1995 CHEVROLET TAHOE Complaints

FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS INTERMITTENTLY WORK. SECOND TIME IN A WEEK WHERE THE LOW SPEED, HIGH SPEED, OR INTERMITTENT WIPERS WOULD NOT COME ON. *AK

WHILE DRIVING ON ROAD TRAVELING ABOUT 35 TO 45MPH CAME TO AN INTERSECTION, HAD THE RIGHT OF WAY WHEN ANOTHER VEHICLE TRAVELING WEST FAILED TO STOP AT A STOP SIGN, AND PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF CONSUMER' VEHICLE. CONSUMER HIT FRONT LEFT OF THE OTHER CAR. UPON IMPACT, NEITHER AIRBAG DEPLOYED. CONTACTED DEALER AND MANUFACTURER. WOULD SENT A REPRESENTATIVE TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. *AK

WHEN ENTERING VEHICLE AND LEANING BACK TO PUT THE SEAT BELT ON, SEAT BROKE OFF OF THE ANCHORS. BOLT THAT HOLDS THE SEAT TO TRACK GAVE WAY, CAUSING THE SEAT TO FALL BACK. DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED. *AK

WHILE ADJUSTING HIMSELF INSIDE OF VEHICLE DRIVER PUSHED HIS BACK AGAINST THE SEATBACK, AND IT COLLAPSED, SEAT SUPPORT BRACKET BROKE WITHOUT A PRIOR WARNING. *AK

RECENTLY LEARND THAT THIS HAS HAPPEND WITH OTHER TAHOES. NO SAFETY DEFECT LISTED IN SUMMARY. *AK

THIS VEHICLE IS KEPT IN METICULOUS CONDITION, ALWAYS GARAGED AND MAINTAINED REGULARLY. AFTER NUMEROUS NO-STARTS AND GENERAL POOR RUNNING CONDITION I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE BOTH FUEL INJECTORS, THE MAP SENSOR AS WELL AS HAVING A MAJOR TUNE-UP.

WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR FAILED PRIOR TO RECALL NOTICE (98V-150), HOWEVER OWNER DENIED REIMBURSEMENT DUE TO PROBLEM WITH PARTS INVOLVED. *MJS

WE HAVE COMPLAINED SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT NOT FEELING AS IF IT IS "LOCKED" IN POSITION AND WERE TOLD THAT IT IS NORMAL. IT FELT AS IF THE SEAT WERE "ROCKING" A BIT. NOW THE SEAT HAS BROKEN ALL THE WAY AND CAN "ROCK" AS IF YOU ARE IN A ROCKING CHAIR. THIS TOOK EFFECT ON THE FREEWAY. VERY DANGEROUS!!! .....IN CONNECTION WITH THE EGR VALVE I AM CURRENTLY IN NEED OF HAVING IT REPLACED FOR THE 3RD TIME. MY "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT HAS COME ON ALL THREE TIMES. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT RUN THE SAME SINCE THE FIRST EGR VALVE HAS BEEN REPLACED. TO MY UNDERSTANDING, IT IS NOT A PART THAT SHOULD WEAR OUT SO FREQUENTLY. NONE OF THE TIMES HAS THE EGR VALVE BEEN COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

2 BATTERIES HAVE LEAKED, BRAKES HAVE BECOME "SQUEAKY" SHORTLY THEREAFTER GOTH TIMES. I SAW AN ANNOUNCEMENT IN THE NY TIMES AND FELT I SHOULD GIVE YOU YHIS INFORMATION

ORIGINAL MFG'S BATTERY SIDE TERMINALS LEAKED WITH PRESSURE AND SPEWED ACID OUT AND DOWN ON OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, INCLUDING THE RT SIR DEPLOYMENT SENSOR, ELECTRICAL WIRING, BRAKE LINES, TRANSMISSION COOLING LINES, AND OTHER ITEMS, WITH RESULTANT CORROSION. DEALER REFUSED TO FIX, OWNER CLEANED UP BEST POSSIBLE.*AK
