2011 Chevrolet Tahoe complaints

I HAVE A 2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE LT AND IT HAS TWO CRACKS ON THE DASH. ONE ABOVE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AND THE OTHER ABOVE THE ODOMETER. AS I SEARCH THE WEBSITE I AM SEEING MORE AND MORE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE, ESPECIALLY WITH THE GMC YUKON, CHEVROLET TAHOE, AVALANCHE AND SUBURBAN

CRACKED DASHBOARD ABOVE DRIVER INSTRUMENT PANEL ALSO BIG CRACK BY THE PASSENGER AIR BAG I'M AFRAID IF DEPLOYED MAY HAVE FLYING OBJECTS

I AM VERY CAREFUL AND TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY VEHICLES, BUT THIS ONE HAS A CRACK IN THE DASH THAT IS GETTING BIGGER AND BIGGER. FROM TALKING WITH A FEW PEOPLE THAT OWN THE SAME MODEL THEY HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. IT SEEMS TO BE A DEFECT FROM GM. I HAVE NOT HIT ANY MAJOR POT HOLES OR APPLIED ANY PRESSURE WHAT SO EVER TO THE DASH. NOW IT'S SO BAD THAT IT RATTLES WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE ESPECIALLY WITH GM NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR ERROR.

CRACKED DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FROM THE AIRBAG TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD AND ON THE DRIVERS SIDE STARTED AT THE SEAM AND IS CREEPING TOWARD THE STEERING WHEEL ABOVE THE SPEEDOMETER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED IN FOUR PLACES. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,403.

MY VEHICLE HAS A CRACKED DASH DIRECTLY ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND OVER TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. I HEARD A "POP" WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON HWY 41 IN KENNESAW, GA AND SPOTTED THE CRACK AFTER STOPPING TO INVESTIGATE.

A AIRBAG RECALL ISSUED MAY 27, 2016 AND RECORDS SHOW THERE IS STILL NOT A REMEDY FOR THIS RECALL

THE DASHBOARD HAS DEVELOPED A CRACK NEXT TO THE PASSENGER AIRBAG COVER. THIS IS A WIDESPREAD MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT FOR THIS TYPE OF GM VEHICLE. HOWEVER, GM REFUSES TO INSTATE A RECALL TO ADDRESS IT'S CUSTOMER'S CONCERNS. WITH THE PLASTIC OF THE DASHBOARD COMPROMISED, A DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG COULD SEND FRAGMENTS OF PLASTIC INTO THE CABIN.

MY DASH CRACKED OUT OF THE BLUE ONE DAY ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO. IT STARTED OUT AS TWO SMALL CRACKS ON EACH SIDE OF THE TOP CENTER VENT BY THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE THE 2011 CHEVY TAHOE LTZ VERSION WITH A SPEAKER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DASH. THE SPEAKER DOESN'T APPEAR TO HAVE ANY SUPPORT FOR THE WEIGHT OF THE SPEAKER AND THE DASH CRACKS HAVE NOW GROWN TOWARDS THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ALSO BY THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG. THE CRACKS ARE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE CENTER SPEAKER AND NOW THE SPEAKER JUST CONSTANTLY FLOPS UP AND DOWN WITH NORMAL DRIVING. THE FLOPPING SPEAKER WITH NO (SUPPORT) IS CAUSING THE CRACK TO GET WORSE AND WORSE. THE CRACKS ARE SPIDER WEBBING NOW AND GETTING MUCH LONGER EVERYDAY I DRIVE IT TO WORK. WHILE RESEARCHING WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS ISSUE I DISCOVERED THAT SEVERAL THOUSAND COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN MADE ABOUT MULTIPLE GM MODEL VEHICLES HAVING CRACKED DASH BOARDS BETWEEN THE YEARS OF 2007 AND 2014. THE DASH COVER OPTION BEING SUGGESTED TO HIDE THE CRACKS IS IN NO WAY A SAFE AND RELIABLE SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE BECAUSE IT INTERFERES WITH THE MANUFACTURERS AIRBAG SAFETY DESIGN AND AND SPECIFIED ASSURED CLEARANCE FOR DEPLOYMENT. THE COVERS DO NOT ADHERE TO THE RATED SPECIFICATION OF THE AIR BAG. ANYONE WHO HAS EVER WORKED IN A PLANT WHERE THE AIR BAGS ARE MANUFACTURED KNOWS HOW PRECISE AND SPECIFIC THESE STRICT GUIDELINES AND SPECIFICATIONS ARE HELD TO.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE JULY 2016. RECENTLY WENT TO AIRBAGRECALL.COM SITE AND IT SAID "NO REMEDY AVAILABLE". WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT? THANKS.

