THE AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING LATE IN 2019. IT STARTED GETTING COLD OUT SO WE DIDN'T NEED IT AT THE TIME. COVID 19 HIT AND I DIDN'T DRIVE THE CAR FOR WEEKS ON END. SO DIDN'T NEED AC. WHEN WE DID HAVE TO USE IT THE AC WAS BLOWING HOT AIR. THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 5 YEARS 60K MILES THAT WE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT. WE NEVER RECEIVED INFORMATION ON IT. WE HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALER MANY TIMES FOR OTHER SERVICE RELATED STUFF OVER THE YEARS AND NO ONE EVER MENTIONED OR EVEN CHECKED TO SEE IF THE AC UNIT WAS NOT WORKING. WE CONTACTED THE DEALER TO FIX IT UNDER THIS WARRANTY SOMETIME IN MAY OR JUNE OF 2020 AND WAS TOLD NO THAT THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY ENDED IN FEB 16, 2020. CONTACTED GM AND ASKED THE SAME THING. GOOD FAITH HELP WOULD HAVE BEEN REAL NICE. WE ARE A FEW MONTHS OVER THE 5 YEARS, BUT WELL UNDER THE 60K MILES. IS THERE ANYTHING WE CAN DO TO GET THIS COVERED UNDER THIS WARRANTY OR GET A RECALL ON IT. I HAVE SEEN MANY MANY MANY PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SAME THING AS I. THE CAR IS A LITTLE OVER 5 YEARS OLD. THE AC UNIT SHOULDN'T HAVE FAILED SO SOON. NOW I HAVE TO PAY WELL OF 1000 TO FIX IT OUT OF MY POCKET. I KNOW NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, EXCEPT HEAT EXHAUSTION.....PLEASE DO A RECALL ON IT, PLEASE!

MY 2014 CHEVROLET TAHOE HAS A 2 INCH CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE TTHAT STARTS AT THE TOP LEFT CORNER OF THE RECTANGULAR "CUT OUT" TO THE EDGE OF THAT PIECE OF THE DASHBOARD. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE AIR BAG IF THE CAR IS IMPACTED AND DO NOT TRUST GM'S ANALYSIS OF THIS QUESTION. FROM WHAT I AM READING ON THE INTERNET, THIS PROBLEM IS HAPPENING ALL TOO OFTEN AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED BY GM. THIS PROBLEM COULD ABSOLUTELY BE A SERIOUS, LIFE THREATENING ISSUE IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT.

AIR BAGS
MY COMPLAINT IS THE THE NHTSA IS NOT DOING ENOUGH TO FORCE A REMIDY ON THE MY VEHICLE'S TAKATA AIRBAG PROBLEM. THRU MANY YEARS OF INVESTIGATION AND LITIGATION WITH GM, IT NOW MORE THAN EVIDENT THAT GM KNOWS THEIR AIRBAGS WILL FAIL. IT ISN'T ABOUT IF BUT WHEN AND IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE THE NHTSA TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC AND CONSUMER. IF YOU WANT THE PUBLIC TO THINK YOU ARE SERVING IN THEIR BEST INTEREST, THAN RESOLVE THIS WHOLE TAKATA AIRBAG PROBLEM.

