2011 Chevrolet Tahoe complaints

I CONTACTED A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP TO HAVE MY VEHICLE SERVICED AS IT RELATES TO THE RECALL FOR THE AIRBAGS. I WAS TOLD THAT THE REMEDY IS NOT AVAILABLE BECAUSE THERE ARE NO PARTS YET. IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN AND THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY, MY PASSENGERS AND I COULD BE IN VERY BAD SHAPE. THIS COMPLAINT IS ABOUT THE RECALL BEING ISSUED; NO WAY TO SERVICE OUR VEHICLES. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! I NEED TO HAVE MY VEHICLE SERVICED ASAP

DASHBOARD HAS 2 CRACKS. ONE BY THE PASSENGERS AIRBAG AND THE OTHER OVER THE DRIVERS INSTRUMENT PANEL. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN STORED IN A GARAGE. I WROTE A LETTER TO GM AND THE WILL NOT TAKE ANY ACTION OR HELP WITH REPLACEMENT.

FRONT DASH CRACKING AND SMALL PIECES ARE LOOSE AND COME LOOSE AND CAN HIT THE PASSENGER OR DRIVER IN THE EYE

CAME OUT TO MY PARKED VEHICLE ON THE CITY STREET AND NOTICED THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED UP. THERE ARE THREE CRACKS CAUSING AN EAR ACHING SQUEAKING. TWO OF THE CRACKS ARE OVER THE STAIRING WHEEL GOING TOWARD THE FRONT VENT AND THE OTHER CRACK IS ON THE DRIVER SIDE, LEFT HAND FRONT CORNER OF THE AIR BAG HATCH TOWARD THE FRONT VENT. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION YOU HAVE TO TURN THE VOLUME UP ON THE RADIO TO TUNE OUT THE EAR DRUM PIERCING SQUEAK. THE CRACKS CAME ON A HOT SUMMER DAY, I BELIEVE THAT MIGHT HAVE CONTRIBUTED......

DASHBOARD CRACKED NEXT TO THE CORNER OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG COVER. NOTICED WHEN I GOT IN TAHOE WHICH IS GARAGE KEPT IN THE NORTHEAST.

NOTHING HAS HAPPENED BUT I DON'T WANT TO GET TO THAT POINT. WHEN IS THIS TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL GOING TO BE RESOLVED? IT HAS BEEN OVER 3 YEARS SINCE IT WAS PUT OUT. I WOULD LIKE SOME ANSWERS. IF I WAIT FOR AN INCIDENT TO OCCUR, IT WILL BE TOO LATE. MY WIFE SITS AT THAT PASSENGER SEAT AND WE LIVE IN GEORGIA WHERE IT IS VERY HOT AND HUMID. ALL OF THESE CONDITIONS SUGGESTS A HIGH PROBABILITY THAT AN INCIDENT MAY OCCUR. PLEASE REACH AND ASSURE YOUR CUSTOMERS THAT A FIX IS IN THE WORKS AND NOT GHOST THE POPULATION THAT OWNS AND OPERATES THESE VEHICLES EVERYDAY. THANK YOU.

MY CAR IS ONE OF THE MANY VEHICLES THAT ARE BEING DRIVEN ON A DAILY BASIS RISKING THE LIFE OF MY FAMILY BECAUSE WHOEVER IS IN CHARGE OF THIS RECALL HAS NOT DONE ENOUGH TO FIX THE PROBLEM REGARDING THIS FLAWED AIRBAGS THAT MAKE US PLAY RUSSIAN ROULETTE WITH WITH OUR LIFE'S EVERYDAY THAT WE HAVE TO DRIVE OUR CARS TO GO TO WORK OR PICK UP OUR KIDS FROM SCHOOL. WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A REPAIR SINCE WE BOUGHT OUR CAR ON MAY 2017. BUYING AMERICAN DOES NOT SOUND LIKE A VIABLE OPTION ANYMORE. SO FAR WE HAVE DRIVEN THIS DEATH TRAP FOR ABOUT 26000 MILES. EVERY MORNING BOTH OF US AS DRIVERS PRAY THAT THAT DAY WON'T BE THE DAY THE AIR BAGS INFLATE IF WE GET IN A FENDER BENDER

DASH HAS TWO CRACKS RIGHT ABOVE THE DRIVER'S STEERING SECTION NEAR THE MIDDLE. IT SHAKES WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSES A TREMENDOUS DISTRACTION DUE TO THE WAY IT FLAPS. THIS IS ALSO REFLECTED IN THE WINDSHIELD DURING NORMAL DRIVING ON INTERSTATES AND NORMAL STATE ROADS. THE MOVEMENT IS MOST NOTICEABLE AT SPEEDS ABOVE 35 MPH. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE CHECKED OUT, TIRES ALIGNED AND BALANCED, IT DOES NOT HELP. THIS IS A DANGEREOUS DISTRACTION AND A DASH SHOULD NOT BE CRACKING THIS QUICKLY, THIS IS A WIDE PROBLEM ACROSS MANY GM TRUCKS AND SUVS.