" TAKATA'S RECALL" MY DEALERSHIP KEEPS TELLING ME MY GM 2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE IS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL, BUT I'M REALLY SURE IT IS. THEY KEEP TELLING ME FOR YEARS NOW IT IS SAFE. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT MUCH. CAN YOU TELL ME THE STATUS OF THIS SITUATION. THANKS, (XXXX) PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

TAKATA RECALL- MY SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT RECENTLY CAME ON SHORTLY AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED OVER THE PAST TWO SUMMERS. THE FIRST TIME THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY PREFORMED A AIRBAG SCAN. I WAS TOLD NO CODES WERE PRESENT. THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS THEN RESET AND I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ISSUES UNTIL RECENTLY. I HAVE READ ABOUT THE KNOWN POTENTIALLY DEADLY ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEFLATORS. I LIVE IN HOUSTON TX WHERE THE SUMMERS HOT AND HUMID. I HAVE READ THAT THESE AREAS ARE AT GREATER RISK DUE TO ISSUES ARISING IN HOT AND HUMID CLIMATES. I PLAN ON BRINGING MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP SOON. I'M SURE I WILL BE TOLD THAT SINCE THE RECALL IS PENDING I WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING FOR THE REPAIRS. I'M A FATHER OF TWO... DOES TAKATA WANT FAMILIES TO ROLE THE DICE WITH LOVED ONES LIVES WHILE PAPERWORK IS FILED OR PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE??? HOW MANY LIVES HAVE TO BE LOST BEFORE THERE IS A SOLUTION TO THIS RECALL?

TAKATA RECALL, AIR BAG SERVICE LIGHT NOW ON. RECALL OPEN SINCE 2016, NEED TO KNOW WHY ITS TAKING SO LONG TO COMPLETE RECALL. WONDER IF MY AIR BAG SRVICE LIGHT ACTIVATION IS RELATED TO RECALL ISSUES AND IF SAFE TO DRIVE? GM DALERS OFFERING NO ASSITANCE IN MATTER, ONLY SUGGEST A $135 DIAGNOSTICE EVALUATION.

I OWN A 2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE. MY DASH BEGAN TO CRACK COMPLETELY FROM ONE END TO THE OTHER. I CALLED THE DEALER TODAY, GEORGE CHEVROLET IN BELLFLOWER CA, AND I SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER JOSE. OF COURSE MY TAHOE IS INCLUDED IN THE TAKATA RECALL AND NO PARTS FOR IT ARE AVAILABLE YET. I DID ASK HIM ABOUT THE RECALL AND THEN I EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM WITH MY DASH. IT IS SO BADLY CRACKED NOW IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE AIRBAGS ARE NOT SECURE AT ALL AS THE CRACKS HAVE MADE THE ENTIRE DASH LOOSE. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL AND I AM NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY SO NOTHING COULD BE DONE. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE TAHOE AND HAVE TAKEN EXCELLENT CARE OF THE VEHICLE SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN 2011. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE SO I HOPE SOMEONE WILL REVIEW AND CONSIDER A RECALL. THE CRACKING BEGAN AT ABOUT 22K MILES. I AM UNABLE TO SELECT THE BUTTON BELOW, BUT PLEASE CONTACT ME ASAP IF THERE IS A RECALL.

AFTER PURCHASING TAHOE FROM USED CAR DEALERSHIP LESS THAN A MONTH. A/C WAS ON DRIVING WHEN I HEARD A NOISE FROM THE DASH. TOOK PICTURES TO SHOW HUSBAND. DRIVING ON TY 40 GOING 40 MPH. CRACK IS A SAFETY ISSUE!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED AND AN ABNORMAL CLICKING NOISE WAS HEARD WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUTONATION CHEVROLET GULF FREEWAY (13800 GULF FWY, HOUSTON, (281) 305-8940) WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 122,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

STABILITRAK AND ABS LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING, THE DOOR LOCKS GO CRAZY, RADIO GOES IN AND OUT AND YOU LOSE THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. ENGINE ACTS LIKE IT WANTS TO DIE OUT. THE FIRST TIME I HAD IT TAKEN IN, THEY SAID IT WAS A SENSOR SO I PAID $600 TO HAVE IT FIXED. 6 MONTHS LATER IT STARTED DOING THE SAME THING SO THE SAME SENSOR WAS REPLACED AGAIN. ONE MONTH LATER MY TAHOE IS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING AND NOW THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S A SHORT. I DON'T THINK THEY KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON AND THEY ARE JUST TRYING DIFFERENT THINGS TO SEE IF IT WORKS, SO NOW I AM OUT OF POCKET OVER $1000 FOR THEM TO KEEP GUESSING WHAT GOING ON.

MULTIPLE LARGE CRACKS ON DASHBOARD. BETWEEN DRIVER SEAT AND PASSENGER SEAT, THE CRACKS CREATED A LOOSE, FLOPPY DASHBOARD.

