2015 CHEVY TAHOE, WE PURCHASED TWO MONTHS AGO STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY. I WAS TURNING AROUND IN THE DRIVEWAY, HIT THE BRAKES, AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULDN'T MOVE. IT WAS EXTREMELY STIFF, CAUSING ME TO CRASH THE VEHICLE INTO MY UTILITY TRAILER. I PUSHED AS HARD AS POSSIBLE AND NOTHING HAPPENED. THERE WAS ALMOST NO BRAKING PRESSURE AT ALL AND MY SUV JUST KEPT GOING. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FOR MY FAMILY BUT NOW EVERYONE IS SCARED TO RIDE IN IT. I'VE FINANCED A VEHICLE FOR YEARS THAT I'VE HAD POSESSION OF FOR MONTHS, AND IT'S MOST NESSCERY SAFTEY FUNCTION HAS FAILED. I'M EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED. I'VE ALWAYS OWNED GM VEHICLES. AS A 31 YEAR OLD FATHER OF 3 SMALL CHILDREN, THIS WAS A VERY LARGE PURCHASE FOR OUR YOUNG FAMILY. NOW I FEEL I MAY HAVE TO LOOK OUTSIDE MY TRUSTED BRAND TO FIND A SAFE VEHICLE I CAN TRANSPORT THE MOST PRECIOUS CARGO IN. IT'S VERY DISAPPOINTING . I THEN FIND OUT THIS EXACT ISSUE HAS CAUSED MULTIPLE CRASHES INVOLVING INJURIES. GM IS AWARE THIS IS A PROBLEM, LAWSUITS HAVE BEEN FILED, YET LITTLE OR NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. HOW CAN GENERAL MOTORS KNOWINGLY TURN A BLIND EYE AND ALLOW THIS LIFE THREATING SAFTEY ISSUE TO GO ON IN A VEHICLE MARKETED TO FAMILIES?

'TAKATA RECALL' RECEIVED AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL(GM RECALL 49151) IN JULY 2016 SINCE THEN I CALL EVERY YEAR TO CHECK ON THE STATUS OF THE RECALL AND THEY ALWAYS TELL ME THERE IS NO NEED TO TAKE ACTION NOW. IT HAS BEEN OVER 3 YEARS NOW SINCE THIS DEFECT HAS NOT BEEN AVAILABLE TO REMEDY MY VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THAT THIS TIME FRAME HAS BEEN LONG ENOUGH TO MAKE MY VEHICLE SAFE AGAIN, SO MY QUESTION IS HOW MANY MORE YEARS DO I HAVE TO WAIT AND IS MY TRULY VEHICLE SAFE?

TAKATA INFLATORS. I WAS CONTACTED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS THAT MY VEHICLE WAS PART OF THE RECALL. EVERYTIME I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER I WAS TOLD THERE WAS BE REMEDY IT THIS TIME. IT SEEMS THAT GM IS HOLDING OUT IN PERFORMING THE RECALL ON A LARGE AMOUNT OF THEIR CONSUMERS. THIS HASENT BEEN FIXED IN A TIMELY MANNER. THEY HAVE HAD PLENTY OF TIME TO PREPARE AND COMPLETE THE RECALL THEY ARE JUST DRAGGING IT OUT. MY WIFE AND I ARE NOW STUCK WITH A VEHICLE THAT COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE BODILY HARM OR DEATH. WE CAN'T EVEN SELL THE VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE OPEN RECALL AND WITHOUT GM FIXING THE RECALL PEOPLE DON'T WANT TO PURCHASE A VEHICLE THAT COULD POSSIBLY KILL THEM. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT GM IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND PERFORM THE RECALL AS SOON 🔜 AS POSSIBLE. AND IF FOR SOME REASON THEY CAN'T PERFORM THE RECALL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE THEY SHOULD HAVE TO PAY RETRIBUTION TO THOSE THAT ARE AFFECTED BY THIS RECALL. VEHICLES ARE VERY EXPENSIVE AND CONSUMERS WORK REALLY HARD TO BE ABLE TO PURCHASE THESE VEHICLES. IT IS TIME TO GIVE THE CONSUMERS THAT ARE AFFECTED BY THIS RECALL SOMETHING FOR THEIR MONEY.

WHILE DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR MY WIFE EXPERIENCED A NEAR SUDDEN DETERIORATION IN BRAKING PERFORMANCE. THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY STIFF WITH LITTLE OR NO TRAVEL IN PEDAL REGARDLESS OF PRESSURE APPLIED. THIS DETERIORATION IN BRAKING PERFORMANCE BECAME CRITICAL - REQUIRING ALL THE FORCE MY 100LB WIFE COULD MUSTER TO BRING THE CAR TO A STOP. THE STIFF PEDAL WAS OBVIOUS WITH THE CAR ON AND OFF, MOVING AND STATIONARY. THOUGH THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AND WAS RECOGNIZED ONLY AFTER THE CAR WAS IN MOTION ON I84 (AT 65 MPH!!). OUR MECHANIC IDENTIFIED THE VACUUM PUMP AS THE CAUSE OF THE ISSUE.

AT LOW SPEEDS, OR IDLE, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES VERY HARD TO DEPRESS. LOSS OF POWER BOOST RESULTING IN EXTREME EFFORT TO ACTIVATE BRAKING. THIS HAPPENED WHILE STUCK IN A TRAFFIC JAM TRAVELLING AT SPEEDS OF LESS THAN 10 MILES PER HOUR FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES. PROBLEM LASTED UNTIL TRAFFIC RETURNED TO NORMAL SPEED, WHEN BRAKING RETURNED TO NORMAL. I BELIEVE I HAVE THE SAME VACUUM PUMP PROBLEM BEING CITED BY OTHER OWNERS.

TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET MY RECALLED AIRBAG REPLACED SINCE MAY, 2016, EVER SINCE RECEIVING NOTIFICATION FROM NHTSA. CHEVROLET HAS BEEN ALTERNATELY SAYING THAT A) PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE B) MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER AFFECTED AND C) THEY'RE CURRENTLY WAITING FOR AN ADJUDICATION FROM/WITH NHTSA. IN MY PHONE CALL TO CHEVROLET AFTER SEEING THAT THE RECALL IS STILL IN FORCE PER WWW.SAFEAIRBAGS.COM, I WAS TOLD THE RECALL NUMBER (9152) AND THAT NO REPAIR WAS CURRENTLY "AVAILABLE"; BUT THEY DID ESTABLISH A CASE FILE FOR ME [XXX]. I TOLD THEM THAT LIVE WITHIN 20 MILES OF THE ATLANTIC OCEAN (HIGH HUMIDITY ALLEGEDLY ADDS TO THE DEGRADATION OF THE AIRBAGS) AND THAT HAVING PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AS A USED VEHICLE IN OCTOBER, 2013, I HAD NO IDEA OF WHERE THE VEHICLE "LIVED" PRIOR TO MY OWNING IT - THAT FOR ALL I KNEW, IT COULD HAVE SPENT ITS "PREVIOUS LIFE" IN ANY OF THE GULF STATES. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT
