I was hit in a head on collision going through a stop light which resulted in me hitting the steering wheel and my air bag did not deploy. Furthermore since then my back windshield wiper works only occasionally. Ofcourse it works when i can get in at the dealership.
The contact owned a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated while his wife was driving 55 mph, another vehicle pulled out in front of his vehicle hitting the front of his vehicle. The contact stated the air bags on the side of the vehicle deployed however, the front driver air bag did not deploy. A police report was filed.the contact's wife was transported to the hospital by ambulance as she sustained broken ribs and chest pains. The vehicle was towed to a tow yard and deemed a total loss. The manufacturer nor local dealer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 100,000.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated while driving approximately 45 mph the contact crashed into another vehicle causing that vehicle swerve into the opposite lane and crash into three other vehicles. The air bags failed to deploy and the contacts seat belts failed to lock. Medical attention was required for the passengers of the other vehicle for unknown injuries. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic. The failure was not diagnosed but the entire front panel needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired.

I live in a fairly arid climate, where rain doesn't occur frequently.a couple of months ago, after my tahoe had been sitting in the rain, inoticed water dripping from the inside door pillar when i opened the door.i just assumed it was water than came in from the outside when i opened the door. Then about nine days ago, while driving in the rain, water began dripping from the top center console area, in a steady stream.when i took it into the chevrolet dealer they said that the seal on the hi-frequency antennae (shark fin antennae), over the driver's side was faulty, and that water was leaking in through it.since there was not a recall for my vin, and since rain was predicted to continue for several days, i had no choice but to pay $452.32 to have a new antennae installed. The service department did what they could to dry the area out in between the roof and the ceiling and left the cover off the side driver's airbag so it would dry, telling me to return in a week so they could replace the cover on the airbag.in addition to being out a lot of money, i am concerned about the side airbag possibly malfunctioning after being wet over a period of time.
The contact owned a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving various speeds, the digital instrument panel would display incorrectly. Also, the air conditioner and remote start failed. The vehicle was taken to washington chevrolet (1 raymond blvd, washington, pa 15301 (724) 222-2800), where a software malfunction was diagnosed and the software was updated, but the failure recurred. Several months later, while driving 25 mph, the contact inadvertently swerved to the left and struck a utility pole and fence. The air bags failed to deploy and there were no warning indicators illuminated. The contact sustained head injuries and bruising that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and deemed a total loss. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, but did not assist. The contact mentioned that the vehicle was serviced per nhtsa campaign number: 16v651000 (air bags, seat belts). The failure mileage was approximately 24,000.
While driving the vehicle's driver seat will move forwards and backwards making it unable to reach pedals to stop safely,air bag light will flash erratically,loud ticking noise, miss-fire/vibration while idling.been to the dealership twice to fix still not fixed, contacted gm about issues and to file a complaint.now dealership refuses to work on tahoe
No complaints thus far
A-pillar water leak -vehicle is not designed to have water in the a-pillar.water may have damaged side air curtain
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. When the vehicle was shifted into reverse at night, the rear camera failed to display an image. The vehicle was taken to love chevrolet (100 parkridge dr, columbia, sc 29212, (803) 454-9382) three times and the contact was informed that the vehicle was designed in that manner and it would be the engineer's responsibility to repair the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 600.
When driving at slow speeds (restaurant drive-thru, stop and go traffic) i often find myself having difficulty pushing the brake pedal, as it is extremely hard to push down the pedal and the car will not come to a stop for 2-3 feet. I feel a strong vibration during this and a low pitched crunching sound, and cannot push the brake down.i am afraid i will have a collision.i did the 2019 recall in which the dealer recalibrated something with the brakes. But it i continuing to have problems, i took it back to the dealership to test the vacuum pump, but they said the "testing was normal" and they were not willing to drive it long enough to replicate the problem i was having, saying that it was worn rotors and brake pads that were causing the issue.i know what the car feels like when the rotors/pads need changing, and i do have slight vibration when braking at high speeds, but never where i have increased brake effort.only at slow speeds and if i am pressing the brake multiple times.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. When the brake pedal was depressed, the courtesy lights illuminated while approaching a stop at various points in time. The vehicle was purchased from an independent seller who also experienced the failure at 17,000 miles. The dealer (manassas chevrolet, 8000 sudley rd, manassas, va 20109, (703) 596-3031) was contacted. The manufacturer issued two electrical system recalls, one recall for the brake system, 322 tsbs for the electrical system, and 32 tsbs for the brake system. The vehicle was not included in a manufacturer recall for the brake system and electrical system. The manufacturer indicated that they had not developed a permanent remedy other than replacing the courtesy lamp on the front passenger and front driver's side. The approximate failure mileage was 80,500.
Interior lights flickering when brake pedal is applied -this is both distracting and dangerous to the driver as this happens when we are in motion when the brake pedal is applied.i have seen other complaints online so wondering why there is not a recall.
January 15, 2015 not even two weeks after purchasing my vehicle i got in it after work and noticed i couldn't manage the climate controllers (heating/air conditioning/speed/air flow) nothing in the front or back. I immediately called the dealership and sent in a picture. All the knobs and controllers for just the climate were dark, no lighting as if the vehicle was off. I drove it home and since it was so cold out it was thought maybe it just needed to warm up more. I drove 45 minutes home and the climate controllers never turned on again until the next morning. Took it to the dealership because i was also having other issues and they stated they couldn't find anything wrong.everything has been fine with the climate controllers from that point on until this weekend. On march 21, 2015 i drove to pick up breakfast, everything was fine. An hour later after we piled in the vehicle and were driving i went to kick the air on as it was getting warm and noticed the controllers were not responding again. I pulled over into a parking lot and recorded my actions so the dealership can't say they need to "see it." i turned the vehicle off, tried turning the lights on and off, remote starting, everything but disconnecting the battery. Nothing. The rest of the day while we bounced from store to store with had no air. March 22nd, it was back on as normal. Today march 23rd after work it was not operational again.something needs to be done, the last post i had on this site was when i had a 2014 gmc acadia and my son over heated from a very similar situation. This is beyond ridiculous that i have yet another gm made vehicle and there is a major issue with a brand new vehicle. Gm needs to be held responsible, not having heat or air conditioning in a family vehicle is extremely dangerous for anyone who depends on travel with that vehicle.
Center dome flight "strobes" when brake pedal is depressed.this seems to only happen when headlights are on.this is a know tsb- 1268b.i have contacted both the dealer and gm customer service.-will not be covered since i am out of warranty-
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. When the brake pedal was depressed, the led strobe lights in the second and third row seats flashed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure occurred on numerous occasions. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 4,000.
The battery power saver light came on then as backing out of driveway i lost power and steering control service brake assist light flashed as well as service stabilitrack and steering assist returned home bc i had five kids in vehicle and couldnā€™t risk it
When i hit a bump the steering locks up for a quick second and all the warning lights flash quickly. The doors lock as well. It is usually when i hit a bump on the passenger side area. Voltage meter flickers and headlights dim.
At slow speeds the vehicle has shut off twice now, once in the middle of los angeles traffic almost causing us to wreck! we have taken it in for that and a popping in the stearing wheel and they told us nothing was wrong. It is a major safety hazard and would like to see something done about it!
Our tahoe has had an issue over the past 9 months. The engine unexpectedly stalls. This has happened twice while pulling out on to a busy highway. Very frightening. We first took this to the dealer on 8/15/17. They spent hours trying to diagnose and found nothing. The stalling continued to happen occasionally. Early december the stalling occurred while pulling in to our garage. We lost all power momentarily and it would not restart this time. I disconnected the negative battery cable and then reconnected it and everything worked fine again. We took it back to the dealer on 12/8/17. Iafter researching this more it seems numerous people are having the same issue. Traction control warning comes on when the stall occurs. This time i was more insistent that they fix this and explained my wife was scared to death to drive this. This time the dealer said that they have changed the negative battery cable on other customers vehicles and that has fixed the problem. My reaction was why didn't you tell us this last time and why isn't therea recall? so far this has fixed the problem. I contacted gm and they did not give me a straight answer on this proble. Basically they said we may have had a defective part.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving approximately 60 mph, the dome light flickered on and off. The contact stated that the failure occurred for the past two months every time the vehicle was driven at night. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact stated that there was a manufacturer communications number (pi1268b) in reference to the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
While the vehicle is in motion, and the interior dome lights are off, i press the brake pedal, and the dome lights flicker very intensely for a half-second. This flickering also happens when the left turn signal is activated. It is a very bright flicker and could cause an accident due to momentary distraction or light-blinding.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving various speeds, the interior lighting flickered when the driver's side turn signal was activated. When the brake pedal was depressed, the interior lighting would also flicker. The vehicle was taken to whiteside chevrolet buick gmc cadillac (located at 50714 national rd e, st clairsville, oh 43950, (740) 695-0211) where it was diagnosed that the failure was due to an electrical issue. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified and provided case number: 8-4804205228. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
I was hit in a head on collision going through a stop light which resulted in me hitting the steering wheel and my air bag did not deploy. Furthermore since then my back windshield wiper works only occasionally. Ofcourse it works when i can get in at the dealership.
While driving on the highway at high speeds, 70-80 mph, steering became extremely difficult for brief periods. Often times it was immediately following actuation of the automatic window switch. It was accompanied with a lot of the loss of electrical power, a flickering control panel, abs light, stab trak, brake assist, and park assist warnings. A/c would stop, radio would turn off, the dashboard would flicker, then i would have to acknowledge all of the warnings in order to clear the issue. Steering was tough, though controllable, but i question the ability of a less experienced drive to be able to handle the same problem at those speeds. This has happened before at lower speeds, usually while backing up to park. At lower speeds the suv would cut off completely. At higher speeds, the stall was recoverable, very fortunate in this matter. Unable to get the issue to repeat at the dealership and it is very inconsistent. Usually resets itself once the car is turned off and restarted.
During a low speed left turn across oncoming lanes of traffic, my 2015 tahoe had a complete loss of all power and stopped right in the middle of oncoming traffic. Luckily oncoming traffic was at a distance that they were able to notice my tahoe had died blocking their lanes, and they corrected their path to go around. We could have been injured at the least if oncoming traffic had not noticed that our vehicle died. I purchased this tahoe used 3 weeks ago and this has happened 5 times since. After investigating on the internet i located post saying this issue has affected over 1 million other 2015 tahoes.
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.
While driving at night when applying the brakes the truck will shut off .all power will cut off ( truck will cut offf, no lights , all power shuts off . I will pop the hood move the battery post it hi the battery area and the power comes back on
Power steering loss occurs with the error message on the dic "steering assist is reduced drive with care", and additional error message "service (stabilitrak)".
If you press brake or use left turn signal overhead dome lights flash on and off.it occurs allthe time.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated while driving 40 mph, when the vents started to blow hot air. The contact stated that there was a leak under the front driver's side under the air condition location. The contact called five star chevrolet located at 1735 s. Interstate 35 e, carrollton, tx 75006, (439)208-8767, and the dealer was made aware of the failure. The contact was informed that the air conditioner condenser needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,409.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that water entered the vehicle through the roof of the vehicle, and various electrical components malfunctioned after inclement weather. The failures occurred without warning. Richard kay superstore (1935 pearman daily rd, anderson, sc) diagnosed that the antenna assembly and housing were defective and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified and referred the contact to nhtsa. The failure mileage was 36,611.
Vehicle looses power while driving for a short period of time. Starts with warning dash lights activing (abs, grade brake assist) loss of radio and then the truck cuts off, yet resets/restarts itself immediately.
Heavy moisture is accumulating in the front left headlight with no cracks in the light.it is causing the left front turn signal to malfunction with a warning on control panel.this is dangerous to driving when making left turns with no front turn signal and will cause an accident eventually to some owners who cannot afford to get it fixed.chevy will not take ownership of faulty design, part, or system and wants owner of car to assume responsibility for repair costs which are very high on these faulty parts.the extended warranty we purchased does not want to pay for repair either why should the owner who has no control over the installation of defective system have to pay for it ?please help save lives from potential crashes.
The interior brake lights constantly flashing when driving.the issue makes the vehicle unsafe to drive at night.
Power steering went out after being recalled in 2018.
The contact owned a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds the vehicle engine would cease. The cause of the failure has not yet been determined the contact was left stranded in the middle of the road and expressed concerns for his safety. The contact indicated that previously, the dashboard gauges had suddenly shut off and on occasions, the vehicle would not immediately start. The vehicle was towed to herb chambers chevrolet (90 andover st. Danvers ma 01923). The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 96,000 .
On several occasions my care has given me a warning of stability rack issues and it will then just shut down. This has happened in the middle of turning into parking lots as well as backing into parking spots. I then have to roll down and up my driver side and passenger side windows before i can restart my vehicle.
The interior dome lights flicker when applying the brakes and also when using the left turn signal. This happens whether the vehicle is stationary or in motion.
Both tail lights have stopped working at the same time.not a fuse, it's a malfunction within the light itself.
And 2015 chevrolet tahoe and suburban vehicles equipped with a base radio and an internal amplifier. The radios in the affected vehicles may become inoperative, and as a result, there would be no audible chime to notify the driver if the door is opened with the key in the ignition or no audible seat belt warning indicating the seat belts were not buckled. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) numbers 114, "theft protection and rollaway prevention," and 208, "occupant crash protection."
My tahoe showed stabilitrak issues when i first bought it a year ago. I received a recall notice and took it into the nearest dealer. It was ok for awhile but the same problem started again a month ago. The truck turns on and off for about 1 second as i'm pulling into a parking space. However, now i've had issues when i try to lock it with the fob; it does nothing.i have been stranded at a business because it won't turn back on and i have to wait awhile and try to crank it. It comes back on but this has happened to me more than 3 times. Now, i was driving to work and as i pulled into my work garage, everything turned off completely and this time nothing came back on.i had to quickly turn the ignition key to the off position, thankfully i had my foot on the brake and i had to turn it back on again. I was worried because this is in the downtown area and this is a very busy city street in the morning hours. I was lucky it turned back on at all. Another time, i could not start my truck when i got off of work and i was stuck on the 3rd floor of my parking garage. I am concerned that i'll be driving and all of a sudden this tahoe will shut off while i'm in traffic.i have to travel 3 freeways to get to work and back home during heavy traffic, i'm worried about my safety and others as well because since this is an issue where the truck turns off completely, i will have no control on getting hit or hitting someone else at a high rate of speed (65 mph)
I put on the brakes and the interior lights flicker it is distracting while driving at night.seems to happen while car is running on the cooler side or just starting.this has been happening since we purchased the vehicle.i have done some research and it seems that i am not the only 2015 chevy tahoe owner who is experiencing this issue.
2015 chevrolet tahoe. Everytime the brake pedal was depressed, the interior lights in the vehicle would illuminate and flash causing blindness at night. This happens when stationary or in motion. Spoke to dealer who stated they never heard of issue. Provided them with a possible tsb #p11268 from alldata. This has occurred at least 50 times
The vehicle has a problem with the interior courtesy lights flashing or pulsation when you engage the brake and /or use the turn signal.see general motors bulletin number pi1268b,dome lights/ flicker on/off when operating brake pedal or turn signal,2014-2015 cadalliac,chevrolet,gmc.the vehicle are a hazard to lift and limb to drive.the bulletin states this is not a safety issue,believe that.the ignition switches weren't a safety issue ,yet people were murdered by gm's problem
While driving vehicle at slow speeds around turns we experience a loss os power steering and total vehicle power.this is a current recall which the local dealer is has checked and says there is no problem
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving 20 mph making a left turn, the front driver side tire seized and the stability track warning sensor illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the tie rod fractured and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 14v246000 (steering). In addition, the interior lighting illuminated randomly, the parking assist sensor beeped for 15 minutes, and the rear camera activated independently. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures and stated that the vin was not included in a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
I purchased a used 2015 chevrolet tahoe with about 140000 miles. After driving the vehicle for about a month i began to experience problems with the radio. It had an issue playing clearly. Then the display screen started jumping and moving through different commands on its own.just recently, two months after owning the vehicle, it has started to cut off completely while i am driving it.the first time it occurred is when i was about to make a left turn.the second time it occurred, i was backing into my drive way. This time it cut off completely three times in a row. I think i purchased a bad car and now i'm stuck with it until i can get enough money to sell it or trade it for another vehicle.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving approximately 25 mph, the steering wheel inadvertently pulled to the right. While attempting to depress the brake pedal, the brakes failed to stop the vehicle. As a result, the contact lost control of the vehicle and crashed into a parked vehicle. While the gear shifter was in reverse or drive, the vehicle failed to operate. The air bags did not deploy. The tire pressure and eps assist warning indicators illuminated. The contact sustained an injury to the lower back, but no medical attention was required. A police report was not filed. The vehicle was towed to nissani bros. Chevrolet (6101 w slauson ave, culver city, ca 90230 (424) 216-7400), but it had not been diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced nhtsa campaign number: 16v256000 (suspension). The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was provided case number: 8-3571350184. The contact was advised to call nhtsa. The approximate failure mileage was 25,400.
Interior lights blink when brakes are tapped and when using left turn signal. Has been happening for 2.5 years and i notified the dealership but repair would have been my cost.
January 2016 i purchased a 2015 certified chevytahoe (vin [xxx]) from kuni chevrolet cadillac located 2449 fulton ave,sacramento, ca 95825. Six months later i begin experiencing major issues with the vehicle.those issues includes the following: flickering of the head lights when using turning signals and or use of rolling up the car windows, the dash board completely powering off, the vehicle completely powering off, and the sterling wheel locking during any turns. Please note that all these issues takes place while driving the vehicle at any speed. I have taken my car in multiple times for the same issues however, autonation chevrolet airport continues to state that there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. There have been multiple near fatal car accidents due to the issues with this vehicle. While driving through a green light, making a left turn the steering wheel locked up causing the car to spin in the middle of the intersection as i slammed on the brakes to which i was stuck in the intersections for approximately five mins until the locked wheel would unlock thus allowing me to move. Another occasion took place while exiting off a high way ramp to which i slammed on breaks nearly causing other cars to rear end my vehicle. I have provided autonation chevrolet airport with video proof of the unsafe issues i am experiencing. I have taken the time to express in great detail to both the general manger [xxx] at autonation chevrolet airport and the following senior advisors at the gmc/chevrolet customer assistance cooperate office [xxx]. There have been multiple case numbers issued to address my concerns and the safety of this vehicle ([xxx]). I am seeking to get out of this unsafe vehicle.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
When applying the brakes or using the left turn signal, the interior lights in the first, second and third row flash. This is extremely dangerous while driving at night.
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.
The car fails to lock or disable the extra key (key fob), making it susceptible to theft and joyriding, when 1) passive locking is on, 2) the extra key fob is in the car and 3) a door is opened and closed after the vehicle has previously passively locked. This has been reported to several chevrolet dealerships, chevrolet customer care and elevated to chevrolet engineering in at least two cases.not only does the owners manual state that passive locking works with only one rke transmitter (key fob) removed, it makes logical sense that it would be designed that way. For example, you take your wife out for dinner. She leaves her purse in the car, with the second key in it, you would still want the car to passively lock if you had that function on and you walked away from the car.following are the details of what happens when passive locking is turned on and what the possible fatal consequences might be: 1) after the car has been driven, the passive locking system functions properly and locks the car with both key fobs removed or with one fob in the car. 2) with both fobs removed, someone with a key fob can approach the car and open and close the door any number of times and each time they walk away, the car will automatically (passively) lock. 3) if only one key fob is removed, someone with the external fob can approach and open the car but the car will not automatically lock when the doors are closed. Additionally, the key fob inside the car remains active and allows anyone to enter the car, because it is now unlocked, start and drive it away. 4) the unfortunate but possible fatal consequences of having the car unlocked and drivable is that it could be stolen and involved in a fatal accident. Possible scenarios of how this could happen are numerous. Gm should acknowledge this serious malfunction, address it and fix it before someone is hurt or killed.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that the liftgate, after being operated, would independently fall without warning. The vehicle was taken to klamath falls honda (2810 washburn way, klamath falls or) where it was diagnosed that the actuator and software were defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 38,000.
Vehicles dome lights flash when applying breaks..this also happens when you use your turning signals.. This is a hazard.
The interior light flash at night while driving
I received a combination of three error messages on the same day and they show every time i start the vehicle. Ā€œstabilitrakā€¯ service needed, ā€œsteering assist is reduced, drive with careā€¯ action required message, and ā€œrear parking assist symbols unavailableā€¯ error message when in reverse. Causes hard/lurch changes in gears. Affects the control of the vehicle and the ability to drive in a straight line.
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.
Pressing brake pedal causes interior lights to flash. Happens intermittent for first few minutes from start of vehicle.
Have a problem with electrical system. 1) the lane assist and reverse feedback comes and goes due to loose wiring.i found this is a common issue. 2) the new issue is once starting the vehicle and pressing brake pedal, interior lights flash. Happens intermittent for first few minutes from start of vehicle.
The new 2015 tahoes have a push button ignition.i pushed off the ignition with the car in drive (forgot to put in park), exited the vehicle and realized the car was rolling down the hill.i quickly jumped in and applied the brakes to stop the car.i was surprised that even though the car is in drive when the car's ignition is turned off, the transmission disengages and the car is in neutral!this is a big hazard.there should either be a fail safe and not allow the car to turn off in drive or automatically place the car in park when the ignition switch is pressed. (this is what happens on a recent model mercedes.)
Air conditioning compressor.i had to replace the a/c compressor on my 2015 tahoe about during july 2015. My vehicle has about 65,000 miles. This was unusual in that i have never had to replace this part in any vehicle i have owned over the last 40 years. The service department at the dealership told me that they are using after market replacement parts because the gm supply chain is out of a/c compressors because they are replacing so many of them in tahoe/yukons, silverado pickups and cadillac escalades. The part cost me about $1,400 to replace the part.i contacted gm customer service and was told there was nothing they could do because i was beyond warranty. It seems to me that my situation is not an isolated case but part of larger systemic issue in gm manufacturing. If gm supply chain cannot keep compressors in stock because they are replacing so many defective parts, this rises to the level of being a recall.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving at a slow speed and making a left turn, the vehicle stalled. The contact stated that the vehicle lost electrical power. The vehicle was unable to restart and the doors would not open. After approximately thirty minutes, the vehicle was able to be restarted. The contact stated that the failure previously occurred and that the high pressure fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The dealer diagnosed that the amperage from the battery was insufficient, which caused the vehicle to stall. The battery was replaced. The contact was concerned that the dealer was unable to verify if the failure was fully remedied and if the vehicle was safe to be driven. The manufacturer was notified of the failures.

