2007 Chevrolet Tahoe complaints

STABILITRACK LIGHT COMES ON AND TRUCK OPERATES BRAKES AND STEERING WITHOUT MY INPUT. ENGINE HAS LOSS OF POWER AND RUNS ROUGH.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. THE ENGINE, SPARK PLUGS, INTAKE MANIFOLD, AND SENSORS ARE ALL AFFECTED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE IN PARK, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THERE WERE MULTIPLE FRACTURES ACROSS THE DASHBOARD WHERE THE AIR BAGS WERE LOCATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DASHBOARD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

CRACKS APPEARED ON THE DASH AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND ABOVE THE DRIVER SIDE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.

I PURCHASED MY 2007 TAHOE TO BE THE LAST CAR I WOULD NEED TO BUY AS I AM NEAR RETIREMENT. I AM VERY WORRIED NOW THAT IT WILL NEED SOME MAJOR REPAIRS TO CORRECT THE OIL CONSUMPTION. CHEVROLET SHOULD COVER THESE REPAIRS AS IT IS OBVIOUS THERE IS A DESIGN PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE AND THOUSANDS OF USERS HAVE THIS PROBLEM. FOR THE ENORMOUS COST OF THE VEHICLE I EXPECTED BETTER. I SHOULD HAVE KEPT MY OLD 1998 TAHOE. IT PROBABLY WOULD STILL BE RUNNING AND WOULDNT NEED OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES.

THE POWER LIFT GATE FOR MY CAR IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. IT DOES ONE OF SEVERAL THINGS, WORKS CORRECTLY WHEN IT WANTS TO. DOESN'T OPEN AT ALL WHEN PROMPTED, OPENS HALF WAY THEN SHUTS ON ITS OWN, OPENS ALL THE WAY AND SHUTS ON ITS OWN, OR OPENS AT RANDOM TIMES WHEN AFTER JUST LOCKING AND SECURING THE CAR. ALSO WHEN OPEN AND PROMPTED TO CLOSE WITH THE BUTTON/S, IT WILL EITHER CLOSE, NOT CLOSE OR CLOSE HALF WAY AND RE OPEN. TODAY MY POWER LIFT GATE DECIDED TO OPEN SUDDENLY ON ITS OWN WHEN I LOCKED THE CAR AND STEPPED ABOUT 2 FEET AWAY, IN JUST THAT MOMENT A PASSING CAR IN THE PARKING LOT WAS COMING BY AND HAD TO SUDDENLY STOP TO AVOID HITTING MY NOW RAISING POWER LIFT GATE. NEED LESS TO SAY HE WAS INCHES FROM HITTING THE CORNER OF THE GATE WITH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD OF HIS CAR.

1. LIFT GATE FAILED AND HURT MY ARM ON OR ABOUT JAN 1 2014. I NEED REPAIRED ASAP! 2. DASHBOARD CRACKED ABOVE STEERING COLUMN AND CRACKED BY AIR BAG PASSENGER SIDE. I NEED REPAIRED ASAP. GM REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THOUSANDS OF CONSUMERS HAVING THE SAME EFFECTS TO THEIR DASHBOARD. 3. TIMING CHAIN WENT OFF TIME AND BENT A CYLINDER WHICH CAUSED SERIOUS DAMAGE 9/2014 COST OF DAMAGES AT APPROXIMATE 4500.00 GM REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE DEFICIENCIES. I PAID OUT OF POCKET THE 4500.00 WITH NO ASSISTANCE. I ALSO PAID 250.00 FOR ESTIMATES AT THE GM DEALER IN KINGSTON MASS. THEY REFUSED TO HELP AND GIVE ASSISTANCE ON ANY OF THESE 3 MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEMS AFTER SUBMITTING THE DEALER BONA FIDE REPORT.

