I HAVE A 2011 TAHOE WHICH I PURCHASED NEW. IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN PARKED IN A COVERED PARKING GARAGE DURING THE DAY AND IN MY COVERED CARPORT IN THE EVENINGS. IT HAS 58,000. MILES AND WHILE CLEANING THE TRUCK I NOTICED A CRACK IN THE DASH ON THE DRIVERS SIDE APPROXIMATELY 3.5 INCHES LONG AND ANOTHER CRACK ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE, IN THE CORNER OF WHERE THE AIRBAG IS LOCATED. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT THESE CRACKS COULD JEOPARDIZE THE INTEGRITY OF THE AIRBAGS. THE DEALERSHIP HAS STATED THAT I WOULD HAVE TO INCURE THE COST OF REPLACEMENT. THIS TRUCK IS STILL IN ABSOLUTE PERFECT CONDITION OTHERWISE.

I, LIKE SEVERAL HUNDRED CHEVY TAHOE, GM OWNERS (APPROXIMATE YEARS 2007-2013) ARE EXPERIENCING "CRACKED DASHES". THESE CRACKS ARE APPEARING AT VARIOUS LACES ON THE DASH BUT THE AREA OF MOST CONCERN IS ADJACENT TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. GM REFUSES TO TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE POTENTIAL HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. TOO, IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THESE HAVE BEEN WAY UNDER-REPORTED TO YOU. THESE IS A LENGTHY FACEBOOK SITE DEDICATED TO THE NUMBERS OF OWNERS FACING THESE CHALLENGES. PLEASE FORCE GM TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE POOR DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION PRACTICES.

HI I CURRENTLY OWN A 2011 CHEVY TAHOE LT MODEL WITH 78,547 MILE ON IT AND THE DASH IS CRARCKED AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND OVER THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND WHICH I THINK MIGHT COMPRIMISE THE AIRBAG ON DEPLOYMENT WHICH WOULD PUT MY CHILDREN AND PASSENGERS AT RISK OF A FATALITY IN THE EVENT THAT AN ACCIDENT OCCURS AND GM SHOULD RECALL THIS PROBLEM ITS NOT JUST MINE BUT MOST ALL GM MODELS 07-13 ARE AFFECTED BY THIS AND WE AS THE CUSTOMERS ARE CONCERNED WITH OUR PASSENGERS SAFETY AND WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS RECALLED BEFORE SOMETHING FATAL DOES OCCUR THANKS .

MY DASH HAS CRACKED AND I'M WORRIED THAT IF I'M EVER IN AN ACCIDENT THAT I MAY BE INJURED IF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOY AND SEND PIECES OF THE DASH AT ME. SEEMS TO BE A BIG PROBLEM WITH GM SUV'S AND TRUCKS.

DASH HAS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES. FIRST CRACK IS ON RIGHT SIDE OF DASH, TOP LEFT OF THE AIR BAG PANEL. SECOND CRACK IS ON LEFT SIDE OF DASH OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. MOST PEOPLE DON'T THINK ABOUT A CRACKED DASH BEING DANGEROUS. HOWEVER, IF THE AIRBAGS ARE DEPLOYED, FRAGMENTS COULD BECOME PROJECTILES THAT CAN HARM PASSENGERS. CHEVROLET/GM NEEDS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT.

I WAS WIPING DUST OFF THE DASHBOARD AND SAW A SMALL CRACK ON THE CORNER OF THE DASH THAT MEETS THE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT AS WELL AS A CRACK ON THE SAME DASH PANEL ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. AT THE TIME MY VEHICLE WAS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD BUT A FEW HUNDRED MILES PAST WARRANTY. I IMMEDIATELY REPORTED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THEY HAD RECEIVED NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS, BUT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR A REPLACEMENT. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT SEVERAL OF THOSE THAT HAD THEIR DASH REPLACED WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. AFTER SEEING THE SAME TYPE OF COMPLAINT FROM OTHER OWNERS AND THE CRACKS ON MY DASH CONTINUING TO SPREAD, I DECIDED TO FILE A COMPLAINT. MY CONCERN IS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THESE CRACKS CAUSING THE AIR BAGS TO MALFUNCTION AND INFLATE WHILE DRIVING CAUSING INJURY. EVERY PERSON I KNOW THAT HAS THIS VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM REQUESTING THAT YOU INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE. I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL AND A REPLACEMENT WITH A DASH THAT IS MADE OF A MORE DURABLE, SAFER MATERIAL.

