2015 Chevrolet Tahoe Complaint Log

BRAKE VACUUM PUMP FAILED DURING LOW SPEED DRIVING CAUSING MY WIFE TO NEARLY COLLIDE WITH VEHICLE IN FRONT OF HER. SHE WAS FORCED TO EXIT THE ROADWAY AND GO INTO THE MEDIAN UNTIL VEHICLE COULD BE STOPPED.

I had noticed a slight smell of antifreeze/coolant occasionally when the vehicle had aroun42,000 miles. As a diesel engine technition I knew something was wrong.I found a slight leak in thr topleft corner of the radiator were the tubes go into the tank. Contacted GM and was told the radiator was not covered under the powertrain warranty. I would only have to add about a half a quart of coolant every service at 3,500 miles. Looking online I had seen bullitins on the 2014 chevy,gmc,and caddilac half ton trucks and suv's. Now at 77,000 miles its getting much worse and GM won't do anything about it. I have ordered a new Radiator and thermostat at an approximatley $300 dollars. I Know they have a bulletin PI1513A. But GM will not help. thank you.

BRAKE BOOSTER QUIT WORKING. ESPECIALLY ON INCLINES. WIFE COULD NOT STOP VECHICLE WITH CHILDREN INSIDE. VERY SCARY. DEALER CHARGED 600.00 TO FIX AND REQUIRED NEW SURGE TIME BELT AS WELL.

FAILURE OF A/C SYSTEM WITH LESS THAN 60,000 MI. I DIDN'T USE THE WARRANTY BECAUSE IT HAPPENED DURING WINTER. I THOUGHT IT JUST NEEDED A RECHARGE BUT IT STILL DOESN'T WORK. SEEMS LIKE A COMPRESSOR. PRETTY UNSAFE IN THE SUMMER AND I HAVE READ OF LOTS OF FAILURES AND REPAIRS WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE PARTS.

BRAKES SUDDENLY BECAME EXTREMELY HARD TO APPLY AT LOW SPEEDS. BRAKE PEDAL WAS STIFF AND WOULDN'T ENGAGE. I FIRST NOTICED IT WHILE PULLING IN A PARKING SPACE THEN REVERSING TO STRAIGHTEN THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKES WOULDN'T ENGAGE AND I HAD TO PRESS THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THIS FIRST OCCURANCE HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 5:00 PM ON NOVEMBER 11, 2018 IN ORLANDO, FL. AT THIS TIME, I NOTICED THE ISSUE BUT AFTER I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND RESTARTED, IT APPEARED TO BE RESOLVED. I CONTINUED MY EVENING AND DROVE SEVERAL PLACES AND EVENTUALLY DROVE BACK HOME TO TAMPA, FL WITHOUT ANY ISSUES. UPON REACHING MY DESTINATION AND ATTEMPTING TO PARALLEL PARK, THE BRAKES FAILED AGAIN. I TURNED OF THE CAR AND RESTARTED IT AND THE BRAKES DID NOT ENGAGE AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS STIFF. I DID NOT DRIVE IT AGAIN. I SUSPECTED AN ISSUE WITH THE VACUUM PUMP AND HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO DIMMITT CHEVROLET IN CLEARWATER, FL THE FOLLOWING MORNING. DIMMITT "VERIFIED CONCERN. PERFORMED DIAG. FOUND ENGINE VACUUM PUMP IS WEAK AND NOT PULLING ENOUGH VACUUM AT TIMES." DIMMITT "REMOVED AND REPLACED VACUUM PUMP."

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH OR LESS, THE VEHICLE REQUIRED EXCESSIVE EFFORT TO STOP. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS, WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KOONS CHEVROLET (LOCATED AT 10207 PHILADELPHIA RD, WHITE MARSH, MD 21162, (410) 931-8600) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

AS I WAS BACKING DOWN A HILL MY BREAKS WOULD BARELY FUNCTION. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO GET MY VEHICLE TO STOP AND TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP WHERE I WAS TOLD MY VACUUM PUMP NEEDED REPLACED. I UNDERSTAND THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER CONSUMERS SO I WANTED TO MAKE SURE MY ISSUE WAS DOCUMENTED AS WELL.

AT LOW SPEEDS BRAKES FAIL. WHEN YOU PRESS BRAKES THE CAR WILL NOT STOP. I HAVE TO PUT BOTH MY FEET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT SEVERELY CUT INTO THE CONTACT'S BODY. THE SEAT BELT BECAME SIGNIFICANTLY WORN TO THE POINT OF A POTENTIAL FRACTURE WITH THE SEAT BELT WEBBING. FURTHERMORE, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRIMMING ON THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES BECAME DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE'S EXTERIOR. THE TRIMMING CREATED A WHISTLING NOISE AND BLEW IN THE WIND WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE CONTACT ROLLED DOWN THE DRIVER'S WINDOW AND HAD TO HOLD THE EXTERIOR TRIMMING TO THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE TO KEEP IT FROM DETACHING FROM THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY AND STRIKING OTHER MOTORISTS. JUPITER CHEVROLET (11611 I-635, GARLAND, TEXAS 75041, (972) 271-9900) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE SEAT BELT OR THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE TRIMMING FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED THE CONTACT WITH CASE NUMBER: 8-484-580-7149. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000.

I HAD AN ISSUE WITH MY BREAKS AND CHEVY SAID IT WAS MY BRAKE VACUUM PUMP. THEY REPLACED IT AT MY COST. I HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY SO IT ONLY COST ME A $150 DEDUCTIBLE. I JUST READ ABOUT THIS IN THE NEWS AND DECIDED TO REPORT IT. BUT IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS. IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC, I CONSTANTLY FELT THAT MY BREAKS WERE GONE AND ALMOST REAR ENDED SEVERAL DIFFERENT CARS

2015 TAHOE WAS BEING BACKING UP INTO PARKING SPACE AND LOST ALL CAPABILITY TO BRAKE. VEHICLE WITH 64,500 MILES (OUT OF WARRANTY) AND NO OTHER PREVIOUS MECHANICAL ISSUE. INCIDENT DID NOT RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT OR INJURY BUT VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AFTER RESEARCHING PROBLEM AND IDENTIFYING OTHER LATE MODEL CHEVROLET TRUCKS OWNERS WITH SIMILAR BRAKING PROBLEMS. OWNER DESCRIBED PROBLEM AND INFORMED DEALER OF CHEVROLET TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN. VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED WITH REPLACEMENT OF BRAKE BOOSTER, VACUUM PUMP, AND BRAKE VACUUM SENSOR. NO RECURRENCE SINCE REPAIR AND VEHICLE NOW OPERATING AS DESIGNED WITH 66,700 MILES.

MY 2015 TAHOE RIDES LIKE I AM ON A WASHBOARD ALL THE TIME - ANYTIME THE CAR IS IN MOTION. I CAN FEEL EVERY BUMP IN THE ROAD. IT IS JUST AWFUL. I EVEN CAMP UP OFF MY SEAT TODAY JUST RIDING DOWN THE ROAD. IT STARTED RIGHT AROUND THE TIME THE CAR TURNED 50,000 MILES. MY HUSBAND HAS A 2011 GMC PICKUP TRUCK THAT RIDES BETTER THAN THAT VEHICLE. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH IT APPEARS THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE MAGNETIC RIDE SHOCKS. THERE ARE MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ONLINE. I AM WRITING TO REQUEST A RECALL ON THE SHOCKS FOR THE 2015 TAHOE.

HEADLIGHTS ON DRIVER SIDE KEEPS WATER AND MOISTURE IN IT AND BURNS OUT THE SIGNAL BULB BOUGHT IT TO TWO DEALER SHIPS AND THEY TOLD ME ALL TAHOE'S DO THAT AND GM WILL NOT WARRIOR SO IF GM KNOWS ABOUT THIS Y DON'T FIT THE PROBLEM I DRIVE MY GRANDKIDS AROUND AND IF IT RAINS AND BURNS THE SIGNAL BULB OUT IT COULD CAUSE A ACCIDENT BECAUSE MY SIGNAL BULB BURN OUT AND THERE IS NO CRACK IN THE LENS I WAS DRIVING YESTERDAY AND WAS TURNING LEFT AND ALMOST GOT HIT BECAUSE THE OTHER CAR TAUGHT I WAS GOING STRAIGHT THE BULB BURN OUT WHEN I PUT MY BLINKER ON BECAUSE THE INFORMATION PANEL TOLD ME THAT MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL WAS OUT

EXTREMELY ROUGH RIDE IN FRONT END OF 2015 TAHOE WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. DEALERSHIP FOUND ROUGH RIDE TO BE CAUSED BY THE SUSPENSION. LEAKING SHOCKS AND STRUTS. DEALERSHIP FOUND BULLETIN #PIT5429 REPLACED THE FRONT AND REAR SHOCKS AND REPROGRAMMED THE SUSPENSION CONTROL MODULE, 10/6/16. BROUGHT TAHOE TO DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND SHOCKS/STRUTS ARE LEAKING AGAIN, 10/2/18.

NO BRAKES WHEN SITTING IN TRAFFIC OR GOING AT A SLOW SPEED . PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR. HAS 40.000 MILES . JUST PURCHASED USED AT DEALER 2 MONTHS . HAD 3000 MILES FROM TIME OF PURCHASE PUT ON VEHICLE. WAS WAITING ON LINE AT MIDTOWN TUNNEL WHEN BRAKES WENT OUT . PRETTY SCARY

VEHICLE IS NOTICEABLY LOWER IN THE FRONT END, YOU CAN SEE THE ANGLE OF THE VEHICLE WHILE STANDING BESIDE IT. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, COMING OUT OF A PARKING LOT, GOING OVER A SPEED BUMP, GOING OVER AN UNEVEN PART OF THE ROAD, OVER EVEN GOING OVER A BRIDGE (SO BASICALLY JUST DRIVING IN GENERAL!) THE VEHICLE BOUNCES UP AND DOWN HARSHLY. THE VEHICLE WILL BOUNCE SEVERAL, SEVERAL, SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT RIDES "NORMAL" AGAIN DOWN THE ROAD, AND I SAY "NORMAL" LOOSELY AS IT IT STILL NOT RIDING PROPERLY. AT TIMES THE VEHICLE BECOMES SO BOUNCY, THAT I FEEL THE VEHICLE COME OFF THE ROAD, AND HAS CAUSED ME TO GO INTO THE OTHER LANE BEFORE. GM IS GOING TO LOOK AT , BUT IF ITS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, IT WILL COST OVER $2,000 TO FIX. THIS IS ALSO A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED WITH A POWER-TRAIN, AND CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED WARRANTY CURRENTLY ACTIVE. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO REPLACE WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE BAD MAGNETIC STRUTS ON SOMETHING I'VE OWNED 1 & 1/2 YEARS. VEHICLE IS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE, BUT GM HAS ZERO LOANER VEHICLES FOR ME TO DRIVE, SO THEY SUGGEST I PAY OUT OF POCKET AND USE ENTERPRISE. IT'S GOTTEN SO BAD, THAT I KNOW THE PARTS IN THE ROAD WHERE IT BOUNCES THE WORST, AND I HAVE TO COME TO A NEAR COMPLETE STOP BEFORE GOING OVER THAT PATCH, JUST TO KEEP THE VEHICLE ON THE ROAD. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET, HIGHWAYS, DIRT ROAD, BASICALLY ANY TYPE OF ROAD.

Z95 MAGNETIC SUSPENSION STRUT FAILED AND LEAKING, MAKING THE RIDE VERY BOUNCY AND UNCRONTROLLABLE. THIS FAILED AT ABOUT 65K MILES.

VEHICLE BARELY 3 YEARS OLD AND THE AC COMPRESSOR IS BROKEN. BLOWING HOT AIR. CONTACTED GM AND WAS INITIALLY TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE AC SYSTEM. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE AND DISCOVERING THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS AND THE ASTONISHING NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS FOR 2015-2017 CHEVROLET TAHOE'S, WE CALLED BACK AND WERE TOLD OUR VIN WAS NOT COVERED. I FIND IT VERY COINCIDENTAL THAT THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL AS OUR VEHICLE AND SAME YEAR HAVE A DEFECTIVE AC SYSTEM WITH THE SAME DEFECT AS OURS, BUT OURS JUST HAPPENS TO BE NOT INCLUDED. THIS IS MY 3RD AND LAST CHEVROLET TAHOE. *JS

BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES HARD TO PRESS WHEN RPMS ARE LOW. UNABLE TO STOP QUICKLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL A COUPLE OF TIMES AND THE BRAKE POWER WAS RESTORED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO BILL CRAMER CHEVROLET BUICK GMC (850-250-1403, LOCATED AT 2251 W 23RD ST, PANAMA CITY, FL 32405) WHERE IT WAS STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE DEALER REPLACED THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 68,000.

