MONTHS PASSED AND I WAS LOOKING UP POSSIBLE CAUSES AND ON A WEB SITE A COMPLAINT MADE BY SOMEBODY WHO'S TAHOE WAS DOING THE SAME THING THAT'S WHEN I FILED A CLAIM WITH CHEVY/GM SOMEWHERE AROUND JUNE 20 2018 AND SPOKE MONIQUE HILL WHO TOOK MY REPORT AND MONTHS LATER DENIED MY CLAIM AND IN THE SAME LETTER SAID GET YOUR VACUM ASST SERVICED AND I THOUGHT THAT WAS STRANGE!

WAS INVOLVED IN A AUTO ACCIDENT IN SEPT 2017 IN WHICH I REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE.I WAS TRAVELING SOUTHBOUND ON GREENMOUNT ROAD IN SHILOH IL. COMING TO A STOP AT A STOPLIGHT AT ABOUT 30 MPH, I WAS TRYING TO KILL A SPIDER SO MY EYES WERE OFF THE ROAD BUT WHEN THE COLLISION ALERT ALARM SOUNDED I IMMEDIETLY HIT THE BRAKES WHICH WERE HARD MAKING BRAKING DIFFICULT THERE IS NO WAY AN IMPACT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENDED. WHEN THE COLLISION ALERT ALARM SOUNDS THE BRAKE PEDALS BECAME HARD MAKING THE STOPPING OF THE CHEVY TAHOE IMPOSSIBLE SO I COULD NOT AVOID REAR ENDING OF THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. NOW WHILE DRIVING THE TAHOE WITHOUT THE COLLISION ALERT ACTIVATED THE SUV STOPS LIKE NORMAL, ONLY WHEN THE COLLISION ALERT IS ACTIVATED DOES THE HARD BRAKE PEDALS OCCUR WHICH TO ME IS THE OPPOSITE EFFECT.
I WAS DRIVING A 2016 CHEVY TAHOE ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET. MY CAR LOST ALL CONTROL OF STEERING AND BRAKES. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR VEERED TO THE RIGHT AND HIT A CAR, CONTINUED ON HITTING 2 MORE PARKED CARS, DROVE THRU SOMEONE'S LARGE HEDGES, AND WAS SECONDS AWAY FROM DRIVING INTO SOMEONE'S HOUSE BUT WAS STOPPED WHEN I HIT THE 2 PARKED CARS IN THE DRIVEWAY. MY AIRBAG ALSO DID NOT DEPLOY. TWO CARS INVOLVED WERE TOTALED. AGAIN, I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE STEERING OR THE BRAKES. THANK GOD I'M ALIVE AND I DIDN'T KILL ANYONE.
THURSDAY, APRIL 12, 2018. HEADING TO WORK ONE MORNING ON THE INTERSTATE, THE GIRL IN FRONT OF ME PUT ON BREAKS (WE WERE IN THE FAST LANE), SO I PUT ON MY BREAKS. I LOOKED IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SAW THE DRIVER BEHIND ME NOT PAYING ATTENTION AND GOING 50-55 MPH. I HAD ENOUGH TIME TO BRACE MYSELF BEFORE HE HIT ME FROM BEHIND WHICH MADE ME HIT THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME (I HAVE VIDEO AND PICTURES). FORTUNATELY, MY TAHOE HELD UP PRETTY GOOD AND DIDN'T CRUMBLE WITH THE TYPE OF IMPACT IT HAD. MY CONCERN IS MY AIRBAGS DID DEPLOY BUT ACTUALLY DIDN'T. THE SMOKE CAME OUT FROM THE AIRBAGS THROUGH THE DASH AND MY AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT CAME ON MY ALERTS ON THE DASH. IF I WOULDN'T HAVE PREPARED AND BRACED MYSELF THEN MY FACE WOULD HAVE GONE IN THE STEERING WHEEL. I DIDN'T SEE A RECALL BUT IS THERE A REASON THEY DIDN'T COME OUT? ALSO, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AWAY FROM THE SCENE TO TAKE THE TAHOE TO BODY SHOP BUT THE SEAT BELT WAS LOCKED IN IT'S PLACE AND COULD NOT REBUCKLE (I WAS BUCKLED DURING THE CRASH)
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE CONTACT STRUCK A BEAR WITH THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED. THE CONTACT WAS NOT SURE IF A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NECK INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THE BODY SHOP. THE VEHICLE RECEIVED REPAIRS TO THE FRONT FRAME; HOWEVER, THE ADDITIONAL REPAIRS WERE UNKNOWN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN AN AIR BAG RECALL. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,004.
RUNNING BOARDS ARE SLIPPERY WHEN WET NEED TO MODIFY ?