EVERY THING ELECTRICAL GOES CRAZY EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE,CHECK ENGINE,SERVICE TRA, AIR CONDITIONING, SEATS,BRAND NEW BATTERY DRAINS AND MORE

THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG HAS A BIG CRACK IN THE DASH RIGHT ABOVE THE AIR BAG. THIS CONCERNS ME AS I HAVE 4 CHILDREN AND AM SCARED THAT THIS MAY DEPLOY WHILE ONE OF THEM IS IN THE FRONT SEAT. I SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE. I ALSO HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE ASB LIGHT AND STABILITRAK LIGHTS WHERE THEY ARE BOTH ON IN THE DRIVER DISPLAY DASH. EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE THEY WILL RESET, BUT THEN IN A DAY OR SO THESE ERROR MESSAGES COME BACK ON. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE AS WELL. PLEASE GM DO A RECALL ON THESE ISSUES!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A PROGRESSIVE POWER STEERING FAILURE THAT OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE SUSPENSION WAS ALSO UNSTABLE IN THE REAR ASSOCIATED WITH THE REAR WHEELS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE 4-WHEEL DRIVER MODULE, WHICH DID NOT REMEDY THE FAILURE. WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED WITHOUT WARNING AND THE WHEELS IN THE REAR LOCKED. THE CONTACT APPLIED FORCE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE, BUT THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE REAR WHEELS LOCKED. THE VEHICLE VEERED TO THE LEFT AND CRASHED INTO A 1996 GMC SIERRA 3500. THE FRONT AIR BAGS AND SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WITH FORCE. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED MAJOR INJURIES TO THE RIGHT ARM AND THE LEFT LEG AS WELL AS EXTENSIVE ABRASIONS. THE DRIVER HAD TO RECEIVE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A WRECKING YARD AND THEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED BY THE INSURANCE ADJUSTOR TO DETERMINE THE EXTENT OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

THERE HAVE BEEN REPEATED OCCURRENCES - BOTH UPON STARTING VEHICLE AND WHEN DRIVING - WHERE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON, FOLLOWED BY "SERVICE STABILITRAK" "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" AND "ENGINE POWER REDUCED", ACCOMPANIED BY VERY ROUGH ENGINE NOISE AND THE INABILITY TO GO ABOVE 45 MPH. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN IT HAPPENS ON A FREEWAY. AFTER VEHICLES SITS FOR AN HOUR OR SO, NORMAL ENGINE FUNCTION IS RESTORED. DEALER HAS REPLACED ACCELERATOR PEDAL A FEW TIMES, BUT HAS NO EXPLANATION FOR PROBLEM.

ALL OF SUDDEN MY DASH ON PASSAGER SIDE, OVER AIR BAG SHOW A CRACK, AND AS THE TIME WENT BY IS CRACKING EVEN MORE . I JUST WENT TO CHEVROLET YESTERDAY,TO SEE WHAT COULD BE DONE , AND THE FIRST THING I HEARD WAS THAT WAS VERY COMMOM ,BUT SINCE I'M OUT OF WARRANTY, THAT SHOULD COST AROUND $ 1300 TO BE REPLACED. SINCE IS COMMON ,AND I WAS LOOKING ON LINE , THEY SHOULD REPLACE AT THEIR COST NOT OURS.

CHROME PLATING ON INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES ARE PEELING LEAVING SHARP AND JAGGED EDGES CAUSING CUTS ON HAND AND FINGERS. ALSO, INTERIOR DOOR PANELS' RETAINING CLIPS ARE POPPING OUT CAUSING PANELS TO SEPARATE FROM THE DOOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT NOTICED MULTIPLE CRACKS ALL OVER THE DASHBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED A BURNING ODOR FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID FUNCTION FAILED AND THE RADIO CONTINUED TO FUNCTION AFTER THE CONTACT SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, BUT THE FAILURES RECURRED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE BATTERY WARNING LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V240000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

MY TIRE MONITORING SYSTEM WENT OUT AND NOW MY KEYLESS ENTRY REMOTE DOES NOT WORK. THIS SAME THING HAS HAPPENED TO MY DAUGHTER'S AND HER HUSBAND'S VEHICLE THAT HE DRIVES FOR WORK AND THEY ARE ALL 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOES. THIS IS QUITE AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR AND I FEEL THAT 3 PEOPLE THAT OWN THE SAME MAKE MODEL AND YEAR THAT SOMETHING MUST BE FAULTY.

