2016 CHEVROLET TAHOE Complaints

WAS DRIVING TRUCK AT 70MPH ON HIGHWAY, WENT TO CHANGE LANES, WAS IN CRUISE CONTROL. LOST ALL POWER, THEN ALL WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND OFF. ENGINE CODE WHEN TAKEN IN TOO DEALERSHIP WAS P00700 AND U0100

I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MY TAHOE AND I NOTICED SOME OTHER VEHICLES HAVE THE SAME ISSUE BUT MINE DOESN'T HAVE THAT RECALL. I BEEN SEEING SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST ON MY DISPLAY, AND WITH THAT I HAVE PROBLEMS STOPPING MY VEHICLE AT A SLOW SPEED. IT USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN I'M BACKING UP OUT OF MY GARAGE, OR TRYING TO PARK AT A PARKING SPACE. I HAVE TO PRESS DOWN ON THE PEDAL HARD TO STOP, AT ONE TIME I HAD TO PUR IT IN NEUTRAL CAUSE I COULDN'T STOP. I'M AFRAID ONE OF THESE DAYS IT WON'T STOP AND I WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR DAMAGES CAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. LIKE I SAID I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUE HAVE RECALL, I RESEARCHED AND IT SEEMS THAT FROM 2015 TO 2017 THEY HAVE RECALLS. I WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS ISSUE FIXED.

BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES HARD TO STOP AT SLOWER SPEEDS. VACUUM BOOSTER IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. JUST STARTED THIS WEEK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHOOK WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V645000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE CONTACT STATED THAT ANTELOPE VALLEY CHEVROLET (LOCATED AT 1160 MOTOR LN, LANCASTER, CA 93534, (877) 385-0885) EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND FILED CLAIM NUMBER: [XXX]. THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT. *LN *JS 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).

VERY POOR COATING ON FRAME. COATING PEELS AND FLAKES OFF, EVEN ON A LIGHTLY USED VEHICLE. AFTER COATING PEELS OFF THE FRAME AND COMPONENTS BEGINS TO RUST.

JUST RECENTLY GOT MY BRAKES RE-PROGRAMMED AND IMMEDIATELY THEY CONTINUED NOT TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY. THE WARNING LIGHTS DON'T COME ON BUT THEY STILL DO NOT STOP IN TIME. IN A PARKING LOT I COULD NOT STOP AND HIT A SIGN IN FRONT OF THE PARKING SPACE. WILL CHEVROLET FIX THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY MY CAR. ALSO NOTED IN A DRIVE-THROUGH CANNOT GET STOPPED IN TIME WHEN TRYING TO FOLLOW CARS. AND IT BACKING DOWN A HILL AT SLOWER SPEEDS CAR WILL NOT STOP. BRAKES JUST SHAKE WHEN YOU TRY TO PUSH THEM. THINKING OF GETTING AN ATTORNEY BECAUSE I NEED SOMEONE TO FIX MY CAR NOW

ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS I HAVE LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME I WAS TURNING AND THOUGHT MAYBE I HIT A SLICK SPOT ON THE ROAD BUT THE SAME THING DID NOT HAPPEN TO OTHER CARS. THE SECOND TIME I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A SECONDARY ROAD AND OUT OF NOWHERE THE CAR STARTED SLIDING LIKE IT WAS ON ICE BUT THE BRAKES AND STEERING WERE NON FUNCTIONAL. I COULD TURN THE WHEEL AND PRESS THE BRAKES BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT THERE WERE ANY ISSUES WITH THE CAR, NO ALARMS OR MESSAGES CAME UP BEFORE, DURING, OR AFTER THE INCIDENTS. I WAS VERY LUCKY IN BOTH INSTANCES IN THAT THERE WERE NO ONCOMING CARS. THIS HAS BEEN EXTREMELY TERRIFYING AND I REFUSE TO DRIVE THE CAR ANYMORE. HEAVEN FORBID MY CHILDREN OR ANYONE ELSE HAD BEEN IN THE CAR.