WHEN DRIVING, DRIVER AND PASSENGERS GET SEVERE HEADACHES, DIZZINESS, AND DISORIENTATION. THE CAR ALSO VIBRATES QUITE A BIT. THE PRESSURE INSIDE THE CABIN CAN BE FELT UPON TURNING ON THE VEHICLE, AND OPENING THE WINDOWS DOES NOT HELP. THE SENSATION ALMOST FEELS MAGNETIC. THE ORIGINAL TIRES FAILED A ROAD BALANCE TEST AND WERE REPLACED. THIS DID NOT HELP THE ISSUE.
WHILE TRAVELING ON THE PA TURNPIKE 3/31/16 APPRX.3:00 PM, I EXPERIENCED TOTAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE. ONLY AFTER SEEING SMOKE EMITTING FROM THE VEHICLE, WOULD THE HEAVY TRAFFIC ALLOW ME TO PULL TO THE SHOULDER. I PUT THE TRANS INTO PARK AND BACK INTO DRIVE, ALLOWING ME TO MOVE APPX 100 YARDS TO A SAFER PULL OFF. THE VEHICLE IS AT THE DEALER AND GM HAS BEEN CONTACTED CASE # 8-1908837872. NO FURTHER CONTACT BY ME TO GM, OR FROM GM TO ME.
I was driving down highway and saw a wall of cars and brake lights in the distance, so naturally my foot tried to push the brakes. The pedal was hard, and I panicked because my tahoe was not stopping at all! I continued to stomp on brake pedal all the way until my car actually hit 3 vehicles and then the guardrail! My brakes did not work , because if they did then I would have easily prevented this accident!!
Near collision with pedestrian in crosswalks on left turns and near collision with pedestrians crossing multi lane roads who entering from a landscaped center island. I have repeatedly experienced this situation even though I am acutely aware of the view obstruction created by the large A-pillar, air bag and drivers side mirror. It has become evident from the incidents in my neighborhood that trucks and SUV's are involved in the fatalities at crosswalks and multi lane roadways. An recent fatality occurred on December 10 2022 in Poway at the intersection of Midland and Edgmoore Rd. 35yr old women killed in crosswalk by driver making left turn. The January 24th 2022 fatality happened on Community Rd. in Poway 92064. It would appear your forms are incident focused and not geared to identify safety hazards that have not been considered. Please contact me to discus this safety issue if you have seen an unexplained increase in pedestrian traffic fatalities that involve trucks and suv's. Thank You,
Brakes do not work when driving in slow speeds. I could not stop my 2016 Tahoe in a shopping center parking lot. Pedal was stiff and non responsive. I had the same issue parking in my garage. Vehicle did not stop and went into the wall!!
2016 CHEVROLET TAHOE. CONSUMER STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SWAY AND WAS UNASTABLE. THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE TOWING A TRAILER, THE VEHICLE BEGAN SWAYING UNCONTROLLABLY AND FLIPPED ON IT'S SIDE. THE TRAILER WAS TOTALED.
JUST RECENTLY GOT MY BRAKES RE-PROGRAMMED AND IMMEDIATELY THEY CONTINUED NOT TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY. THE WARNING LIGHTS DON'T COME ON BUT THEY STILL DO NOT STOP IN TIME. IN A PARKING LOT I COULD NOT STOP AND HIT A SIGN IN FRONT OF THE PARKING SPACE. WILL CHEVROLET FIX THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY MY CAR. ALSO NOTED IN A DRIVE-THROUGH CANNOT GET STOPPED IN TIME WHEN TRYING TO FOLLOW CARS. AND IT BACKING DOWN A HILL AT SLOWER SPEEDS CAR WILL NOT STOP. BRAKES JUST SHAKE WHEN YOU TRY TO PUSH THEM. THINKING OF GETTING AN ATTORNEY BECAUSE I NEED SOMEONE TO FIX MY CAR NOW
HELLO MY TAHOE WAS IN A CHEVROLET DEALER ON OCTOBER 25 BECAUSE OF A BRAKE RECALL, THE TRUCK WAS 'FIXED' THAT SAME DAY. THE ONLY THING IS THAT MY TRUCK WON'T START ANYMORE SINCE THEN. I HAD MY TRUCK PARKED IN A GARAGE SINCE THE DAY WE GOT HOME FROM THE DEALER AND TODAY 11/13/19 WHEN I GET TO TURN IT ON IT JUST WON'T START. ALSO MY HUSBAND HAD A CAR ACCIDENT DUE TO THE BRAKES NOT WORKING IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR BEFORE WE KNEW THE TRUCK WAS ON RECALL. HE WAS IN A CITY STREET AND HE TRIED TO BRAKE BECAUSE THE CAR IN FRONT OF HIS WAS MAKING A STOP THE BRAKES JUST DIDN'T WORK, HE TRIED TO AVOID THE CAR BY TURNING TO HIS LEFT BUT THE FRONT SIDE OUR TRUCK HIT THE BACK OF THE CAR. I HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION OF THE INSURANCE WHEN THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED. THANK YOU HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON.
