2009 CHEVROLET TAHOE Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE IDLE OR IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS A LOSS OF POWER STEERING ASSIST. THE CONTACT PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK, TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND THEN RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT CONTACTED COX CHEVROLET INCORPORATED (2900 CORTEZ RD W, BRADENTON, FL 34207; (941) 348-6417) WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURE WAS A COMMON ISSUE HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000.

CAR STALLS WHEN MAKING TURNS OR WHEN ITS AT A STOP LIGHT OR JUST IN TRAFFIC THAT ITS MOVING VERY SLOW.

ONE EVENING I DROVE TO THE STORE AND PLACED MY TRUCK ON PARK FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES WITHOUT SHUTTING THE VEHICLE OFF. ONCE I'M BACK IN AND GOING IN REVERSE I NOTICED THAT THE ASSISTED POWER STEERING WASN'T WORKING. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY TERMINALS AND WAITED BUT THE EPS NEVER CAME BACK ON. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOED TO MY NEARBY CHEVROLET DEALER WHOM LATER CONCLUDED THAT THE STEERING GEAR AND SOME COMPUTER MODULE NEEDED REPLACED. THEY BILLED ME FOR APPROXIMATELY $2900. NOW, HERE I AM EXACTLY ONE YEAR LATER WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! EXPIRED WARRANTY AND A HUGE BILL OF REPAIR. I HAVE THE DEALER RECEIPTS ON FILE.

DASHBOARD CRACKS ABOVE THE AIRBAG AREA AND ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT COWLING. THE CRACK HAS SLOWLY BEEN INCREASING AND NOW IT IS SO BAD THAT IT WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT POSSIBLY FROM OVER-TIGHTENING BOLTS. *TR

MY EMGINE HAD JUST A LITTLE OVER 100000 MILES ON IT AND I ALMOST GOT KILLED ON THE INTERSTATE. FIRST I SAW SMOKE COMING FROM BELOW AND IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS COMING FROM THE TRUCK NEXT TO MINE. THEN I FELT A STOPPING FEELING IN MY TAHOE. I MOVED QUICKLY TO THE SERVICE LANE AND GOT IT IMMEDIATELY TO MY MECHANIC. I HAVE RECORDS OF REGULAR SERVICES TO MY VEHICLE. I HAD TO REPLACE THE MOTOR $7239.49. I HAD MY ATTORNEY LOOK INTO IT AND MY YEAR PLUS A FEW OTHER YEARS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THE DEALER NEVER RECALLED IT.

I HAVE A DASH THAT IS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE AREAS. I THINK THERE MAY BE A FUTURE ISSUE AFFECTING THE AIR BAGS.

ON 7 OCCASIONS (AFTER 3 THEY RESET THE CODE, THEN A MONTH LATER I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN OF THEY HAD VEHICLE FOR 30 DAYS OF WHICH PUT IN 3 PARTS. AFTER 800 AT DEALERSHIP THEY CANCELLED REMAINING WARRANTY WITH AGREEMENT FOR ME TO AFFORD PAYMENT TO FIX EXCEPT IT KEPT HAPPENING. WHILE DRIVING 2009 TAHOE DRIVING APPROACHED CORNER AND BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED. WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A STOP. SHUT OFF VEHICLE AND RESTARTED VEHICLE AND IT STARTED TO WORK FINE. IT WILL NOT FIX WHILE DRIVING AND IT IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD. VEHICLE ACCELERATION HAS DELAY OR LACK OF POWER WHEN ACCELERATING. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO BRAKE, VEHICLE CONTINUES TO INCREASE MOMENTUM FOR BRIEF MOMENTS. I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE BACK FOR 2 MONTHS AND PROBLEM WITH BRAKE FAILURE AND ACCELERATION HESITATION/IN FLUCTUATIONS HAS HAPPENED AND CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. BY PHONE AGREEMENT TALKING WITH DEALERSHIP WHERE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, WAS GOING TO RETURN VEHICLE TODAY BUT THE OWNER BILL NETTLETON REFUSED. I NEED THIS VEHICLE SAFE SO I CAN DRIVE IT OR SELL IT.

KEEPS LOOSING POWER AND STAKING WHILE DRIVING THE BRAKES CALIPERS ARE MALFUNCTIONING THE FUEL CONTROL MODULE IS BEING EFFECTIVE SEE THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL ON THIS BUT MY VEHICLE IS LISTED DMFOR MAKE AND MODEL BUT NOT VIN BUT IT'S EFFECTIVE

I HAVE 2 LARGE CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD OF MY 2009 CHEVY TAHOE LTZ. I HAVE ALWAYS KEPT A SUNSHIELD IN THE WINDOW TO REDUCE INTERIOR HEAT AND DAMAGE TO DASH. BUT, THIS DIDN'T WORK. THE DAMAGE HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN FRONT OF MY HOME. I BELIEVE THAT THE PROBLEM COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THE MANUFACTURER HAD USED A THICKER MATERIAL (PLASTIC) FOR THE DASH. I LOVE THE VEHICLE. BUT, HATE TO LOOK AT THE CRACKS EVERY TIME I GET IN. I INQUIRED INTO REPLACEMENT OF THE DASH AND WAS GIVEN A ROUGH ESTIMATE OF $1500-1800.

I HAVE A PROBLEM WHERE THE DASH CRACKS RIGHT NEXT TO THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WHICH SPLITS THE DASH AND MAKES IT WEAKER.
