Passenger side rear air conditioning blower motor caught on fire and burned vehicle out completely. Fire trucks called to put out fire but is completely burned out. My safety was at risk flames in back by the time I got stopped on highway. Thankful no one was riding in back seat. First issue I had with it and it torched the vehicle. No warnings on dash. Vehicle is waiting to be inspected by insurance adjuster.

The contact owns a 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact stated that while driving 35 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed, and the vehicle pulled to the left very hard, almost causing the contact to lose control of the vehicle. The ABS and brake warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the EBCM motor relay circuit needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 91,632.

My 2001 Chevy Tahoe has been stolen an I been trying to get it back but I can’t bc I left the title in the Tahoe

I bought Achilles desert hawk uhp 285/50/R20 tires in late 2019 from Walmart . and had them mounted in 2020 from discount tire. Within 10 months of tires being mounted I had a vibration and it was getting worse every day so I started looking at it and found I had a separated tire on the driver's side front. I put my spare on and contacted Walmart which told me sorry for your luck and there is nothing they can or will do.so I contacted discount and they said to contact Achilles tire. I did and never heard back from them. I then forgot about it until roughly 5 months ago when passenger tire was separated. Then 3 days ago the passanger rear separated and now today the driver's rear has separated. I understand 1 tire possibly 2, but to have all 4 tires separate in less than 2 years and in under 10,000 miles is mind blowing to me..I have all the tires and I filed a complaint with Walmart and Achilles after the 2nd one. I honestly don't think it's discount tires responsibly. I only had them install tires because walmart would make excuse after excuse and I got fed up with it. There should be some sort of liability to the manufacturer and to Walmart. I am asking you if it's possible to look into this. 4 tires separate in 2 years you ée⁷⁷e77⁷e⁷

Bad transmission there's reverse but no forward gears

In the past I have sent several emails to Chevrolet corporate office re the ABS brake system on my Tahoe which first failed with only 130 miles on the vehicle. Vehicle almost tipped over but I recovered the braking system and stopped vehicle only inches from going off a cliff and into the ravine below. I love my Tahoe which now has 109000+ miles on it but the ABS brake system has never worked and on several occasions almost wiped out myself and a passenger because brakes failed to engage. I filed several complaints with the Chevrolet dealer in Austin, TX where I bought my Tahoe and also here in Taos, NM where I currently live. Recently I had the Chevrolet dealer here in Taos run a diagnostic on my ABS brakes. Result was that the brake system was defective and would cost $2000 to repair! I feel Chevrolet should pay for the repair since my Tahoe was delivered from the factory with defective ABS brakes. As it is, my Tahoe cannot be resold since the system as is could kill anyone in this vehicle if they did not know how to recover when pedal is all the way to the floor and vehicle is picking up speed rather than slowing down. Certainly even I could hit an elk standing in middle of highway because I would not be able to recover brake system in time.

EMERGENCY BRAKE WEARS ITSELF WITHOUT BEING ENGAGED TO THE POINT WHEN YOU NEED IT, IT DOES NOT WORK. *TR

THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BELT LOCKS UP AND CAN'T BE ADJUSTED. IT CONTINUES TO GET TIGHTER AFTER FASTENING AND ALLOWS FOR NO MOVEMENT. IT IS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE AND DOES NOT ALLOW FOR ANY MOVEMENT. IT HAS BEEN THAT WAY SINCE ORIGINAL PURCHASE IN 2001. I HAVE BROUGHT TO ATTENTION OF CHEVY DEALERSHIP. ANSWER ALWAYS BEING THAT THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE.

WAS DRIVING TAKING KIDS TO SCHOOL IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBOR HOOD . WHEN I MADE A TURN ONTO A STREET THE TRUCK DROPPED TO RIGHT SIDE AND THE TIRE AND AXLE ROLLED INTO ANOTHER CAR. TURNING 5 MILE HR

REAR STEEL BRAKE LINES RUSTED OUT. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 50 MILES PER HOUR AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR & HAD TO PUMP BRAKES. HAD TO TURN OFF TO BERM OF ROAD TO KEEP FROM HITTING CAR IN FRONT OF ME. HAD TO HAVE REAR BRAKE LINES REPLACED AND THE MECHANIC SUGGESTED ALL BRAKE LINES BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF THE RUST. I HAD ALL THE BRAKE LINES REPLACED FOR OVER $600 DOLLARS. THE TAHOE HAS ONLY 41000 MILES ON IT AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. IT HAPPENS ALL OF A SUDDEN & IT TAKE A FEW SECONDS BEFORE YOU CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO, TAKING MUCH LONGER DISTANCE TO STOP. THEY NEED TO RECALL THESE BRAKES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BEFORE MORE ACCIDENTS HAPPEN.

