ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHEN PLACED INTO REVERSE THE BACKUP CAMERA AUTOMATICALLY TURNS ON AT MAXIMUM BRIGHTNESS AND CANNOT BE DIMMED OR OVER RIDDEN. THIS CAUSES BLINDING AND INABILITY TO SEE OUT OF THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT. THE BRIGHTNESS IS SUCH THAT YOU CANNOT SEE OUT OF ANY WINDOWS FROM INSIDE THE VEHICLE. TO SEE OUTSIDE YOU MUST ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS BUT THIS ELIMINATES THE ABILITY TO SEE WHAT IS BEHIND YOU.

TAKATA RECALL. ON JUNE 20TH 2019 I CAME OUT TO GET IN MY VEHICLE TO LEAVE WORK. AS I WAS DRIVING, I NOTICED THE AC WAS NOT GETTING COLD AND ANTIFREEZE WAS CHECKED AND FINE. TOOK IT IN TO A CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE CONDENSER WAS OUT ON MY VEHICLE. I WAS JUST OVER 37,000 MILES WHEN THIS OCCURRED, DROVE OFF THE LOT BRAND NEW SEPTEMBER 2017, AND WAS TOLD SINCE IT WAS OVER MY 36,000 BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY NOTHING COULD BE DONE. DID OTHER RESEARCH AND CONDENSERS HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN RECALLED ON 2015-2017 CHEVY TAHOES, BUT WAS TOLD "MINE WAS NOT ONE OF THEM". I WAS ALSO TOLD BY OTHER MECHANICS THAT A CONDENSER SHOULD NOT HAVE GONE OUT SO SOON ON A NEW VEHICLE.

1# TAKATA INFLATORS REPLACEMENT PART IS AVAILABLE WITH NEW PART NUMBER.. THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE IT INSISTING IT'S SAFE IT'S 100F EVERY DAY HERE IN THE MOJAVE DESERT .. THEY BOOST BIG CLAIMS IT WILL NOT BE AN ISSUE..WHICH IS LAUGHABLE AT BEST IT SEEMS LIKE HIGH HEAT IS A ISSUE FOR THESE AIR BAGS BEING BAKED AT 140F FOR MOST OF THE DAY WE DEMAND A NEW AIR BAG WITH THE NEW PART NUMBER AS THEY SELL TO THE PUBLIC FOR $450 #2 INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES PEELING RAZOR LACERATION HAZARD.. SHARP PEELING OF DOOR HANDLE COATING IS SHARP (LACERATION HAZARD RESULTING FROM SHARP EDGES IN THE CHOME PLATING ON INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES) THE VEHICLE HAS THE ISSUE FOR MANY YEARS ATTACHED PHOTOS OF DOOR HANDLES GM AND GM DEALERS REFUSE TO FIX IT AS THEY CLAIM IT NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR.. FROM MY UNDERSTANDING A DOOR HANDLE IS NOT A KNIFE ... OR RAZOR BLADE WE KNOW THE RISK OF THOSE WHEN THEY ARE HANDLED NOT A DOOR HANDLE ITS NOT NORMAL FOR A DOOR HANDLE TO BE "SHARP" OR BECOME SHARP.. SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO FIX THIS DEFECT .. 3 OF THE 4 DOOR HANDLES ARE PEELING WITH SHARP EDGES VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 89K MILES I HAVE TO ALWAYS CAREFULLY EXIT AND LET PASSENGERS KNOW ABOUT THE SHARP DOOR HANDLES THIS CREATES AN UNNECESSARY HAZARD FOR CUTS TO THE HAND OR ARM... THE MANUFACTURE DATE IS 01/08 YEAR 2008 MODEL 2007 HAS SEEN ACTION WE WOULD LIKE ACTION ON OTHER YEARS AS WELL POSSIBLE FULL RECALL EA10-004..

THE A/C COMPRESSOR FAILED FROM A MELTED CLUTCH. I TOOK MY TAHOE IN FOR A ALIGNMENT AND THE A/C WAS WORKING FINE 2 DAYS LATER I HAD TO TAKE THE TAHOE BACK TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THE ALIGNMENT FELT OFF. THE DEALERSHIP CHECKED THE ALIGNMENT AND DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I PICKED UP THE CAR AND NOTICED THE A/C WAS NO LONGER WORKING. I TOOK THE TAHOE TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT BECAUSE THE PREVIOUS DEALERSHIP ASSURED ME THEY DIDN'T CAUSE THE ISSUE EVEN THOUGH IT HAPPENED RIGHT AFTER I PICKED UP THE TAHOE, AND THE A/C WAS WORKING WHEN I BROUGHT THE TAHOE INTO THE FIRST DEALER SHIP TO HAVE THE ALIGNMENT CHECKED AGAIN. OUR TAHOE ONLY HAS 50K MILES AND THIS ISSUES SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. I HAVE READ ONLINE AND THERE HAS BEEN MANY A/C ISSUES WITH THESE MODEL YEAR TAHOE AND GM EVEN ISSUES AND EXTENDED WARRANTY ON CERTAIN ISSUES WITH A/C, BUT THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS SIMILAR TO MINE AND GM HAS YET TO ADDRESS THEM

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT HIGH SPEEDS, 70-80 MPH, STEERING BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT FOR BRIEF PERIODS. OFTEN TIMES IT WAS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING ACTUATION OF THE AUTOMATIC WINDOW SWITCH. IT WAS ACCOMPANIED WITH A LOT OF THE LOSS OF ELECTRICAL POWER, A FLICKERING CONTROL PANEL, ABS LIGHT, STAB TRAK, BRAKE ASSIST, AND PARK ASSIST WARNINGS. A/C WOULD STOP, RADIO WOULD TURN OFF, THE DASHBOARD WOULD FLICKER, THEN I WOULD HAVE TO ACKNOWLEDGE ALL OF THE WARNINGS IN ORDER TO CLEAR THE ISSUE. STEERING WAS TOUGH, THOUGH CONTROLLABLE, BUT I QUESTION THE ABILITY OF A LESS EXPERIENCED DRIVE TO BE ABLE TO HANDLE THE SAME PROBLEM AT THOSE SPEEDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE AT LOWER SPEEDS, USUALLY WHILE BACKING UP TO PARK. AT LOWER SPEEDS THE SUV WOULD CUT OFF COMPLETELY. AT HIGHER SPEEDS, THE STALL WAS RECOVERABLE, VERY FORTUNATE IN THIS MATTER. UNABLE TO GET THE ISSUE TO REPEAT AT THE DEALERSHIP AND IT IS VERY INCONSISTENT. USUALLY RESETS ITSELF ONCE THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED.

STRUCTURE:BODY, SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE
BAD ENGINE CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. BURN EXCESSIVE OIL AND WATER. MOTOR MAKES LOUD NOISES. BRAKES HAVE TO BE CHANGED EVERY 2 MONTHS. GRINDING NOISES WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR FEET OF THE GAS , SOUNDS LIKE A 18 WHEELER BREAKING DOWN TO STOP. NOW THE ENGINE WON'T TURN OVER. REPLACED SENSORS AND TIMING BUT STILL NOT CRANKING. SO NOW IT NEEDS A MOTOR. DASHBOARD IS CRACKED UP SO BAD YOU CAN SEE INSIDE TO AIRBAG. WHICH SOMETIMES GETS EXTREMELY HOT.