A POP WAS HEARD UNDER THE ENGINE AREA AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAT THE CAR BEGAN TO IDLE VERY ROUGH. IT WOULD NOT RUN PROPERLY AND HAD TO PULL OFF THE STREET INTO A GAS STATION. INSIDE THE CAR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE STABILITRAK SERVICE SOON LIGHT WERE ON. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES WE TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN, WE DECIDED TO MOVE AGAIN AND THE IDLING WAS WORSE. THE STABILITRAK AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WERE FLASHING ON AND OFF. WE BEGAN TO MOVE BUT THE CAR WAS IDLING VERY BAD AND SHIFTING VERY HARD AFTER A FEW FEET OF MOVEMENT. WE DROVE THE CAR TO THE NEAREST FIRESTONE DEALER TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. FIRESTONE CALLED TO NOTIFY US THAT THE CYLINDER #1 WAS EITHER STUCK/FROZE AND THAT WE WOULD NEED TO OPEN THE CYLINDERCOVER TO SEE EXACTLY WHAT WAS WRONG. THE NEXT DAY FIRESTONE NOTIFIED US THAT THE CYLINDER ROD WAS BROKEN AND THAT WE NEEDED TO DO A CYLINDER REPLACEMENT ON THE CAR. THE CAR ONLY HAD 88K MILES AND WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS, THIS IS TOO EARLY TO HAVE THESE PROBLEMS ON A CAR WITH LESS THAN 100K MILES. I FOUND SOME ARTICLES ON-LINE WHERE THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH GM AND THAT THE 20007-08, 5.3L V8 ENGINES, THE FIRST WITH THE FLEX FUEL SYSTEM, ARE STARTING TO FAIL AT THE 80K PLUS MILES RANGE. WE HAVE HAD OUR SERVICE PERFORMED AT OUR LOCAL CHEVY DEALER AND THE CAR HAS BEEN MAINTAINED WELL. IT IS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR THAT SHOULD NOT BE REQUIRED ON A CAR WITH LOW MILES AND GOOD MAINTENANCE RECORDS. FIRESTONE HAS FIXED THE CAR FOR $2,600.00 DOLLARS, AND CA

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS PUTTING BAGS INTO THE REAR HATCH, THE HATCH BEGAN TO LOWER AND STRUCK HER IN THE HEAD WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON ONE OTHER OCCASION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT OBSERVED THE PLASTIC RING AROUND THE IGNITION SWITCH DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS FRACTURED ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THE HORN FAILED. THE FAILURE RECURRED CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 115,000.

ALL SIDE AIRBAGS CURTAINS DEPLOYED FOR NO APPARENT REASON.THE DASH BOARD HAS A LONG CRACK NEARLY THE ENTIRE LENGTH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD EXHIBITED EXCESSIVE CRACKS AND SOME AREAS COLLAPSED. THE PASSENGER SIDE TOP SURFACE CRACKS EXTENDED TO THE AIR BAG HOUSING. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

I WANT TO ADD TO THE KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE CRACKED DASHBOARDS ON THIS SERIES OF GM TRUCKS. I HAVE A CRACK JUST ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THE SECOND CRACK IS ABOVE THE GAUGE PANEL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. MY CONCERN IS THE CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I FEAR THAT IF IN A CRASH, THE PLASTIC ON THE DASH WILL FRAGMENT AND SEND SHARP PIECES FLYING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