THE DASHBOARD HAS A CRACK ALONG THE AIRBAG DOOR. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IF THE AIRBAG SHOULD DEPLORE THE CRACK IS COMPLETE ACROSS THE NARROW DASH. IN AN ACCIDENT THE AIR BAG MAY OR MAY NOT OPERATE PROPERLY CONSIDER THIS TO BE A HIGHLY UNSAFE CONDITION REQUIRING PROPER REPAIR. VEHICLE HAS ALWAYS BEEN KEPT IN GARAGE UNLESS TRAVELING THEREFORE FEEL THIS A FACTORY DEFECT THAT NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION

THE DASH IS CRACKING IN MULTIPLE PLACES ON DRIVER SIDE ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ALSO IS CRACKING AROUND THE AIRBAG ON PASSENGER SIDE AS WELL, I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AS WELL AS MY PASSENGERS IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT, OF PIECES FLYING FROM DASH IN CASE OF A FRONTAL COLLISION. GM NEEDS TO RECALL DUE TO PROBLEM

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY AFTER 30 MINUTES, THE VEHICLE WOULD HAVE POWER ISSUES CAUSING ERRATIC BEHAVIOR. EXAMPLE, WHILE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE AT ABOUT 70MPH THE ISSUES WOULD HAPPEN WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKES OR TURNING ON A BLINKER, THE VEHICLE'S DOOR LOOKS CYCLED SEVERAL TIMES, IT WOULD CREATE A STARTLING POP IMMEDIATELY THROUGH THE SPEAKERS, THE RADIO CUT OFF AND RESTARTED. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PULL OFF INTERSTATE, THE ENGINE THEN STARTED TO STUTTER LOOSING POWER. STABILITRACK AND ABS LIGHTS CAME ON. AFTER SAFELY PULLED OVER, CUT VEHICLE OFF. RESTARTED VEHICLE, NO ISSUES OR POWER PROBLEMS. PROBLEM WOULD THEN RANDOMLY HAPPEN. RANDOM NO POWER ISSUES - LIKE BATTERY WAS DISCONNECTED. TESTED BATTER - IT WAS OK. PROBLEM BECAME SPORADIC AND RANDOM. DTC SHOWED RANDOM ISSUES WITH ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL MODULE (C0710 -STEERING POSITION SENSOR), PARK ASSIST MODULE (U0073, B1325 - DEVICE POWER 1 CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION) AND PASSENGER PRESENCE SYSTEM (B1000- ECU MALFUNCTION) IDENTIFIED GROUNDS TO BE VERY BAD CONDITION AT BATTERY NEGATIVE TO ENGINE AND FRAME, AND DRIVER SIDE UNDER BODY GROUND AT THE FRAME.

I BOUGHT MY 2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO (USED, BUT IN GREAT CONDITION) - WITHIN A MONTH MY DASH HAD CRACKED. NOTHING THAT I DID AT ALL! MY NORMAL DRIVING EVERYDAY KEEPS ME WITH 20-30 MILES MAXIMUM, ON VERY WELL MADE ROADS (NOTHING EXTREME). I PAID TO GET IT FIXED (THE FIRST TIME) AND NOW 4 YEARS LATER AND IT HAS CRACKED AGAIN. AFTER THE FIRST TIME I PAID TO GET IT FIXED, THEY ACTUALLY DIDN'T INSTALL THE DASH CORRECTLY AND THEN SAID THAT IT WAS MY FAULT THAT IT WAS MESSED UP AND DEMANDED THAT I PAY FOR IT. I REFUSED AND SAID THAT I WAS DONE WITH IT. IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE IT'S RIGHT ABOVE MY AIRBAGS, AND LIKE I SAID, THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN 4 YEARS THAT MY DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED.

CRACKED DASH - THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN CRACKING HAPPENED INSIDE ON THE DASH. IT HAS CRACKED IN 4 PLACES: (2) ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AND (2) AT THE AIR BAG. WHEN DRIVING, I NOTICE THERE IS NO SUPPORT IN THE MIDDLE OF DASH, IT BOUNCES AND MAKES THE CRACKS WORSE. I CALLED MY LOCAL CHEVROLET TAHOE AND RESEARCHED ONLINE FOR SAME MAKE AND MODEL ABOUT RECALLS AND THERE HAS YET TO BE A RECALL FOR THE CRACKS IN THE DASH. THERE HAS CERTAINLY BEEN LOTS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE, BUT AGAIN NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN. CRACKING AT AIRBAG IS HAZARDOUS, ESPECIALLY IF I WERE TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. THIS SHOULD CERTAINLY BE A RECALL DUE TO THE CRACKS AT THE AIRBAG AND THAT IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKING

CRACKED DASHBOARD ABOVE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. BOUGHT THE VEHICLE USED ON 18 MAY 2018 AND DID NOT NOTICE THE CRACK UNTIL THE NEXT DAY. RESEARCH HAS INDICATED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT WITH MANY GM MODELS.