My 2015 chevrolet tahoe ltz's headlights have developed condensation inside of them. The driver side light has an inch of standing water in it and now the turn signal and led running light no longer work on that side. Chevrolet said it will cost over $2,000 to replace both headlights. I know several other tahoe owners that have the same problem and our local police department has also had to replace headlights in several of their patrol tahoes. Chevy needs to issue a recall on their defective product!!!
Although the vehicle was sold with the capability for dingy towing using the optional transfer case as per the last 3 generations of tahoe's, it became apparent a design issue was present the first time i put the case in neutral and turned off the car.i advised the gm dealer and a month later they changed the procedure calling for battery disconnection.this results in the loss of all information.the first time i dingy towed the car using gm procedures my only key fob unsynced with the vehicle when the battery was reconnected.this left me with the truck in neutral connected to my bus with no way to disconnect it.it is not possible to back up with the vehicle connected to the busand there was no room to turn around.i was dead in the water in the middle of the road. I left the dead keyfob on the console and went to retrieve my phone to call the dealership service department and the vehicle locked itself with the key fob inside.onstar tried 4 times to unlock the vehicle without success or recognition of the signal from onstar.gm sent emergency service 3 hours later and they had to break into the car to open it. In order to unhook the car i had to drag a 14' limb out of the woods and block up the back wheels and ease the bus back about 1" to take pressure off the towing system.i cleared the bus out of the road but the vehicle sat in the middle of the road for 3 hours until we unlocked it. This is dangerous and could have been deadly to a pet or baby locked in the car during the heat of the day.this is a gm design issue and they refuse to accept responsibility!
The contact owned a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving various speeds, the digital instrument panel would display incorrectly. Also, the air conditioner and remote start failed. The vehicle was taken to washington chevrolet (1 raymond blvd, washington, pa 15301 (724) 222-2800), where a software malfunction was diagnosed and the software was updated, but the failure recurred. Several months later, while driving 25 mph, the contact inadvertently swerved to the left and struck a utility pole and fence. The air bags failed to deploy and there were no warning indicators illuminated. The contact sustained head injuries and bruising that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and deemed a total loss. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, but did not assist. The contact mentioned that the vehicle was serviced per nhtsa campaign number: 16v651000 (air bags, seat belts). The failure mileage was approximately 24,000.
The interior lights over the rear passenger seats and the cargo area blink when the brake pedal is pressed.this also occurs when the left turn signal is applied.the brake control module was replaced once and the issue seemed to go away.it has now returned and the dealer is telling me that the lamps need to be upgraded.
2015 chevrolet tahoe:the battery indicator goes below the midpoint, then there are different alerts on the dashboard, i.e. Stabilitrak, brake assist, battery/power saver, park assist, etc. The a/c all of sudden blows hard with a display blink off, the steering wheel also gets hard to steer and then the vehicle cuts off on its own.the vehicle cutting off has happened mostly when we're trying to park and turning at slow speeds; however, it did happen once while we were stopped at a light and trying to turn into the turning lane and it shut off.the risk is a car accident causing bodily harm and/or property damage.i see recalls for the 2015 chevrolet tahoe for this same issue, but unfortunately for whatever reason, my particular vin was not included.
Imdriving the car and randomly stops like died all the power and brakes, lights and radio go off and i have to park then the car wont start after few minutes
Vehicle equipped with i03 infotainment system. System has gone blank twice. Without system, safety hazard warnings are inoperable. There is a recall bulletin but dealer is refusing to assist.
The dome lights in second row flicker every time i press on the brakes. The dome lights also flicker occasionally when i put on the blinkers. I have complained to the dealer several times and they want to charge a high price or they act as if it is a small issue. Dealer is sports chevy in silver spring, md. This has been going on for over a year.
Upon purchase of a new 2015 tahoe i observed the possibility of a problem with the forward collision alert system (fca). I reported this to the service manager at chevrolet. On 9 april 2015 the service manager, assistant service manager, master technician, and i took the vehicle for a test drive. While driving the vehicle at moderate highway speeds i demonstrated the various phases and operation of vehicle detection. The fca has plenty of sensitivity and detects vehicles in excess of the specified distance in the owner's manual which is not an issue. At a moderate closing rate between vehicles the instrument cluster icon changes from green to amber-orange which appears nominal. However, the red alarm heads-up windshield display, rapid high-pitched beeps and red icon are never activated until a closing distance about ~3 feet before a collision. There is virtually zero reaction time for a driver to brake the vehicle at less than one car length before going to red. In addition, the system is supposed to disengage the adaptive cruise control (acc). Considering time, rate, and distance this is ineffective as the mass and kinetic energy also needs to fully disengage before a potential collision. Because of the danger of creating a traffic incident the vehicle was not tested to the level of a full collision. I was informed by the service manager that there are no service bulletins, adjustments, or software patches that may correct this deficiency by the dealer. Gm stated that the system works as designed and delivered.the gm forward collision alarm (fca) delivered product appears to have a design deficiency and is an operational safety hazard waiting to happen. If the fca does not function properly then why introduce it to a consumer regardless of gm owner manual warnings about trusting alert systems.
When you brake or use your turning signals cabin dome lights flicker.
I have a 2015 chevy tahoe.it has put my family in harms way a dozen times in the last 3 months.the vehicle shows a "stabilitrak" warning..then the steering wheel locks,the engine and all electrical shuts down,and you loose complete control over the vehicle at highway speeds.it has almost killed us.gm and our local chevy dealership are doing nothing about it.the chevy mechanics keep telling us there is nothing wrong with it.we are honeslty afraid the vehicle is going to kill us or someone else.
Onstar antenna, gps, microphone failure
Driving on the highway and city street it has happened at least 3 times in the last couple months, the park assit, stabillity track and last night the steering assist came on along with other lite lights brake, abs which i have recorded on my phone. At the moment its at the dealer, per service advisor they " had the truck on drove it and has happened of now to them, requested to keep another day to recheck tomorrow.
I bought the car in may 2014.i took it to the dealer in august 2014 per gm recall number 14126 on august 22, 2014.the recall was to reprogram the instrument cluster, even though i had not experienced any problems with the cluster.after the recall work was done, though, the screen on the dash panel operated in a different and dangerous manner.prior to the recall, i kept the screen on the digital speedometer, for obvious reasons.prior to the recall, when i would place or receive a call using the bluetooth connection, the screen would switch to a phone screen, but when the call ended, the screen immediately returned to the prior screen, showing the speedometer.ever since that recall reprogramming, however, at the end of the call, the screen stay blank except for the word "phone", so i have to play around with all of the setting options (buttons on the steering wheel) until i find the digital speedometer again.this is a distraction to my driving, and is a clear error in the reprogramming by gm (of what possible use can a blank phone screen be?).after i complained to the dealer, the dealer gave me a copy of gm bulletin#pit5285 on this very issue, dated may 6, 2014 (before i bought the car, and clearly not implemented on the car), saying that this is a "normal operating characteristic" of the car.that is a blatant falsehood, because i drove it for 3 months before the reprogramming, and "normal" was an immediate return to the prior screen, which in my case was the digital speedometer.i have tried appeals through gm, and they refuse to address this issue further.gm has created a dangerous distraction, and is ignoring the problem.it is an easy one to fix; all they have to do is to reverse their blunder from the earlier recall.

Heavy moisture is accumulating in the front left headlight with no cracks in the light. It is causing the left front turn signal to malfunction with a warning on our instrument panel. This causes a dangerous situation when when making left turns as the left turn signal is inoperative.chevrolet is not accepting ownership of the faulty design, or part, or system and wants us to assume responsibility for the quoted $1200 in repair costs just to replace one headlight assembly. The extended warranty we purchased also won't cover it. I'm finding out through research that this is a common problem on this vehicle.just over 50k miles on the vehicle!these should be recalled!

I own a 2015 tahoe that i really want to like, but the problems have been one after another! i have had my window panels replaced 3 times. My dvd player stopped working. My a/c just had to be repaired for a leaking condenser, and now my back hatch won't open due to the motor going out. Oh...and i almost forgot i have been without onstar/ gps for about a year now because that is also broken.
My 2015 chevrolet tahoe's interior lights flash brightly when the brake or left turn signal is applied.it is a very bright flash and extremely distracting at night.it happens while driving.i can imagine it is also very distracting to other drivers at night as well.it happens every time the brake or left turn signal is turned on.online research indicates other people also have this issue.it happens on all roadways at all times.but specifically at night is the safety concern.my passengers in the rear have also been complaining that it is physically stressful to them when the interior lights flash without them expecting them too.

I 2019 around march to mayi took my car to the chevrolet place in claxton, ga due to my brakes not working properly and showing "brake assist" message. They had my car in their shop five times for this matter. First three times they couldn't find anything, fourth time they replaced the wrong part and cost me almost $500. Fifth time they replaced in under the recall that was out then. Now, feb 2020 my car has brake issues again. This time my car is showing "stabilitrak" and "brake assist". They are wanting to repair a hub, a module and struts and saying that this is also due to a "side detection system". My struts were related last year before the previous brake repair. I have done my research online and seen that many vehicles from many year makes have had these issues with their vehicle and gm is avoiding the issue. I have two small children that ride in this car and one was in the car with me when my brakes didn't work properly this past issue. My car was now been in the shop for brake issues 6 times and this side detection issue i think needs tone looked into further being so many customers are having issues with this.

When turning on the brights on my 2015 chevytahoe the dash screen will flash on and off, as well as shut off the cruise control when on. In addition, the stabilitrak will flash an error message. In addition to all of this the headlights flash while driving. At night this is very scary and harmful. These electrical issues need to be corrected!

The electrical software isn't functioning properly.the radio, onstar, the door/seat belt chimes don't work.none of the electrical works in the vehicle.i was driving and when i pressed on the brake and turning, the dome lights start to flicker making it difficult to see other cars at night.the back doors don't always lock when locking them.
Interior lights flicker when the left turn signal is or the brakes are applied. This can be extremely startling and dangerous when driving at night.
All of the dome lights in my tahoe flash when i brake or put on the left turn signal. A simple google search shows that this seems to be a fairly common problem with specifically the 2015 tahoe.
Driver side seat buckle doesn't latch at all times. Also all interior overhead lights 'disco lights' flicker when the brake pedal is pressed or the turn signal is used.
Upon pressing brakes headlights flash, interior light flash, oil gage and rpms fluctuate all over. Stabilitrack sensor comes on. Upon accelerating to about 60-65the car brakes for itself. Doors lock, lights flash. Losing power steering when shifting gears
I purchased my vehicle'2015 chevy tahoe lt on july 1, 2019 i have had intermittent glitches in the electrical system. The headlights, dash lights, and mylink touchscreen will completely black out and then come back on. However, when this happens the steering wheel locks up for a split second. This is happening while driving, at speeds over 50mph, during the night and day. It was suspected to be the alternator or battery, after replacing the alternator there was no change in the behavior. It continues to happen. The service stabilitrack warning will also pop up after the power is restored. This issue is very dangerous and after reading dozens of forums it's clear this is not an isolated incident. This has happened over and over at least 20 times since july 2019, randomly and completely unexpectedly.

January 2016 i purchased a 2015 certified chevytahoe (vin [xxx]) from kuni chevrolet cadillac located 2449 fulton ave,sacramento, ca 95825. Six months later i begin experiencing major issues with the vehicle.those issues includes the following: flickering of the head lights when using turning signals and or use of rolling up the car windows, the dash board completely powering off, the vehicle completely powering off, and the sterling wheel locking during any turns. Please note that all these issues takes place while driving the vehicle at any speed. I have taken my car in multiple times for the same issues however, autonation chevrolet airport continues to state that there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. There have been multiple near fatal car accidents due to the issues with this vehicle. While driving through a green light, making a left turn the steering wheel locked up causing the car to spin in the middle of the intersection as i slammed on the brakes to which i was stuck in the intersections for approximately five mins until the locked wheel would unlock thus allowing me to move. Another occasion took place while exiting off a high way ramp to which i slammed on breaks nearly causing other cars to rear end my vehicle. I have provided autonation chevrolet airport with video proof of the unsafe issues i am experiencing. I have taken the time to express in great detail to both the general manger [xxx] at autonation chevrolet airport and the following senior advisors at the gmc/chevrolet customer assistance cooperate office [xxx]. There have been multiple case numbers issued to address my concerns and the safety of this vehicle ([xxx]). I am seeking to get out of this unsafe vehicle.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Imdriving the car and randomly stops like died all the power and brakes, lights and radio go off and i have to park then the car wont start after few minutes
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.
On january 14th, 2018 i was driving from tulare, ca to my home in pixley, ca. Half way home driving on hwy 99 i experienced that my rpms would go down and my vehicle would slow down every so often. On dash screen i had a pop up that read, 'service stability control' don't know what that means. Sometimes not being able to slow down (full control) i made it to pixley. Stopped at my sisters house, when leaving i was backing up and while backing up i noticed a mail box stand with 2 mailboxes on a steal stand. I did not have control on stopping the vehicle. I did some damage on the rear left hand side of my chevy tahoe. I carefully drove the tahoe to my home down the street, parked it and called chevy road side service. I also noticed that the break pedal moves side to side and the break lights stay on when in park.luckily nothing happened to my family and i on our way home. Obviously the vehicle is unsafe to drive.

After reading the large number of similar problems with the 2015 tahoes and after speaking with individuals in this area in business with gm, i feel even more unsafe than i have before. I was told that although numerous problems and multiple lawsuits with the 2015 tahoe's, that there has been no total recall with my specific vin number. Shocking. I did see several recalls of great concern that i had not been made aware of.it's a hardship to have my vehicle in the shop more than it is in my garage. It's a hardship to pay to rent a working, safe vehicle because the one i pay $615 monthly for is unsafe, unreliable and a liability. In conclusion, are there steps an individual is able to take to resolve situations such as this? or is this something that one would need to seek assistance of legal aide to get the ball rolling?
Our tahoe has had an issue over the past 9 months. The engine unexpectedly stalls. This has happened twice while pulling out on to a busy highway. Very frightening. We first took this to the dealer on 8/15/17. They spent hours trying to diagnose and found nothing. The stalling continued to happen occasionally. Early december the stalling occurred while pulling in to our garage. We lost all power momentarily and it would not restart this time. I disconnected the negative battery cable and then reconnected it and everything worked fine again. We took it back to the dealer on 12/8/17. Iafter researching this more it seems numerous people are having the same issue. Traction control warning comes on when the stall occurs. This time i was more insistent that they fix this and explained my wife was scared to death to drive this. This time the dealer said that they have changed the negative battery cable on other customers vehicles and that has fixed the problem. My reaction was why didn't you tell us this last time and why isn't therea recall? so far this has fixed the problem. I contacted gm and they did not give me a straight answer on this proble. Basically they said we may have had a defective part.
While driving suspension system allows car to bounce badly, as if all shocks are not working, ltz model has mag ride active suspension. This problem is found to be common on 2015 tahoe and suburbans. Many forums on web have reports of this system failure at low milage. My tahoe was purchased new and has only 71k miles, no collisions or accidents. All maintained ce performed as needed.
While driving on the highway at high speeds, 70-80 mph, steering became extremely difficult for brief periods. Often times it was immediately following actuation of the automatic window switch. It was accompanied with a lot of the loss of electrical power, a flickering control panel, abs light, stab trak, brake assist, and park assist warnings. A/c would stop, radio would turn off, the dashboard would flicker, then i would have to acknowledge all of the warnings in order to clear the issue. Steering was tough, though controllable, but i question the ability of a less experienced drive to be able to handle the same problem at those speeds. This has happened before at lower speeds, usually while backing up to park. At lower speeds the suv would cut off completely. At higher speeds, the stall was recoverable, very fortunate in this matter. Unable to get the issue to repeat at the dealership and it is very inconsistent. Usually resets itself once the car is turned off and restarted.
Stabilitrak comes on and locks the steering while driving. It has happened approx. 4 times and the dealership doesn't know why, nor have they resolved the problem. Water keeps getting in the vehicle and the dealership can't figure out where it's coming from either. They have tried 6 times
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving 20 mph making a left turn, the front driver side tire seized and the stability track warning sensor illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the tie rod fractured and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 14v246000 (steering). In addition, the interior lighting illuminated randomly, the parking assist sensor beeped for 15 minutes, and the rear camera activated independently. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures and stated that the vin was not included in a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
Driving on the highway and city street it has happened at least 3 times in the last couple months, the park assit, stabillity track and last night the steering assist came on along with other lite lights brake, abs which i have recorded on my phone. At the moment its at the dealer, per service advisor they " had the truck on drove it and has happened of now to them, requested to keep another day to recheck tomorrow.
On several occasions my care has given me a warning of stability rack issues and it will then just shut down. This has happened in the middle of turning into parking lots as well as backing into parking spots. I then have to roll down and up my driver side and passenger side windows before i can restart my vehicle.
My tahoe showed stabilitrak issues when i first bought it a year ago. I received a recall notice and took it into the nearest dealer. It was ok for awhile but the same problem started again a month ago. The truck turns on and off for about 1 second as i'm pulling into a parking space. However, now i've had issues when i try to lock it with the fob; it does nothing.i have been stranded at a business because it won't turn back on and i have to wait awhile and try to crank it. It comes back on but this has happened to me more than 3 times. Now, i was driving to work and as i pulled into my work garage, everything turned off completely and this time nothing came back on.i had to quickly turn the ignition key to the off position, thankfully i had my foot on the brake and i had to turn it back on again. I was worried because this is in the downtown area and this is a very busy city street in the morning hours. I was lucky it turned back on at all. Another time, i could not start my truck when i got off of work and i was stuck on the 3rd floor of my parking garage. I am concerned that i'll be driving and all of a sudden this tahoe will shut off while i'm in traffic.i have to travel 3 freeways to get to work and back home during heavy traffic, i'm worried about my safety and others as well because since this is an issue where the truck turns off completely, i will have no control on getting hit or hitting someone else at a high rate of speed (65 mph)
Loud popping noise from center of steering wheel. Repaired twice already. Problem keeps coming back. Steering is very hard at times. Especially at lower speeds. It feels like a 65 chevy truck with no power steering. It's scary at times.
Upon pressing brakes headlights flash, interior light flash, oil gage and rpms fluctuate all over. Stabilitrack sensor comes on. Upon accelerating to about 60-65the car brakes for itself. Doors lock, lights flash. Losing power steering when shifting gears
1: while driving the car, the second interior row lights flash every 2 minutes, it 's really annoying for the night driving.2. When i was trying to do a parallel parking, my steering wheel was locked up, this happened couple of times, and sometime, the sign of "stabilitrak off" showed on the front screen.i was also hit by the car behind me.
The alerts are deafening with no way to them down or off. Very painful to ear. They come on for every little thing. The chime volume is all the way down but they are louder than any car i rent or have ever driven.
2015 chevrolet tahoe was parked on moderately sloped driveway. Engine was not running. Vehicle transmission shifter was in "park" position. Vehicle spontaneously rolled back several feet, and crashed into another parked vehicle. Other vehicle also owned by me. Substantial damage to both vehicles. Not influenced by driver. After some research it is my belief the apparent problem with the transmission/software. I did find where there was a recall #14192 for this issue.

I purchased a used 2015 chevrolet tahoe with about 140000 miles. After driving the vehicle for about a month i began to experience problems with the radio. It had an issue playing clearly. Then the display screen started jumping and moving through different commands on its own.just recently, two months after owning the vehicle, it has started to cut off completely while i am driving it.the first time it occurred is when i was about to make a left turn.the second time it occurred, i was backing into my drive way. This time it cut off completely three times in a row. I think i purchased a bad car and now i'm stuck with it until i can get enough money to sell it or trade it for another vehicle.

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.

