SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKING SYSTEMS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKE PEDAL. ALL BRAKE PADS ARE GOOD; BRAKE CALIPERS ARE NEW; BRAKE FLUID IS AT MAX. I REPLACED EVERYTHING I FOUND ONLINE, BUT THE ISSUE IS THERE ON THE VEHICLE.

THE DASH HAS CRACKED IN THREE PLACES TWO ARE WHERE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS ON THE DASH. THE WORST ONE IS ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. IT CRACKED BAD SPLIT A PIECE FELL DOWN INSIDE. WE HAVE TAPE OVER IT TO KEEP IT TOGETHER. THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS IF A COLLISION HAPPENS. THIS TAHOE IS KEPT IN OUR GARAGE. UPON RESEARCHING YOUR WEB SITE I SEE 45 COMPLAINTS PERTAINING TO THE SAME PROBLEM. I STOPPED ON PAGE SIXTEEN. THAT SEEMS MORE THAN ENOUGH TO MAKE THE MANUFACTURE TO REPLACE THE DASH AT THEIR EXPENSE. THE QUALIFIED DEALERSHIP CHARGES OVER $1000 TO REPLACE THE DASH. PLEASE HELP.

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
AT SLOW RATE OF SPEED, PULLING INTO PARKING SPOT OR IN DRIVE-THRU LINES, THE BRAKE PEDAL TAKES EFFORT TO PUSH, TICKING, CLICKING AND GRINDING SOUND AND THE BRAKE PEDAL BEGINS TO VIBRATE AND VERY HARD TO PUSH DOWN TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I SEE THIS HAS BEEN RECALLED ON OTHER VEHICLES BUT NOT MY PARTICULAR TAHOE LTZ VIN# THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE SINCE SEPTEMBER 2019 AFTER THE CAR WAS PURCHASED.

I HAVE HAD TWO CRACKS DEVELOP ON THE DASH OF MY TAHOE. I HAVE NOT HIT ANYTHING NOR HAD AN ACCIDENT THAT WOULD CAUSE THESE CRACKS TO APPEAR. I BELIEVE THE PRODUCT USED TO CREATE THE DASH WAS INFERIOR WHICH HAS CAUSED THE CRACKING.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE DASH CRACKED ON PASSENGER SIDE 80 K.THIS VEHICLE IS VERY WELL-MAINTAINED IT LOOKS LIKE IT ROLLED OFF THE SHOWROOM FLOOR. TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL WHAT A JOKE. SO YOU RECALL THE VEHICLE BUT YOU DON'T HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX IT. THE VEHICLE HAS A DEFECT IN THE FUEL SYSTEM, I STARTED NOTICING IT WHEN I WOULD FILL UP WITH FUEL. IT HAS TO BUILD THE PRESSURE UP BEFORE IT'LL START. MANY MECHANICS TOLD ME THIS IS A DEFECT. KAT FRIDAY NIGHT I RAN AN ERRAND. PULLED IN THE DRIVEWAY EXITED THE VEHICLE HIT THE KEY FOB TO LOCK THE VEHICLE. I GO OUT THE NEXT MORNING AND I CAN SMELL BURNT WIRES. THE WINDOW/POWER LOCKS/MIRRORS MODULE ON DRIVERS SIDE DOOR CAUGHT ON FIRE. LUCKILY IT SHORTED OUT THE MODULE, BUT IT BURNT UP AND MELTED ONE OF THE CONNECTORS. THIS JUST HAPPENED SO I HAVE NOT HAD TIME TO FIGURE THE CAUSE. BURNS 2 QUARTS OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. GENERAL MOTORS THREW ME UNDER THE BUS IN 1988 ON A BRAND NEW PICK UP TRUCK WITH THE DEXCOOL ANTIFREEZE THAT ATE EVERY GASKET OUT OF THE ENGINE AND THEY REFUSED TO REPLACE IT I REPLACED IT AT MY COST WITH NO HELP FROM GENERAL MOTORS. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH THESE PEOPLE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF ALL THESE PROBLEMS THEY GOT TOP DOLLAR FOR THESE VEHICLES. ALL OF THESE OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SITTING STILL. THE DOOR HANDLE ON PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HAVE CUT SEVERAL PEOPLE. IT'S LIKE A RAZOR. A BRAND NEW VEHICLE HAS HAD A PIECE OF TAPE WRAPPED AROUND THE DOOR HANDLE HOW EMBARRASSING.

