL WHICH LOOKED LIKE COTTON ON THE DASH. AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION I REALIZED THAT THE "POP"WAS MY DASHBOARD CRACKING. MY CAR IS GARAGED ACCEPT WHEN I AM AT WORK, WHICH WHEN THERE ARE SUN PROTECTORS ON MY DASHBOARD DURING THE WARM MONTHS. MY TAHOE ONLY HAS 76,000 MILES ON IT.