2015 chevy tahoe ltz: condenser and compressor went out stopping any cool or cold air flow in middle of a june. Must order parts directly from gmc. Parts estimate $3,500+ labor estimate $780. What's wrong with this picture? it's a leased vehicle. Chevrolet won't cover.same 2015 chevy tahoe- at 111k, 4,5,and 6 gear failed. Transmission failed going up hill with my 2 year old in the vehicle! chevy only covered a portion leaving me a $2k bill in april 2017.june 2016- i had taken my tahoe (leased) only to one dealership when needing any maintenance. My records show i started complaining about sunroof bellows at 20k miles and the appliqus on both driver and passenger side doors. June @68k miles i had to replace sunroof, dvd player, bellows, and internal wiring. Also, drivers side strut. I spent over 2k on my tahoe, only to notice the dvd player is not working.... Again.
Imdriving the car and randomly stops like died all the power and brakes, lights and radio go off and i have to park then the car wont start after few minutes
Brakes randomly started not working. A lot of resistance, unable to stop, unable to push brake to floor. Finally got somewhere and parked after avoiding three accidents, vehicle had to be towed. Brake booster is bad.this seems to be a common problem with the 2015 tahoe. Why hasn't this been a recall????
While drivingabout 65 mph the vehicle's engine shut off. The vehicle would not start back up for approximately ten minutes. It needed less than 20 gallons of fuel to fill it up.
At slow speeds car dies shutting off all electric power and locking us in the car. Steering wheel jerks and car dies. Backed out into highway at night two nights ago and car died in middle of road with no lights. There was enough of a hill to let the car roll off of highway or my family could have died. Car has around 60k miles on it. Have read other issues similar to this. No evidence on computer when we take it to dealer. We have had this issue happen at least five separate occasions. The last one was the worst and most dangerous.
Condenser went out.i have a little over 39,000 miles on this vehicle and just had to put it in the shop for the condenser to be replaced.i contacted 2 different dealerships and both have told me they have had to replace several defective condensers.to me, this says that gm is aware of the issue yet is making no attempt to recall the defective part.i am attaching a photo to show the leak is at a sauder line and not due to external damage.had a rock or other foreign object hit the condenser my insurance would have paid for this since it would be considered comprehensive but the tech at the dealership told me that it was not due to external damage, it was defective.the dark spot at the bottom of the photo is where the leak was & it was coming from that seam/sauder line.
Our tahoe has had an issue over the past 9 months. The engine unexpectedly stalls. This has happened twice while pulling out on to a busy highway. Very frightening. We first took this to the dealer on 8/15/17. They spent hours trying to diagnose and found nothing. The stalling continued to happen occasionally. Early december the stalling occurred while pulling in to our garage. We lost all power momentarily and it would not restart this time. I disconnected the negative battery cable and then reconnected it and everything worked fine again. We took it back to the dealer on 12/8/17. Iafter researching this more it seems numerous people are having the same issue. Traction control warning comes on when the stall occurs. This time i was more insistent that they fix this and explained my wife was scared to death to drive this. This time the dealer said that they have changed the negative battery cable on other customers vehicles and that has fixed the problem. My reaction was why didn't you tell us this last time and why isn't therea recall? so far this has fixed the problem. I contacted gm and they did not give me a straight answer on this proble. Basically they said we may have had a defective part.
During a low speed left turn across oncoming lanes of traffic, my 2015 tahoe had a complete loss of all power and stopped right in the middle of oncoming traffic. Luckily oncoming traffic was at a distance that they were able to notice my tahoe had died blocking their lanes, and they corrected their path to go around. We could have been injured at the least if oncoming traffic had not noticed that our vehicle died. I purchased this tahoe used 3 weeks ago and this has happened 5 times since. After investigating on the internet i located post saying this issue has affected over 1 million other 2015 tahoes.

4th and most dangerous of 4 incidents in 3 weeks of ownership of 2015 chevy tahoe lt. Without driver instruction or interference the 2015 tahoe shifted itself into 4wd despite dial on 2wd. Steering difficult, car jerked, engine revved differently and trouble in reverse. No warning signals on display and i didn't know what was happening. Drove .5 mi., pulled over restarted, and then "4 wheel drive, dismiss" on display over steering wheel (no seat vibration, flashing lights as with lane drifting). Tried to "undismiss", consulted manual and ensured dial was in 2wd. Cut ignition off, restarted, same light. Test drove another 1 mi. To see if warning display malfunction...car jerked and steering as if non-power steering. Called dealership (rick hendrick's city chevrolet, charlotte, nc) and svs tech had never heard of such an issue and consulted other techs (on hold 15 min). Finally svs mgr said car unsafe to drive but to drive it home 'slowly" and they would tow to dealership and get me a loaner. Svs mgr, on 3rd phone call after i threatened to notify ntsb, said he was calling a gm "program mgr" to see about my car's "dangerous issue". After the car rolled when ignition turned off (radio and dash lights off too) and it hit a dumpster b/c we had not put it in park, yet ignition still turned off (luckily no one hurt but significant paint damage), key fob wouldn't program seats/mirrors, mylink wouldn't pair to my phone and now to learn there is a recall for rolling b/c car shifts into neutral? i am still driving loaner, no word from svs mgr, i refuse to drive the car again and gsm said i'd have to go to gm direct for a "buy back". The 1-800-222-1020# he gave me useless). Help!

I have 2015 chevy tahoe that needs a new ac condenser. I have read hundreds of complaints online regarding this issue and the defective part where the seals crack requiring replacement. On top of all that, its not covered under warranty and the part is back ordered until september/october 2017. So no ac in the summer time. Brilliant. This should be a recall. The part is failing with no fixable alternative. Please investigate. This should not be happening with 1 and 2 year old vehicles. The dealer is charging close to $2000 to replace on top of all else. Please research the problem and hold them accountable.
While driving 10mph or less the vehicle will not stop the brakes are very are and stuff will not allow you to stop nor while reversing! i've almost hit someone walking and someone car! i ran into our industrial fan in our garage because i couldn't stop. We almost lost our lives twice while my 7 year old daughter was in there becywe couldn't break. I've called dealerships and gm bout problems and they stated that they've had several complaints about it but it's not recall and that can not reimburse me especially if i ket a third party fix it. I'm unemployed and pay a note on this vehicle. I've had problems since i purchased it brand new! also the rear camera never work it barely work it's a very small one the dealership said they will install the regular one in that every tahoe has because mine has a defect and it's not the touchscreen that all tables have and no parts for this one but gm wouldn't agree with it they've done everything to the back up camera and it keep going in and out and has to have updated my link radio. That's dangerous.as well as the brake cable keep slipping and causing major sqeaking when going over bumps speed bumps and etc. And the motor mounts still not fixed i've taking it several times about the major shake and vibration from it while at lights or still and they've changed them out shaved them down still no help so they were still waiting on gm to come out with a part to fix it. My warranty has expired nowthis all needs to be fixed and replaced i have a daughter and we are scared that something will happen. The brake issue had been going on for a year and eventually it gotten worse and couldn't stop at all. Brake pump and vacuum pump.what does it take for us to loose our lives for it to be fixed.

Engine service light came on may 7th during a trip which made the vehicle run sporadically and missing which then caused the traction control light to come on as well.when we took the vehicle to the dealership they said that a lifter had stuck and it had ruined the camshaft.repairs would be 5800.00.we took the vehicle to another dealership and they gave us a better price and said that two other vehicles were in the shop in front of our vehicle for the same issue and some were newer 2019 or later vehicles and that this was a common problem because of defective parts.they said that the new parts were better and should work without the same problem.we do not have our vehicle back yet, i expect it back in a couple days because they had to order the parts.if this is a common problem, the dealerships know what is wrong and how to fix the problem, why is chevrolet not letting owners know and take care of the problem before they fail and we end up with a large invoice.i had a 2007 tahoe that had an oil consumptionproblem that everyone knew about and no one tried to get the problem fixed.this tahoe was purchased to take on trips.the vehicle stays in a garage full time, only has 38700 miles on the engine and i have had nothing but problems since it was purchased.during one trip two spark plugs were dead, had to be replaced.one trip the battery was dead so i had to get a battery maintainer and keep on the engine battery.trip to florida the front window leaked and after that one stationary side window leaked.one trip the rear air conditioner did not work the first time it was used because it was not grounded.i have already decided to never buy another chevrolet product in the future even though i have not used anything else since getting out of college in 1973.enough is enough.

My tahoe just started to have a vibration issues at speeds for 60 to 75mph the whole cabin shakes and also a wind noise coming from the roof at speeds at 80 mph or higher my mileage is 21000 i get headaches when driving my chevy tahoe.
The entertainment systems was pulled down by my kids to watch a movie.when the dvd screen was pulled down it completely blocked the driver rear view mirror.as such....you cannot use the entertainment system and drive at the same time in the vehicle.
Upon purchase of a new 2015 tahoe i observed the possibility of a problem with the forward collision alert system (fca). I reported this to the service manager at chevrolet. On 9 april 2015 the service manager, assistant service manager, master technician, and i took the vehicle for a test drive. While driving the vehicle at moderate highway speeds i demonstrated the various phases and operation of vehicle detection. The fca has plenty of sensitivity and detects vehicles in excess of the specified distance in the owner's manual which is not an issue. At a moderate closing rate between vehicles the instrument cluster icon changes from green to amber-orange which appears nominal. However, the red alarm heads-up windshield display, rapid high-pitched beeps and red icon are never activated until a closing distance about ~3 feet before a collision. There is virtually zero reaction time for a driver to brake the vehicle at less than one car length before going to red. In addition, the system is supposed to disengage the adaptive cruise control (acc). Considering time, rate, and distance this is ineffective as the mass and kinetic energy also needs to fully disengage before a potential collision. Because of the danger of creating a traffic incident the vehicle was not tested to the level of a full collision. I was informed by the service manager that there are no service bulletins, adjustments, or software patches that may correct this deficiency by the dealer. Gm stated that the system works as designed and delivered.the gm forward collision alarm (fca) delivered product appears to have a design deficiency and is an operational safety hazard waiting to happen. If the fca does not function properly then why introduce it to a consumer regardless of gm owner manual warnings about trusting alert systems.
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.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving, the contact was alerted that there was a gps malfunction. The contact found a service bulletin for the failure that expired in 2017, but the contact was never notified. The bulletin indicated that the manufacturer was repairing the gps at that time.

