2021 CHEVROLET TAHOE Complaints

My wife was driving our vehicle and had (fortunately) just turned onto our quiet street. As she was heading towards our driveway, the car turned off. We couldn’t figure out the issue. After paying for a tow to Sterling Chevrolet in Mount Pleasant, SC, we learned that the fuel pump system had died. This was at 36,071 miles (71 miles over our warranty). We were then told that there had not been a safety recall on the fuel system for our 2021 Tahoe z71. It wasn’t until later that we learned there HAD been a recall and I’m not sure how to handle this. The recall occurred before we took possession of the vehicle (8 months before), thus we were never notified. Per the maintenance records, the fuel system had never been repaired nor was a part replaced on this vehicle. Thus, I believe our vehicle would roll up under this recall and we should be reimbursed for the repair expense.

The fuel pump power control module failed. We were driving on the interstate going around 75mph with traffic. The car suddenly lost power dropped to 60, 40, 20 in 5 seconds. We barley made if off the hwy`s left side when the Tahoe died. Would not start back up and locked in park. Had to be towed on a flat bed dragged up the bed and brought to the Chevy dealer who confirmed the fuel pump power control module failed and replaced under warranty. We have a 2021 Tahoe, there is a recall for this part but it did not include our vin. Really scary breakdown and could have been hit by another car.

I purchased a 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe SSV (Police Model) and have been hearing a high pitch squeal noise at low speeds while I’m breaking. The vehicle started making the noise since mile 50. I took my vehicle to the dealership on 03/14/2022 for this complaint (vehicle had 10,860 miles at that time). Parkway Chevrolet informed me that Chevrolet had authorized a one time replacement of the rotors and break pads as a courtesy but the noise would come back and there was nothing they could do to fix the problem. The service advisor at Parkway Chevrolet further advised me that the braking system on my vehicle was meant for stopping power and not luxury. The squeal noise started back before I was able to drive the vehicle back to my house. Within the last couple of weeks my vehicle started making a rubbing noise along with the high pitch squeal so I took the vehicle to Buckalew Chevrolet and they have informed me that the vehicle needs new break pads at 35,000 miles. While I was at the dealership they looked up the service history of my vehicle and informed me that Parkway Chevrolet only turned the front rotors on 3/14/22 and the braking system was never actually replaced. I was wondering if my vehicle could be considered as part of the recall that was issued under Bulletin # 22-NA-165 that was issued in May 2023. Thank you for your consideration.

The failed component was reported to be the Coolant Surge Tank. This component cracked and begin to leak engine coolant causing the vehicle to overheat and become undrivable. This failure also lead the inoperability of the heating system inside the cabin of the vehicle. The failure of this component is widespread knowledge in the Chevrolet Tahoe/Suburban and GMC Yukon ownership community. In some cases dealerships are purposely marking up the cost of replacement components due to the scarcity caused by this failure and production issue within GM. The only symptoms of this issue were overheating and inoperable cabin heater. No warning lights or messages were displayed.

alternator In 2021 Tahoe has went bad twice now! I’m on my third one. Obviously there is a issue for this needing to be replaced so often.

The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact stated that the front headlights were extremely dim while driving at night. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where the mechanic informed the contact that the headlight adjusters were defective and had caused the headlights to shift downwards. The contact was informed that the entire headlight module needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that there were no recalls on the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

The indicator light 'Service Safety Restraint System' beeps and comes on about every 5 minutes when driving. Sometimes it doesn't come on at all. There is no rhyme or reason for why it happens.

My truck is a2021 Chevy Tahoe Z71 and my motor knocking real loud I was told it’s a problem with the lifters My car is not old enough to habe lifter problems It started knocking a year ago I was told change the oil but I always change my oil on time now it’s way louder than a year ago

The truck had an airbag malfunction notice on the information center. We took the truck to the dealer and was told that it was an electrical problem with the airbags. That the only way to have it covered under warranty was for the vehicle to be under the bumper to bumper warranty. The truck at the time the mileage was 39844. We had the truck fixed since it was a safety issue. It cost $420+ to fix it. We feel that it should have been covered due to a safety issue.

The vehicle stalled without warning, while driving. After taking it to the dealership they said it’s the Fuel Pump Power Control Module. After further research I see this has been under recall, however, my vin doesn’t show a recall for this.