HEAVY GASOLINE FUMES AFTER VEHICLE DRIVEN A SHORT DISTANCE. FUMES APPARENT AT STOPS, SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING AND PARKED. NO TRACE OF FUMES OR INCIPIENT LEAKAGE UNDERHOOD, HOWEVER THERE IS WEEPAGE ON THE UPPER-INBOARD AREA OF THE TANK ITSELF. A VERY DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DASH CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES. THIS IS A VERY COMMON DEFECT IN GM SILVERADOS, TAHOES, SUBURBANS, YUKONS AND AVALANCHES. AT THIS POINT THE MAIN CONCERN IS THE FACT THAT THE HIGH MAJORITY OF CRACKS ON ALL AFFECTED DASHES ARE AGAINST/NEXT TO PASSANGER AIR BAG. IF DEPLOYED DASH FRAGMENTS WILL BECOME PROJECTILES. AS TIMES GOES ON SEVERAL OTHER CRACKS HAVE APPEARED AND AT THIS TIME GM HAS REFUSED TO ADDRESS

EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE HAVE BROKEN ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS 2010, 2011, 2013, 2015. REPLACEMENT DOOR HANDLE ALSO BROKE.

DASH CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND NUMEROUS OTHER PLACES. PLASTIC PIECES CRACKING AND FALLING OFF WHERE IT USED TO BE ATTACHED.

OIL CONSUMPTION OF AT LEAST A QUART BETWEEN OIL CHANGES, MISFIRING AT IDLE CAUSING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, STABILITY TRACK CONTROL SERVICE LIGHT. CHEVROLET TELLS ME THERE IS NOT EVEN 1 SERVICE BULLETIN OR RECALL NOTICE ON MY TAHOE. *TR

STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION AND MY SUNROOF UNEXPLAINABLE EXPLODED. THERE WERE NO MISSILES,OBJECTS OR DEBRIS THAT CAUSED THE SUNROOF TO SHATTER. IT WAS EXTREMELY LOUD AND THE SUNROOF SHATTERED AND HELD TOGETHER BY THE FILM. *TR

SINCE NOVEMBER 11, 2014, THE STABILITY TRACK TURNS OFF WHILE DRIVING. I RECENTLY RELOCATED TO PHILADELPHIA, PA FROM AUSTIN, TEXAS. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL DEALERS AND HAVE BEEN TOLD IT'S A SENSOR (THAT ACCORDING ONE HONEST DEALER, DOESN'T EXIST). THE WORST MOMENT OF ALL WAS DURING A DRIVE INTO WORK AFTER MOVING TO PHILADELPHIA. IT WAS SNOWING MAYBE AN INCH OR TWO, THE STABILITY CONTROL TURNED OFF ON IT'S OWN. I WENT TO BREAK AND MY TRUCK PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND BOUNCED TO A STOP, NARROWLY AVOIDING A COUPLE STANDING ON THE SIDEWALK. I MANAGED TO GET TO THE OFFICE BY DRIVING 25 MILES PER HOUR FOR 10 MILES. I AGAIN CALLED SEVERAL DEALERS ONE WHO AGREED TO LOOK AT MY TRUCK AT NO COST. HE HAD MY TRUCK FOR THE DAY AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. WHAT I FOUND WAS MOST OF THE DEALERS ONLY DRIVE THE VEHICLE AROUND THE BLOCK, NEVER MORE THEN A COUPLE OF MINUTES. IT TAKES ABOUT 15 MINUTES AT SPEEDS AROUND 45 TO 65 MILES PER HOUR FOR THIS ISSUE TO SHOW. WHEN I ASKED THE DEALER TO DRIVE MY TRUCK IN THE SAME CONDITION THEY STATED THEY DON'T DO THAT. SO STILL NO REMEDY FOR THIS ISSUE. THIS MAKES NO SINCE THAT CHEVY HAS NOT PUT OUT ANY STATEMENTS OR EXPLAINED THIS ISSUE. THEY HAVE TO KNOW THIS IS A PROBLEM. I AM WONDERING IF THIS ISN'T ANOTHER "HIDE THE FINDINGS UNTIL WE GET CAUGHT" APPROACH. SOMEONE HAS TO KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THIS. I THINK ITS TIME FOR A FEW LAWSUITS OR CLASS ACTION SUIT. SEEMS THESE GUYS DON'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL YOU HIT THEM IN THEIR POCKETS. *TR

