ENGINE
I PURCHASED MY TAHOE FROM THE DEALER BRAND NEW AND ALWAYS TOOK IT TO GET SERVICED AT THE SAME DEALER. IN 2015 I TOOK IT IN FOR A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THEY SAID THERE WAS A MISFIRE AND THEY REPLACED THE CAMSHAFT AND MACHINED THE HEADS STATING THAT THE VALVES WERE LEAKING. REPAIRS COST NEARLY $3000. THIS YEAR 2018 IN MARCH THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS A MISFIRE IN A CYLINDER THE SAME CYLINDER THAT WAS MIFIRING 3 YEARS PRIOR. THEY SAID A ROLLER ON THE ROCKER DISINTERGRATED AND REPAIRS WOULD COST CLOSE TO $6000 THIS IS NOT DUE TO ANYTHING I DID THE VEHICLE DOES EVEN HAVE 100,000 MILES ON IT. NO HARSH DRIVING OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MANUFACTURING ISSUE. NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT I THINK IT IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT.

WHEN DRIVING ON A MAIN HIGHWAY IF A BUMP IS HIT CAR BOUNCES EXTREMELY TOO MUCH. REALLY ROUGH RIDE OR BOUNCES LIKE A BASKETBALL DOWN THE ROAD. HAD A MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND SAID THE STRUTS ARE LOCKED UP AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. HE SAID HE SEES A LOT OF THE CHEVROLET TAHOE'S COMING IN WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. HAVE NOT GOTTEN THEM REPLACED YET BUT IT IS CRAZY HOW BAD IT HAS GOTTEN RECENTLY.

THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT 2 YEARS AFTER $60 BILLION OF TAXPAYER/CONSUMER MONEY BAILED THEM OUT. GM REFUSES TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AROUND THE AIRBAG AND ACROSS THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD.

AFTER 50000 MILES ON VEHICLE I BEGIN TO HEAR ENGINE NOISE COMING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE OF ENGINE. I CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT IT WAS THE VALVE LIFTERS. THIS HAPPEN AFTER A TRIP WHILE ON A HIGHWAY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE WHERE I BOUGHT IT TO HAVE IT REPAIR BUT WAS DENY REPAIR. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT REPAIR WITH WARRANTY, BUT WAS ALSO DENY REPAIR.

SERVICE BRAKES
WAS INVOLVED IN A AUTO ACCIDENT IN SEPT 2017 IN WHICH I REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE.I WAS TRAVELING SOUTHBOUND ON GREENMOUNT ROAD IN SHILOH IL. COMING TO A STOP AT A STOPLIGHT AT ABOUT 30 MPH, I WAS TRYING TO KILL A SPIDER SO MY EYES WERE OFF THE ROAD BUT WHEN THE COLLISION ALERT ALARM SOUNDED I IMMEDIETLY HIT THE BRAKES WHICH WERE HARD MAKING BRAKING DIFFICULT THERE IS NO WAY AN IMPACT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENDED. WHEN THE COLLISION ALERT ALARM SOUNDS THE BRAKE PEDALS BECAME HARD MAKING THE STOPPING OF THE CHEVY TAHOE IMPOSSIBLE SO I COULD NOT AVOID REAR ENDING OF THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. NOW WHILE DRIVING THE TAHOE WITHOUT THE COLLISION ALERT ACTIVATED THE SUV STOPS LIKE NORMAL, ONLY WHEN THE COLLISION ALERT IS ACTIVATED DOES THE HARD BRAKE PEDALS OCCUR WHICH TO ME IS THE OPPOSITE EFFECT.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK WITH EITHER THE KEY FOB OR THE UNLOCK BUTTON INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE CHILDREN ARE NOT ABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE ON THAT SIDE AND MUST EXIT ON THE STREET SIDE. THE CONCERN LIES IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY, THE PASSENGER IN THE BACK SEAT MAY NOT EXIT THE VEHICLE NOR MAY ANYONE ENTER FROM THAT DOOR AS IT IS LOCKED PERMANENTLY. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO GENERAL MOTORS FOR WHICH THEY TOLD ME THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE AND I WILL BE FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND REPAIRS INCLUDING ALL FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY. I AM AWARE OF A SIMILAR PROBLEM IN AN OLDER VEHICLE RECENTLY WHERE THE PASSENGER PERISHED IN A FIRE AS THE DOOR WAS INACCESSIBLE, ALSO A GM SUV. I WAS GIVEN A CASE NUMBER BUT WAS ADVISED MY CASE IS NOW CLOSED SINCE MY VEHICLE IS PASSED THE WARRANTY. CASE # 8-4228203687.