Weseloh chevrolet (5335 paseo del norte, carlsbad, ca 92008, (760) 208-1943) was contacted and claimed to know nothing about the service bulletin. The manufacturer had not been contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 85,000.
When the radio is tuned to certain radio channels, there is a pressure that forms in the vehicle which is similar to when flying and your ears won't pop.the vehicle engine does not need to be running.the pressure is unbearable at all volumes causing terrible dizziness and unending pain from temple to temple.
Our dome lights flicker when break is pushed, i've seen many have had this issue,
While driving various speeds, the interior lighting flickered suddenly.
All of the dome lights in my tahoe flash when i brake or put on the left turn signal. A simple google search shows that this seems to be a fairly common problem with specifically the 2015 tahoe.
My 2015 chevrolet tahoe ltz's headlights have developed condensation inside of them. The driver side light has an inch of standing water in it and now the turn signal and led running light no longer work on that side. Chevrolet said it will cost over $2,000 to replace both headlights. I know several other tahoe owners that have the same problem and our local police department has also had to replace headlights in several of their patrol tahoes. Chevy needs to issue a recall on their defective product!!!
2015 chevrolet tahoe. Everytime the brake pedal was depressed, the interior lights in the vehicle would illuminate and flash causing blindness at night. This happens when stationary or in motion. Spoke to dealer who stated they never heard of issue. Provided them with a possible tsb #p11268 from alldata. This has occurred at least 50 times
Heavy moisture is accumulating in the front left headlight with no cracks in the light.it is causing the left front turn signal to malfunction with a warning on control panel.this is dangerous to driving when making left turns with no front turn signal and will cause an accident eventually to some owners who cannot afford to get it fixed.chevy will not take ownership of faulty design, part, or system and wants owner of car to assume responsibility for repair costs which are very high on these faulty parts.the extended warranty we purchased does not want to pay for repair either why should the owner who has no control over the installation of defective system have to pay for it ?please help save lives from potential crashes.
The interior brake lights constantly flashing when driving.the issue makes the vehicle unsafe to drive at night.
While operating vehicle, the dome light flashes when applying brake or turning on left turn signal.
Not long after i purchased my tahoe new i noticed moisture in the headlights, more so on the passenger side. I had the vehicle brought in for an ac recall and the dealer didn't notice or fix the problem. After the warranty expired i started getting accumulatingwater in the light assembly which would corrode the blinker holder making it inoperable. So i either have to change the blinker holder or replace the entire light assembly. I feel like the dealer should have noticed the issue when it was in the shop for the ac recall.
The electrical software isn't functioning properly.the radio, onstar, the door/seat belt chimes don't work.none of the electrical works in the vehicle.i was driving and when i pressed on the brake and turning, the dome lights start to flicker making it difficult to see other cars at night.the back doors don't always lock when locking them.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving various speeds at night, the exterior lighting was too dim because of an invisible line above the dashboard. The dealer adjusted the headlights, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 15. Updated 10/22/2014*lj updated 4/1/2015the consumer stated the hid lighting system presented a visible line approximately 8-10 inches above the dashboard, which presented a very darkened view of the road ahead. As a result, the driver was hindered greatly in judging what was i front of hi,. When the high beams were applied, the vision was greatly improved.updated 06/24/15.
Interior lights flickering when brake pedal is applied -this is both distracting and dangerous to the driver as this happens when we are in motion when the brake pedal is applied.i have seen other complaints online so wondering why there is not a recall.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving at night, the low beam headlights failed to illuminate brightly and prevented the contact from seeing the road clearly. The vehicle was taken to roger dean chevrolet (located at 101 sw pine island rd, cape coral, fl 33991, (239) 574-3326) who stated that the headlights were manufactured in that manner. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 45,000.
All interior lights that consist of, front dome lights, both rear reading light fixtures that are dual lights that have left and right side lamps flash for a split second each time the left turn signal is used or each time you step on the brake pedal.very distracting during evening or night time driving.this happens weather the vehicle is stopped stationary or driving.
Vehicles dome lights flash when applying breaks..this also happens when you use your turning signals.. This is a hazard.
My tahoe showed stabilitrak issues when i first bought it a year ago. I received a recall notice and took it into the nearest dealer. It was ok for awhile but the same problem started again a month ago. The truck turns on and off for about 1 second as i'm pulling into a parking space. However, now i've had issues when i try to lock it with the fob; it does nothing.i have been stranded at a business because it won't turn back on and i have to wait awhile and try to crank it. It comes back on but this has happened to me more than 3 times. Now, i was driving to work and as i pulled into my work garage, everything turned off completely and this time nothing came back on.i had to quickly turn the ignition key to the off position, thankfully i had my foot on the brake and i had to turn it back on again. I was worried because this is in the downtown area and this is a very busy city street in the morning hours. I was lucky it turned back on at all. Another time, i could not start my truck when i got off of work and i was stuck on the 3rd floor of my parking garage. I am concerned that i'll be driving and all of a sudden this tahoe will shut off while i'm in traffic.i have to travel 3 freeways to get to work and back home during heavy traffic, i'm worried about my safety and others as well because since this is an issue where the truck turns off completely, i will have no control on getting hit or hitting someone else at a high rate of speed (65 mph)
Back interior lights flash on when driving, very dangerous at night. Does it when use breaks. Moving or stationary. All the time.
1: while driving the car, the second interior row lights flash every 2 minutes, it 's really annoying for the night driving.2. When i was trying to do a parallel parking, my steering wheel was locked up, this happened couple of times, and sometime, the sign of "stabilitrak off" showed on the front screen.i was also hit by the car behind me.
Interior lights flicker when the left turn signal is or the brakes are applied. This can be extremely startling and dangerous when driving at night.
The interior lights flicker whenever the vehicle's brakes or left blinder is used.the flickering causes distraction for the driver and passengers.flickering hurts eyes, in addition causing headaches and potential for seizures.flickering occurs when the vehicle is in motion and when the breaks are used and/or the left blinker is turned on.this is especially disruptive with inner city driving.
Was parking and the service brake turn hard as a rock. So at a slow speed drive around the lot to found the service brake with no warning would just stop working. Like the brake booster lost vacuum and needed time to build back up. Had towed to dealer. Mileage 37,500 give or take 100 miles at no time did any warning lights come on . Same thing happed at the dealer then tech and service writer drove it . Also right side drl seems to fail in every one i see
Cracks are appearing in my tahoe 2015 both headlights (right and left). On investigating the issue by touching the cracks and it is found that headlight is cracking from inside. Most probably material or manufacturing fault.i went to the gm service center in riyadh to show them the issue and they did nothing to solve the issue and even saying this is the first time we (gm) received such complaint. Gm dealer even closed my case without notifying the outcome of the issue and possible resolution. There was no accident that caused this issue and cracks are appearing in the both headlights and almost at same positions on both headlights.
While the vehicle is in motion, and the interior dome lights are off, i press the brake pedal, and the dome lights flicker very intensely for a half-second. This flickering also happens when the left turn signal is activated. It is a very bright flicker and could cause an accident due to momentary distraction or light-blinding.
At slow speeds car dies shutting off all electric power and locking us in the car. Steering wheel jerks and car dies. Backed out into highway at night two nights ago and car died in middle of road with no lights. There was enough of a hill to let the car roll off of highway or my family could have died. Car has around 60k miles on it. Have read other issues similar to this. No evidence on computer when we take it to dealer. We have had this issue happen at least five separate occasions. The last one was the worst and most dangerous.
I purchased my vehicle'2015 chevy tahoe lt on july 1, 2019 i have had intermittent glitches in the electrical system. The headlights, dash lights, and mylink touchscreen will completely black out and then come back on. However, when this happens the steering wheel locks up for a split second. This is happening while driving, at speeds over 50mph, during the night and day. It was suspected to be the alternator or battery, after replacing the alternator there was no change in the behavior. It continues to happen. The service stabilitrack warning will also pop up after the power is restored. This issue is very dangerous and after reading dozens of forums it's clear this is not an isolated incident. This has happened over and over at least 20 times since july 2019, randomly and completely unexpectedly.
Poor lighting from low beam headlights. Lights don't illuminate high enough to see more than 40-50 feet in front of a vehicle which is dangerous in pursuit situations.
Condensation collecting inside of both headlight covers. I have paid $200.00 for a turn signal replacement. Now getting another failure warning on same headlight and the dlr is out on the opposite side of vehicle. I was told dealer it would cost 2000.00 to replace both gaskets. Gm has issued service bulletin stating the problem could be caused by the vehicle being exposed to rain?? or car washing. I noticed condensation while parked in garage
An issue that i have had since the used vehicle was purchased in 2016superior interior led lighting, however::activate left turn signal or step on the brakes, these interior bright led cabin lights flash brightly and intermittently.stopped at an intersection, it's embarrassing, interior led lighting continues to flash as if there was a strobe within the interior cabin, when my foot on brake and or left turn signal. Hazard / 4-way activate the interior lights also.at night distraction for myself as an operator, safety issue- reflection off the windshield during hours of darkness, annoyance to all passengers 'disco car' black electrical tape was placedover the mid-cabin interior light, youngest son hates to ride in the vehicle because of the lighting issue.visible and obvious to other motorists during hours of darkness when stopped aside, front and/or rear of the vehicle.dealership ' $180.00 to fix, also that a service bulletin exists, advised to wait for re-call - back for re-call approximately 1 year later, service rep stated, still no re-call.i was advised at that time, by the "same" service rep in the service department, at the same dealership, that they, (chevrolet) are currently un-aware of any such issue with the interior lighting. I have been a police officer for nearly 40 years assigned to traffic division.re-constructionist, with extensive accident reconstruction training and investigations / 15 years certified through cvsa.previous unrelated re-call notices, chevrolet is claiming a cause of 'potential customer annoyance', let me tell you, it's annoying.recalls again about other unrelated issues, chevrolet claims to be 'concerned about your safety and continued satisfaction with our products' i'm also concerned about my safety as well as my passengers.numerous complaints in regards to this issue are posted
When brakes are pressed or turn signal used the middle interior lights flash
Vehicle would not start,needed to jump start. Once running ,climate controls and fan volume would not respond. Heat at 90,fan on full.engine light flashing on off.dash lights suddenly dimmed to low.taken to dealer,had vehicle for 4 days.dealer replaced battery.one week after battery was replaced,experienced the interior cabin lights would flash when brake pedal was applied.instrument panel lights suddenly go from bright to dim.at night and day when turn signal activated ,the interior cabin lights flash on as well as when driver applied brake.very distracting and dangerous in particular when operating at night.notified dealer,returned vehicle for full diagnostics,had it for one week,no issues found. Picked up vehicle interior cabin lights still flash when brake is applied.slight movement and clicking on drivers seat only while operating at any speed.notified dealer.again to document.advised i would be filing a safety complaint,since dealer nor gm could not resolve issues.occured june,july,aug,sep,oct, 2016,38000. Miles.
My 2015 chevrolet tahoe's interior lights flash brightly when the brake or left turn signal is applied.it is a very bright flash and extremely distracting at night.it happens while driving.i can imagine it is also very distracting to other drivers at night as well.it happens every time the brake or left turn signal is turned on.online research indicates other people also have this issue.it happens on all roadways at all times.but specifically at night is the safety concern.my passengers in the rear have also been complaining that it is physically stressful to them when the interior lights flash without them expecting them too.
Interior dome lights flash when stepping on brakes,and when activating left turn signal.hazard during darkness,nuisance during daylight .
Interior lights flash randomly.this is very distracting when driving at night.it occurs day and nighttime but is most noticeable when driving at night.it has been occurring ever since the vehicle was bought in sep 2014.
First off, my dome lights. They flicker on and off every time i hit my breaks or every time i turn my left blinker on. Secondly, my air conditioner! i live in a very hot and humid state. I have already fixed the a/c in my tahoe once at the beginning of the summer. Now i am having the exact same issue as i was then.
The interior lights flash while driving.
The left headlight assembly had moisture and the left turn front turn signal quit working causing an error code.the dealer said there was no recall so i had a body shop replace the entire assembly.approximately 2 months and there is moisture in the new left headlight.this is a safety issue.
The dome lights in second row flicker every time i press on the brakes. The dome lights also flicker occasionally when i put on the blinkers. I have complained to the dealer several times and they want to charge a high price or they act as if it is a small issue. Dealer is sports chevy in silver spring, md. This has been going on for over a year.
While driving at night there is a distinct dark section or line across the upper one-half to 3/4 of the windshield.the only way to see at all is to duck your head under it, or turn the headlights on bright.i have reported it to the dealer and he has no information on this issue.nothing has been done to correct it to date.
Air conditioning does not work with only 37000 miles and interior lights flash every time i touch the brake pedal or turn signal.
Every time i press the brake or use my directional all the interior lights flash. Its extremely distracting when i drive at night. I did't know i could report this here. I spoke with my dealer last year and he told me it would be very involved to fix since my warranty was up. He said if it doesnt bother you that much it would be better to leave it. :(
Braking systems not working properly.the vehicle failed to stop when applying the brake pedal.all brake pads are good; brake calipers are new; brake fluid is at max.i replaced everything i found online, but the issue is there on the vehicle. Dome light issue:the interior dome lights on the vehicle flashes constantly while driving.
Interior dome lights flashes during night driving causing the driver to lose vision during night driving.
Every time i press my brake or use my left turn signal, my interior dome lights flash. It is very annoying and a safety issue at night.
The front left headlight is in excellent condition but fills with condensation upon washing the vehicle and during rain storms.when driving at night under these conditions visibility is poor.this is a safety hazard and needs to be rectified by gm with a safety recall.
I got a message on my message center telling me that my left turn signal had a failure.it would start blinking fast.i took it to a parts store to get a bulb to replace ur but was told that i would have to take it to the dealership.took it there and was told that the socket had melted and that i would have to replace the assembly.i just read where other owners who have chevrolet said experienced the same problem.
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
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that at start-up and while driving, fuel leaked from the vehicle near the driver's side rear of the vehicle. Additionally, there was a strong fuel odor inside and outside of the vehicle. The vehicle was not taken to be diagnosed nor repaired. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer were made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 82,000.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving approximately 65 mph, fuel was leaking from the fuel tank. The vehicle was taken to weseloh chevrolet in carlsbad, california, 760-438-1001 where it was diagnosed that a fuel feeder line was defective and needed replacement. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 84,000.
Large fuel leak coming from line that rubs body above gas tank. Gas was pouring out causing a very hazardous condition. When noticed vehicle was stationary in a parking lot. Gm knows that there have been issues as there is a tsb # 17-na-304 dated september of 2017. A quick google search reveals dozens of like reports with one causing a complete loss of vehicle due to fire. This is of major concern as loss of life from this engineering failure is high. Children could be restrained in car seats in rear of vehicle just above fuel for fire.
Vehicle did not want to start when cold. Would take 2-3 times to get engine to turn over. After driving, the smell of gasoline was undeniable. Brought vehicle in to local mechanic and he discovered the fuel hose had chaffed and fuel was spraying out and puddling on top of fuel tank.he dropped fuel tank and replaced fuel line. Fuel line that was removed had no protection on it. Replacement part had a corrugated loom protecting fuel line.i am still in possession of damaged fuel line in question.
High pressure fuel line was leaking due to rubbing on he chassis. When i mentioned it was a design flaw as alot of people complained the service manager said it was because something was chewing on the plastic but as you see in the pics. That is not the case and even the service man said it was not chewed on.
Started to notice a fuel smell/odor, which after several days 3 to 4 got worse, then my tahoe started having problems starting, i then seen fuel leaking from the driver's side behind driver's door and below driver's side passenger door, which is where my granddaughter's car seat is located, i inspected where the leak appeared to be coming from, i could tell it was coming from on topof the fuel tank running down the side of the tank leaving a puddle of fuel, the repair shop said they believe the leak is coming from the fuel line and would pull the fuel tank down and replace the fuel line which is going to be a expensive repair. This is a serious safety hazard and should be covered by general motors corporation, i am concerned that my tahoe could have caught on fire while driving without no warning indicator light. I will keep invoices from repair shop and the faulty factory fuel line. I fear this problem could very well cause loss of life or a very serious accident while driving that i believe general motors is aware of.
My vehicle started leaking gas while it was turned on while it was moving and stationary. A mechanic found that the fuel line developed a pin sized hole as the source of the problem. After some online research i found that this is a problem for many with my vehicle.
After reading the large number of similar problems with the 2015 tahoes and after speaking with individuals in this area in business with gm, i feel even more unsafe than i have before. I was told that although numerous problems and multiple lawsuits with the 2015 tahoe's, that there has been no total recall with my specific vin number. Shocking. I did see several recalls of great concern that i had not been made aware of.it's a hardship to have my vehicle in the shop more than it is in my garage. It's a hardship to pay to rent a working, safe vehicle because the one i pay $615 monthly for is unsafe, unreliable and a liability. In conclusion, are there steps an individual is able to take to resolve situations such as this? or is this something that one would need to seek assistance of legal aide to get the ball rolling?
Tahoe is used to commute to owner's profession roughly 20 miles every week day. One day after driving home, tahoe had strong fuel odor while sitting in owner's garage. It would then also have similar odor when initially starting the car. Brought the tahoe to blasius chevrolet in waterbury, ct. Tahoe is under 60,000 miles and still under powertrain warranty. They stated that "fuel line chewed threw buy (sic) mouse." owner asked for a picture of the pinhole leak cause by the mouse. Image (which is attached) illustrates damage that could not possibly be caused by an animal. It is smoothly rubbed down and shows no chew marks and is in one specific spot. Dealer refused to use warranty to cover the repair, even though its not normal wear and tear, could not have been caused by an animal and not related to anything done to the car by owner. Only work that has been completed on the tahoe has been by the dealership. This seems to be a recurring issue with 2015 tahoes around the 60k miles mark. The fuel line is worn down by rubbing against something near the fuel tank. This is a manufacturing defect and expensive repair that should not be covered by the consumer considering a fuel line is not a part that should "get worn down" over time. Fuel leaking on the engine could have been catastrophic if it was not caught in time.
I had a system failure light that came on my 2015 tahoe. When i brought it to voss chevrolet dealership in centerville ohio, they told me that my high pressure fuel pump was failing and that i would need to replace it along with the fuel lines. Upon further research i learned that gm had issued a recall bulletin (tsb 14858) in 2015 for select 2015 tahoes. The tahoe's affected included vehicles with an 8 cylinder engine (rpo l83 or l86). This describes my vehicle but the dealership said gm did not include my vin in the recall, so they could not fix it under the tsb recall. I called gm directly and they also said my vehicle vin was not part of the recall. They were not very clear as to which vins they decided to include when all of the tahoe's were made on the same production line. This is a safety issue and clearly all of the vins should be included in the recall of the high pressure fuel pump and the hoses. Gm called the dealership and paid a portion of the expenses, but i still had to pay more than $300 out of pocket for an issue that is known to gm.
We have been noticing an excessive fresh fuel smell which we believe to be coming from the exhaust when we start our vehicle to warm up prior to driving in the morning. Also sounds like exhaust is missing a little at idle. Took it in and dealer could not find any codes relating to our problem. They did however find a tsb 14858 for possible high pressure pump leak. They replaced high pressure fuel pump and seals with new line and test drove vehicle. They state vehicle is ok. We just picked up vehicle so have not had a chance to see if the problem of smelling excessive gas is still present or not. Will confirm in the morning
The fuel is leaking from the top of the fuel tank. It only leaks if the vehicle is running. This an obvious safety hazard as the leaking gas is near the hot exhaust and electrical wires.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While operating the vehicle, the odor of fuel was present inside the cabin. Upon inspection, it was discovered that fuel was leaking from under the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to hubert vester chevrolet(3717 raleigh rd pkwy w., wilson, nc) where it was diagnosed that the fuel lines were damaged and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 80,000. The vin was not available.
Car has a fuel leak when car is turn on park and motion. But does not leak fuel when off
I had strong smell of gas one night and my first thought was maybe may gas cans but after put them outside the smell continues, so then i notice some start delay on my 2015 tahoe and put the 2 together i knew i had some fuel leak (very dangerous situation inside my garage with all my family sleeping) i took the truck to the shop and they found the leak on gas pressure line. Replace and done $437 after 2 days.
Fuel starts leaking fromgas tank about 2 minutes into the car gets turned on
Noticed a strong gas odor when exiting the vehicle. Upon looking the at the vehicle from top to bottom i discovered that there was gas dripping from the gas tank. Took the vehicle to the dealer, and was told that a fuel line on top of the tank was cracked and needed to be replaced. Since this seemed like a pretty serious safety issue i did some online research hoping to discover a recall, but didn't find any open ones. What i did find was a lot of people saying that this same issue had happened to them, and is a result of a design flaw where the fuel line on top of the tank is too close the the chassis and over time vibrations wear a hole into the line. Since this is such a serious safety issue i feel that that it should be taken care of by the manufacturer.
Leaking fuel lines from rubbing on fuel tank.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving at a slow speed and making a left turn, the vehicle stalled. The contact stated that the vehicle lost electrical power. The vehicle was unable to restart and the doors would not open. After approximately thirty minutes, the vehicle was able to be restarted. The contact stated that the failure previously occurred and that the high pressure fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The dealer diagnosed that the amperage from the battery was insufficient, which caused the vehicle to stall. The battery was replaced. The contact was concerned that the dealer was unable to verify if the failure was fully remedied and if the vehicle was safe to be driven. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 52,500.
Fuel line above gas tank wore a hole spraying a significant amount of gas around rear exhaust and brake rotors. The hole in the fuel line was due to not being properly protected from normal wear and vibration where it made contact with the gas tank assembly and vehicle frame. The hole occurred after very normal use of the vehicle at around 81,000 miles. The car has been used 99% of time on city streets and highways.
Upon returning from work , my wife complained of a strong odor of fuel in and outside of the vehicle. After inspecting the engine, interior, and exterior of the vehicle a small running fuel leak was discovered beneath the vehicle on the driver side, immediately forward of the fuel tank . The leak left a small puddle of fuel under the vehicle, which continued to leak until fuel pressure dissipated 5-10 minutes later. Upon inspection bymechanics at my local gmdealer , it was found that a hole was worn into the fuel supply (pressure) line due to chafing and rubbing of the line against the structure (frame) of the vehicle . This problem occurred any time the vehicle was running, whether it was in motion or not. The problem occurred on10/07/2020. The cause of this problem was due to the fuel line being insufficiently protected from chafing and vibration. The new fuel line came with a sleeve protecting the affected area. This appears to be an engineering deficiency on 2015 chevrolet tahoe models.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving various speeds, the interior lighting flickered when the driver's side turn signal was activated. When the brake pedal was depressed, the interior lighting would also flicker. The vehicle was taken to whiteside chevrolet buick gmc cadillac (located at 50714 national rd e, st clairsville, oh 43950, (740) 695-0211) where it was diagnosed that the failure was due to an electrical issue. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified and provided case number: 8-4804205228. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. When the brake pedal was depressed, the led strobe lights in the second and third row seats flashed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure occurred on numerous occasions. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 4,000.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. Everytime the brake pedal was depressed, the interior lights in the vehicle would illuminate. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing; however, the details of the diagnosis could not be provided at the time. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vin and failure mileage were unknown.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving approximately 60 mph, the dome light flickered on and off. The contact stated that the failure occurred for the past two months every time the vehicle was driven at night. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact stated that there was a manufacturer communications number (pi1268b) in reference to the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
When driving at slow speeds (restaurant drive-thru, stop and go traffic) i often find myself having difficulty pushing the brake pedal, as it is extremely hard to push down the pedal and the car will not come to a stop for 2-3 feet. I feel a strong vibration during this and a low pitched crunching sound, and cannot push the brake down.i am afraid i will have a collision.i did the 2019 recall in which the dealer recalibrated something with the brakes. But it i continuing to have problems, i took it back to the dealership to test the vacuum pump, but they said the "testing was normal" and they were not willing to drive it long enough to replicate the problem i was having, saying that it was worn rotors and brake pads that were causing the issue.i know what the car feels like when the rotors/pads need changing, and i do have slight vibration when braking at high speeds, but never where i have increased brake effort.only at slow speeds and if i am pressing the brake multiple times.
Brakes randomly started not working. A lot of resistance, unable to stop, unable to push brake to floor. Finally got somewhere and parked after avoiding three accidents, vehicle had to be towed. Brake booster is bad.this seems to be a common problem with the 2015 tahoe. Why hasn't this been a recall????
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact parked the vehicle at a fuel station. When he returned, the contact noticed that the vehicle had rolled down the street and crashed into a four wheeler. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for the body repairs. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired for the transmission failure. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and did not assist. The failure mileage was 84,000. *dt
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that the gear was stuck in four-wheel drive. The dealer repaired the vehicle by downloading computer software, but the failure recurred twice. The contact stated that the failure occurred after the vehicle was repaired according to nhtsa campaign number: 14v374000 (power train). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 10,000.
Since purchasing my vehicle in 2016 i have had multiple issues. I have always noticed a drip of oil in my garage that wasn't consistent and when telling my dealership about it they stated they would look into it and found nothing. I was driving down the road and the side door black fascia flew off, the dealership replaced 3 stating it was still under the 34k warranty. I had requested they replace/secure the 4th and was told it was fine and didn't need replacing. I returned for an oil change about 6 months later and reported the one that was not replaced is now loose and was told by the dealership i was out of my warranty period and would be charged an hour labor as well as parts, costing roughly $120.00. I then had my ac go out in summer of 2019 and had that replaced supposedly a recall. When i took my car to the dealership for an oil change in fall 2019 i mentioned my car was not stopping properly while braking and they informed me there was a current recall that would fix the issue and that was performed. I was still noticing the braking issues. In nov.2019 i started to experience misfiring with the transmission and not shifting correctly. I made an appointment with the dealership and on the way to the dealership it worsened and i had to get it towed. I was informed i would not get a loaner car as all of theirs were out to people with parts required without an eta from gm. I was called 4 days later as i had not heard back and was told my car needed a replacement transmission as well as a new vacuum pump as this had failed and is the reason for the hard braking. The transmission was replaced and i was told to pick up my vehicle because the vacuum pump is on back-order without an eta and "i still have my abs that will assist with stopping".
I received a combination of three error messages on the same day and they show every time i start the vehicle. Ā€œstabilitrakā€¯ service needed, ā€œsteering assist is reduced, drive with careā€¯ action required message, and ā€œrear parking assist symbols unavailableā€¯ error message when in reverse. Causes hard/lurch changes in gears. Affects the control of the vehicle and the ability to drive in a straight line.
My 2015 chevy tahoe a/c is not working.the condenser part is on back order for 6 months or more from the gm factory plant.meanwhile, i can't drive the car because i have breathing problems.gm told me all there tahoes have this problem and they do not have the part available yet.
Transmission completely went out at 104,000 miles, requiring new transmission.entire air conditioning system had to be replaced today the brakes stopped working suddenly- waiting for diagnosis. Vehicle had to be towed. Almost in three different accidents trying to get somwhere and get stopped. Catylatic convertor needs to be replaced and currently has three codes related to it showing. This vehicle has been problem after problem since day one.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While at a stop and attempted to make a turn, the vehicle lost power without warning. The vehicle restarted after a couple of minutes and was taken to tom hesser chevrolet (570-343-1221, located at 1001 n washington ave, scranton, pa 18509). The contact was provided a loaner vehicle. The vehicle was diagnosed and the battery was replaced, but the failure recurred. The battery was jumpstarted and the vehicle was taken back to the same dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and did not assist. The failure mileage was approximately 36,000.
2015 chevrolet tahoe was parked on moderately sloped driveway. Engine was not running. Vehicle transmission shifter was in "park" position. Vehicle spontaneously rolled back several feet, and crashed into another parked vehicle. Other vehicle also owned by me. Substantial damage to both vehicles. Not influenced by driver. After some research it is my belief the apparent problem with the transmission/software. I did find where there was a recall #14192 for this issue.
Vacuum pump failed on freeway at low speed.chevrolet has acknowledged there is a problem but only offers replacement for under 70,000 miles. I am at 80,000 miles and had to pay $800 on my vacation trip.
At slow speeds car dies shutting off all electric power and locking us in the car. Steering wheel jerks and car dies. Backed out into highway at night two nights ago and car died in middle of road with no lights. There was enough of a hill to let the car roll off of highway or my family could have died. Car has around 60k miles on it. Have read other issues similar to this. No evidence on computer when we take it to dealer. We have had this issue happen at least five separate occasions. The last one was the worst and most dangerous.
My 2015 tahoe began hesitating when i pressed the gas pedal leading me to believe i had purchased some bad gasoline.this continued for two weeks without any warning lights coming on. I decided to take the vehicle to be checked by an automotive place and as i was driving a warning light finally came on. They hooked it to computer and referred me to a transmission specialist located three miles away. The car broke down in a construction zone on the way to the transmission shop. My 2015 tahoe only had 107,000 miles on it and the transmission had to be replaced. The transmission shop stated that they had seen about four other tahoes of the same year that had to have transmissions replaced.it ended up costing me $3300.00 to replace the transmission. I think had a warning light been activated two weeks before i may could have taken it to the shop earlier and had it repaired instead of replaced.this seems to me way too soon to have to replace a transmission in an automobile.
Car was vibrating when getting above 45 miles per hour. Thought wheels needed to be balanced. Once balanced,pulled trailer and vibration was extremely worse. Vibrating like we had the back window rolled down, but all windows were up. Went back to dealer in newnan georgia and they hooked up a trailer to another vehicle and it had the same problem. We were told they could not do anything about it. We then bought new tires thinking it would help the issue. We have since bought two sets of tires, constantly having the vehicle tires rotated and balanced trying to minimize the vibration. We are currently up to 53k on the vehicle and very disappointed in the vehicle with the luxury price we paid. This all happened upon purchase.
I purchased a used 2015 chevrolet tahoe with about 140000 miles. After driving the vehicle for about a month i began to experience problems with the radio. It had an issue playing clearly. Then the display screen started jumping and moving through different commands on its own.just recently, two months after owning the vehicle, it has started to cut off completely while i am driving it.the first time it occurred is when i was about to make a left turn.the second time it occurred, i was backing into my drive way. This time it cut off completely three times in a row. I think i purchased a bad car and now i'm stuck with it until i can get enough money to sell it or trade it for another vehicle.
The new 2015 tahoes have a push button ignition.i pushed off the ignition with the car in drive (forgot to put in park), exited the vehicle and realized the car was rolling down the hill.i quickly jumped in and applied the brakes to stop the car.i was surprised that even though the car is in drive when the car's ignition is turned off, the transmission disengages and the car is in neutral!this is a big hazard.there should either be a fail safe and not allow the car to turn off in drive or automatically place the car in park when the ignition switch is pressed. (this is what happens on a recent model mercedes.)
Power steering went out while driving and gm won't replace under other power steering recalls had to pay 3k to fix, also steering assist out as well and won't fix unless paid for.
My truck was in 2 wheel drive(wd) and automatically engaged itself into 4wd on its own., i immediately received a notice on my dash consul, 4wd service alert on my 2015 chevy tahoe ltz. I was on the highway doing the speed limit 70 mph when my truck automatically engaged itself into 4 wheel high almost causing me to loose control on my vehicle. If i were on snow or wet roads i surely would have lost control of my vehicle at a high rate of speed.i immediately took it to brodheadsville chevy for repairs on 26, december 2019. The dealership put my truck on the computer and determined that it had a code c0398 for range position correction. The repair for this was a new calibration (basically update the current software) to the new version which was (version 9.2). (see attached dealership paperwork which details the repair.) i feel this software glitch is by no way my fault nor my responsibility to pay for this software failure. There was not any part found faulty or replaced. Computers were not damaged nor harmed in any manner to create this issue. This was a software glitch or error. The dealership had no explanation as to why or how this happened. I as a user of chevrolet's product have no control of how chevy codes there software to make sure that it performs correctly. If there is a coding defect in there software there is absolutely no way that i can repair it with out going to the dealership and having them fix it. I would like to see a recall on this unsafe issue potentially causing lose of life.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that while being off and in park position, the vehicle rolled away independently. As a result, the vehicle crashed into a parked car and the air bags failed to deploy. A police report was not filed and no injuries were sustained. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the manual shift detent lever and park pawl actuator needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 12,996.updated 4/30/15 updated 10/23/2015

4th and most dangerous of 4 incidents in 3 weeks of ownership of 2015 chevy tahoe lt. Without driver instruction or interference the 2015 tahoe shifted itself into 4wd despite dial on 2wd. Steering difficult, car jerked, engine revved differently and trouble in reverse. No warning signals on display and i didn't know what was happening. Drove .5 mi., pulled over restarted, and then "4 wheel drive, dismiss" on display over steering wheel (no seat vibration, flashing lights as with lane drifting). Tried to "undismiss", consulted manual and ensured dial was in 2wd. Cut ignition off, restarted, same light. Test drove another 1 mi. To see if warning display malfunction...car jerked and steering as if non-power steering. Called dealership (rick hendrick's city chevrolet, charlotte, nc) and svs tech had never heard of such an issue and consulted other techs (on hold 15 min). Finally svs mgr said car unsafe to drive but to drive it home 'slowly" and they would tow to dealership and get me a loaner. Svs mgr, on 3rd phone call after i threatened to notify ntsb, said he was calling a gm "program mgr" to see about my car's "dangerous issue". After the car rolled when ignition turned off (radio and dash lights off too) and it hit a dumpster b/c we had not put it in park, yet ignition still turned off (luckily no one hurt but significant paint damage), key fob wouldn't program seats/mirrors, mylink wouldn't pair to my phone and now to learn there is a recall for rolling b/c car shifts into neutral? i am still driving loaner, no word from svs mgr, i refuse to drive the car again and gsm said i'd have to go to gm direct for a "buy back". The 1-800-222-1020# he gave me useless). Help!
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.
Last night vehicle start jerking and when accelerating it would hesitate then take of and there was a sound in the transmission. The next morning which is today when i went to drive there was a error message that said 4 wheel drive. When i went to take of the vehicle would go in and out of 4 wheel drive by itself. This continued all day and feel the vehicle is not safe because when it erratically goes into 4 wheel drive at normal speed the steering was compromised. I will take it to dealer monday..
Tahoe 2015 ls transmission is slipping into neutral during acceleration from a stop sign/light after cycling through 1st and 2nd gear.suv will slow down in traffic.it also auto shift into park like condition at traffic light and would not move forward. I had to place the shift lever into park and then back to drive to get the transmission to engage.it also kick hard when engaged.the suv only has 5089 miles on it.i bought this suv new from reliable chevrolet in richardson, tx.today the problem got worse.it now would not engage when i put it into reverse.i had to push the gas peddle more to increase the rpm to get the transmission to kick in.it then kick hard into reverse.i brought this suv to my dealership to get it fix.they said they found nothing and return this suv back to me.i have another major stop and no go transmission issue again today feb 8, 2016.this time i have my teenage son with me and this really upset me.someone could have hit me from behind since the road was a downhill run with a stop light.i am bringing it back to my reliable chevrolet dealer in richardson, tx tomorrow feb 9, 2016 and demand then to fix it.i am now afraid to drive my new truck.if the electronics of the transmission tells the mechanical parts to go into park position while cruising down the street, this will be a very bad outcome.please tell mary barra to keep her promise no more crap car.this problem is going to hurt someone.
2015 tahoe with 120000, transmission is shuttering and slipping unbelievable. Pretty much everytime it shifts it doesn't know what it wants to do. This is completely unexceptable
Engine service light came on may 7th during a trip which made the vehicle run sporadically and missing which then caused the traction control light to come on as well.when we took the vehicle to the dealership they said that a lifter had stuck and it had ruined the camshaft.repairs would be 5800.00.we took the vehicle to another dealership and they gave us a better price and said that two other vehicles were in the shop in front of our vehicle for the same issue and some were newer 2019 or later vehicles and that this was a common problem because of defective parts.they said that the new parts were better and should work without the same problem.we do not have our vehicle back yet, i expect it back in a couple days because they had to order the parts.if this is a common problem, the dealerships know what is wrong and how to fix the problem, why is chevrolet not letting owners know and take care of the problem before they fail and we end up with a large invoice.i had a 2007 tahoe that had an oil consumptionproblem that everyone knew about and no one tried to get the problem fixed.this tahoe was purchased to take on trips.the vehicle stays in a garage full time, only has 38700 miles on the engine and i have had nothing but problems since it was purchased.during one trip two spark plugs were dead, had to be replaced.one trip the battery was dead so i had to get a battery maintainer and keep on the engine battery.trip to florida the front window leaked and after that one stationary side window leaked.one trip the rear air conditioner did not work the first time it was used because it was not grounded.i have already decided to never buy another chevrolet product in the future even though i have not used anything else since getting out of college in 1973.enough is enough.

