2018 TAHOE W/ 60,000 MILES BEGAN RIDING EXTREMELY ROUGH ANY SPEED. SO MUCH BOUNCE AND JARRING THAT THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE ON ANY ROUGH ROAD.

WHEN STATIONARY AND TURNING ON VEHICLE I HAD DIFFICULTY TURNING STEERING WHEEL. I RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION THAT POWER ASSIST WAS NOT ACTIVE. THIS HAPPENED ONCE BEFORE AND I TOOK TO DEALER. THEY CLAIMED IT WAS THE BATTERY AND REPLACED. I SEE THERE HAVE BEEN PRIOR RECALLS ON TAHOE FOR STEERING ASSIST ISSUES.

WE JUST HAD TO SPEND $1,000 TO HAVE THE RADIATOR REPLACED ON OUR 2018 CHEVROLET TAHOE BECAUSE IT WAS LEAKING WHICH ONLY HAS 32,050 MILES ON IT. THE TAHOE HAD A 3 YEAR 36,000 MILE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY, BUT WE WERE TWO (2) DAYS PAST THE 3 YEAR MARK SO THEY WOULD NOT COVER IT. THE TAHOE ALSO HAS A 5 YEAR 60,000 POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, BUT THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THE RADIATOR IS NOT CONSIDERED TO BE PART OF THE POWER TRAIN ONLY THE HOSES GOING FROM THE RADIATOR TO THE ENGINE WERE COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. IN JANUARY 2019 GM ISSUED SERVICE BULLETIN PI1513F (ATTACHED) FOR 2015-2016 TAHOES FOR THIS EXACT SAME LEAKING RADIATOR ISSUE WHICH STATES THAT THE RADIATOR REPLACEMENT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR 2017 & 2018 MODELS ALSO, BUT GM HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL, NOR WILL THEY COVER THE 2017-2018 MODEL UNDER THE 5 YEAR 60,000 MILE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY LIKE THEY DO WITH THE 2015-2016 MODELS.

PASSENGER WINDOW WHEN ROLLED UP IT ROLLS DOWN AUTOMATICALLY. BUTTON HAS TO BE HELD IN THE UPWARD POSITION FOR WINDOW TO STAY UP. HAS ALREADY BEEN SERVICED BY DEALERSHIP.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE IT CONSTANTLY REVVS UP UNCONTROLLABLY. ALMOST LIKE IT'S DOWN SHIFTING IN LOW GEAR WHEN MY FOOT IS OFF THE GAS PEDAL.

WHEN ACCELERATING IT SOUNDS LIKE MY VEHICLE IS STUCK IN BRAKE DEGRADING OR IS MAKING THAT DISTINGUISHING NOISE. MY VEHICLE IS IN THE SHOP FOR THE SECOND TIME TO FIX THE SAME ISSUE OF PARK ASSIST, SIDE DETECTION AND FRONT CAMERA SERVICE. WHEN EXPRESSING MY CONCERN FOR THIS PROBLEM OF THE SOUND THE DEALERSHIP SAID LET'S FIX THE SERVICE ISSUES FIRST AS EVERYTHING IS ELECTRONIC. I HOPE MY VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE.

THANK GOD MY WIFE OR SOMEONE WASN'T DRIVING AT THIS TIME : GOT IN THE VEHICLE, STARTED AND A SERVICE VEHICLE CAME ON.. IT SAID ' POWER STEERING DRIVE WITH CARE '. I COULD NOT EVEN TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. I GUESS A STEERING MODULE OR A SOFTWARE UPDATE IS NEEDED. CALLED LOCAL CHEVY DEALER AND THEY SAID CALL BACK MONDAY. BOUGHT TAHOE BRAND NEW IN 2018, ONLY HAS 22K MILES. I'M STUCK NOT DRIVING THE VEHICLE TILL MONDAY. *TR

STEERING ASSIST IS REDUCED DRIVE WITH CARE MESSAGE CAME UP ON THE DASH WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A 2 LANE STATE ROAD (HIGHWAY) AND THE CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING CAUSING VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN BELOW HIGHWAY SPEED LUCKILY THERE WAS NOT ANY VEHICLES BEHIND US. *TR

I PURCHASED A NEW 2018 CHEVROLET TAHOE WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR THE SUNROOF STARTED LEAKING. I HAD IT REPAIRED THE FIRST TIME IN AUGUST. SECOND TIME IT WAS REPAIRED WAS IN NOVEMBER. NINE DAYS LATER, IT LEAKED AGAIN. I TOOK IT BACK FOR THE THIRD REPAIR AND GOT IT BACK 6 WEEKS LATER. DECEMBER 21 I GOT IT BACK AND IT LEAKED AGAIN THE WORST EVER IN 48 HOURS. PLUS THEY DID DAMAGE TO THE INSIDE OF MY CAR. SOME OF THE DAMAGES WAS CAUSE BY TRYING TO GET THE OLD HEADLINER OUT AND THE NEW ONE PUT IN. WHEN IT RAINING AFTER THE THIRD TEMPT OF REPAIRING IT NOW WATER START DRIPPING WATER OUT OF THE SPEAKER ON TO MY DRIVERS SEAT AND DOWN MY STEERING WHEEL ON TO MY HAND. EVERYTIME IT RAINS THE INSIDE OF MY VEHICLE HEADLINER GETS WET. I AM WORRIED ABOUT MOLD AND MILDEW. MOISTURE BEING INSIDE THE CAR. PLUS THE SAFETY OF MY VEHICLE WITH IT HOLDING WATER IN THE HEADLINER.