SERVICE BRAKES
I DECIDED TO TAKE A DAY TRIP UP TO LAKE TAHOE- FROM FOLSOM CALIFORNIA. IT'S ABOUT 88 MILES AWAY. WE MADE IT TO THE TOP OF THE SUMMIT AND ON THE WAY DOWN MY BRAKES STOPPED WORKING. IT WAS AS HARD AS ROCK. I COULDN'T PUSH DOWN ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AT ALL!! IT WAS SO SCARY. AS THE PEOPLE IN FRONT OF ME WOULD BRAKE I HAD TO USE MY PARKING BRAKE TO SLOW IS DOWN. MY ONLY OPTION WAS TO CRASH INTO THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME TO STOP US OR USE THE GUARD RAIL AND POSSIBLY GO OVER THE SIDE OF A CLIFF!! MY CAR WAS LOADED WITH 5 CHILDREN AND 2 ADULTS. WE WERE ALL TERRIFIED. I HAD NO INDICATION AS THE DRIVER THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG WITH MY BRAKES UNTIL THAT MOMENT. THERE WEREN'T ANY LIGHTS OR WARNINGS THAT SOMETHING WASN'T WORKING PROPERLY. MY HOPES IS TO REPORT THIS AND NOT LET IT HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
ONE EVENING I DROVE TO THE STORE AND PLACED MY TRUCK ON PARK FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES WITHOUT SHUTTING THE VEHICLE OFF. ONCE I'M BACK IN AND GOING IN REVERSE I NOTICED THAT THE ASSISTED POWER STEERING WASN'T WORKING. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY TERMINALS AND WAITED BUT THE EPS NEVER CAME BACK ON. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOED TO MY NEARBY CHEVROLET DEALER WHOM LATER CONCLUDED THAT THE STEERING GEAR AND SOME COMPUTER MODULE NEEDED REPLACED. THEY BILLED ME FOR APPROXIMATELY $2900. NOW, HERE I AM EXACTLY ONE YEAR LATER WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! EXPIRED WARRANTY AND A HUGE BILL OF REPAIR. I HAVE THE DEALER RECEIPTS ON FILE.

WHEN ACCELERATING IT SOUNDS LIKE MY VEHICLE IS STUCK IN BRAKE DEGRADING OR IS MAKING THAT DISTINGUISHING NOISE. MY VEHICLE IS IN THE SHOP FOR THE SECOND TIME TO FIX THE SAME ISSUE OF PARK ASSIST, SIDE DETECTION AND FRONT CAMERA SERVICE. WHEN EXPRESSING MY CONCERN FOR THIS PROBLEM OF THE SOUND THE DEALERSHIP SAID LET'S FIX THE SERVICE ISSUES FIRST AS EVERYTHING IS ELECTRONIC. I HOPE MY VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE.

DASHBOARD HAS BECOME CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND THE DASHBOARD ALSO HAS NUMEROUS OTHER CRACKS. THE CRACKS HAVE DEVELOPED OVER THE TIME SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN SEPTEMBER 2015. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PICTURES RELATING TO THIS ISSUE CIRCULATING ONLINE. I ALSO PURCHASED THE BEST WARRANTY GM OFFERS, INCLUDING THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY, BUT THAT DIDN'T INCLUDE THE DASHBOARD AS I WAS TOLD.

MY 2014 TAHOE DASH IS CRACKED BETWEEN THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND THE WINDSHIELD VENT. I IS JUST HARD PLASTIC. I HAVE A SUNROOF AND KEEP IT OPEN DURING THE HOT MONTHS AND THE WINDOWS ARE CRACKED TO ALLOW THE HOT AIR TO ESCAPE. I ALSO KEEP HUGE SUN SHADES IN THE WINDSHIELD. I TRIED TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. ALL SHE COULD DO WAS TRY TO MEND THE CRACK BUT DIDN'T HAVE ANY LUCK IN FILLING THE GAP. SHE SAID SHE SEES A LOT OF THESE AND BELIEVES IT IS DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW. I BELIEVE IT TOO. MY DASH STILL MOVE UP AND DOWN WHEN DRIVING. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND REPAIRED OR REPLACED AT GM'S EXPENSE. I HAVE ASKED MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP HOW MUCH FOR THEM TO INSTALL A NEW ONE. IT WOULD BE $ 1,500.00. I NEED SOMEONE WHO KNOWS WHAT TO DO BECAUSE IT INVOLVES THE AIRBAG. I AM A DEVOTED CHEVY OWNER AND HAVE SPENT WAY TOO MUCH MONEY TO HAVE SOMETHING LIKE CHEAP PLASTIC AS A DASHBOARD.