Attempting to back down a hill a slow speed lost all brakes slid of hill rolled 4 times. Concussion, loss of eyesight in right eye.
The 2015 chevrolet tahoe has hard brake pedals when moving in low speeds. The need for increased effort to depress the brake pedal has high occurrences in stop-and-go traffic and high occurrences of failures at lower speeds.numerous attempts at the gmc service department in dallas, ga failed to report issues with the breaks. After researching this issue on the internet, there are numerous lawsuits regarding this issue and gm issued a series of service bulletins regarding the break problems.according to the service bulletins, fluid may be found in the brake booster and/or the booster vacuum line during a normal diagnostic.
While backing up the vehicle into a parking lot noticed the breaks where not properly functioning and took a lot of effort and pumping to stop, continued to notice a great effort and distance to stop and breaks not properly functioning due to a faulty break pump provided by manufacturer's error that could potentially cause complete lost of breaks. Took the vehicle for a diagnosis and had to replace the break pump for $526.
Brakes became extremely hard to apply while maneuvering at low speeds, almost caused a collision.
Tahoe would not stop.. Everytime put in reverse brake pedal gets hard an will not stop.had it check out an was told it was vacuum pump. Forward an back... Was told also there has been several has done same...just got it in august.. I have put 4000 on it..

Brakes randomly started not working. A lot of resistance, unable to stop, unable to push brake to floor. Finally got somewhere and parked after avoiding three accidents, vehicle had to be towed. Brake booster is bad.this seems to be a common problem with the 2015 tahoe. Why hasn't this been a recall????
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact received a recall notice for nhtsa campaign numbers: 19v761000 (electronic stability control, service brakes, hydraulic, service brakes) and 19v645000 (service brakes, hydraulic). While pulling into a driveway, the brake pedal was depressed, but the vehicle did not stop. The failure recurred while at a stop sign, which caused the contact to drive through the stop sign. There were no crashes reported. The vehicle was taken to team one chevrolet buick gmc (888-518-1576, located at 12899 garrett hwy, oakland, md 21550) where it was stated that the vehicle was not included in a recall due to the high mileage. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and sided with the dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 85,000. Vin tool confirms parts not available for 19v761000 (electronic stability control, service brakes, hydraulic, service brakes) and parts distribution disconnect for 19v645000 (service brakes, hydraulic).
Upon pressing brakes headlights flash, interior light flash, oil gage and rpms fluctuate all over. Stabilitrack sensor comes on. Upon accelerating to about 60-65the car brakes for itself. Doors lock, lights flash. Losing power steering when shifting gears
Service brake assist came on and vehicle is very hard to stop even when applying enormous pressure on the brake pedal. This accrues at lowerspeeds and is very dangerous to the consumer.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving 5 mph, the brake pedal was stiff and unable to be depressed. In addition, the service brake assist indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer (jay hodge chevrolet, 478 wildcat way, sulphur springs, tx 75482, (866) 839-1034) where it was diagnosed that the vacuum pump and brake belts needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 97,700.
Transmission completely went out at 104,000 miles, requiring new transmission.entire air conditioning system had to be replaced today the brakes stopped working suddenly- waiting for diagnosis. Vehicle had to be towed. Almost in three different accidents trying to get somwhere and get stopped. Catylatic convertor needs to be replaced and currently has three codes related to it showing. This vehicle has been problem after problem since day one.
When driving at slow speeds (restaurant drive-thru, stop and go traffic) i often find myself having difficulty pushing the brake pedal, as it is extremely hard to push down the pedal and the car will not come to a stop for 2-3 feet. I feel a strong vibration during this and a low pitched crunching sound, and cannot push the brake down.i am afraid i will have a collision.i did the 2019 recall in which the dealer recalibrated something with the brakes. But it i continuing to have problems, i took it back to the dealership to test the vacuum pump, but they said the "testing was normal" and they were not willing to drive it long enough to replicate the problem i was having, saying that it was worn rotors and brake pads that were causing the issue.i know what the car feels like when the rotors/pads need changing, and i do have slight vibration when braking at high speeds, but never where i have increased brake effort.only at slow speeds and if i am pressing the brake multiple times.
Braking systems not working properly.the vehicle failed to stop when applying the brake pedal.all brake pads are good; brake calipers are new; brake fluid is at max.i replaced everything i found online, but the issue is there on the vehicle. Dome light issue:the interior dome lights on the vehicle flashes constantly while driving.
Vehicle randomly brake occasionally while driving. Stabil trac error.
After reading the large number of similar problems with the 2015 tahoes and after speaking with individuals in this area in business with gm, i feel even more unsafe than i have before. I was told that although numerous problems and multiple lawsuits with the 2015 tahoe's, that there has been no total recall with my specific vin number. Shocking. I did see several recalls of great concern that i had not been made aware of.it's a hardship to have my vehicle in the shop more than it is in my garage. It's a hardship to pay to rent a working, safe vehicle because the one i pay $615 monthly for is unsafe, unreliable and a liability. In conclusion, are there steps an individual is able to take to resolve situations such as this? or is this something that one would need to seek assistance of legal aide to get the ball rolling?
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.
In a drive thru, pressed brake down and the pedal was rock hard. The tahoe didn't stop for an extra 3', which almost caused me to run into a chik fil a worker! he walked to my window mad, and i told him the brakes aren't working and to move the cones so i could get out of the drive thru. He did. I pumped the brake peddle and they worked enough for me to limp it to a mechanic right near there. He diagnosed a vacuum pump and charged my employer, lbb associates inc in columbia md $524 to repair
As i was sitting in the vehicle in park, i placed my foot on the brake and noticed that the brake assist had activated while in park. I was unable to push the petal down. I was able to move the shifter into drive with my foot on the brake, but the vehicle immediately plunged forward. As i continued to try and depress the brake petal, the vehicle finally slowed to a stop. Before i could get off the road and out of traffic, the brake assist continued to be locked up and there was no brakes if i shifted into reverse. I was extremely concerned for mine and my children's safety as this could have caused a very serious accident. The brakes did not stop the vehicle and were defective due to the vacuum pump "going out". The vehicle is only 2 years old and has 49k miles.
While driving at low speeds i am unable to stop the car by applying the brake.this happens when going in forward or reverse.the brake pedal just gets hard and doesnt stop the vehicle.the dealer said it is a bad mechanical brake vacuum pump that needs to be replaced.this is the ultimate saftey concern as i almost hit someone that was walking across the street, because i couldnt stop the truck.gm needs to accept accoutability and recall this faulty part
Hard brake pedal, increased effort is needed to depress brake pedal.most commonly at speeds <35 mph.often vehicle does not want to stop.vehicle was in moderate morning rush hour traffic.vehicle in front stopped quickly from 40 mph.tried pressing brake pedal on 2015 tahoe to stop, pedal was extremely hard and vehicle would not stop.
I was in a line for the car wash and my brake pedal got hard and i had to apply a lot of pressure in order to get the car to stop.i was able to get out of line and got back on the road and the car was breaking fine but as soon as i got in traffic and was at a slower speed the pedal would vibrate and again the pedal got hard and was difficult to stop.i made it back to my work which has a hill pulling in, going down the hill as i pressed the brake pedal it got hard and did the vibrating thing again.i had my 2015 chevy tahoe towed to a dealer where im currently awaiting a diagnostic.
On multiple occasions the brake pedal has been very hard and difficult to depress. As a result, it has taken all of my physical effort to press the pedal hard enough to get the vehicle to come to a stop. Fortunately, these instances have occurred while operating the vehicle at slower speeds (during stop and go traffic and at stop lights). This problem has been extremely intermittent and i've not been able to replicate the issue on demand. This is a major safety concern due to the unpredictability of the system failure.
Truck will barely stop at low speeds.replaced booster and still having issues. I was backing into a parking spot and almost hit a wall.
Pulling into garage at low speed and brakes didn't work properly.a significant amount of pressure was required to stop. I pressed with both feet and barely was able to get vehicle to stop before crashing into the house. The vehicle wasin motion.
Since purchasing my vehicle in 2016 i have had multiple issues. I have always noticed a drip of oil in my garage that wasn't consistent and when telling my dealership about it they stated they would look into it and found nothing. I was driving down the road and the side door black fascia flew off, the dealership replaced 3 stating it was still under the 34k warranty. I had requested they replace/secure the 4th and was told it was fine and didn't need replacing. I returned for an oil change about 6 months later and reported the one that was not replaced is now loose and was told by the dealership i was out of my warranty period and would be charged an hour labor as well as parts, costing roughly $120.00. I then had my ac go out in summer of 2019 and had that replaced supposedly a recall. When i took my car to the dealership for an oil change in fall 2019 i mentioned my car was not stopping properly while braking and they informed me there was a current recall that would fix the issue and that was performed. I was still noticing the braking issues. In nov.2019 i started to experience misfiring with the transmission and not shifting correctly. I made an appointment with the dealership and on the way to the dealership it worsened and i had to get it towed. I was informed i would not get a loaner car as all of theirs were out to people with parts required without an eta from gm. I was called 4 days later as i had not heard back and was told my car needed a replacement transmission as well as a new vacuum pump as this had failed and is the reason for the hard braking. The transmission was replaced and i was told to pick up my vehicle because the vacuum pump is on back-order without an eta and "i still have my abs that will assist with stopping".
The brake pedal becomes almost impossible to depress at low speeds causing the vehicle to roll without the ability to stop.seems like the brake booster is failing to apply pressure to the brake system.have read several complaints on this so i wanted to document one more case to push gm for a recall. My family almost had a bad crash the other day due to this and now it happens all the time. Abs is not activating to cause this, it is more a lack of boost in the brake system. We only have 40,000 miles on our truck.
When traveling slow, like pulling into garage, brakes will occassionally lose power making it nearly impossible to stop the vehicle.have almost backed into a car because brakes would not work.have seen on here that there are multiple complaints about this issue, so i wanted to confirm that it is happening with our tahoe as well.also occasionally will not engage when you have to slam the brakes.seems a very dangerous issue.has happened a few times in the past, but most recently on 03/06/19 while pulling it into the garage.
During slow movement, such as approaching a stop sign in traffic, the brake pedal will get hard and there will be no brakes.this has only occured during slow movement so far, but i'm now concerned that it could happen at highway speed.the dealer offered a repair for $691.00 but this is a manufactureres defect that should be under recall.
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
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.
The vehicle lost braking ability at low speed. It first occurred while in a parking lot and the pedal was stiff and could not be pushed in to stop the vehicle.it is believed that this is a result of a faulty vacuum pump after a web search has turned up that this situation is happening quite frequently to other owners and there is also a class action suite filed in the state of california for this very same problem.this is very dangerous and there needs to be a recall before someone is seriously hurt or killed.
2015 chevrolet tahoe. Consumer writes in regards to braking problems. *ldthe consumer requested to be reimbursed for the recall repair.
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."
Brakes failed while backing out of driveway.brakes were hard and would not stop vehicle.chevrolet's service bulletin indicated the vacuum pump failure will cause the master cylinder and another line to be considered "contaminated" causing them to need to be replaced.clearly upon further investigation this is a wide spread problem.
Brakes became extremely stiff, and power assist was lost.vehicle is very hard to stop, nearly causing an accident several times.took vehicle to a service shop, and found out that the vacuum pump was defective and caused oil to enter my brake vacuum and brake lines.had to all be replaced.
On numerous occasions, particularly at low speeds and going in reverse, the brake pedal suddenly becomes very difficult to press and delays the braking. I saw in the news that there was an investigation into this or similar problem. I have reported it to my dealers 2 different times. Once they did not find anything. Thenext time they made some repair but the problem still persists.it is very intermittent but extremely frightening when it happens. Going in reverse on a slope (out of a driveway) is particularly concerning. Have noticed this problem for the past 2 years. I have approx 95,000 on my vehicle.
I just had the brake vacuum pump replaced ( $750.00 ) now i see there might be a recallfor this problem .brakes were hard to push down at times .
Driving my car today and had a huge issue with my brakes.when backing out of parking space and noticed someone walking behind me and hit the brakes, it was like they were stuck.after a couple of seconds they finally gave and stopped, so i just thought maybe it was a fluke.this happened while i was 2 hours away from home.then on drive back home, i got stuck in bumper to bumper traffic because of an accident on the interstate.traffic came to a complete stop, so i hit my brakes and same thing, they were stuck (would not move).after about 3 seconds of pushing them as hard as i could, they finally gave and just barely missed hitting the car in front of me.i finally searched the internet to see if anyone else had experienced this problem.i was very shocked to see this is a known problem!this is a huge security risk!i was almost in 2 separate accidents today because of a known problem!shouldn't someone be notifying tahoe owners of this issue to keep the public safe?
Brake vacuum pump failure, every so often i am unable to break and it becomes very hard to step on the breaks. I have take i to the mechanic and they are charging me $1100 to get it fixed!!!
I decided to take a day trip up to lake tahoe- from folsom california. It's about 88 miles away. We made it to the top of the summit and on the way down my brakes stopped working. It was as hard as rock. I couldn't push down on the brake pedal at all!! it was so scary. As the people in front of me would brake i had to use my parking brake to slow is down. My only option was to crash into the person in front of me to stop us or use the guard rail and possibly go over the side of a cliff!! my car was loaded with 5 children and 2 adults. We were all terrified. I had no indication as the driver that anything was wrong with my brakes until that moment. There weren't any lights or warnings that something wasn't working properly. My hopes is to report this and not let it happen to anyone else.
We took this vehicle to the dealer yesterday for the recent brake system recall. We have been having problems with brakes for awhile but just hadn't taken it in. And then we heard about the recall so we took it in because it sounded like the same issue we had been experiencing. I can say that their 'fix' of reprogramming the software did not solve the problem. When moving slow or going from froward to reverse when parking, the brake pedal becomes very difficult to push. I have to put all my weight on the pedal to make the vehicle stop. There is no give either way. Hard as a rock. This happens all the time.
Took vehicle to dealership and they did a recall on the brakes. I was driving down the road and lost all breaks almost causing a major accident. Break light came on. Vehicle was in motion and would not stop, i had to slow the truck with emergency brake and downshiftingthe transmission to avoid a collision with a dump truck.
The brake pedal sits significantly higher than the gas pedal. When moving my foot from the gas pedal to the brake pedal, my foot gets caught on the back of the brake pedal.
Driving on the highway and city street it has happened at least 3 times in the last couple months, the park assit, stabillity track and last night the steering assist came on along with other lite lights brake, abs which i have recorded on my phone. At the moment its at the dealer, per service advisor they " had the truck on drove it and has happened of now to them, requested to keep another day to recheck tomorrow.
Computer message coming back as having a problem with the vacuum pump for the brakes. Very common and known problem the chevy has not pair.
October 8, 2019 was taking off in traffic after stopping at a red light, approximately 5-10 mph. The traffic stopped, attempted to apply the brakes and pedal felt hard. Rear end collision occurred with the car in front of me causing rear damage to that vehicle and front damage to my vehicle. Approximately 2 months later was pulling into a parking spot at a low speed and could not stop the vehicle, felt like the brake pedal was stuck to the floor. Pulled the emergency brake and was able to get stopped without a collision. Took vehicle into dealer on january 10th. They reprogrammed the hydraulic brake boost but said the pedal was still hard and they would need to replace the mechanical vacuum output. The part is on backorder but they would not release the vehicle back to me because of safety risks yet i've been driving around for months with same problem. All recalls reviewed are suggestive if you experience this problem not a mandatory repair. Why wait until someone has a crash like i did?? once researched this has been a known issue for months with 3 associated recalls. This is a huge safety issue, needs to be mandatory remedied. My vehicle damage was set to be repaired next week but now it has to be cancelled because i do not have the vehicle in possession.
Brake pedal not responding. Pushing the pedal at a drivethru window and kept moving. Had to jam on the pedal all the way to the floor to finally stop, put in park. Luckily no one in front of my to hit. Able to duplicate problem several times; mainly when coasting and at slow speed. Braking at driving seems to work better, still seems to be off though. Was able to slowly return to work, with another employee following, and park. Parking was difficult, thought i was going to go down the bank! had to use the e-brake. The vehicle is going to the dealership tonight! i refuse to drive with this problem!
No power assist with brakes, hard pedal, inadequate braking. Found vehicles vacuum pump and line that supplies vacuum to the power brake booster failed.
When applied te brake pedal some time feels hard and the pedal goes to the floor ( that is in low rpm when i'm going to park the vehicle) also when i'm going to parking in reverse feels more noise and won't stop totally even with the brake pedal all the way to the floor. Thank you.
Brake pedal gets hard at low speed when going from traffic light to traffic light or even in traffic
The contact called on behalf of her son who was the vehicle owner/driver of a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving at approximately 45-50 mph, the vehicle crashed into a tree.the contact was concerned that the collison may have been related to existing recalls on the vehicle. The driver was fatally injured.the contact was the mother of the driver. The contact stated that while her son was driving between 45-50 mph, he lost control of the vehicle, jumping a curb, and crashed into a tree. During the crash the air bags did deploy but the driver was not wearing a seat belt. The driver was fatally injured during the crash and sustained two broken legs. The contact stated that based on the police and ems reports received, the middle console had been ripped off by the driver during the incident in an attempt to brace himself for the collision. The report also mentioned that no tire skid marks were present at the scene. The vehicle was destroyed and towed from the scene. The contact stated that the event data recorder (edr) was destroyed. As a result, thecause of the failure was not diagnosed. The contact discovered that the vin was later included in nhsta campaign numbers: 18v586000 (steering) and 19v645000 (service brakes, hydraulic). The manufacturer was notified of the incident. The failure mileage was 50,000.
Lost all brake boost while backing a boat down a steep boat ramp. Was able to stop, but i'm sure a smaller person (like my wife) would not have been able to. The repair shop replaced the vacuum pump. I now understand this is a common, known gm problem.
When brakes are pressed or turn signal used the middle interior lights flash
At slow rate of speed, pulling into parking spot or in drive-thru lines, the brake pedal takes effort to push, ticking, clicking and grinding sound and the brake pedal begins to vibrate and very hard to push down to stop the vehicle.i see this has been recalled on other vehicles but not my particular tahoe ltz vin# this has been an ongoing issue since september 2019 after the car was purchased.
I was driving straight in the parking lot at a slow speed (leas rhan 5 miles) preparing to stop for people crossing. The brake did not work and the car kept rolling almost hitting a person. I pulled into a spot towards the end of the parking lot and the brakes continued to not work even when pressing with 2 feet. Per chevy dealarship i have to pay to have the brake vacuum pump fixed. Minimal explanation needed when i brought my car in, service guy knew exactly what i was talking about without asking any questions.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet. While driving 5 mph, the service brake assist warning indicator illuminated and the brakes failed to engage. The contact had to apply the emergency brake to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to mac haik chevrolet (11711 katy fwy, houston, tx 77079, (281) 497-6600) where it was diagnosed that the vacuum pump failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired because the parts were not available. The failure recurred multiple times. The contact referenced nhtsa campaign number: 19v645000 (service brakes, hydraulic). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and provided case number: 9-5634885741. The manufacturer stated that someone would call back; however, the contact had not heard from anyone. The failure mileage was approximately 150,200.
At low speeds my brake pedal would get extremely hard to push down causing the car to be difficult to stop.after turning off the vehicle and turning it back on it seemed fine.a few weeks went by with no issues and then it returned when backing out of my driveway.turned the vehicle off and on and it seemed to be working fine.another 3 days passes and then brake pedal gets hard and can barely stop the car causing a close collision.the service brake assist light comes on and the brakes are extremely difficult to push to make the car stop.drove the vehicle home carefully due to needing to step on the brakes extremely hard.replaced the brake booster and still not working.replaced the vacuum pump and line to fix the issue. This caused many close calls as the first time i was backing into a parking spot and almost hit the wall.the other times i was driving through a drive through almost hit the car in front of me and driving through a neighborhood towing and almost hit the car in front of me at the stop sign.
When driving in low speeds - such as parking or stop/go traffic my brakes fail to work.i try to push pedal down as hard as i can but barely seems to stop.i have had to push my emergency brake pedal more than once to stop an accident from happeningi also have a small child that i fear will be hurt if the problem is not fixed.i have taken it to dealership and they say they can't replicate the issue there fore can not fix.
The contact owned a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. When the vehicle was shifted into drive, it independently accelerated. The vehicle sped from the contact's driveway into the front neighbor's yard before crashing into the neighbor's air conditioning unit. After the crash, the vehicle spun around until the passenger tire partially separated from the wheel well. In addition, the brakes failed at the time of the incident. There were deep skid marks visible on the neighbor's yard. The contact was transported from the scene via ambulance. The contact was treated for unknown injuries that required immediate medical attention. A police report was filed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was destroyed. The failure mileage was 50. Ma 10/14
Brakes were faulty. The car was not stopping at slow speeds. After going back and forth with dealer and showing them the 'diagnostic tip' out for this known issue, they replaced vacuum pump free of charge. I asked whythey didn't replace the other items listed as recommended on the notice. Now 7 months later, the other parts are leaking and need replacement. This should have been replaced at same time.
Was parking and the service brake turn hard as a rock. So at a slow speed drive around the lot to found the service brake with no warning would just stop working. Like the brake booster lost vacuum and needed time to build back up. Had towed to dealer. Mileage 37,500 give or take 100 miles at no time did any warning lights come on . Same thing happed at the dealer then tech and service writer drove it . Also right side drl seems to fail in every one i see
Returning from an 80 mile trip from washington dc when i approached a stop light on the highway. Brake pedal went completely to the floor when i tried to engage. Luckily i was able to stop short of hitting car ahead of me. I proceeded through light only to experience the same issue when i pulled off the highway into a convenience store and called my husband.he immediately drove to the dealer and did have brakes at that time.they found oil in the brake line. Had to replace the pump, pipe, booster, cylinder and brake fluid. It was reported to me this has happened numerous times to same model. Why not a recall?very unsafe!my car was out of warranty.
When braking at 1 to 5 mph, brake pedal becomes hard to press.it feels like the abs system is being activated.
While the vehicle is in motion, and the interior dome lights are off, i press the brake pedal, and the dome lights flicker very intensely for a half-second. This flickering also happens when the left turn signal is activated. It is a very bright flicker and could cause an accident due to momentary distraction or light-blinding.
While going at slow speeds, the brake pedal becomes stiff and locks up resulting in the brakes not working at all. This has caused me to almost hit multiple people in heavy traffic, parking lots, and drive through restaurant lines as well as almost causing me to roll through red lights into oncoming traffic. This has happened randomly over the past year (2018) and has recently became more common.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving approximately 15 mph, the brake pedal was depressed, but failed to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the vacuum pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired.