TWO RUSTED BRAKE LINES FROM THE MASTER CYLINDER TO MASTER DISTRIBUTION BLOCK UNDER THE TRUCK CAUSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO GO TO THE FLOOR AT 50 MPH AND RAN THRU A 4 WAY STOP INTERSECTION IN A RURAL AREA, THANK YOU JESUS I'M ALIVE, LOT'S OF RUST ON THE LOWER ROCKERS ETC. ON BOTH SIDES

MY ABS LIGHT IN ON AND WHEN I PUSH DOWN ON IT MAKES NOISE PLUS IT PUSH BACK A LITTLE

MY PASSENGER SEAT COT ON FIRE. MY TRUCK WAS PARKED IN THE MALL PARKING LOT AS MY SELF HUSBAND AND TWO CHILDREN CAME OUT FROM SHOPPING TO MY THE CAR I OPENED MY PASSANGER DOOR I GOT IN AND ADJUSTED MY PASSANGER SEAT FOR COMFORT AND MY HUSBAND WAS GETTING THE GIFT AND KIDS IN THE TRUCK AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I SMELLED SMOKE.I GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND I STARTED TO LOOK WHERE THE SMELL WAS COMING FROM AND LOOKED UNDER MY PASSENGER SEAT AND THERE WAS SPARKS COMING FROM UNDER THE SEAT THERE WAS A BLACK BOX UNDER THE SEAT THAT WAS SPARKING I CALLED 911 AND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME AND PUT THE FIRE OUT MY WHOLE PASSANGER SIDE BURNED AND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT SAID IT WAS THE MOTOR BOX UNDER THE SEAT THAT COT FIRE BAD ELECTRICAL WIRING HE SAID. THE CAR WAS PARKED AND WE HAD NOT STARTED IT THE ONLY THING I DID WAS ADJUST MY SEAT AND AS I WAS WAITING FOR MY HUSBAND TO GET IN AND KIDS THO GET BUCKLED I SMELT SOMETHING BURNING AND MY SET GOT HOT. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS HAPPENED

THE STEEL BRAKE LINE FROM THE ABS UNIT TO THE REAR BRAKES HAS CORRODED AND IS LEAKING FROM ABOVE THE STEEL FRAME FORWARD FROM THE LEFT REAR TIRE. FORTUNATELY THIS OCCURRED AS I PULLED INTO MY GARAGE AFTER DRIVING OVER 150 MILES ROUND TRIP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND IN CITY TRAFFIC. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN DISASTERIOUS, CAUSING SERIOUS INJURIES, DEATH, AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE IF THE LINE WOULD HAVE FAILED DURING THE TRIP! AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET, THIS BRAKE LINE FAILURE LOOKS LIKE IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM!

ERROR MESSAGE POP UPS C01960. MY ABS LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT POPS UP WHILE I'M DRIVING ALMOST DAILY NOW. MY BRAKES FEELS AS IF THEIR SLIPPING WHEN I TRY TO DIRECTLY STOP OR TURN LEFT. IT SCARES ME BECAUSE MY BRAKES SYSTEM SEEMS TO FEEL LIKE THEIR LOCKED OR AS IF I'M SLIDING ON ICE AND CANNOT STOP. THIS IS WHEN THE ABS LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT WILL APPEAR LIT AT THE SAME TIME

METAL BRAKE LINES RUSTED AND CORRODED. LINES PLACED IN AN AREA OF THE VEHICLE WHERE THEY WILL RUST AND CORRODE THEN CAUSING THEM TO BURST AT VERY UN-OPPORTUNE MOMENTS. CAUSING WRECKAGE. MY VEHICLE LOST ITS BRAKES ON A HIGHWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME CAME TO A STOP TO TURN OFF THE HIGHWAY, WAITING FOR ANOTHER VEHICLE TO CLEAR. I STARTED BRAKING AND LOST MY BRAKES, SO I TOOK THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I GOT MYSELF HOME AND LOOKED UNDER THE VEHICLE

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS STOP WORKING WHEN IN USE.

ANTI LOCK BRAKES ARE JERKING AND MAKE A NOISE AT SLOW SPEEDS.

ABS LOW SPEED ACTIVATION. ANY TIME COMING TO A STOP OR SLOWING THE ABS WILL ACTIVATE AT LOW SPEEDS AROUND AND UNDER 10MPH. VERY UNSAFE AND DANGEROUS TO HAVE YOUR BRAKES LOCKING UP WHEN SIMPLY TRYING TO COME TO A STOP.

LIVE IN MINNEAPOLIS, AND JUST LOST THE BRAKES ON MY 2001 CHEV TAHOE LT THIS WEEK. HAD BEEN GOING DOWN I-494 AT 65 MPH MINUTES BEFORE THIS. FOUR BLOCKS FROM MY HOUSE DRIVING ON A MAIN ROAD, SNOWY AND ICY, MADE A LEFT HAND TURN TO MY SIDE STREET, AND THE CAR KEPT GOING STRAIGHT. HIT THE BRAKES, THE ABS ACTIVATED, AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. VIRTUALLY NO BRAKES, BUT I MANAGED TO COMPLETE THE TURN WITHOUT HITTING ANYTHING, AND LIMP IT HOME. IN THE GARAGE NOW GETTING FIXED, ESTIMATED $500 - $1,000. WITH SOME GOOGLING AND TALKING TO 4 GARAGES, IT SEEMS TO BE A PRETTY COMMON PROBLEM. AMAZING TO ME THAT GM HAS NOT BEEN FORCED INTO A RECALL OVER THIS. THIS COULD BE FATAL, IF IT HASN'T BEEN ALREADY.