MY 2010 CHEVY TAHOE LTZ HAS A CRACK RIGHT ABOVE MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. GIVEN THAT I HAVE SEEN THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE, THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A DEFECT AND A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE IF MY AIRBAG DEPLOYS, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT PIECES OF PLASTIC COULD INJURE SOMEONE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE FAILED TO YIELD AND THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE DRIVER SIDE OF THAT VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT DID NOT SUSTAIN ANY INJURIES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTO BODY REPAIR CENTER FOR BODY REPAIRS, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED FOR THE AIR BAG FAILURE. THREE YEARS LATER, WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO AN ANIMAL AND THEN INTO A GUARDRAIL. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BACK INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTO BODY REPAIR CENTER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY 2016 CHEVROLET TAHOE LTZ DISPLAYED "SERVICE FRONT CAMERA" WHEN I GOT INTO THE VEHICLE BUT DIDN'T EVEN START IT YET. ( SEE PIC) . I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY LOOKED AT IT AND TOLD ME YES ITS A KNOWN ISSUE BUT GM HAS NO REPAIR PROCEDURE YET FOR IT.THE VEHICLE HAS 89 MILES ON IT, HAVE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. THE WINDSHIELD IS PERFECTLY CLEAN AND NO OBSTRUCTIONS OF THE FRONT CAMERA. THE DEALERSHIP SAID I WILL HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT UNTIL THEY HAVE A FIX FOR IT. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE FRONT CAMERA RUNS MOST OF THE HIGHLY TOUTED SAFTEY FEATURES SUCH AS THE, FCA FORWARD COLLISION ALERT, LANE DEVIATION ALERT, EBS EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM, AND ON AND ON...... SO NOW THE $70K+ VEHICLE THAT WAS HYPED UP TO BE SOOO SAFE FOR MY FAMILY NOW HAS MOST OF THE SAFTEY FEATURES NON -FUNCTIONING AND GM KNEW ABOUT THIS AND STILL CONTINUES TO SELL THE VEHICLE AND WONT REPAIR. THERE ARE ALSO MANY OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE, BUT WILL NOTIFY IN DIFFERENT REPORT. THIS IS TERRIBLE FOR A VEHICLE OF THIS CALIBER. IM A LOYAL AND DEDICATED PAST TAHOE OWNER BUT THIS ONE MAY BE GOING BACK. IM APPALLED THAT GM IS LETTING VEHICLES CONTINUE TO BE SOLD WITH KNOWN SAFTEY ISSUES ESPECIALLY SINCE THEY JUST GOT CAUGHT WITH THE WHOLE IGNITION SWITCH FIASCO.

SEATS
THE CABLE SYSTEM TO LAY DOWN THE REAR 60/40 SPLIT BENCH REAR SEAT IS ALL MESSED UP. SEVERAL OF THE CABLES HAVE STRETCHED AND OR BROKEN OFF AT THEIR CONNECTING POINTS UNDER THE SEATS AND IN THE BACK OF THE SEATS UNDER THE UPHOLSTERY. TO ADD TO THE PROBLEM, THE TAP PULL TO PULL THE BOTTOM OF THE SEAT ON THE 60 SIDE NO LONGER OPERATES PROPERLY IN ORDER TO FLIP THAT PART OF THE SEAT FORWARD. THESE PROBLEMS HAVE VIRTUALLY RENDERED THE THIRD ROW SEATS, AND OR THE EXPANDING OF THE CARGO AREA USELESS. NOT ONLY HAS THIS PROBLEM RENDERED THE MIDDLE AND BACK OF THE VEHICLE USELESS, IT IS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE! THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE A RECALL ON ALL THESE MODELS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS TRAPPED IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE IN THE INSTANCE OF A SEVERE WRECK, OR GOD FORBID A FIRE. SOMEONE COULD GET TRAPPED AND BURN TO DEATH.