I been having my truck for 2 years and brakes keep going out and the air condition keeps going out. I have two friends the same vehicle with the same problems. This is ridiculous i see no recalls on that. And i've seen on the reviews of this vehicle and its not just me there's people out there with the same problem that i am having. This could cause a really bad accident the brakes keep going out i am not the only one with this problem. Please take in consideration that everyone has families. And accidents could cause us to lose our family just for a simple brakes that have not been recalled. And also, we just cannot keep affording to fix the air conditioning this truck is not even old enough to be giving us these problem. Thank you
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that while driving at 5 mph, the brake pedal was applied but failed to respond without warning. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer: coughlin ford ofcirclevillelocated at 24001 us highway 23 s circleville oh 49113 where it was diagnosed that the brake sensor needed to be replaced.

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.
My 2015 chevrolet tahoe's interior lights flash brightly when the brake or left turn signal is applied.it is a very bright flash and extremely distracting at night.it happens while driving.i can imagine it is also very distracting to other drivers at night as well.it happens every time the brake or left turn signal is turned on.online research indicates other people also have this issue.it happens on all roadways at all times.but specifically at night is the safety concern.my passengers in the rear have also been complaining that it is physically stressful to them when the interior lights flash without them expecting them too.
Recalled issued by dealer in september 2019. I received the notice on 10/21/2019. Recall # n192268490.i had the vehicle repaired on 9/13/2019 by a 3rd party.i called the dealer about reimbursement since i repaired the vehicle before i was aware of the recall.i was informed that since i had the repair work done by a 3rd party and not a certified chevrolet dealership i would not be reimbursed.is there any other recourse for reimbursement or partial reimbursement for my out of pocket expense?
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 purchaseput on vehicle. Was waiting on line at midtown tunnel when brakes went out . Pretty scary
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.
Brakes failed because of faulty vacuum pump.pulling a trailer at the time, lucky to be alive.please do something about this before more are injured or killed.
Vacuum pump: brake pedal is very stiff and hard to brake when traveling at slow speeds, but it is very sporadic. When this happens i have to apply extra force to the brakes to try and stop the vehicle. I purchased the vehicle used in august 2016 and experienced this a few months after buying my tahoe in early 2017. The dealearship said they were not aware of any issues or recalls at the time i called. I continued to drive my tahoe, but with caution at slower speeds since i did not know if or when this would happen again. I ultimately decided to bring my tahoe in for further diagnosis after it happened again and began happening more frequently. I experienced the same stiff brake issue at the car wash recently on 02/16/19 and when parallel parking a couple months ago, almost resulting in accidents in both cases. I took it to the local gm dealership on 02/18/19 for an electronic power steering recall (unrealted to this issue) and they knew exactly what i was talking about when i mentioned it to them. After the diagnosis it was determined that the vacuum pump was faulty and it was replaced.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving at 45 mph, the service brake assist was displayed across the message board. In addition, the contact stated that the brake pedal was depressed and it took a greater amount of time for the vehicle to come to a complete stop. The failure recurred on numerous occasions. The vehicle was taken to a dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 16,562.updated 6/18/15 updated 10/12/2017
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.
I have 77k miles in my chevy tahoe. Recently, my brakes failed almost causing an accident. My brake pedal became very hard and i was unable to make a sudden stop. If there was another car in front of me it could of been serious resulting in major injuries. My vehicle continued to roll forward approx 20 feet before coming to a complete stop. When i contacted our local gm dealer i was advised to not drive the vehicle and get it towed. I've researched that many of this year and models have experienced the same defect with the brakes. Calling it the faulty vacuum pumps. What is even more frustrating is in september of 2018 i felt vibration in my brakes and the tech recommended to reolace my front brakes which i did. My vehicle is now getting repaired but in the meantime there are millions of the models out on the same roads your family and friends drive on, totally unsafe. Gm needs to recall and make this right for all of us.
November 2017: intermittent brake failure as low speeds (idle) when engine is hot. Generally occurs, when pulling into parking spots, backing-up, and slowly approaching stop light or stop sign. Brake pedal to floor, pedal pulses. Gm repair with new master cylinder. Said brake fluid was by-passing the piston.may 2018: intermittent brake failure as low speeds (idle) when engine is hot. This time issue started when towing a rv. Issue remained after towing ceased. Gm said test drove and stated nothing is wrong with brake system. Bring back another day to test drive if you can get issue to occur. I agree, when i retrieved the vehicle from gm, the brakes worked .
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.
Unable to brake. While attempting to slow down my brakes are making my vehicle unable to stop properly.took my tahoe to chevy dealership and they were able to fix is. This issue has been going on since then end of last year. So i?ve been very limited to being able to drive.on april 9th i went to do a curbside grocery pick up with my 1 year old and 3 year old while leaving the grocery store my brakes went out. I was able to pump my pedals turned hard making it u able to brake i forced my leg to push down enough to put it onpark and turn my tahoe off. I waited 10 min toattempt to leave to the grocery store and it happened again. I called my husband for help he arrived changed out the car seats and attempted to drive him slow. As we were arriving back home the brakes went out again inside the garage at our home. Tahoe is at the dealership getting the brakes fix so i hope everything is back to normal after it being fix.
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.
I was driving in traffic going about 5mph and when i applied my brakes they were not working 100% i had to push the pedal to the floor and the truck kept rolling. I had to had to figure out a way to safely move to the shoulder of the freeway to avoid accidents. I waited on the shoulder of the freeway for about a hour for traffic to stop. I was finally able to get off the freeway so i could check the brake fluid it was full. I knew there wasn't a problem with the brakes because they had just been replaced the prior month. I knew the vehilce was not safe to drive home so i left the truck at davis chevrolet at their night drop. I talked to a service technician and he informed me that he has seen this issue a lot with 2015 tahoe's, and infact 3 2015 tahoe's were brought in the same day november 3,2017. Before looking at my vehicle the technician told me it was the vacume pump but he would call me back to let me know for certain. Once they looked at my truck he said it was the vacuum pump that needed to be replaced and it was not under warranty. I don't understand how gm knows about this issue and still does not recall it, this can cause major accidents and potentially cause a life. It's obvious there is a issue with tje vacuume pumps in tje 2015 tahoe's and gm needs to take responsibility and do a recall before someone dies because their brakes fail due to a vacuum pump not working.
Has a problem in the suspension when you drive it jumps like an old truck. Recently replaced the front shock absorbers that we're covered by the warranty, but the problem still continues and it also feels too loose on the brakes. Another problem, recently went out to a store and when i reversedand i wanted to stop because a vehicle was coming, the brake pedal became hard as a stone and does not stop the vehicle no matter if you brake with all your strength the pedal becomes very hard and, now the problem is very constant.
Brake vacuum pump loses pressure when brakes pressed repetitively. While in traffic i rear ended another motorist due to brake pressure loss. Causing damage to both vehicles. No injuries due to low speed but even at high speeds brake pressure is lost, if the brake pedal is depressed repeatedly you lose all brake assist. Vehicle was brought in for recall regarding abs software update but brakes still feel horrible. Tsb was issued to vehicles under 72000 but only began this year. Current tsb does not cover my vehicle. I contact the gm regarding this issue and they told me that they will not cover my vehicle one make exceptions.this needs to be a full recall of the vaccum pump, vacuum line and master cylinder like stated in the tsb. Someone can die from this issue if going down hill at speed.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that the brakes failed while pulling into a parking lot. The vehicle would not stop and the brake pedal nearly went to the floorboard before the vehicle finally stopped. The brake warning indicator was illuminated. The contact called neilson chevrolet (1 us-46, dover, nj 07801, (973) 366-1243) and was informed that diagnostic testing was needed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired; however, the dealer stated that a brake vacuum was needed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and did not assist. The failure mileage was 81,000.
No power assist with brakes, hard pedal, inadequate braking. Found vehicles vacuum pump and line that supplies vacuum to the power brake booster failed.
2015 chevrolet tahoe. Consumer writes seeking reimbursement for repairs made that are associated with gm safety recall. *ld
I have a 2015 tahoe that looses break pressure at idle rpm in drive,once you raise the rpms the brake pressure will come back. We have almost hit multiple vehicles when trying to stop in a parking spot or in line at drive thru's. The problem is the brake vacuum pump is failing and i will be purchasing a new one and replacing it, i have been quoted upwards of $1000 for parts and labor for this faulty part.
I pulled into my driveway...the engine speed started increasing and simultaneouslythe brake pedal sunk into the floor and braking abilitywas lost.this happened about 4 feet from my garage door and this caused my truck into the garage door.i have a driveway video of me on the phone and then the car being accelerated through the garage door.
Brakes did not work. It felt like i was pushing through concrete. Had to swerve to avoid collision. Had to shift to m to slow vehicle down while pushing with both feet to come to a complete stop.
At low speeds (less than 10 mph) brakes (abs and power assist) have failed when in reverse on slight incline.most recently (4/20/2021) the same issue occured when moving forward, at approximately 5-7 mph, while on approx 8% downhil grade.the road surface was non-paved, mixed dirt/gravel.this issue occured multiple times, however, during 2 of the occurances the vehicles would not come to a complete stop and was thought to have continued over the edge of road into canyo if not for an extreme choice forward path to navigate thurn.this "road" was the white rim road in canyon lands national park, utah.
Upon driving in low speed, dry conditions, bumper to bumper traffic (less than 10mph), my 2015 chevrolet tahoe ltz's brakes became unresponsive. At that point, i put all my weight on the brakes and the car came to an uncalculated stop. This problem persisted and did not remedy itself. The dealership notified me that there was a faulty brake vacuum pump, and brake booster, and that it failed because of moisture penetration. Further, general motors has issued technical bulletin pit 5361a/b/c to address this known issue. My tahoe has 59,000 miles on it. After further research, this is a known issue by gm at the time of my vehicle purchase in december 2014 and further, has been acknowledged through technical bulletins to the gm dealers. Further, there are documented cases where injuries/wrecks have occurred due to this specific issue. The general motors company has been negligent in its handling of this important safety (not cosmetic) issue.
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!!!
When applying brake at low speeds (under 5 mph) the vehicle continues to roll with brake pressed all the way to floor. Eventually stops but this happens in drive and reverse...scary when parking and another car or other object is in front of you. No noise or dash display indicator.
Since may the brakes have not worked intermittently and to stop the car i had to press down as hard as possible. Early on i had the fluid levels and brake pads and rotors checked and was told they were fine so i was not sure of the problem until i saw a bulletin from your office. I then took it to the dealer who diagnosed it as low output from the vacuum pump. It cost nearly $700 to replace and in my opinion should be put onrecall as it is verydangerous to have the brakes fail intermittently. I almost had a number of accidents due to this issue and had to have my vehicle pulled from the water when launching my boat.
While driving with my children in the car my wife experienced a near sudden deterioration in braking performance.the brake pedal became very stiff with little or no travel in pedal regardless of pressure applied.this deterioration in braking performance became critical - requiring all the force my 100lb wife could muster to bring the car to a stop.the stiff pedal was obvious with the car on and off, moving and stationary.though the problem occurred and was recognized only after the car was in motion on i84 (at 65 mph!!).our mechanic identified the vacuum pump as the cause of the issue.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving 70 mph, the brakes failed to stop the vehicle without warning. With the brake pedal all the way to the floorboard, the driver was able to drive off the highway and finally stopped the vehicle with the emergency brake. The vehicle was towed to the dealer (rydell chevrolet in northridge, california) where it was diagnosed that the brake assist failed. The vacuum pump and the belt kit were replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that an investigation would be conducted to determine the actual cause of the failure. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was 51,871.updated 09/20/17*lj
Brake pedal becomes hard to press when rpms are low.unable to stop quickly.
While in line at a restaurantbrakes became hard to push ,chattered and the vehicle was hard to stop. The vacuum pump is the problem there is a recall on this year and make but mine is not covered .nhtsa campaign number: 19v645 and 20v603
At low rate of speed the brake pedal becomes hard to press when attempting to stop. Vibrating feeling and clicking noise can be heard from brake pedal.
When applying the brakes my car doesn't stop 100% of the time. 1 time during highway slow moving traffic, 3 times backing out of my driveway (flat surface), 4 times when on incline/decline of road. When applying brakes, horrible chattering vibration comes from left front tire area, chatter vibration is felt in brake pedal. No matter how hard i apply the brake the car keeps going - it willfinally stop, but i almost hit the car in front of me at the one highway occurrence, 2 times car finally stopped just before going over edge of property when pulling forward & backward to turn around in tight area. In each instance i am moving at a very slow speed.i contacted dealership, they told me i wasn't the only one calling about this happening but since i'm over 36,000 warranty they will charge me to ck it out, probably can't recreate the problem, said it was probably abs but nothing they can do about that, suggested i find a dealership close to me whenever it happens again!
My brakes failed in heavy highway traffic when trying to merge over. The vehicle was stopped then coasting and brakes would not work.got towed to dealer for gm recall n192268490.recall was performed.brakes failed 45 miles later when slowly backing into driveway. The faulty program that has been recalled is known to damage the vacuum pump yet chevrolet has only recalled the program and not the vacuum pump.i filed a case with chevrolet monday 10/14/19 and was told i would receive a call in 1 to 2 business days.i have not received a call back.i spoke with someone today who said the senior service advisor is scheduled to call me at 9pm friday 9/18/19.my grandson and i waited over 3 hours for our onstar tow and he is absolutely devastated by the fear he experienced.
Intermittent problem where excessive force applied to brake pedal is required to stop vehicle while in motion or keep the vehicle in a stopped state. This primarily seems to happen in traffic where frequent stops at idle speed is common. Contacted gm dealer for resolution and was told that vehicles vacuum pump would be replaced under a special warrantif the vehicle was under 70000 miles. Consequently the vehicle was slightly over this and warranty would not be honored.
I 2019 around march to mayi took my car to the chevrolet place in claxton, ga due to my brakes not working properly and showing "brake assist" message. They had my car in their shop five times for this matter. First three times they couldn't find anything, fourth time they replaced the wrong part and cost me almost $500. Fifth time they replaced in under the recall that was out then. Now, feb 2020 my car has brake issues again. This time my car is showing "stabilitrak" and "brake assist". They are wanting to repair a hub, a module and struts and saying that this is also due to a "side detection system". My struts were related last year before the previous brake repair. I have done my research online and seen that many vehicles from many year makes have had these issues with their vehicle and gm is avoiding the issue. I have two small children that ride in this car and one was in the car with me when my brakes didn't work properly this past issue. My car was now been in the shop for brake issues 6 times and this side detection issue i think needs tone looked into further being so many customers are having issues with this.
Braking systems not working properly. The vehicle failed to stop when applying the brake pedal. All brake pads are good; brake calipers are new; brake fluid is at max. I replaced everything i found online, but the issue is there on the vehicle.
Even with the recall done the brakes do not stop the vehicle on the second brake application if you are at slow speeds. If you brake at slow speeds release the pedal and brake again you virtually lose all brake power.
Yesterday while driving at a low speed, slowing to a stop, the brakes felt very hard and difficult to press to stop. I continued to drive for the remainder of the day and it seemed to stop fine at higher speeds but slowing out of driveway or into parking lots it was very difficult to stop. Even at stop signs, i had to start hitting the breaks well ahead of the sign in hopes that it actually stopped by the time i got to sign. It seemed to get worse. Called dealer and left message. Called again and service department was closed for the weekend. Likely it will need to be towed to the dealer. I don't think it is safe to drive.
When reversing my brakes stall to work.my truck will it stop and have a almost crashed. Moving forward thru a drive thru the truck doesn't stop either.*dtconsumer stated when reversing, brakes stall to work and consumer almost got in a car accident. Consumer felt vehiclestarted failing when they took it in for a recall on the antilock brakes. Vehicle no longer under warranty, vehicle cannot be checked without paying upfront. In moving up slowly through the drive thru behind cars, the brakes seem to fail when consumer steps on the brakes and almost hits thecars in the rear bumper.
While driving on the road in traffic i went to press on the brakes and noticed they had become stiff and had to press them as hard as possible to slowly stop while trying to avoid hitting another vehicle in traffic. No warning lights were on in the dash until i pulled over and restarted vehicle a couple of times. Then i got the active brake assist service light on. I had the vehicle towed to the nearest chevrolet service center due to the vehicle not safe to drive.
At low speeds, or idle, the brake pedal becomes very hard to depress.loss of power boost resulting in extreme effort to activate braking.this happened while stuck in a traffic jam travelling at speeds of less than 10 miles per hour for approximately 15 minutes.problem lasted until traffic returned to normal speed, when braking returned to normal.i believe i have the same vacuum pump problem being cited by other owners.
I initially noticed difficulty with braking while backing out of a parking space at a very low rate of speed. The brake pedal became hard and the vehicle continued to roll backward, with full weight on the brake pedal. Approximately one month later i was in bumper-to-bumper, stop-and-go traffic and the brake pedal again hard and the vehicle continued to roll forward. This issue did not occur during normal driving conditions, only at low rates of speed and with frequent, repetive stopping. I took the vehicle to a local chevrolet service department and they were unable to replicate the issue or identify the problem with diagnostic equipment. I was told by the service manager the problem was likely due to 'over use' of the brakes and the brake is designed to be 'pumped' rather than compressed for more than a few seconds. I took the vehehicle to a second chevrolet dealership. The service department replaced the brake booster vacuum pump and this seems have resolved the issue. I was unable to drive my vehicle for approximately 2 months due to fear the brakes would fail. The vehicle has 54,000 miles and was purchased new from a dealership.