2015 CHEVY TAHOE LTZ. FRONT MAGNETIC RIDE CONTROL STRUTS BLOWN OUT WITH 56,000 MILES. RIDICULOUS. $1600 COST TO REPLACE. GM NEEDS TO RECALL THESE AND REPLACE. THESE SHOULD LAST MUCH LONGER. IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE AS YOUR NORMAL DRIVER WOULD PROBABLY NEVER KNOW. THIS TAHOE HAS NEVER EVEN SEEN DIRT.

SEAT MOVES WHEN TURNING CORNERS 90 DEGREES. SEEMS VERY UNSAFE. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS 'FIXED', 30 DAYS LATER DRIVER SIDE SEAT MOVES AGAIN!

AFTER COMING TO A STOP OR SLOWING DOWN AND ACCELERATING AGAIN, THE VEHICLE CAN'T CATCH ITS GEAR AND BASICALLY GOES INTO NEUTRAL. THE RPMS REV WAY UP, YOU CAN PUSH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND IT STILL WON'T GO UNTIL IT FINALLY FINDS A GEAR. WE'VE OWNED THIS VEHICLE 2 WEEKS AND IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES EVERY TIME WE DRIVE IT. WE NEARLY GOT REAR ENDED ON THE INTERSTATE AFTER TRYING TO ACCELERATE AFTER SLOWING DOWN FOR TRAFFIC. IT HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY, IN THE CITY, AND ON THE INTERSTATE.

AC DELCO BOTH FRONT STRUTS BLOW OUT AT 80000 MI AND IT BOTTOM OUT AND NOW I HAVE STOMACH PAIN FROM THE SEAT BELT FOR TWO WEEKS AND A PAIN IN MY NECK FOR 5 DAYS I WAS DOING ABOUT 30 MPH

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED, BUT WAS DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP. THE CONTACT HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKE PEDAL IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (ED BOZARTH CHEVROLET, 8351 PARKWAY DR, LONE TREE, CO 80124, (720) 279-0119).

THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 97,700.

FRONT MAGNETIC SUSPENSION FAILED AT 79,000 MILES. NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS REPORTED ONLINE FROM OTHER CONSUMERS. GM MUST ADDRESS THIS! CONSUMERS UNFAMILIAR WITH DETECTING MECHANICAL FAILURE MIGHT CONTINUE TO DRIVE WITH THIS COMMON, DANGEROUS SUSPENSION FAILURE AND CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR FATALITY.

DRIVERS SEAT MOVES UNDER YOU WHEN TURNING, STOPPING, AND ACCELERATING.

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 CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE CONDENSER FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,000.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, THE AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED COOLING AND STARTED BLOWING HOT AIR. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING LIKE A STROBE LIGHT. I HAVE SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 44,790

TAKATA RECALL WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY I HAD TO SLOW DOWN AS I PRESSED ON THE BREAK THE BREAK PADDLE BECAME HARD TO PRESS DOWN AND THE VEHICLE IS DOES NOT WANT TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP IN A TIMELY MANNER WHICH IS A VERY BIG SAFETY ISSUE. THE. BREAK ASSISTANCE COMES ON THE DRIVE DASHBOARD. I BELIEVE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER.

I HAVE A 2015 CHEVY TAHOE LTZ. RIDES LIKE CRAP EVEN AFTER I INSTALLED THE $1800 FRONT AND REAR STRUTS. ITS VERY ROUGH AT LOW OR HIGH SPEEDS. ITS VERY BOUNCY AND DANGEROUS. RIDICULOUS THAT A $65,000 LUXURY VEHICLE HAS SUCH A BAD DESIGN ON THE SUSPENSION!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE AIR CONDITIONER BLEW OUT HOT AIR. THE CONTACT EXITED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED FLUID LEAKING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THAT THE CONDENSER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED AT DEPAULA CHEVROLET (785 CENTRAL AVE, ALBANY, NY 12206, (518) 278-6036) FOR AN ALIGNMENT PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO BILL BUCK CHEVROLET (2324 TAMIAMI TRL S, VENICE, FL 34293-5056, (941) 493-5000) FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND REPAIR.