2021 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN, 79 MILES ON ODOMETER WHEN DRIVEN OFF LOT ON 02/22/21. VEHICLE FRAME AND SUSPENSION PARTS, AS WELL AS, CONTROL, STEERING, AND POWERTRAIN PARTS HAVE SIGNIFICANT CORROSION OCCURRING. VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED AND INSPECTED 11/2020. VEHICLE WAS VISUALLY INSPECTED BY OWNER. CURRENTLY IN PROCESS OF TRYING TO REMEDY WITH GM. CORROSION SO EARLY IN VEHICLE LIFE WILL UNDOUBTEDLY LEAD TO FAILURE. I RESIDE IN TACOMA, WASHINGTON. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN PUYALLUP, WASHINGTON. MORE PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. THERE ARE SEVERAL MORE AREAS OF CORROSION THAN PHOTO UPLOAD ALLOWED FOR. GM CLAIMS 2021 MODELS HAVE A NEW PROCESS WHEN MANUFACTURING AND TREATING METAL. IT APPEARS TO HAVE FAILED. THE CLIMATE HERE IS MILD, AND ROAD SALT IS NOT USED IN THE AREA.

CAR WOULD NOT TURN OVER/START AFTER STOPPING AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. OCCURRED ON A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET (ASHLEIGH ROAD IN FAIRFAX, VA)

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
TOOK DELIVERY OF VEHICLE ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 29TH, 2021. WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM PLYMOUTH, MA TO CONCORD, NH, I WAS USING THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL. I WAS TRAVELING BETWEEN 65MPH AND 70MPH. ROADS WERE COMPLETELY DRY, THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS NEAR ME, AND THERE WERE NO OBSTACLES IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS TRAVELING IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF A THREE LANE HIGHWAY. OUT OF NOWHERE, THE BRAKES WERE FORCEFULLY APPLIED BY THE COMPUTER WHICH NEARLY BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE. AFTER REACHING MY DESTINATION I NOTICED THAT THE CAMERA IN THE DRIVER SIDE MIRROR WAS NOT FUNCTIONING. CONTACTED DEALER THE FOLLOWING DAY AND RETURNED BACK TO DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED (NEARLY 2 HOUR DRIVE). DEALER STATED THAT THE ISSUE WITH THE CAMERA AND THE ISSUE WITH THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING WERE RELATED. PICKED VEHICLE UP ON FEBRUARY 8TH AFTER VEHICLE WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED. ARRIVED HOME AND DISCOVERED SAME ISSUE WITH CAMERA NOT FUNCTIONING. TOOK TO DEALER IN CONCORD, NH TO TRY TO REPAIR AGAIN ON 2/15/21 AND PICKED UP ON SAME DAY. DEALER FOUND LOOSE PIN IN CONNECTOR. DEALER STATED THAT THE CAMERA HAD BEEN REPLACED IN OCTOBER 2020 BEFORE I EVEN OWNED THE VEHICLE, SO SOMEONE KNEW THIS WAS AN ISSUE. TOOK VEHICLE ON A DRIVE ON 2/17/21. ALERT ON DASH NOW SAYS 'SERVICE DRIVER ASSIST SYSTEM.' I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND MY WIFE DOES NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING IT OR LETTING OUR TWIN 3 YEAR OLD BOYS RIDE IN IT. I HAVE A CASE OPEN WITH GENERAL MOTORS ON THIS BUT THEY HAVE DECLINED TO HELP WITH EXCHANGING THE VEHICLE. I'M THANKFUL THAT NOBODY WAS RIDING WITH ME AND THAT NO CARS WERE AROUND AND THAT IT WAS NOT SLICK WHEN THE BRAKING INCIDENT OCCURRED BECAUSE IT CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. PLEASE HELP ME.
