THE CAR WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE NOT RUNNING. I OPENED THE LIFT GATE. IT OPENED FINE THEN WHEN I WENT TO PUT SOMETHING INTO THE CARGO AREA THE LIFT GATE STARTED SLOWLY CLOSING. I BACKED OUT FROM UNDER IT AND IT SUDDENLY CRASHED CLOSED NEARLY HITTING ME. THE STRUTS HAVE NOT WORKED SINCE. WE HAVE TO MANUALLY OPEN THE LIFT GATE AND PROP IT OPEN WITH A BROOMSTICK HANDLE.

STEERING
THE STEERING MAKES A GRINDING NOISE WHEN TURNING TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT GET IT REPRODUCED, BUT FINALLY RECEIVED A BULLETIN ADVISING TO REPLACE THE STEERING BEARINGS. THIS WAS DONE YESTERDAY AND IT STILL DOES IT TODAY. I'VE READ OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME THING ON THE INTERNET, SOME MENTIONING IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS AGREED TO CONTACT THEIR ENGINEERS FOR ADDITIONAL GUIDANCE. HOWEVER, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY OF THIS ONGOING ISSUE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
THE VEHICLE HAS A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY AND THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR THAT CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO GO INTO "ENGINE POWER REDUCED" MODE WHICH BASICALLY MEANS THE VEHICLE DOESN'T MOVE. THE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING, BUT THE VEHICLE IS INOPERABLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME DOZENS OF TIMES, IN INTERSECTIONS, AND I HAVE TO ROLL OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ADDITIONALLY, THE INTAKE GASKETS LEAK ALLOWING FLUID INTO THE ENGINE. THE DASH CRACKED. WE HAVE ALSO REPLACED THE AIR RIDE SHOCKS (LTZ MODEL), THE CONNECTOR WILL WEAR A HOLE IN THE SHOCK. WE HAVE ALSO REPLACED BROKEN MOTOR MOUNTS AND TIE ROD ENDS. ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE WAS CONSTANTLY RUNNING HOT AND WE REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT AND RADIATOR. THE VEHICLE LEAKS OIL AND OUR MECHANIC SAID THAT IT'S THE REAR MAIN SEAL THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

STRUCTURE:BODY
THIS 2013 CHEVROLET TAHOE WAS PURCHASED IN AUGUST 2013. THE CHROME DOOR HANDLE ON THE PASSENGER FRONT DOOR JUST CAME OFF IN MY HAND AND HAD TO BE REPLACED IN AUGUST 2015. IN FEBRUARY 2016 THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT DOOR HANDLE BROKE OFF AND ALSO HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND I WAS ATTEMPTING TO OPEN AN UNLOCKED DOOR FROM THE EXTERIOR. I WAS TOLD THE CHROME DOOR HANDLES HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH BEING DEFECTIVE. ARE THERE ANY RECALLS, WHAT CAN I DO REGARDING REOCCURRING EXPENSES FOR REPAIRS ?

DASH IS CRACKING AROUND PASSENGER AIRBAG. VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND A SUN VISOR USED WHEN PARKED IN THE SUN. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN A COLLISION AND NONE OF THE AIR BAGS HAVE EVER DEPLOYED IN THIS VEHICLE. THE CRACK SEEMS COSMETIC BUT GIVEN THE LOCATION, I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE INTEGRITY OF THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
MY 2007 TAHOE ALL OF THE SUDDEN STARTED SHAKING AND BUCKING WHILE DRIVING WITH MY WIFE AND TWO SMALL KIDS (ON VALENTINES! WIFE WAS NOT HAPPY). THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL AS WARNING MESSAGES SAYING THE TRACTION CONTROL FAILED, CHECK BRAKE SYSTEM AND SERVICE STABILINK SYSTEM. IT LIMPED TO OUR HOUSE AND THEN IT STALLED AND EVENTUALLY WAS VERY HARD TO START. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP NEXT MORNING AND WAS TOLD THAT THE #6 LIFTER COLLAPSED AND THEY NEEDED TO CHECK THE CAMSHAFT TO SEE IF THAT WAS DAMAGED. I'M STILL WAITING ON THE CALL TO SEE WHAT THE TOTAL DAMAGE IS BUT I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. I ALSO SAW A LOT OF PEOPLE'S COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF THE SAME THING. GM NEEDS TO OWN UP AND RECALL THIS ISSUE. THE ESTIMATE I GOT WAS AROUND $3,500-$4,500 TO REPAIR THIS.