Having issues with braking. Occasionally at high speeds, but more often during lower speeds. The brake pedal becomes very hard to depress and meanwhile the vehicle is still moving, not allowing you to stop. Happens also going in reverse. Had a collision, hit the rear end of another vehicle yesterday morning during rush hour, 3/18/2019.

Front body severe damage to my tahoe. Police report has been filed. We bought this tahoe in fall of 2017, and february 2017, took into the dealership due to the braking issues, nothing was found or done to the brake system.

2015 chevy tahoe, we purchased two months ago still under factory warranty. I was turning around in the driveway, hit the brakes, and the brake pedal wouldn't move. It was extremely stiff, causing me to crash the vehicle into my utility trailer. I pushed as hard as possible and nothing happened. There was almost no braking pressure at all and my suv just kept going. I purchased this vehicle for my family but now everyone is scared to ride in it. I've financed a vehicle for years that i've had posession of for months, and it's most nesscery saftey function has failed. I'm extremely disappointed. I've always owned gm vehicles. As a 31 year old father of 3 small children, this was a very large purchase for our young family.now i feel i may have to look outside my trusted brand to find a safe vehicle i can transport the most precious cargo in.it's very disappointing . I then find out this exact issue has caused multiple crashes involving injuries. Gm is aware this is a problem, lawsuits have been filed, yet little or nothing has been done. How can general motors knowingly turn a blind eye and allow this life threating saftey issue to go on in a vehicle marketed to families?
Failure in brake vacuum pump caused my brakes to improperly work this me rear ending another car. Brake felt like a rock and pushed back against my foot. I was in motion at roughly 15mph and was able to slow to roughly 8mph at a distance of roughly 10 yards. This was during rush hour traffic. Problem had been intermittent at very low parking lot speeds.

When trying to brake at low speeds the brakes lock up and feel like you or pushing through concrete. It is terrifying when you are coming down a hill, pulling a trailer, with your kids in the car. This happens frequently! i have had the brakes pads and rotors replaced with no changes. Pretty frustrating when you spend $50,000 on a vehicle and no one can tell you what the problem is.
The brakes power assist fails after application of brakes in traffic or when reversing.when in heavy traffic situation and when applying light pressure numerous times, the brakes power assist fails and you have to apply very heavy pressure to the pedal to stop.reversing, the brakes power assist fails almost immediately after initial brake application.
While driving 10mph or less the vehicle will not stop the brakes are very are and stuff will not allow you to stop nor while reversing! i've almost hit someone walking and someone car! i ran into our industrial fan in our garage because i couldn't stop.

I'm unemployed and pay a note on this vehicle. I've had problems since i purchased it brand new! also the rear camera never work it barely work it's a very small one the dealership said they will install the regular one in that every tahoe has because mine has a defect and it's not the touchscreen that all tables have and no parts for this one but gm wouldn't agree with it they've done everything to the back up camera and it keep going in and out and has to have updated my link radio. That's dangerous.as well as the brake cable keep slipping and causing major sqeaking when going over bumps speed bumps and etc. And the motor mounts still not fixed i've taking it several times about the major shake and vibration from it while at lights or still and they've changed them out shaved them down still no help so they were still waiting on gm to come out with a part to fix it.

I've had someone to fix the brake issues and it cost a lot and gm will not reimburse me please helpi have proof and receipts of everything.
While reversing in slow speeds intermittently in forward motion, the brake pedal becomes very hard and will not stop the vehicle. The brake pedal has to be depressed very hard and there is a vibrating motion. The master cylinder has already been replaced by the dealership at an expense of nearly $600, but the issue persists.

My 2015 chevrolet tahoe lt would not stop approaching a major intersection. Brake pedal became hard and would not come to a complete stop at a major city intersection, nearly causing an accident. I was told by the dealership that the vacuum pump will need to be replaced at my expense and it is a common occurrence on this year and model . Not only is this a safety issue, its a common problem and a technical bulletin has been released for the repair. This vehicle is out of the bumper to bumper warranty but is still however under the 1000,000 drive train warranty. Gm needs to address this problem before someone gets injured.
Brake pump failed and needed to be replaced. Gm knows of this problem and should do something about it before lives are lost, people are injured or property is damaged (from this point forward).
The braking system failed while driving; i was approaching a traffic light and slowing down and at about 15-20 mph and slowing the brake pedal went straight to the floor. The vehicle was no longer slowing down so i pumped the brakes to try and regain some kind of braking and the abs system tried to kick in but was only partially affective and slowed the vehicle down enough to come to a stop after i crossed the intersection and ran over a curb.
Loss of braking power at slow speeds going forward or in reverse.the brake pedal becomes very hard to depress and meanwhile the vehicle is still moving.also the brake pedal is very hard to depress when starting the vehicle in the mornings with the electronic start button.i almost hit a parked car on a parking lot when backing into a space with a car in the spot behind me.happened several times when approaching a red light traffic signal.i first noticed this approx. A year ago, but thought it was just a temp. Fluke of some kind, but it happened sporadically several times since then.when this happened again at the mall on 2/16/19, that was the final straw.... Better report this before something terrible happens.

Six months later i begin experiencing major issues with the vehicle.those issues includes the following: flickering of the head lights when using turning signals and or use of rolling up the car windows, the dash board completely powering off, the vehicle completely powering off, and the sterling wheel locking during any turns. Please note that all these issues takes place while driving the vehicle at any speed. I have taken my car in multiple times for the same issues however, autonation chevrolet airport continues to state that there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. There have been multiple near fatal car accidents due to the issues with this vehicle. While driving through a green light, making a left turn the steering wheel locked up causing the car to spin in the middle of the intersection as i slammed on the brakes to which i was stuck in the intersections for approximately five mins until the locked wheel would unlock thus allowing me to move. Another occasion took place while exiting off a high way ramp to which i slammed on breaks nearly causing other cars to rear end my vehicle. I have provided autonation chevrolet airport with video proof of the unsafe issues i am experiencing. I have taken the time to express in great detail to both the general manger [xxx] at autonation chevrolet airport and the following senior advisors at the gmc/chevrolet customer assistance cooperate office [xxx]. There have been multiple case numbers issued to address my concerns and the safety of this vehicle ([xxx]). I am seeking to get out of this unsafe vehicle.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
When turning on the brights on my 2015 chevytahoe the dash screen will flash on and off, as well as shut off the cruise control when on. In addition, the stabilitrak will flash an error message. In addition to all of this the headlights flash while driving. At night this is very scary and harmful. These electrical issues need to be corrected!
Power steering went out while driving and gm won't replace under other power steering recalls had to pay 3k to fix, also steering assist out as well and won't fix unless paid for.
It started with a clicking sound when turning the steering wheel. I brought it to dealership and they changed entire steering column. A week later it made a clicking sound again on a hard turn. I called gm to ask about a buy back. I do not feel safe in that car with kids. Then later the same day, i was backing out of sons little league game and steering column locked and displayed locked on information screen. I hit brakes and lock display disappeared so i shifted to park and then to back to reverse and steering column lock again display and lock. I then put car back into park and turned off. I turn car back on after a couple of minutes and it was working fine no more steering column lock display. I have a keyless start, loaded lt model that has all features of an ltz tahoe.

4th and most dangerous of 4 incidents in 3 weeks of ownership of 2015 chevy tahoe lt. Without driver instruction or interference the 2015 tahoe shifted itself into 4wd despite dial on 2wd. Steering difficult, car jerked, engine revved differently and trouble in reverse. No warning signals on display and i didn't know what was happening. Drove .5 mi., pulled over restarted, and then "4 wheel drive, dismiss" on display over steering wheel (no seat vibration, flashing lights as with lane drifting). Tried to "undismiss", consulted manual and ensured dial was in 2wd. Cut ignition off, restarted, same light. Test drove another 1 mi. To see if warning display malfunction...car jerked and steering as if non-power steering. Called dealership (rick hendrick's city chevrolet, charlotte, nc) and svs tech had never heard of such an issue and consulted other techs (on hold 15 min). Finally svs mgr said car unsafe to drive but to drive it home 'slowly" and they would tow to dealership and get me a loaner. Svs mgr, on 3rd phone call after i threatened to notify ntsb, said he was calling a gm "program mgr" to see about my car's "dangerous issue". After the car rolled when ignition turned off (radio and dash lights off too) and it hit a dumpster b/c we had not put it in park, yet ignition still turned off (luckily no one hurt but significant paint damage), key fob wouldn't program seats/mirrors, mylink wouldn't pair to my phone and now to learn there is a recall for rolling b/c car shifts into neutral? i am still driving loaner, no word from svs mgr, i refuse to drive the car again and gsm said i'd have to go to gm direct for a "buy back". The 1-800-222-1020# he gave me useless). Help!

I was on my way home from work, driving 70-75mph and out of nowhere, my power steering stopped working. I pulled over the best i could and called my boyfriend to come and get me. I cannot drive the vehicle because the steering wheel has to be forced and it is very difficult to move. I have read about two recalls regarding power steering.recall 14743- replace the power steering assist motor kit. My tahoe has never had the motor kit replaced. Recall 18289- update the eps software. This was done in may of 2019. I have addressed this issue with my dealership with no help. This is going to cost a fortune to fix and this should be covered under the recalls. The power steering is a known issue with gm and this issue almost caused me to get into a crash.

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.

On several occasions my care has given me a warning of stability rack issues and it will then just shut down. This has happened in the middle of turning into parking lots as well as backing into parking spots. I then have to roll down and up my driver side and passenger side windows before i can restart my vehicle.
At slow speeds the vehicle has shut off twice now, once in the middle of los angeles traffic almost causing us to wreck! we have taken it in for that and a popping in the stearing wheel and they told us nothing was wrong. It is a major safety hazard and would like to see something done about it!

During a low speed left turn across oncoming lanes of traffic, my 2015 tahoe had a complete loss of all power and stopped right in the middle of oncoming traffic. Luckily oncoming traffic was at a distance that they were able to notice my tahoe had died blocking their lanes, and they corrected their path to go around. We could have been injured at the least if oncoming traffic had not noticed that our vehicle died. I purchased this tahoe used 3 weeks ago and this has happened 5 times since. After investigating on the internet i located post saying this issue has affected over 1 million other 2015 tahoes.
While driving suspension system allows car to bounce badly, as if all shocks are not working, ltz model has mag ride active suspension. This problem is found to be common on 2015 tahoe and suburbans. Many forums on web have reports of this system failure at low milage. My tahoe was purchased new and has only 71k miles, no collisions or accidents. All maintained ce performed as needed.
I have a 2015 chevy tahoe.it has put my family in harms way a dozen times in the last 3 months.the vehicle shows a "stabilitrak" warning..then the steering wheel locks,the engine and all electrical shuts down,and you loose complete control over the vehicle at highway speeds.it has almost killed us.gm and our local chevy dealership are doing nothing about it.the chevy mechanics keep telling us there is nothing wrong with it.we are honeslty afraid the vehicle is going to kill us or someone else.
Vehicle randomly loses steering control and flashes warning lights. At times, xm radio will not play.at one time, vehicle shut off and would not resart for approximately 10 seconds.occasionally, the warning lights flash when making an adjustment like changing to bright lights or activating the turn signal.left turn signal disengages cruise when activated.gm has updated the software twice due to service over the above complaints.fixes problem for short amount of time.

Clicking /popping noise when turning left and or right at low speeds
The steering makes a grinding noise when turning to the left and right. The dealership could not get it reproduced, but finally received a bulletin advising to replace the steering bearings. This was done yesterday and it still does it today. I've read other complaints for the same thing on the internet, some mentioning it is unsafe to drive. The dealership has agreed to contact their engineers for additional guidance.however, i'm concerned about my safety of this ongoing issue.
While driving vehicle at slow speeds around turns we experience a loss os power steering and total vehicle power.this is a current recall which the local dealer is has checked and says there is no problem
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving approximately 30 mph, the steering wheel was turned in one direction; however, the vehicle proceeded in the opposite direction.

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.
While driving on the highway at high speeds, 70-80 mph, steering became extremely difficult for brief periods. Often times it was immediately following actuation of the automatic window switch. It was accompanied with a lot of the loss of electrical power, a flickering control panel, abs light, stab trak, brake assist, and park assist warnings. A/c would stop, radio would turn off, the dashboard would flicker, then i would have to acknowledge all of the warnings in order to clear the issue. Steering was tough, though controllable, but i question the ability of a less experienced drive to be able to handle the same problem at those speeds. This has happened before at lower speeds, usually while backing up to park. At lower speeds the suv would cut off completely. At higher speeds, the stall was recoverable, very fortunate in this matter. Unable to get the issue to repeat at the dealership and it is very inconsistent. Usually resets itself once the car is turned off and restarted.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While reversing the vehicle, the steering seized without warning. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the tie rod needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 80,000.
My vehicle is having a problem much like that from recall number 14743 product safety - loss of electric power steering (eps). On several occasions the vehicle has lost power steering and the dealership is telling me that my suv is not covered under this warranty. I feel that the same safety concerns posed with recall 14743 apply in this situation with mine and i do not feel they are taking it seriously. Also when this occurred i was on the highway the first time, the second time i was turning onto the street i live on, and most recently i was in the parking lot at target with my kids in the car with me. This last time i was actually about to turn into a parking spot when i lost power to the steering.
The contact called on behalf of her son who was the vehicle owner/driver of a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving at approximately 45-50 mph, the vehicle crashed into a tree.the contact was concerned that the collison may have been related to existing recalls on the vehicle. The driver was fatally injured.the contact was the mother of the driver. The contact stated that while her son was driving between 45-50 mph, he lost control of the vehicle, jumping a curb, and crashed into a tree. During the crash the air bags did deploy but the driver was not wearing a seat belt. The driver was fatally injured during the crash and sustained two broken legs. The contact stated that based on the police and ems reports received, the middle console had been ripped off by the driver during the incident in an attempt to brace himself for the collision. The report also mentioned that no tire skid marks were present at the scene. The vehicle was destroyed and towed from the scene. The contact stated that the event data recorder (edr) was destroyed. As a result, thecause of the failure was not diagnosed. The contact discovered that the vin was later included in nhsta campaign numbers: 18v586000 (steering) and 19v645000 (service brakes, hydraulic). The manufacturer was notified of the incident. The failure mileage was 50,000.
When turning the wheels or backingup there is a popping noise that sounds like it is coming from the front left and right wheels and you can hear it and feel it in the steering wheel
Power steering failed instantaneously while driving in traffic while making a left turn at 15mph on a city intersection. Luckily an accident was avoided. Took the car to the dealership for a diagnosis. Apparenly the steering motor has failed and in turn they recommend replacing the entire "steering gear" gm # 84368394 for $2250. Called gm, they stated that the car is out of warranty and this failure is considered normal wear and tear. There is an existing recall for the 2015 tahoe model, but this vin is not included so they will not cover the repair. The recall referenced is, nhtsa campaign # 4v719, gm recall 14743,
When i hit a bump the steering locks up for a quick second and all the warning lights flash quickly. The doors lock as well. It is usually when i hit a bump on the passenger side area. Voltage meter flickers and headlights dim.
2015 chevrolet tahoe:the battery indicator goes below the midpoint, then there are different alerts on the dashboard, i.e. Stabilitrak, brake assist, battery/power saver, park assist, etc. The a/c all of sudden blows hard with a display blink off, the steering wheel also gets hard to steer and then the vehicle cuts off on its own.the vehicle cutting off has happened mostly when we're trying to park and turning at slow speeds; however, it did happen once while we were stopped at a light and trying to turn into the turning lane and it shut off.the risk is a car accident causing bodily harm and/or property damage.i see recalls for the 2015 chevrolet tahoe for this same issue, but unfortunately for whatever reason, my particular vin was not included.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that there was an abnormal clicking noise when the steering wheel was turned in either direction.

The failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 21,084.
I am having an issue with my steering wheel. It started off as a fair click when turning left. With time it for progressively worse. Took it to the dealership and after 3 days they stated my steering bearing was bad and replaced it. No sooner after picking up my car (still in the dealership parking lot) i notice the same clicking noise in my steering wheel. It's now been 3 whole days and no one in the service department can find the issue. They do admit to hearing and feeling the clicking in the steering wheel but reassure me the vehicle is safe to drive and i can come pick up my car and not to worry about the problem. I feel it is an unsafe vehicle for myself and my family to be in. Can someone please advise me what to do. I refuse to pick up my car until the problem has been completely taken care of.
Total strut failure at 58k miles; making car hard to maneuver.dealership wants $1900 to fix the mag ride suspension, no powertrain coverage at all for this issue. Also, a bearing in the steering column has failed and there is no warranty coverage from that either.
In 2018 i bought this 2015 chevrolet tahoe.and like one month after i start having problems.

Is there any way to get my money back?.thanks

Having issues with braking. Occasionally at high speeds, but more often during lower speeds. The brake pedal becomes very hard to depress and meanwhile the vehicle is still moving, not allowing you to stop. Happens also going in reverse. Had a collision, hit the rear end of another vehicle yesterday morning during rush hour, 3/18/2019. I was slowing down to 15 mph, due to a red light, but brake pedal would not brake, becoming very stiff, making it impossible to brake, and stopped due to the collision. Luckily no one was hurt. Front body severe damage to my tahoe. Police report has been filed. We bought this tahoe in fall of 2017, and february 2017, took into the dealership due to the braking issues, nothing was found or done to the brake system. Tahoe is back at dealership as of today, and nothing has been found, according to chevy techs

The liftgate malfunction is both bizarre and dangerous.when opened it proceeds to drop about a foot quickly, enough to create serious head contact.it then proceeds to close without use of sensors, repeatedly pinning the operator against the back of the car.only with strength and agility did my wife manage to slide out the side.we are thankful that the only damage was a bruise on her leg.it could have been much worse for an older, less agile person.it happens when vehicle is stationary, on or off.the dealer plans to replace the liftgate actuator, but it will be at our expense.chevy has declined coverage because we are not the original owner, we did not buy it from a chevy dealer and we did not purchase extended warranty coverage.there is no recall outstanding so they have no obligation to help us.had my wife gone to a doctor for the bruise on her leg chevy's decision would have gone to a different supervisor, but we do not act that way.we are just grateful that she had the wherewithal to escape from a very dangerous situation.i have a video of the problem, but it is not in a format (imov) that can be uploaded here.i will hold on to it.
Frame rusting
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.

The manufacturer provided the contact with case number: 8-484-580-7149. The failure mileage was 72,000.
I was driving down the highway at about 70 mph and my wife looked in the passenger side mirror and saw the applique on the passenger side door behind the window (where the b pillar is) was loose and flapping in the wind. I had some tape in the vehicle so i pulled to the side, taped it down, and continued driving. I took the vehicle into the chevrolet dealer the next day and they said it is a common problem with the tahoe. The dealer said the design of the applique attachment was poorly done and when they replace them they now use a stronger attachment. The dealer found 2 other appliques loose and recommended replacing them as well before they flew off while driving and possibly causing a safety issue to someone behind my tahoe.
The exterior side panel that separate front and back of tahoe threatens to fly off during driving. It's primarily on highway driving from 50+ miles per hour. It's as if wind is getting under them and its always a concern they are going to fly off. We often are stopping and hitting it back in place. If it come off it will be a $130-180 piece each side and cosmetically ugly for our vehicle and a danger to other motor vehicles as a flying object.please recall this as we are hearing from dealerships it is a common part coming off of the tahoes. It is a common occurrence. It didn't happen just once.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that the liftgate sensor became inoperable whenever the sensor was touched.

I live in a fairly arid climate, where rain doesn't occur frequently.a couple of months ago, after my tahoe had been sitting in the rain, inoticed water dripping from the inside door pillar when i opened the door.i just assumed it was water than came in from the outside when i opened the door. Then about nine days ago, while driving in the rain, water began dripping from the top center console area, in a steady stream.when i took it into the chevrolet dealer they said that the seal on the hi-frequency antennae (shark fin antennae), over the driver's side was faulty, and that water was leaking in through it.since there was not a recall for my vin, and since rain was predicted to continue for several days, i had no choice but to pay $452.32 to have a new antennae installed. The service department did what they could to dry the area out in between the roof and the ceiling and left the cover off the side driver's airbag so it would dry, telling me to return in a week so they could replace the cover on the airbag.in addition to being out a lot of money, i am concerned about the side airbag possibly malfunctioning after being wet over a period of time.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. When the vehicle was pulled to a curb, the plastic wind deflector was placed too low (approximately eight inches from the pavement), making it difficult to pull away from the curb without pulling out the front fender. The failure recurred and the front fender was destroyed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to nhtsa to file a complaint. The failure mileage was 12,702.

I pulled into my driveway...the engine speed started increasing and simultaneouslythe brake pedal sunk into the floor and braking abilitywas lost.this happened about 4 feet from my garage door and this caused my truck into the garage door.i have a driveway video of me on the phone and then the car being accelerated through the garage door.
All 4 pieces of door pillar trim have come off or lose and banging against vehicle.
Bad vibration at speeds between 60 to 75 mph ( gm dealer has had car 3 times and replaced tires, road forced balanced, checked alignment with no success ) ; wind noise and buffeting inside car with all windows in the up position at speeds from 35 mph and up causing dizziness and nausea on longer rides. Exterior door plastic fascia becomes loose and falls off due to metal clip breaking off at the attachment point.