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.

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.

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.

MULTIPLE ISSUES EFFECTING THIS VEHICLE, AND THE ISSUES OCCUR WHEN STABILITRAC ISSUE AND ABS ISSUE POPS UP ON SCREEN. A/C ALSO STOPS BLOWING COLD AIR, AND SPEEDOMETER READS ZERO WHILE MOVING. THE STABILITRAC AND ABS ISSUES FIRST OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES STARTING IN THE EARLY WARRANTY PERIOD.THE MAIN CONCERN IS THE POWER ASSIST MALFUNCTIONING CAUSING TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. WHEN POWER ASSIST RE-ENGAGES, THE VEHICLE WILL JUMP IN THE DIRECTION THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I REPEAT THAT THESE ISSUES STARTED TO OCCUR DURING THE EARLY WARRANTY PERIOD IN 2015. THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUES. THERE ARE MULTIPLE POSTS ON LINE CONCERNING THE PROBLEMS WITH THE 2015 TAHOE, SOME ACTUALLY CAUSING ACCIDENTS.

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

NO POWER ASSIST WITH BRAKES, HARD PEDAL, INADEQUATE BRAKING. FOUND VEHICLES VACUUM PUMP AND LINE THAT SUPPLIES VACUUM TO THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE POWER STEERING "DRIVE WITH CAUTION" WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SERVICE CHEVROLET CADILLAC (1212 AMBASSADOR CAFFERY PKWY, LAFAYETTE, LA 70506, (337) 234-9411) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS AN OPEN RECALL FOR THE FAILURE, BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 93,000.

ON MAY 31, 2018 I PURCHASED A 2015 CHEVY TAHOE LTZ WITH 30,000MILES THAT HAD BEEN TRADED IN AT A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP. WITHIN DAYS OF PURCHASING IT, THE CAR BEGAN HAVING ISSUES WITH A STABILITRAK WARNING FOLLOWED BY OTHER ERRATIC COMPUTER WARNINGS. IN FOLLOWING WEEKS THE CAR ALSO BEGAN HAVING COMPLETE POWER FAILURE AT LOW SPEEDS WHILE TURNING AND CONTINUES TO HAVE THESE PROBLEMS TO DATE. THE ENGINE ALSO BEGAN SMOKING IN JULY, CAUSED, AS IT TURNS OUT, BY A JAMMED BELT ON THE AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD MANY POWER FAILURES IN PARKING LOTS, ON STREETS, THE HIGHWAY TUNNEL IN BOSTON AND MOST RECENTLY ON LABOR DAY WEEKEND WHEN THE CAR STALLED IN CHARLESTOWN, RI WHILE SLOWING DOWN AT AN INTERSECTION. I HAD NO WARNING FLASHERS OR BRAKE LIGHTS AND THE DOORS WOULD NOT OPEN. WITH THE HELP OF THE LOCAL POLICE DEPT. WHO ASSISTED ME UNTIL THE CAR RESTARTED, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT TO A LOCAL RESIDENCE. THE FORD DEALERSHIP SENT A FLATBED TRUCK TO TOW IT BACK TO THE FACILITY WHERE I PURCHASED IT. THE DEALERSHIP CONTINUES TO RETURN THE CAR TO ME AS IT DOESN'T FAIL WHEN THEY DRIVE IT DUE TO ITS ERRATIC NATURE, AND SERVICE BY SEVERAL GM DEALERS THEY HAVE SENT IT TO HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEMS EITHER. I AM STUNNED TO LEARN THAT THIS VEHICLE IS NOT ON THE RECENT RECALL LIST FROM GM REGARDING POWER STEERING ISSUES AT SLOW SPEEDS. IN A PHONE CALL TO GM CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE ON 9/21/18 (CASE NUMBER 8-4650063752) THE REPRESENTATIVE CONFIRMED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT ON THE LIST. I TRUST THAT BY REPORTING THESE PROBLEMS TO YOU GM WILL BE ABLE TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE AND INSURE MY SAFETY AND THOSE AROUND ME WHILE DRIVING. I APPRECIATE YOUR ASSISTANCE AND WOULD BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE ANY DOCUMENTATION I HAVE AVAILABLE IF REQUESTED. ATTACHED ARE PICTURES OF THE VEHICLE AND THE ID PLATE FROM THE SIDE OF THE CAR.
