AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
LIKE EVERYONE ELSE I HAVE SPOKEN TO WITH 2007-2013 YEAR MODEL CHEVROLET VEHICLES MY DASHBOARD IS CRACKED BECAUSE OF A DESIGN FLAW. I AM WORRIED THAT MY PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WILL NOT WORK CORRECTLY BECAUSE OF THE CRACK. I HAVE CONTACTED GM FOR HELP BUT THEY OFFER NOTHING. THE CRACK HAS GOTTEN WORSE OVER THE YEARS AND IS NOW REALLY BAD. GM IS PITIFUL

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I DROVE MY VEHICLE IN THE MORNING AND THEN PARKED IT FOR ABOUT 2.5 HOURS. WHEN I STARTED MY VEHICLE THE GAS GAUGE SHOWED MY CAR WAS EMPTY, EVEN THOUGH I HAD JUST RECENTLY FILLED UP AND HAD ONLY GONE ABOUT 80 MILES ON THE TANK, MY AIRBAG READINESS LIGHT STAYED ON, AND NONE OF MY GAUGES WERE FUNCTIONING. ALSO, THE LIGHT FOR THE PASSENGER AIR BAG ABOVE MY REVIEW MIRROR DIDN'T ILLUMINATE AT ALL. I DROVE IT FOR A FEW SECONDS AND TRIED TURNING IT OFF AND THEN BACK ON, BUT NOTHING CHANGED. AFTER DRIVING IT FOR A FEW MILES, I PARKED AND TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AGAIN. WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON, EVERYTHING BEGAN WORKING AGAIN. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE, BUT WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, I COULD NOT GET IT TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE. BESIDES THE OBVIOUS DANGER OF NOT HAVING ANY GAUGES WHILE DRIVING, MY FEAR IS THAT THE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT WORK PROPERLY IN AN ACCIDENT.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
STARTED MY TAHOE TO DRIVE HOME AND I'M GOING 70 MPH DOWN A HIGHWAY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY ENGINE LIGHT POPS ON AND SAYS ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED PLUS IT SAYS SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND SERVICE STABILITRAK. I WENT FROM 70 MPH TO 20 MPH IN LESS THAN 5 SECONDS AND NOW MY TAHOE IS SPUTTERING AND HAS NO POWER. THE WHOLE VEHICLE IS VIBRATING. I'VE SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE MULTIPLE TIMES AND I CAN'T GET THE ERROR TO GO AWAY. SITTING AT AN IDLE MY RPMS FLUCTUATE CONSISTENTLY. UNKNOWN BUT I HAVE A FEELING THAT THE THROTTLE BODY IS GOING OUT ON THE ENGINE, IT WOULD BE THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF THAT WOULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO DROP SPEED AND SPUTTER LIKE THIS NON STOP.

AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING
I WAS DRIVING A 2016 CHEVY TAHOE ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET. MY CAR LOST ALL CONTROL OF STEERING AND BRAKES. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR VEERED TO THE RIGHT AND HIT A CAR, CONTINUED ON HITTING 2 MORE PARKED CARS, DROVE THRU SOMEONE'S LARGE HEDGES, AND WAS SECONDS AWAY FROM DRIVING INTO SOMEONE'S HOUSE BUT WAS STOPPED WHEN I HIT THE 2 PARKED CARS IN THE DRIVEWAY. MY AIRBAG ALSO DID NOT DEPLOY. TWO CARS INVOLVED WERE TOTALED. AGAIN, I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE STEERING OR THE BRAKES. THANK GOD I'M ALIVE AND I DIDN'T KILL ANYONE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY 2011 CHEVY TAHOE WAS IN MOTION ON A TOWN ROAD WHEN SEVERAL ALERTS CAME UP ON THE DASHBOARD INCLUDING SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE STABILINK AND REDUCED ENGINE POWER. THE LOCAL DEALER USED A SCAN TOOL AND FOUND DTC # P2135 - THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. GM HAS A SERVICE BULLETIN #11273A THAT AUTHORIZES FULL REPLACEMENT OF THE SENSOR AT NO COST TO THE CUSTOMER FOR AFFECTED VEHICLES. AFFECTED VEHICLES INCLUDE 2008 - 2011 CHEVY TAHOE'S. BUT GM SAYS MY VIN ON 2011 TAHOE IS NOT COVERED. THIS IS CLEARLY A MAJOR PART DEFECT FOR THAT SPANS MULTIPLE DECADES AND MULTIPLE GM VEHICLES THAT CAN RESULT IN THE VERY UNSAFE AND UNEXPECTED LOSS OR REDUCTION IN ENGINE POWER. CLEARLY THIS PART DEFECT IS AFFECTING MORE VEHICLES THAN JUST THOSE SELECTIVELY COVERED UNDER THE SERVICE BULLETIN. A CALL TO GM SERVICE RESULTED AS EXPECTED AND THEY WERE UNWILLING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE WITH THE TPS IS MORE PERVASIVE THAN THEY HAVE CLAIMED. THEY REFUSED TO COVER THE COST OF MY REPAIR DESPITE THE FACT THIS IS CLEARLY A DEFECTIVE PART.

STRUCTURE:BODY
I CAME OUT OF MY HOUSE AND GOT IN MY TRUCK (2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE LTZ) YESTERDAY MORNING (1/15/2019). AFTER I STARTED MY TRUCK I HEARD STRANGE NOISES, AS IF SOMETHING WAS POPPING/CRACKING. I LOOKED AROUND INSIDE MY TRUCK BUT DIDN'T REALLY NOTICE ANYTHING BECAUSE I WAS LOOKING IN THE REAR, LEFT AND RIGHT OUT THE WINDOWS. I OPENED THE SUNROOF COVER & DIDN'T NOTICE ANYTHING, UNTIL I LOOKED DOWN AND SEEN TWO SEPARATE CRACKS ON TOP OF MY DASHBOARD. ONE LONG CRACK ABOUT 3 OR 4 INCHES LONG ON TOP OF MY DASHBOARD, OVERTOP OF MY GAUGES AND ANOTHER CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BY THE AIRBAG ON TOP OF THE DASHBOARD ABOUT 1 INCH AND A HALF LONG. I DON'T KNOW HOW MY DASHBOARD CAN JUST CRACK ON ITS OWN, BUT I DO KNOW THAT IT WAS NOT THERE DAYS BEFORE BECAUSE I HAD MY TRUCK DETAILED INSIDE/OUT AFTER BEING FULLY PAINTED. I CHECKED ONLINE DIDN'T SEE ANY RECALLS FROM GM FOR CRACKED DASHBOARDS ON 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE'S BUT I DO SEE A LOT OF RANDOM COMPLAINTS WERE NUMEROUS PEOPLE HAD THE SAME ISSUE ON VARIOUS OF GM TRUCKS FROM 2007-2014.
