STRUCTURE:BODY, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
AFTER HEAVY RAIN I NOTICED THAT BOTH OF MY BACK DOORS SOUNDED LIKE THERE WAS A GALLON OF WATER INSIDE OF THEM. I READ THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE! I CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE AMOUNT OF RUSTING HAPPENING INSIDE OF THERE AS WELL AS ELECTRICAL DAMAGE & RISKS OF HAVING WET SPEAKERS & WIRING INSIDE THE DOOR. UNACCEPTABLE. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL.

SERVICE BRAKES
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH OR LESS, THE VEHICLE REQUIRED EXCESSIVE EFFORT TO STOP. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS, WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KOONS CHEVROLET (LOCATED AT 10207 PHILADELPHIA RD, WHITE MARSH, MD 21162, (410) 931-8600) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHEN DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS, PARTICULARLY TO PARK, THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK. YOU CAN PUT THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE KEEPS GOING. THIS ONLY OCCURS WHEN AT A SLOWER SPEED, IN BOTH DRIVE AND REVERSE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC AND THE VACUUM PUMP HAS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT, AS I ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR BECAUSE I COULDN'T STOP.

SUSPENSION
THE VEHICLE IS VERY BOUNCY AND HARD TO STEER. TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP THEY ADVISED IT NEEDED NEW SHOCK ABSORBERS. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE LTZ, SURBURBAN LTZ, CADILLAC ESCALADE AND GMC DENALI THAT GENERAL MOTORS IS FAILING TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF.

SERVICE BRAKES
SINCE MAY THE BRAKES HAVE NOT WORKED INTERMITTENTLY AND TO STOP THE CAR I HAD TO PRESS DOWN AS HARD AS POSSIBLE. EARLY ON I HAD THE FLUID LEVELS AND BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS CHECKED AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE FINE SO I WAS NOT SURE OF THE PROBLEM UNTIL I SAW A BULLETIN FROM YOUR OFFICE. I THEN TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED IT AS LOW OUTPUT FROM THE VACUUM PUMP. IT COST NEARLY $700 TO REPLACE AND IN MY OPINION SHOULD BE PUT ON RECALL AS IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO HAVE THE BRAKES FAIL INTERMITTENTLY. I ALMOST HAD A NUMBER OF ACCIDENTS DUE TO THIS ISSUE AND HAD TO HAVE MY VEHICLE PULLED FROM THE WATER WHEN LAUNCHING MY BOAT.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON THE EVENING OF NOVEMBER 27TH, MY CAR WITH 10,200 MILES HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES MAKING IT UNDRIVABLE. I ATTEMPTED TO PULL MY CAR OUT OF A PARKING SPACE. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, I FELT A HARD THRUST. THE THRUST WAS SO HARD THAT I FELT LIKE A CAR HIT ME. I ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE; HOWEVER, IT WOULD NOT REVERSE WHEN I STEPPED ON THE GAS PEDAL. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, IT BARELY MOVED. AS IT MOVED, I FELT THE POWER STEERING LOCK, AND I COULD NOT MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ON THREE TIMES AND ENCOUNTERED THE SAME ISSUES. AT THIS POINT, I WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF A PARKING LOT IN A ODD PLACE WHERE CARS HAD TO GO AROUND ME. WHEN THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED TO MOVE THE CAR, THE DRIVER ENCOUNTERED THE SAME ISSUES. HE POINTED OUT THERE WERE NO RPMS ON THE CAR. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER HAD TO TOW THE CAR FROM BEHIND, AS I WAS STUCK IN AN ODD POSITION AT THE EDGE OF THE PARKING LOT. AFTER TWO WEEKS, MY CAR REMAINS AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP STATES IT'S A COMPLEX ELECTRICAL ISSUE. THEY ARE WAITING TO FIND OUT IF GM CAN FIX IT OR WORSE....THEY WILL JUST GIVE IT BACK. I AM BEGGING TO HAVE THIS INVESTIGATED AS I WOULD HAVE FOR ANYONE OR MYSELF TO ENCOUNTER THIS FAILURE WHILE DRIVING.

AIR BAGS, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
AIR BAG RECALLS, AROUND MY AIRBAGS THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON BECAUSE OF THE GAS CAP. SO THAT MAKES MY AUTOMATIC START NOT WORK. VERY DISAPPOINTED. WOULD LOVE TO GIVE MY SON A TRUCK I WORKED SO HARD TO PAY FOR... BUT THE AIRBAGS BEING RECALLED AND DEALERSHIP NOT HAVING AIRBAGS TO REPLACE IS VERY UNFORTUNATE FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF, MY CHILDREN, AND MY FAMILY. I WISH GM WOULD MAKE IT RIGHT!
