STEERING, SUSPENSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHEN DRIVING, DRIVER AND PASSENGERS GET SEVERE HEADACHES, DIZZINESS, AND DISORIENTATION. THE CAR ALSO VIBRATES QUITE A BIT. THE PRESSURE INSIDE THE CABIN CAN BE FELT UPON TURNING ON THE VEHICLE, AND OPENING THE WINDOWS DOES NOT HELP. THE SENSATION ALMOST FEELS MAGNETIC. THE ORIGINAL TIRES FAILED A ROAD BALANCE TEST AND WERE REPLACED. THIS DID NOT HELP THE ISSUE.

MY 2010 WITH 80,000 MILES HAS A CRACKED DASH. A CRACK ABOVE THE GAGE AN ONE THAT I'M REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT ATTACHED TO MY AIRBAG. IN DOING SOME RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS CRACKING IS A HUGE PROBLEM FOR GM OWNERS FROM THE YEAR 07-13! MY CONCERN IS IF THE AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY THAT THE PLASTIC WOULD BE SENT FLYING AN HURT PASSENGERS. GM HAS HAD MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AN HELPS SOME PEOPLE AN NOT OTHERS! I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AN SHOULD BE RECALLED.

SEAT BELTS
ON MARCH 17,2015 I LEFT MY HOME DRIVING MY VEHICE WITH THE SEAT BELT ON I GOT TO MY DESTINATION AND WHEN I TRIED TO FASTENED MY SEAT BELT , I HAD TO DRIVE BACK HOME UNBUCKLE, I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET IT THIS SAFETY CONCERN CHECKED, THEY CAME BACK AND TOLD ME THAT THE DRIVERS SEAT BELT LATCH WAS STUCK IN CLOSED POSITION, THEY NEVER SAID IT WAS DUE TO WEAR AND TEAR, THEY SAID THEY HAD TO REPLACE IT, THEY DID AND CHARGE ME FOR IT. I FILE A CLAIM WITH CHEVROLET AND 4 DAYS LATER THEY CAME BACK SAYING THAT THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SEAT BELT ISSUE THAT IT WAS WEAR AND TEAR, I MENTIONED TO THEM THAT MY TRUCK IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD,THEY SAID THAY HAD TO GO BACK AND SEE HOW THE PREVIOUS OWNER TREATED THE TRUCK AND ALSO THAT I PURCHASE A USED VEHICLE. I DISAGREE WITH EVERY SINGLE WORD THEY SAID. I THINK CHEVROLET IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SAFETY ACCESSORIES THEY INSTALL ON EVERY SINGLE VEHICLE. I THANK GOD NOTHING HAPPENED TO ME WHILE I DROVE WITHOUT A SEAT BELT. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY CARS OUT THERE HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE.

WHEELS
SPARE TIRE WHEEL DIAMETER IS SMALLER THAN THE DIAMETER OF THE FOUR WHEELS ON THE VEHICLE. THE FOUR MAIN WHEELS HAVE 18" WHEELS. THE SPARE TIRE WHEEL IS A 17" DIAMETER. IF THE SPARE TIRE IS USED ON THE REAR DRIVE WHEELS, THE SMALLER SPARE WHEEL WOULD TURN AT A FASTER RPM THAN THE REGULAR TIRE. IS THIS PERMITTED? SEEMS DANGEROUS TO ME.

ONE MORNING I CAME OUT TO FIND A 1/4 INCH CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD IN FRONT OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. AFTER A COUPLE DAYS IT GREW TO ABOUT AN INCH. I KEEP THE TRUCK IN SHOWROOM CONDITION AND AM SHOCKED TO FIND HOW COMMON THIS IS ON $64,000 TRUCKS WITHIN 1-3 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. IT'S UNACCEPTABLE. MY 1998 TAHOE INTERIOR WAS PERFECT AND IT HAD 300,000 MILES. THE CRACK APPEARED OVERNIGHT.

I HAVE A 2008 CHEVY TAHOE LTZ AND THE DOOR LOCKS JUST QUIT WORKING ONE DAY. ON ALL 4 DOORS!! THE KEY FOB WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK THE DOORS NOR WILL THE LOCK OR UNLOCK BUTTON IN THE CAR WILL WORK. I FEEL THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. WHAT IF YOU ARE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WITH NO WAY TO LOCK YOUR DOORS AND SOMEONE JUMPS IN YOUR CAR WITH YOU WITH A GUN! I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN AND THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR ME! PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL FOR THE DOOR LOCKS.