THE DASH IS BREAKING APART IN AT LEAST 4 PLACES. MY WIFE AND I FEAR THAT IF THE AIR BAGS ARE DEPLOYED, EITHER FROM ACCIDENT OR FAULT, THE SHRAPNEL WILL KILL US. I WILL POST PICTURES IF APPROACHED...TO LARGE FOR YOUR SPECIFICATION.

DASH AROUND AIRBAGS AND STEERING COLUMN IS CRACKED. NOTICED ONE ABOUT A YEAR AGO BUT IT HAS GROWN MUCH BIGGER AND NOW A BIGGER CRACK IS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE (NOTICED TODAY). CONCERNED IF IN ACCIDENT AND THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY THE CRACKED DASH WILL SPLINTER INTO FLYING PLASTIC SHARDS. ONLINE RESEARCH INDICATES THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH THIS GENERATION OF CHEVY TAHOE. HAVE OWNED VEHICLE SINCE PURCHASED NEW.

DASHBOARD CRACKING AND IT IS LOOKING UNSAFE IF AIRBAGS DEPLOY.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKED NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. I'VE SEEN A LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE. I WAS DRIVING DOWN A GRAVEL ROAD AND IT JUST CRACKED.

CONTACTED GM UPON PURCHASE OF USED VEHICLE IN JUNE 2016 TO CONFIRM AIRBAG RECALL. GM RESPONSE WAS THAT VEHICLE IS AFFECTED BUT REPLACEMENT PARTS UNAVAILABLE AND VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE. CONTACTED GM AGAIN IN JANUARY 2018 TO CHECK ON REPLACEMENT PARTS; PARTS REMAIN UNAVAILABLE.

2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE LTZ - THE DASH HAS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLE. INCLUDING NEAR BOTH AIRBAGS. IT NOT ONLY MAKES FOR AN EXTREMELY NOISY AND ANNOYING RIDE, IT ALSO POSES A SAFETY CONCERN IF THE AIR BAG DEPLOYS AND PARTS OF THE DASH ARE THROWN IN THE DIRECTION OF PASSENGERS INSIDE THE VEHICLE.

DASH BOARD HAD DEVELOPED CRACKS IN IT. IT IS VERY LOOSE AND RATTLES. CRACKS ARE OVER INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND BETWEEN THE WINDSHIELD AND THE AIR BAG.

MY 2011 CHEVY TAHOE LTZ DASHBOARD FRACTURED COMPLETELY THROUGH THE PLASTIC ADJACENT TO THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND PROGRESSIVELY RATTLED UNTIL IT SEPARATED. IT THEN CRACKED IN THE AREA IN FRONT OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND CONTINUES TO RATTLE AND THE CRACK IS GETTING LONGER. THE AREA OF THE DASH BETWEEN THESE 2 CRACKS RATTLES VIOLENTLY WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND I AM SEVERELY CONCERNED ABOUT SHARDS OF THE DASH BECOMING DETACHED IN A COLLISION AND INJURING ME OR AN OCCUPANT OF MY CAR. I AM ALSO CONCERNED THAT THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG WILL BE COMPROMISED AND MAY ITSELF CAUSE THE DASH TO SHATTER AND CREATE SHARP PROJECTILES IN A COLLISION. THIS OCCURRED ORGANICALLY OVER TIME AND WAS NOT CAUSED BY A SINGLE EVENT IN TIME. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF OTHER TRUCKS WITH SAME MODEL DASH AS MINE THAT ALL HAVE THE SAME CRACKS IN THE SAME AREAS. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS DEFECT THAT GM HAS REFUSED TO ADDRESS. I HAVE CONTACTED GM CORPORATE AND BEEN SENT TO THE LOCAL DEALER. I HAVE CONTACTED MULTIPLE LOCAL DEALERS THAT HAVE ALL STATED THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE THAT GM IS ADDRESSING EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE ALL SEEN DOZENS OF VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUES. MY VEHICLE IS OTHERWISE IN PERFECT CONDITION AND I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS DEFECT WILL COMPROMISE THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND HAS LOWERED THE VALUE SHOULD I CHOOSE TO SELL THE VEHICLE. I HOPE THAT THE NHTSA CAN ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT GM REFUSES TO AND FORCE THEM TO REPLACE THESE FAULTY DASH BOARDS.

TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL, OUR CAR IS ON THEIR LIST BUT THEY ARE NOT RELEASING THE MONEY TO REPLACE THE AIR BAG AT THIS TIME, DESPITE THE DANGER IT POSES MY FAMILY