SINCE I HAVE BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN 2016 I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT CONTINUOUS PROBLEMS WITH IT. 1.2016 TAHOE W/ 96,000 MILES BEGAN RIDING EXTREMELY ROUGH ANY SPEED. SO MUCH BOUNCE AND JARRING THAT THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE ON ANY ROUGH ROAD. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THE MAGNETIC RIDE CONTROL SHOCKS AND STRUTS FAILED AND ARE FULLY EXTENDED. COST TO REPAIR OVER $3,000 FOR 4 SHOCKS/STRUTS. 2. MY FUEL INJECTION IS HORRIBLE AND HAS CAUSED ME TO LOSE MPG ON MY MILEAGE. IT HESITATES ON ACCELERATION AND WHEN IT SET ON CRUISE - BASICALLY ALL THE TIME LIKE ITS CHUGGING CONSTANTLY. 3. MY BRAKES HAVE BEEN RECALLED AND THE PRESSURE IS NOT CONSISTENT ON THE,. ALL OF THIS BEFORE I EVEN HIT 100,000 MILES. I PAID $74K FOR THIS VEHICLE IN 2016 AND I HAVE HAD TO PUT LITERALLY ~$8K IN VEHICLE MAINTENANCE IN IT SINCE. VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED!!

I AM A POLICE FLEET MANAGER THAT HAS AN ALL CHEVY TAHOE FLEET. IN OCTOBER 2019, I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FOR CHEVY RECALL N192268490 AND EVERY VEHICLE IN THE FLEET WAS TAKEN IN FOR THE RECALL. THE RECALL WAS TO REPROGRAM THE BRAKES, SO BRAKING WOULD STILL BE POSSIBLE EVEN IF THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED. HOWEVER, THE RECALL DID NOT ADDRESS THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM, WHICH IS A FAULTY SECONDARY HYDRAULIC BRAKE ASSIST VACUUM PUMP. I WAS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE I HAD TWO TAHOES ALREADY HAVE A VACUUM BOOSTER FAILURE, WHICH RESULTED IN AN EXTREMELY HARD BRAKE PEDAL WHICH WOULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM ARISES DURING SLOW SPEED BRAKING, SUCH AS PARKING LOTS OR SLOW SPEED PATROL. LESS THAN A WEEK AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLES TO CHEVY FOR THE RECALL, AN OFFICER WAS MANEUVERING SLOWLY IN A PARKING LOT. THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED AN EXTREMELY HARD BRAKE PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP. THE OFFICER WAS ABLE TO TURN THE VEHICLE, BARELY AVOIDING A COLLISION. OBVIOUSLY, GM'S BAND-AID RECALL DOES NOT FIX OR EVEN OVERRIDE THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHERE THE SERVICE PROVIDERS AGREED THE RECALL WAS A PLACEBO AND THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE VACUUM BOOSTER. AS PER A RECENT LETTER FROM GM, THEY HAVE GIVEN AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE VACUUM PUMP, FOR FREE REPLACEMENT. SO, OBVIOUSLY THEY KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM. THE LIABILITY PLACED ON MUNICIPALITIES, WHO HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO USE THEIR FLEET VEHICLES WITH KNOWN BRAKING ISSUES, IS AN UNFAIR BURDEN AND RISK. GM NEEDS TO RECALL AND REPLACE THE VACUUM BOOSTERS! *JS

HELLO MY TAHOE WAS IN A CHEVROLET DEALER ON OCTOBER 25 BECAUSE OF A BRAKE RECALL, THE TRUCK WAS 'FIXED' THAT SAME DAY. THE ONLY THING IS THAT MY TRUCK WON'T START ANYMORE SINCE THEN. I HAD MY TRUCK PARKED IN A GARAGE SINCE THE DAY WE GOT HOME FROM THE DEALER AND TODAY 11/13/19 WHEN I GET TO TURN IT ON IT JUST WON'T START. ALSO MY HUSBAND HAD A CAR ACCIDENT DUE TO THE BRAKES NOT WORKING IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR BEFORE WE KNEW THE TRUCK WAS ON RECALL. HE WAS IN A CITY STREET AND HE TRIED TO BRAKE BECAUSE THE CAR IN FRONT OF HIS WAS MAKING A STOP THE BRAKES JUST DIDN'T WORK, HE TRIED TO AVOID THE CAR BY TURNING TO HIS LEFT BUT THE FRONT SIDE OUR TRUCK HIT THE BACK OF THE CAR. I HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION OF THE INSURANCE WHEN THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED. THANK YOU HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON.
