SUPPORT BRACKET WELD TO TRANSMISSION DIPSTICK TUBE BROKE. DIPSTICK TUBE LOOSE AND ONLY HELD IN PLACE AT TRANSMISSION. CAUGHT AT A GM LUBE LOCATION IN CHARLESTON, WV DURING ROUTINE LUBE AND OIL CHANGE. THEY STATED THEY HAVE SEEN AT LEAST 6 OF THESE BREAKS IN LATE MODEL GM SUVS. IN WORST CASE TUBE COULD POP OUT OF TRANSMISSION AND LEAKING TRANSMISSION OIL COULD HIT EXHAUST AND CAUSE A FIRE. MY FIX IS A SMALL HOSE CLAMP AROUND THE BRACKET AND TUBE TO HOLD IT IN PLACE. *TR

ON TUESDAY, AUGUST 9, 2011, AS I MOVED OVER TO PASS A CAR ON THE LEFT ON A 2-LANE HIGHWAY, THE ACCELERATOR IN MY 2010 CHEVROLET TAHOE BEGAN ACCELERATING AT A VERY FAST RATE ON ITS OWN AND "STUCK" . I HIT THE BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES, BUT IT DID NOT "UNSTICK" AND KEPT ACCELERATING. I AM NOT CERTAIN TO WHAT EXACT SPEED THE CAR REACHED DURING THIS TIME, BUT I BELIEVE IT WAS IN EXCESS OF 80 MPH. SHIFTING THE CAR TO NEUTRAL BACKED IT OFF. AFTER PUTTING IT BACK IN DRIVE AND PUNCHING THE ACCELERATOR 3-4 TIMES WITH MY FOOT, THE CAR "UNSTUCK" AND SPEED REDUCED; NOT CERTAIN IF MY ACTION "UNSTUCK" IT BUT AT THIS POINT THE SPEED REDUCED. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I WAS EXTREMELY SCARED AND IT WAS AN EXTREMELY UNSAFE SITUATION. VAN HORN CHEVROLET IN PLYMOUTH, WISCONSIN, CONFIRMED A DAY LATER THAT DIAGNOSTICS SHOWED A FAULT CODE AND THE SENSOR WAS FAULTY, AND THE SENSOR WAS SUBSEQUENTLY REPLACED. THE REPAIR INVOICE STATES "REPLACED ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR."

WE PURCHASED A NEW 2010 CHEVY TAHOE WITH A TRAILER PACKAGE. WHEN WE PLUGGED THE TRAILER PLUG IN, WE FOUND THAT THE NO ELECTRICITY WAS TRANSMITTED TO THE TRAILER LIGHTS AND BRAKES. WHEN WE BROUGHT TO VEHICLE TO A CHEVY DEALER, THEY INFORMED US THAT THE WIRES WERE NOT CONNECTED AT THE FUSE BOX. WE BELIEVE THIS IS SAFETY PROBLEM AND A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. EVEN WORSE THE DEALER CLAIMED THAT THIS SAFETY DEFECT WAS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY BECAUSE WE DID NOT ASK FOR THE WIRES TO BE CONNECTED TO THE FUSE BOX WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR. WE WERE SHOCKED AT THIS CONVOLUTED ARGUMENT. THE MANUAL INDICATED THAT WE JUST AND TO PLUG THE TRAILER WIRES INTO THE TAHOE PLUG. WE ARE CONCERNED THAT THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT COULD LEAD TO SAFETY PROBLEM IF SOMEONE JUST PLUGGED THEIR TRAILER WIRES IN AND LATER FOUND THEMSELVES WITHOUT TRAILER LIGHTS OR BRAKES. *TR
