AIR BAGS
DASH AROUND AIRBAGS AND STEERING COLUMN IS CRACKED. NOTICED ONE ABOUT A YEAR AGO BUT IT HAS GROWN MUCH BIGGER AND NOW A BIGGER CRACK IS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE (NOTICED TODAY). CONCERNED IF IN ACCIDENT AND THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY THE CRACKED DASH WILL SPLINTER INTO FLYING PLASTIC SHARDS. ONLINE RESEARCH INDICATES THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH THIS GENERATION OF CHEVY TAHOE. HAVE OWNED VEHICLE SINCE PURCHASED NEW.

SERVICE BRAKES
REAR STEEL BRAKE LINES RUSTED OUT. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 50 MILES PER HOUR AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR & HAD TO PUMP BRAKES. HAD TO TURN OFF TO BERM OF ROAD TO KEEP FROM HITTING CAR IN FRONT OF ME. HAD TO HAVE REAR BRAKE LINES REPLACED AND THE MECHANIC SUGGESTED ALL BRAKE LINES BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF THE RUST. I HAD ALL THE BRAKE LINES REPLACED FOR OVER $600 DOLLARS. THE TAHOE HAS ONLY 41000 MILES ON IT AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. IT HAPPENS ALL OF A SUDDEN & IT TAKE A FEW SECONDS BEFORE YOU CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO, TAKING MUCH LONGER DISTANCE TO STOP. THEY NEED TO RECALL THESE BRAKES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BEFORE MORE ACCIDENTS HAPPEN.

SERVICE BRAKES
RETURNING FROM AN 80 MILE TRIP FROM WASHINGTON DC WHEN I APPROACHED A STOP LIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY. BRAKE PEDAL WENT COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR WHEN I TRIED TO ENGAGE. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO STOP SHORT OF HITTING CAR AHEAD OF ME. I PROCEEDED THROUGH LIGHT ONLY TO EXPERIENCE THE SAME ISSUE WHEN I PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY INTO A CONVENIENCE STORE AND CALLED MY HUSBAND. HE IMMEDIATELY DROVE TO THE DEALER AND DID HAVE BRAKES AT THAT TIME. THEY FOUND OIL IN THE BRAKE LINE. HAD TO REPLACE THE PUMP, PIPE, BOOSTER, CYLINDER AND BRAKE FLUID. IT WAS REPORTED TO ME THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES TO SAME MODEL. WHY NOT A RECALL? VERY UNSAFE! MY CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN I PRESS DOWN ON THE GAS, MY VEHICLE STALLS ABOUT FIVE SECONDS BEFORE IT ACTUALLY TAKES OFF. WHEN I TRY TO STOP, IT DOES NOT STOP RIGHT AWAY AS I PRESS DOWN ON THE BREAK. I'VE ALMOST REAR ANOTHER VEHICLE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE SITTING AT A RED LIGHT. I HAVE TO STAY AT LEAST 15 FEET AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. MY VEHICLE HAS SHUT DOWN WHILE I WAS DRIVING. MY ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND GOES OFF PERIODICALLY. IF I TURN MY WHEEL TO SHARPLY (REVERSE OR FORWARD), IT JERKS, MAKES A LOUD NOISE, AND THEN IT FEELS LIKE ITS ABOUT TO CUT OFF. I FEEL REALLY UNSAFE DRIVING, HOWEVER, I HAVE NO CHOICE BECAUSE I HAVE TO WORK.

AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING AT 45,000 MILES ON 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE DEALERSHIP RECHARGED THE A/C UNIT AND REFILLED THE FREON. I PAID $200 AND AFTER 3 DAYS THE AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. I HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK FOR A SECOND REPAIR. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL THE HVAC SHOULD NOT STOP WORKING AFTER 45,000 MILES
