TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HAYES CHEVROLET BUICK GMC CADILLAC OF BALDWIN (3656 GA-365, ALTO, GA 30510, (706) 776-1144) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,300.

THIS VEHICLE HAS AN ENGINE MOUNTED VACUUM PUMP THAT HAS FAILED. WE HAVE HAD FAILURES ON SEVERAL OF OUR 2015 TAHOE POLICE VEHICLES. THIS VEHICLE HAS 58,000 MILES AND AROUND 2500 ENGINE HOURS. AFTER THIS FAILURE YOU LOOSE POWER ASSIST BRAKES WITHOUT WARNING. THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. THE NEW PUMPS HAVE BEEN REDESIGNED.

WHEN DRIVING ON A MAIN HIGHWAY IF A BUMP IS HIT CAR BOUNCES EXTREMELY TOO MUCH. REALLY ROUGH RIDE OR BOUNCES LIKE A BASKETBALL DOWN THE ROAD. HAD A MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND SAID THE STRUTS ARE LOCKED UP AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. HE SAID HE SEES A LOT OF THE CHEVROLET TAHOE'S COMING IN WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. HAVE NOT GOTTEN THEM REPLACED YET BUT IT IS CRAZY HOW BAD IT HAS GOTTEN RECENTLY.

THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK WITH EITHER THE KEY FOB OR THE UNLOCK BUTTON INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE CHILDREN ARE NOT ABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE ON THAT SIDE AND MUST EXIT ON THE STREET SIDE. THE CONCERN LIES IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY, THE PASSENGER IN THE BACK SEAT MAY NOT EXIT THE VEHICLE NOR MAY ANYONE ENTER FROM THAT DOOR AS IT IS LOCKED PERMANENTLY. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO GENERAL MOTORS FOR WHICH THEY TOLD ME THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE AND I WILL BE FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND REPAIRS INCLUDING ALL FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY. I AM AWARE OF A SIMILAR PROBLEM IN AN OLDER VEHICLE RECENTLY WHERE THE PASSENGER PERISHED IN A FIRE AS THE DOOR WAS INACCESSIBLE, ALSO A GM SUV. I WAS GIVEN A CASE NUMBER BUT WAS ADVISED MY CASE IS NOW CLOSED SINCE MY VEHICLE IS PASSED THE WARRANTY. CASE # 8-4228203687.

INADEQUATE BRAKING FOR THE VEHICLE. MY WIFE WAS TRAVELING DOWN A CITY STREET AND COULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE CAUSING HER TO PULL OVER FOR FEAR OF HER SAFETY. THE VEHICLE HAS 75000 MILES ON IT AND IS OUT OF THE 60,000 MILE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. MY WIFE ALL MOST WRECKED BECAUSE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS HARD AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO BECOME DIFFICULT TO STOP. CHEVY WOULD NOT PAY FOR DIAGNOSTIC FEE EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. VERY UNSAFE TO OPERATE. SHOULD BE A FULL BLOWN RECALL TO GO ALONG WITH THE TECHNICIAN SERVICE BULLETIN THAT WAS ISSUED REGARDING THE VACUUM PUMP BOOSTER AND MASTER CYLINDER AND OTHER BRAKING SYSTEM COMPONENTS. $1400 REPAIR ESTIMATE IF THE DEALERSHIP FOLLOWS THE TSB RECOMMENDATION ON REPAIR. CHEVY DOES NOT CARE ABOUT CUSTOMER SAFETY. UNACCEPTABLE!!!

THE AIR CONDITIONING CONDENSER NEEDS REPLACED ON A 3 YEAR OLD VEHICLE. IT WILL COST ME $1,000 AND THIS IS A KNOWN GM PROBLEM. I JUST HAD TO REPLACE THE STRUTS ON IT AND THAT WAS OVER $1,300.

POWER STEERING LOSS OCCURS WITH THE ERROR MESSAGE ON THE DIC "STEERING ASSIST IS REDUCED DRIVE WITH CARE", AND ADDITIONAL ERROR MESSAGE "SERVICE (STABILITRAK)".