'TAKATA RECALL' RECEIVED AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL(GM RECALL 49151) IN JULY 2016 SINCE THEN I CALL EVERY YEAR TO CHECK ON THE STATUS OF THE RECALL AND THEY ALWAYS TELL ME THERE IS NO NEED TO TAKE ACTION NOW. IT HAS BEEN OVER 3 YEARS NOW SINCE THIS DEFECT HAS NOT BEEN AVAILABLE TO REMEDY MY VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THAT THIS TIME FRAME HAS BEEN LONG ENOUGH TO MAKE MY VEHICLE SAFE AGAIN, SO MY QUESTION IS HOW MANY MORE YEARS DO I HAVE TO WAIT AND IS MY TRULY VEHICLE SAFE?

THE DASH IS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES FROM ONE SIDE TO THE OTHER. THE MAJOR CONCERN IS THE CRACKED AREA AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THERE'S NO DOUBT PIECES OF THE DASH WILL BECOME FLYING DEBRIS IF THE AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED. I CURRENTLY HAVE AN AFTERMARKET COVER ON THE DASH TO HOPEFULLY KEEP THAT FROM HAPPENING. ALSO, THE RATTLING OF THE DASH WILL ABSOLUTELY DRIVE YOU CRAZY ON ANY LENGTH OF DRIVE TIME. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH, THIS PROBLEM APPEARS TO AN EPIDEMIC FOR 07-13 MODELS AND CHEVROLET SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

DASH AROUND AIRBAG AND INSTRUMENT PANEL IS SEVERELY CRACKED. KNOWN MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT.

RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL FROM CHEVROLET IN JUNE 2016 CONCERNING DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATORS. THE RECALL STATED I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. IT IS NOW AUGUST 2019 AND NO ONE HAS CONTACTED ME ABOUT THE RECALL. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS.

TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT WHEN PULLING OUT IT WON'T GO AND STARTS JUMPING IN AND OUT OF GEAR AND THEN SHIFTS REALLY HARD AND GOES IT'S ALMOST CAUSED ME TO GET HIT BY ONCOMING CARS SEVERAL TIMES AND IT'S WORSE ON A HILL JUMPING IN AND OUT BUT DOES FINE RUNNING UP AND DOWN THE HIGHWAY

THE DASH HAS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES

DASHBOARD IS CRACKED OVER THE STEERING WHEEL COWL AND BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND CRACKED WITHIN A FEW YEARS OF PURCHASE (LIKE MAYBE 3 YEARS).

CRACKED DASH AND COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY IF AIR BAG IS DEPLOYED.

WE HAVE TRIED TO HAVE THE TAKATA AIRBAGS REPLACED BUT SO FAR NO LUCK, WE BOUGHT VEHICLE ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO, AND IT DOES NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT LIKE THAT. NO PEACE OF MIND. ALSO CALLED THE DEALER, WE GOT THE SAME ANSWER.

MY DASH SPLIT AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND ON THE DRIVERS SIDE ON THE 'HOOD' ABOVE THE GAUGES. IT'S RIDICULOUS HOW WIDE SPREAD OF A PROBLEM THIS IS ON THESE YEAR MODEL, YET CHEVROLET CHARGES $360 FOR THE REPLACEMENT PART.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT NIGHT. GO TO HIGH BEAMS AND MOTOR IMMEDIATELY BEGINS TO REV UP/DOWN, AND RUN ERRATIC. SWITCH BEAMS TO NORMAL POSITION=IT STOPS. WHEN DEPRESSING KEY FOB TO OPEN AND CLOSE DOORS, IT ONLY WORKS FREQUENTLY. BIZARRE ELECTRICAL ISSUE....

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE DASH IS CRACKED NEXT TO THE PASSAGE SIDE AIR BAG AND BY THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ON THE DRIVER SIDE. I AM CONCERNED IF THE AIR BAG DEPLOYS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE THE DASH WILL EXPLODED AND SEND SHRAPNEL AT THE PASSENGER.

DASHBOARD JUST CRACKED WHILE DRIVING CITY STREET

DASH BOARD CRACKING IN TWO PLACES- BY PASSENGER AIRBAG AND ON DRIVERS SIDE ABOVE ODOMETER. THE CRACKS ARE PROGRESSING TO LARGER CRACKS AND CAN BE OF SAFETY ISSUE.

DASH BOARD CRACKED BY PASSENGER AIR BAG POSSIBLY COMPROMISING SAFETY. FEARFUL THAT AIR BAG STABILITY HAS BEEN COMPROMISED.