LIGHT COMES ON DASH STABILITY TRACK CONTROL THE ANTI LOCK BRAKE IS ON AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT IS ON AND ALSO ON DASH LIGHT SAYS TRACTION CONTROL OFF. *TR

I HAVE 3 ISSUES . LOW POWER WHICH READ A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE (BAD TORQUE CONVERTER).BAD OIL LOSS. WHICH EVERYONE SEEMS TO HAVE .WHICH THE WON'T FIX . TRANSMISSION SLIPPING WHICH EVERYONE IS HAVING AND IS NOT THE TRANSMISSION IT'S ELECTRICAL. I WAS TOLD TO SEND A COMPLAINT IN TO YOU GUYS. I HAVE READ ALOT ON THIS CAR AND THESE ARE VERY COMMON PROBLEMS WITH THE 07 TAHOE AND I HAVE ALL 3. *TR

DROVE CAR ACROSS TOWN (2 MILES @ 25 MPH); PARKED CAR FOR 15 SECONDS. CAR STARTED TO SMOKE IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT. GOT OUT, POPPED HOOD AND ENGINE ALREADY ON FIRE. CALLED 911, FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED WITHIN 10 MINUTES. CAR TOWED. CAR TOTALED BY INSURANCE COMPANY. GM CONTACTED, LOOKED AT PICTURES OF BURNT ENGINE WE EMAILED TO THEM, GM WILL NOT PHYSICALLY INSPECT VEHICLE, BUT TOLD US THE TAHOE WAS TOO BURNT UP TO DETERMINE CAUSE OF FIRE. *TR

MY DASH HAS CRACKED IN 2 SPOTS, IT IS OBVIOUS THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS THAT THE ONE CRACK THAT LEADS TO THE AIR BAG COVER...THAT COULD POTENTIALLY OPEN HITTING MY SON IN THE FACE CAUSING BODILY HARM. WHEN I SPOKE TO THE DEALERSHIP (BRYAN CHEVROLET) FOR REPLACEMENT...I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AND WOULD NOT BE COVERED BY MY WARRANTY. HOWEVER, IF I WANTED REPLACED IT WOULD BE EXPENSIVE ($1000.00). BOTTOM LINE, I GOT NOWHERE WITH THEM, NOW THAT ONE CRACK HAS GROWN TO TWO CRACKS...AND THE OTHER CRACK IS ON THE LEFT CORNER OF THE DASH ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. I FIND IT APPALLING THAT SO MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN LODGED ON VARIOUS WEBSITES AND STILL GM REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND MUCH LESS REPLACE ALL THESE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARDS. I AGREE THAT THERE SHOULD BE A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT FILED TO MAKE ALL AFFECTED PARTIES WHOLE IN A RETROACTIVE MANNER. THE GROSS AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS CLEARLY INDICATE THAT HIS NOT A FRIVOLOUS COMPLAINT AND GM SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. *TR

