2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE Complaints

FIRST OFF, MY DOME LIGHTS. THEY FLICKER ON AND OFF EVERY TIME I HIT MY BREAKS OR EVERY TIME I TURN MY LEFT BLINKER ON. SECONDLY, MY AIR CONDITIONER! I LIVE IN A VERY HOT AND HUMID STATE. I HAVE ALREADY FIXED THE A/C IN MY TAHOE ONCE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SUMMER. NOW I AM HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS I WAS THEN.

SUSPENSION BOUNCES SO BADLY THAT THE VEHICLE BECOMES UNSTABLE AND DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. FAILURE HAPPENED AROUND 75,000 MILES WHILE TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE AND IS A VERY COMMON FAILURE AMONG THE TAHOE, SUBURBAN, AND YUKONS. GM HAS FAILED ITS CUSTOMERS BY NOT COVERING THE DEFECTIVE SUSPENSION UNDER THESE VEHICLES. THIS WILL BE THE LAST GM VEHICLE THAT I PURCHASE, I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT TROUBLE FROM THIS CAR.

VEHICLE HAS 65K ON IT. MOST RECENTLY THE FRONT END STARTED BOUNCING SEVERELY DURING NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS AND BOUNCES VIOLENTLY OVER ROUGH ROAD CONDITIONS. THE VEHICLE CAN BE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL, ESPECIALLY FOR MY WIFE, WHO IS SMALLER IN STATURE. I WAS ADVISED BY MY MECHANIC THAT THE FRONT SHOCKS/STRUTS ARE LEAKING. COST ESTIMATES ARE 1670 TO 1920. VEHICLE WILL BE FIXED ON 9/27/19 BECAUSE IT CANNOT BE DRIVEN OTHERWISE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V645000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE BRAKES GRABBED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS BEING DEPRESSED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOULEVARD BUICK (2800 CHERRY AVE, SIGNAL HILL, CA 90755, (562) 492-1000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND A WHEEL BALANCE WAS NEEDED. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS WORKING AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,917.

CONTACTS ON REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER/DEFROSTER SEPARATED. FIRST ON LEFT REAR (2017)THEN LATER ON LEFT REAR (2018).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE VACUUM PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. ELM CHEVROLET (LOCATED AT 301 E CHURCH ST, ELMIRA, NY 14901, (607) 734-4141) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN AND REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V645000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000. *AS *AS

VEHICLE DID NOT WANT TO START WHEN COLD. WOULD TAKE 2-3 TIMES TO GET ENGINE TO TURN OVER. AFTER DRIVING, THE SMELL OF GASOLINE WAS UNDENIABLE. BROUGHT VEHICLE IN TO LOCAL MECHANIC AND HE DISCOVERED THE FUEL HOSE HAD CHAFFED AND FUEL WAS SPRAYING OUT AND PUDDLING ON TOP OF FUEL TANK. HE DROPPED FUEL TANK AND REPLACED FUEL LINE. FUEL LINE THAT WAS REMOVED HAD NO PROTECTION ON IT. REPLACEMENT PART HAD A CORRUGATED LOOM PROTECTING FUEL LINE. I AM STILL IN POSSESSION OF DAMAGED FUEL LINE IN QUESTION.

POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING AND GM WON'T REPLACE UNDER OTHER POWER STEERING RECALLS HAD TO PAY 3K TO FIX, ALSO STEERING ASSIST OUT AS WELL AND WON'T FIX UNLESS PAID FOR.

SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST CAME ON AND VEHICLE IS VERY HARD TO STOP EVEN WHEN APPLYING ENORMOUS PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS ACCRUES AT LOWER SPEEDS AND IS VERY DANGEROUS TO THE CONSUMER.

BRAKES WERE FAULTY. THE CAR WAS NOT STOPPING AT SLOW SPEEDS. AFTER GOING BACK AND FORTH WITH DEALER AND SHOWING THEM THE 'DIAGNOSTIC TIP' OUT FOR THIS KNOWN ISSUE, THEY REPLACED VACUUM PUMP FREE OF CHARGE. I ASKED WHY THEY DIDN'T REPLACE THE OTHER ITEMS LISTED AS RECOMMENDED ON THE NOTICE. NOW 7 MONTHS LATER, THE OTHER PARTS ARE LEAKING AND NEED REPLACEMENT. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED AT SAME TIME.