DASH CRACKING: I OWN A 2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE LTZ. THE DASH HAS CRACKED TWICE ON THIS VEHICLE. THE 1ST TIME IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. THE 2ND TIME IT OCCURRED THE DASH CRACKED IN TWO PLACES. THIS COST ME MORE THAN $1000. ONCE IT CRACKED IT STARTED MAKING A RATTLING NOISE AS I WENT DOWN THE ROAD. AFTER REVIEWING ALL THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM, I FAIL TO UNDERSTAND WHY A RECALL WAS NOT ORDERED BY THE GOVERNMENT IN REGARD TO THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A PROBLEM REPORTED BY THOUSANDS OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE PURCHASED A CHEVROLET TAHOE OR SUBURBAN. THESE ARE NOT CHEAP VEHICLES TO PURCHASE BUT ARE OBVIOUSLY MADE WITH CHEAP, DEFECTIVE MATERIALS.

THERE ARE TWO CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD: ONE IS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FROM FRONT TO BACK STARTS UNDER THE WINDSHIELD AND EXTENDS TO THE TOP OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL; THE OTHER ON THE PASSENGER SIDE STARTS UNDER THE WINDSHIELD AND EXTENDS TO THE AIR BAG COVER. I'M CONCERNED THAT THESE CRACKS MAY COMPROMISE EITHER OR BOTH AIR BAGS SHOULD THEY BE DEPLOYED IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT.

RECENTLY PURCHASED A USED TAHOE FROM DEALERSHIP WITH WARRANTY.WHILE DRIVING IN SNOW MAKING A RIGHT TURN THE STABILITRAC LIGHT CAME ON, TRACTION CONTROL, AND ABS. THE VEHICLE FISHTALED, ENGINE LOST RESPONSE. THE ABS AND STABILITRAC WARNINGS CONTINUE FOR A SHORT TIME AND WENT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE SAFELY. SECOND INSTANCE IN THE RAIN, ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS TRAVELING IN THE FAST LANE, WANTED TO MOVE OVER FOR A FAST MOVING VEHICLE BEHIND ME. AS I WAS CHANGING LANES THE STABILITRAC LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN, THIS TIME PULSING THE A B S BREAKS. I HAD TO STEER HARDER TO THE RIGHT, TO GET OUT OF THE WAY. THE THROTTLE RESPONSE WAS LOW AS WELL. THE TAHOE IS CONSUMING HUGE AMOUNTS OF GAS. ABOUT 13MILES PER GALLON. DRAGS UP HILL. SEEMS LIKE IT HARD TO SHIFT INTO HIGHER GEARS. RETURN TO DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. DEALER CLEANED THROTTLE BODY, REPLACED MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR. RETURNED IT TO ME, I TOLD THE DEALER TO DRIVE IT,BEFORE I ACCEPTED IT BACK. THREE CODES POPPED UP. BACK TO CHEVY FOR DIAGNOSIS. YAW SENSOR NOT COMMUNICATING, ETC. I TOLD THE DEALER I FEEL THE VEHICLE ISN'T SAFE. I GAVE THEM A LIST OF CODES OFF MY CODE READER. IT DOESN'T SEEM THEY ARE TAKING IT INTO CONSIDERATION. WE HAVEN'T HAD THE VEHICLE A MONTH. THE DEALER IS PROVIDING A RENTAL. SEEMS LIKE A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE TAHOE AND OTHER CHEVY VEHICLES. THE DEALER ALSO TOLD ME I HAD TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM AND/OR HAVE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON FOR WARRENTY. THE STABILITRAC LIGHTS COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY AS WELL AS CHECK E

'SERVICE AIRBAG' MESSAGE APPEARED ON MY DASHBOARD SCREEN. POSSIBLY CONNECTED TO NUMEROUS CRACKS ON PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE. VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY 90K MILES. CRACKS APPEARED WHEN IT HAD APPROXIMATELY 40K MILES. DEALER SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED AT THAT TIME.

DASHBOARD CRACKS DUE TO POOR QUALITY MATERIAL AND POOR DESIGN. ONCE CRACKED, THE DASHBOARD PRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD. IF THE AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY, THE FORCE OF THE DEPLOYMENT AGAINST THE ALREADY CRACKED DASHBOARD COULD SEND SHARP FRAGMENTS OF THE DASHBOARD INTO PASSENGERS.

DASH BOARD HAS BEEN CRACKING...STARTED FROM THE CORNERS OF THE AIRBAG....NOW I HAVE CRACKS ALL OVER THE DASHBOARD.