SO FAR, 3 OF THE 4 EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLES HAVE BROKEN FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THESE ARE CHEAPLY MADE PLASTIC, NOT DESIGNED TO HANDLE THE FORCE OF SIMPLY OPENING A DOOR. THIS CAR IS OTHERWISE IN GREAT CONDITION, HAS VERY LOW MILEAGE, AND IS USUALLY ONLY DRIVEN WITH ONE OCCUPANT. THE PASSENGER SIDE DOORS HAVE NOT BEEN OPENED VERY OFTEN FOR A CAR WITH MILEAGE IN THE LOW 40'S. THIS WOULD BE DANGEROUS TO SMALL CHILDREN OR PEOPLE WITH THIN FINGERS AS IT WOULD BE QUITE EASY TO GET A FINGER CAUGHT BETWEEN THE BROKEN DOOR HANDLE AND THE BODY OF THE CAR. THE HANDLES DO NOT LOOK BROKEN. THE ACT OF OPENING THE DOOR CAUSES THE HANDLE TO PULL AWAY FROM THE BODY OF THE DOOR. A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH REVEALS THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. A DEALER TOLD ME TODAY THAT THEY REPLACED 8 HANDLES FOR 1 CUSTOMER. THAT'S AT A PRICE BETWEEN $250 AND $300 PER HANDLE. I WAS GOING TO BEGIN LOOKING FOR A NEW CAR TODAY. IF THIS IS HOW CHEVROLET STANDS BEHIND IT'S VEHICLES, THEY WILL NOT BE INCLUDED IN MY SEARCH. *TR

I WAS DRIVING IN THE SNOW GOING 5MPH AND THE TIRES BEGAN TO SPIN. THE CAR WAS IN AUTOMATIC FOR 4 WHEEL DRIVE BUT DID NOT KICK INTO 4 WHEEL DRIVE SO I SLID OFF THE ROAD. I WAS OFF ROAD ON A SLIGHT INCLINE AND THE CAR WOULDNT GO INTO 4 WHEEL DRIVE. IT SAID SERVICE 4 WHEEL DRIVE AND THE KNOB WILL TURN BUT THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE WILL NOT ACTIVATE. NOTHING HAPPENED OTHER THAN THE CAR NOT GOING TO 4 WHEEL DRIVE WHEN THE KNOB HAS BEEN TURNED. *JS

DRIVER SIDE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE PULLED OFF AS I WAS OPENING THE CAR DOOR. *TR

THE COMPLETE FUEL SYSTEM ROTTED OUT FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE ALMOST CAUSING A FIRE. THE FUEL TANK, FUEL PUMP MODULE, LOCK RING, FUEL LINES ALL HAD TO BE REPLACED AND HAD TO DO A FUEL SPILL CLEAN UP. LUCKILY, I CAUGHT THE FUEL SPILL BEFORE THE CADILLAC CONVERTER WARMED UP. MY MECHANIC ADVISED ME TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH YOU BECAUSE THIS SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED AND FEELS GM SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL DUE TO A SAFETY REASONS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE TAHOE OUT OF NO WHERE THE WARNING LIGHT POPS ON SAYS NO TRACTION CONTROL AND THAT THE ENGINE IS DECREASING POWER AND THE CAR SHUTS OFF THE POWER STEERING TURNS OFF AND IT LEAVES MY WIFE IN SCAREY SITUATIONS IT IS A COMMON ISSUE AS I HAVE RESEARCHED MULTIPLE TAHOES SUBURBANS SILVERADOS OF SIMILAR YEAR HAVE THE SAME EXACT ISSUE...HOW IS THIS NOT RECALLED AND GMS RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX BEFORE PPL START LOSING THERE LIVES...THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS...I AM SELLING THIS TAHOE ASAP AND THIS WAS MY WIFES DREAM CAR..THANKS GM FOR STANDING BEHIND YOUR WORK AND TAKING CARE OR PROBLEMS YOU CREATED. *JS

THE ODOMETER ON THESE VEHICLES LAST JUST LONG ENOUGH TO GET OUT OF THE FACTORY WARRANTY AND THEN THEY GO OUT. MINE WENT OUT WITH APPROXIMATELY 110K MILES. WITH THIS PORTION OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER NOT LIT YOU CAN NOT SEE YOUR ODOMETER MILES NOR WHAT GEAR YOU ARE IN. BY READING ONLINE I FOUND THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF CASES JUST LIKE MINE. GM NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL ON THIS. IT IS NOT THE CONSUMERS FAULT THAT GM HAS FAULTY EQUIPMENT IN THESE VEHICLES. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION. *TR