2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE CRACKING DASHBOARD. CRACKS (3) APPEARED OVER THE COURSE OF 12 MONTHS (SPRING OF 2018 START). FIRST OCCURRED BY THE PASSENGER AIR BAG, SECOND OVER THE DRIVER SIDE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER (CENTER), THIRD CRACK RECENTLY OCCURRED LOWER LEFT OF DRIVER SIDE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN CRACKS OCCURRED (HIGHWAY AND CITY DRIVING). VEHICLE WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENTS OR ABUSE. THE CRACKING DASHBOARD MAY BE THE RESULT OF A POOR ENGINEERING AND/OR MATERIAL COMPOSITION DESIGN THAT DOES NOT ADEQUATELY SUPPORT/SECURE THE DASHBOARD AND SUBSTANDARD MATERIALS THAT ALLOWS FOR VIBRATION (CRACKING FAILURES). CRACKED DASHBOARD COMPONENTS MAY CAUSE INJURY AND IS CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE FOR DRIVER AND PASSENGERS.

I HAVE TWO CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD. ONE IS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE RIGHT NEAR THE AIRBAG AND ONE IN ONE THE DRIVERS SIDE. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINANTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IT PUZZLES ME WHY CHEVY WOULD NOT DO A RECALL. MY 2011 IS VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF SO IT IS NOT NEGLECT ON MY PART.

CRACKS IN THE DASH BOARD. ONE NEAR THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND THE OTHER AT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG.

DASH CRACKED , COULD SEND PIECES INTO FACE IN A CRASH .

THE UPPER DASHBOARD ON MY 2011 CHEVY TAHOE HAS NUMEROUS CRACKS AND IS LITERALLY FALLING APART. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT IT IS ALSO A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD, BECAUSE A CRACKED DASHBOARD, PARTICULARLY ONE THAT IS DAMAGED AROUND THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG, CAN YIELD FLYING PROJECTILES IN THE EVENT THAT AN ACCIDENT TRIGGERS THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. APPARENTLY THIS IS A WELL-KNOWN AND DOCUMENTED ISSUE BUT GM HAS YET TO ISSUE A RECALL OR OFFERED TO INVESTIGATE AT ALL ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS.

DASH IS CRACKED IN TOW SEPERATE AREAS. ONE ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL, AND ONE ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. THIS CAUSES A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN, IN THAT IF I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, FLYING DEBRIS COULD HARM MYSELF AND MY CHILDREN. THIS CRACKS HAPPENED FOR NO APPARENT REASON, OTHER THAN BEING CHEAPLY MADE AND INSTALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND NOT TOUCHED WHEN THESE CRACKS OCCURRED.

'TAKATA RECALL'

MY 2011 CHEVY TAHOE WAS IN MOTION ON A TOWN ROAD WHEN SEVERAL ALERTS CAME UP ON THE DASHBOARD INCLUDING SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE STABILINK AND REDUCED ENGINE POWER. THE LOCAL DEALER USED A SCAN TOOL AND FOUND DTC # P2135 - THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. GM HAS A SERVICE BULLETIN #11273A THAT AUTHORIZES FULL REPLACEMENT OF THE SENSOR AT NO COST TO THE CUSTOMER FOR AFFECTED VEHICLES. AFFECTED VEHICLES INCLUDE 2008 - 2011 CHEVY TAHOE'S. BUT GM SAYS MY VIN ON 2011 TAHOE IS NOT COVERED. THIS IS CLEARLY A MAJOR PART DEFECT FOR THAT SPANS MULTIPLE DECADES AND MULTIPLE GM VEHICLES THAT CAN RESULT IN THE VERY UNSAFE AND UNEXPECTED LOSS OR REDUCTION IN ENGINE POWER. CLEARLY THIS PART DEFECT IS AFFECTING MORE VEHICLES THAN JUST THOSE SELECTIVELY COVERED UNDER THE SERVICE BULLETIN. A CALL TO GM SERVICE RESULTED AS EXPECTED AND THEY WERE UNWILLING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE WITH THE TPS IS MORE PERVASIVE THAN THEY HAVE CLAIMED. THEY REFUSED TO COVER THE COST OF MY REPAIR DESPITE THE FACT THIS IS CLEARLY A DEFECTIVE PART.

CRACKED DASHBOARD. - SEVERELY CRACKED IN 3 LOCATIONS (OTHER SMALLER CRACKS). DASHBOARD UNSTABLE WHEN DRIVING, RATTLES, VIBRATES IN CRACKED LOCATIONS.

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES. THIS HAS OCCURRED OVER A PERIOD OF YEARS AND IS NOT A RESULT OF AN ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN STORED IN A GARAGE ITS ENTIRE LIFE.

DASHBOARD HAS TWO CRACKS. ONE IS ABOUT A INCH LONG AT THE LEFT FRONT CORNER OF PASSENGER'S AIRBAG. ANOTHER RIGHT BEHIND THE STEELING WHEEL ABOUT 4 INCHES LONG. THE DASHBOARD ARE VIBRATING WITH CLICKING NOISE.