Has a problem in the suspension when you drive it jumps like an old truck. Recently replaced the front shock absorbers that we're covered by the warranty, but the problem still continues and it also feels too loose on the brakes. Another problem, recently went out to a store and when i reversedand i wanted to stop because a vehicle was coming, the brake pedal became hard as a stone and does not stop the vehicle no matter if you brake with all your strength the pedal becomes very hard and, now the problem is very constant.
Have a 2015 chevy tahoe ltz with only 35,000 miles on it. The vehicle started riding super rough, felt like it had no shocks when going over bumps or potholes. I took it to a local shop to have it looked at. Their mechanic said it looked like both rear shocks were leaking and needed to be replaced. I dd not believe them as the vehicle only had 35,000 miles on it. Took it to a certified chevy dealer and they told me the same thing. Of course, they said it was not covered under warranty. Come to find out, after looking at several forums, this is a common issue with the magnetic ride suspension in the high trim package tahoes and yukons and yet gm will not cover them under warranty.
2015 chevy tahoe ltz: condenser and compressor went out stopping any cool or cold air flow in middle of a june. Must order parts directly from gmc. Parts estimate $3,500+ labor estimate $780. What's wrong with this picture? it's a leased vehicle. Chevrolet won't cover.same 2015 chevy tahoe- at 111k, 4,5,and 6 gear failed. Transmission failed going up hill with my 2 year old in the vehicle! chevy only covered a portion leaving me a $2k bill in april 2017.june 2016- i had taken my tahoe (leased) only to one dealership when needing any maintenance. My records show i started complaining about sunroof bellows at 20k miles and the appliqus on both driver and passenger side doors. June @68k miles i had to replace sunroof, dvd player, bellows, and internal wiring. Also, drivers side strut. I spent over 2k on my tahoe, only to notice the dvd player is not working.... Again.
We own a 2015 chevrolet tahoe ltz and at 85,000 we had to replace both the front and rear shocks due to total failure.we paid a total of $3,200 for these repairs, as this was not covered under the power train coverage or our extended warranty.this is totally unacceptable by general motors.a technical service bulletin is not sufficient.gm should issue a recall, as well as provide compensation to those who have had to cover this expense due to gm's very poorly designed suspension system.
The magnetic ride struts on my tahoe ltd are failing. Seems to be a defective design. The discussion boards are full of failures beginning in the 30,000 miles. They also appear to be the most expensive strut on a chevrolet.same strut as a cadillac escalade or a gmc yukon denali. Which appear to have a high failure rate. Also found on higher end gmc and chevrolet pickups.
Horrible,horrible ride.front end very, very bouncy,i was just told i need both front shocks replaced,truck only has 60,000 miles.cost of repair is nearly two-thousand dollars.gm is aware of the problem and issued a bullitien but refuse to pay for repairs because it is out of original warranty.this is a common and frequent complaint with the ltz models,and is a major safety concern as the vehicle is hard to control.
Z95 magnetic suspension strut failed and leaking, making the ride very bouncy and uncrontrollable.this failed at about 65k miles.
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
I purchased my 2015 tahoe ltz in aug. 2018 with 59,582 mikes on it. My mileage is now at 73,504 & has recently started bouncing so bad when i am driving on a relatively smooth highway. Don't know what's going on with it but i suspect it's a suspension problem. It seems to get worse every time i drive since i first noticed it in may, 2019.i paid a lot for this car & expect it to last longer than 4 or 5 years. I've just read that this chevrolet vehicle has had 13 recalls which is absolutelynot acceptable. I would like for gm to recall these vehicles & repair the problem with the suspension since it could be hazardous.
The shocks/struts began leaking and are faulty. They needed to be replaced. The cost of the repair was over $3,000 because they are a special type. The garage that did the work said he talked to other dealers/garages and those are well known for going bad on the 2015 tahoe. A $70,000 vehicle should not need shocks/struts replaced within 5 years. And this vehicle has 15 recalls already. Can't this be classified as a lemon or something? this is ridiculous. And waste of my time and money to get all this stuff fixed. Thank you.
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.
My 2015 tahoe ltz, with 73,000 miles, started riding rough and had noticeable bounce as i drove. Took it to the dealer i bought it from and they told me the rear shocks were bad/locked out and needed to be replaced - estimate to repair is $1700.
Cabin vibration at highway speeds.after several attempts dealer said there is no fix and is not looking to correct issue.
While driving suspension system allows car to bounce badly, as if all shocks are not working, ltz model has mag ride active suspension. This problem is found to be common on 2015 tahoe and suburbans. Many forums on web have reports of this system failure at low milage. My tahoe was purchased new and has only 71k miles, no collisions or accidents. All maintained ce performed as needed.
Suspension bounces so badly that the vehicle becomes unstable and difficult to control. Failure happened around 75,000 miles while traveling on the interstate and is a very common failure among the tahoe, suburban, and yukons. Gm has failed its customers by not covering the defective suspension under these vehicles. This will be the last gm vehicle that i purchase, i have had nothing but trouble from this car.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving various speeds on different occasions, the driver's seat moved backwards and forward uncontrollably. Also, the front shocks failed without warning. While driving at normal speeds, the contact felt every bump and dip in the road. The vehicle was taken to buckalew chevrolet (1100 interstate 45 s, conroe, tx 77301, (936) 657-4462) where the contact was informed that the module that controlled the seat movement needed to be replaced and that the shocks also needed replacement due to normal wear and tear. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 68,000.
Suspension seized (became violently unstable when going over the slightest of bumps) first year, took car back to dealer three times until finally diagnosed and fixed, power lock on rear driver side door does not lock/unlock every time since first year purchased and at 40,000 ac stopped cooling.this vehicle has been trouble from the beginning!
Vehicle began riding rough at 58,000 miles. Due to covid we just brought the vehicle in to the dealer and found out the front shocks are leaking and the rear bags needn't to be replaced as they have holes in themthey want 2900 tofix.totally unacceptable there have been numerous complaints on this issue.this is a 70k vehicle with 68000 miles.i have owned 3 new tahoe's in mylife andnever had this problem.if gm does not make this right this is the last gm product i ever purchase and if the dot does nothing about it they are just as bad.
I have had this vehicle since june 2015 and had the tahoe with autonation chevy on several occassions.at one point it was there for almost 3 months.the front of the vehicle shakes at 77 mph on the highway.the entire front end shakes.they have changed the motor mounts, rear tires and they have aligned vehicle. They have found nothing.they offered to do a buy back but of course with a loss to me and i feel this is not my problem.i did not build the vehicle.now after to speaking to the new service manager at my dealership they say there is an engineering defect.please fix it is all i ask of chevy.can you please help???
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!
Our struts went out at 60k miles. We only owned the car for about 6 months and we bought it from a chevy dealership with only 1 other owner. We had to have them replaced and it cost $1500. We will never buy another chevy again. My husband's silverado has been nothing but a money pit as well. These expensive cars should last.
Car was vibrating when getting above 45 miles per hour. Thought wheels needed to be balanced. Once balanced,pulled trailer and vibration was extremely worse. Vibrating like we had the back window rolled down, but all windows were up. Went back to dealer in newnan georgia and they hooked up a trailer to another vehicle and it had the same problem. We were told they could not do anything about it. We then bought new tires thinking it would help the issue. We have since bought two sets of tires, constantly having the vehicle tires rotated and balanced trying to minimize the vibration. We are currently up to 53k on the vehicle and very disappointed in the vehicle with the luxury price we paid. This all happened upon purchase.
My 2015 tahoe ltz has a very rough ride, it bounces and now there is a noise in the front end while in motion, and after having a diagnostic it has been found that my right strut has leaked fluid and has to be replaced. I find it funny that this is the most expensive vehicle i have ever purchased, and it has been in for recalls more than any other vehicle i ever owned.you pay somewhere in the sum of $63,000 for a luxury vehicle, you expect more from chevy than not to have the problems i have had. It just doesn't seem fair.
Total strut failure at 58k miles; making car hard to maneuver.dealership wants $1900 to fix the mag ride suspension, no powertrain coverage at all for this issue. Also, a bearing in the steering column has failed and there is no warranty coverage from that either.
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.
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 contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle started to bounce and was unable to be driven safely. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to marthaler chevrolet of worthington (1627 oxford st, worthington, mn 56187), to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the shocks needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 77,000.
Vehicle randomly brake occasionally while driving. Stabil trac error.
Strut leaking (front driver/ passage side) and shocks malfunctioned (rear).driving on a fairly smooth highway, doing approximately 70 mph when i noticed that my suv was bouncing and experiencing a rough ride.pulled over at the next gas station and noticed the rear of the vehicle was a little higher than normal.immediately took the suv to the closest repair shop (firestone). The mechanic diagnosed the problem as both struts were leaking and the shocks appeared to be extended.this vehicle has never been off road or towed anything (except a bike rack).took the vehicle to a chevy dealership (this was saturday).the dealership comfirmed both front struts were leaking and estimated that it would be approximately $1700.00 plus a front end alignment (diagnostic costed $138.00). The issue with the rear shocks was not diagnosed and i was asked to bring the vehicle back on monday morning but i was in route to a youth softball game in another city.so my family and i suffered the rough ride and returned the vehicle to my local dealership, which diagnosed the rear shock issue as a malfunction and both shocks need to be replaced with a cost of $1700.00.now, that is a total repair equaled $3600.00.gm should look into the suspension issue with the tahoe.it is a 2015 tahoe ltz. It is difficult to believe that the entire suspension system would go out on a vehicle with than 62k miles.gm look into this issue.
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.
Suspension suddenly became very bouncy when driving on a city street. Steering wheel is affected by bumps in road, turning the vehicle into other lanes of traffic unless holding onto he wheel tightly. More difficult to control. Vehicle leans when turning. Does not feel safe to drive. I am not driving the vehicle until repaired.shocks are leaking and beginning to seize. Vehicle only has 39,990 miles. Not covered by warranty. Searched the web and this issue seems to affect all tahoe, escalade and yukon models along with chevy and gmc trucks with the magneride suspension.
My wife and myself purchased a newchevrolet tahoe ltz in 2015.the first month the a/c had to be replaced, rac and pinion steering and rear shocks.the warranty covered the cost.2016 of january the a/c started making noises and not cooilng, the front struts magnetic,ball joints and steering rack pinion went out.third occurrence was in 2017 december the front magnetic structs again.we have had problems with this new vehicle from the time we purchased it.the suspension is horrible and we later found out there are hundreds of others with the identitcal horrible suspension problem.this vehicle is presently at 62k mile and needs front end suspension replacement.the warranty do not cover pass three years.there should be a recall on this horrible general motors product.the vehicle is presently inoperable because of suspension problems and gm will not stand behind there product.
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.
I own a 2015 chevy tahoe ltz which i bought less than a year ago and after several months i noticed that it handles bumps poorly and does a lot of bouncing. When i had new tires put on the service tech mentioned how poorly it drives and said the struts would need replacing on the front for sure and eventually on the back as well. I received my first quote at $2200 just for the front which is insane so i decided to do a little research and quickly found it this is a very common problem for this vehicle. I am very displeased with finding out this information for spending the amount of money i did on this luxury vehicle. I've price shopped around and have not found anything any cheaper. I am also worried if i let it go for too long what could potentially happen and will it lessen the life of the very expensive brand new tires i just put on. This is ridiculous and chevrolet/gm needs to do something to make this right.
Rear suspension shocks locked up with48,000 miles and under 3 years.had to replace rear shocks causing rough ride.
The suspension on my 2015 chevy tahoe make the truck very bouncy. I have approx. 75,000 miles on it. When going down the road i feel every bump in the road and when going into curves it feel like i may loose control of the vehicle. With all the complaint about the suspension on this vehicle i feel that chevy should have a recall on this issue.
I have taken my 2015 chevrolet tahoe in several times for a vibration issue.first time it was mentioned on an invoice was august of 2016 but had been going on for months before.my vehicle vibrates at about any speed.the first time to the dealer they said they didn't think there was a problem.the second time they said that it is the suspension but there is nothing they can do about it.the vibration has made parts of the vehicle to rattle.the third time to the dealer they had to fix a light issue and a rattle between the passenger from door and back door.the vibration happens every where at every speed.scariest on the highway though.feels like the vehicle is going to "crack" in half.scary.
The vehicle is very bouncy and hard to steer. Took it to a dealership they advised it needed new shock absorbers. This is a common problem among 2015 chevrolet tahoe ltz, surburban ltz, cadillac escalade and gmc denali that general motors is failing to take ownership of.
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.
It's rides like a horse buggy very rough feel ever bumps in the road hadn't had it long road good when we bought it . Sometimes the brakes seen to be sluggish ,all this happen on a trip to the mountains
Vehicle has 65k on it. Most recently the front end started bouncing severely during normal driving conditions and bounces violently over rough road conditions. The vehicle can be difficult to control, especially for my wife, who is smaller in stature. I was advised by my mechanic that the front shocks/struts are leaking. Cost estimates are 1670 to 1920. Vehicle will be fixed on 9/27/19 because it cannot be driven otherwise.
There is a drone or buffering sound while driving between 40-55 mph.regardless of the road quality.this is on a 2015 chevy tahoe ltzthe dealer looked at it and said it was a tire out of balance, but it still makes the same sound.
At around 59,000 miles the rear suspension was very bouncy and a hard ride. Took to the dealership and they advised the rear shocks had extended out and stuck. Stated this is an ongoing issue with this year model of vehicle 2015 tahoe ltz. The left front strut was also leaking.was advised this system is controlled electronically to adjust the ride and have all four strut/shocks work in conjunction with each other to level out for a smooth ride. Well $1900.00 dollars for the rear installed and about $1000.0 for the front. So $3000.00 dollars later no covered under warranty on a vehicle with less then 60k miles is not good. Hell my first set of factory tires out lasted the mechanical shocks/struts. It appears chevy has a issue they are not willing to fix or do a recall notice on. This could be a safety issue in vehicle handling in curves and hills?
Front and rear shocks had to be completely replaced. 2 weeks later the transmission completely went out and have to be replaced. This vehicle has only 80,000 miles.

My ac condenser is cracked and leaking freon and is not blowing cool air. I've read multiple thousands of complaints about the same problem on this model tahoe and am wondering why there isn't a recall when so many are having the same problems with the condenser. Now i'm having to fork out $1200 to fix it on a newer model tahoe with low miles and it's rediculous when so many people are reporting the same thing! please give it a recall!
Took my vehicle to the dealership because the onstar light would switch between green and red, and my compass no longer works. Was told at the dealership that my high-frequency antenna was out due to outside water intrusion (ex.rain, snow, carwashes...)when you go online there are pages and pages of people with the same problem. With this problem your onstar, navigation, compass, and xm radio may have problems. My safety concern with this is the fact that people pay for onstar services and with the gm defect which was acknowledged with certain vin numbers but not all having the same issue is that if i am in an accident or an area where cell service is not available i will not be able to receive the help i need for services i am paying for due to an issue in manufacturing. Gm issued a customer satisfaction program where they fixed this issues invins they found to be affected; i believe they should be repairing all vehicles that are having the same exact issue. As of now, onstar cannot locate my vehicle and if i were in danger they would not able to respond to me nor my family.
A/c condenser failed on a 2 year old chevrolet tahoe. Part is on national backorder as so many people are having the issue. I was told 1-2 weeks for them to get the part but it has now been 2 months with no eta available. Heat index has now reached 105-110 multiple days in houston and is dangerous to drive the vehicle with no a/c in this condition. Chevrolet customer care has been contacted multiple times and will not provide rental car, compensation, or any solution to the issue and stated that i am not the only one with the problem.
I purchased my vehicle used onoct 14 2016. I drove it for about 3 weeks in local traffic with speeds 60mph and below with no issues. I then went on a road trip on nov 7 2016 where i used major interstates that required speeds between 70-75 mph. As soon as i hit the major interstates i noticed something was not right. When the vehicle was set to cruise between 70-75mph and the vehicle reduced from v8 mode to v4 mode the interior of the vehicle began to vigorously shake. The handling and wheel to pavement contact felt stable so i continued my 600 mile trip. At times the shaking conditions made me feel dizzy and somewhat nauseous. I immediately upon arrival at my destination scheduled an appointment at a certified chevy dealer and was seen nov 14 2016. They test drove the vehicle for about 22 miles and were able to duplicate my problem, however through troubleshooting and inspection could not find anything wrong. I called the number in the warranty manual and started a claim and their resolution wasthe vehicle was operating as designed,but the gm advisor did say there was a knownissue? however they could not tell me why the design made the vehicle do this . To me it sounds like it is a flaw in the design and gm does not know why yet. Through further research i found multiple post and discussions with the same complaint as well as a fox news report where gm spokesman tom wilkinson stated gm knows there is a problem and gm would work with customers case by case to resolve the problem. In my case the resolution was to tell me thats what it was designed to shake. I certainly dont believe what they are telling me . After serving this country in two different combat zones to protect our freedoms its disappointing to know that gmwont stand behind their product as i have stood at the frontfor this country.l can provide video and dealer service documents upon request.
Our tahoes automatic liftgate stopped working. Took it to dealership and had it checked. Their records showed there had been a recall and that they had already repaired the strut. They did a diagnostic and said it wasn't the strut/ actuator . He said it was the module and that it needed replaced with an estimate of $750. We ordered the module and put it in and it didn't fix it. After replacing that the technician said it was the motor/lock not showing any power, so we ordered that and it didn't fix the problem either. Last we replaced the strut/actuator and it fixed the problem. The dealer won't admit any wrongdoing but we don't feel that a recalled problem should have cost us anything.
Vehicle is equipped with chevy mylink infotainment system in which controls can be access via touchscreen and buttons on the center console. System ramdomly and erratically changes settings such as radio stations, bluetooth settings, language settings, media settings, navigation and screen would freeze which makes system unresponsive to control buttons when pressed. This issue was brought to local dealer's attention and was informed that the computer board needs to be replaced and since the warranty is out, then owner would have to pay for the hefty $1000 plus parts and labor cost. This issue has stated affecting vehicle several months before warranty have expired but issue has progressively worsen since. This is a safety issue especially during operation of vehicle because it causes a lot of disrtractions and operator can easily lose focus and control in an attemp to troubleshoot the issue. Also, there is no option to power off the system while in operation or when the ignition is on.
Water infiltration into the driver/passenger compartments soaking the electrical system/headliner & dripping down into the interior on at least two occasions and video taped by my wife.the 2nd occurrencewas 'after' the vehicle went to the dealer to be fixed for this very issue. These instances happened during rain storms, believe once while driving & once while parked in our driveway. I am unsure of the service repair dates for these instances but believe it was in april/may/june of 2016, these service records were sent to the minnesota attorney general in a claim i filed in june 2016, of which that claim is being addressed by paul mueller of the consumer services division.previous to my filing with the atty gen i attempted negotiatins with gm, of which a gm case number was created.i purchased this vehicle new and after the water pouring in i'm very concerned with safety issues as i have had a tahoe burn due to water infiltration, of which was determined by state farm insurance.i'm very concerned with safety, i'm very concerned with future costs to fix anything these occurrences have caused, and, these instances have greatly reduced resale value of this new vehicle.i want gm to either replace this vehicle, or, give me a lifetime warranty for this vehicle for as long as we own it.
I initially noticed difficulty with braking while backing out of a parking space at a very low rate of speed. The brake pedal became hard and the vehicle continued to roll backward, with full weight on the brake pedal. Approximately one month later i was in bumper-to-bumper, stop-and-go traffic and the brake pedal again hard and the vehicle continued to roll forward. This issue did not occur during normal driving conditions, only at low rates of speed and with frequent, repetive stopping. I took the vehicle to a local chevrolet service department and they were unable to replicate the issue or identify the problem with diagnostic equipment. I was told by the service manager the problem was likely due to 'over use' of the brakes and the brake is designed to be 'pumped' rather than compressed for more than a few seconds. I took the vehehicle to a second chevrolet dealership. The service department replaced the brake booster vacuum pump and this seems have resolved the issue. I was unable to drive my vehicle for approximately 2 months due to fear the brakes would fail. The vehicle has 54,000 miles and was purchased new from a dealership.
A/c condensor: crack in condenser that caused refrigerant to leak out. A/c stopped cooling and was making a hissing sound when on. Had to have entire condenser replaced because leak was in a location that could not be repaired. I know this is a common problem and has been recalled on some vin's for the very same make, model, etc., but my particular vin has not received the recall notice.
Re:ac condenser. Im waiting now 5 weeks and still no part due to a national back order of this faulty condenser. Ac stopped working on a road trip with my kids and dog last month and i need to get home. It's unsafe to drive in 120 degree weather. The dealer told me a few weeks ago 50k people were waiting for a replacement. The specific part is faulty and gm needs to be held accountable.
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.
The air conditioner stopped working late in 2019. It started getting cold out so we didn't need it at the time. Covid 19 hit and i didn't drive the car for weeks on end. So didn't need ac. When we did have to use it the ac was blowing hot air. There was an extended warranty for 5 years 60k miles that we did not know about. We never received information on it. We have been to the dealer many times for other service related stuff over the years and no one ever mentioned or even checked to see if the ac unit was not working. We contacted the dealer to fix it under this warranty sometime in may or june of 2020 and was told no that this extended warranty ended in feb 16, 2020. Contacted gm and asked the same thing. Good faith help would have been real nice. We are a few months over the 5 years, but well under the 60k miles. Is there anything we can do to get this covered under this warranty or get a recall on it.i have seen many many many people complain about the same thing as i. The car is a little over 5 years old. The ac unit shouldn't have failed so soon. Now i have to pay well of 1000 to fix it out of my pocket. I know not a safety issue, except heat exhaustion.....please do a recall on it, please!
There is a known problem with the a/c condenser in the chevrolet tahoe 2015.the ac will just stop working and blow hot air. They have had this problem with a leaking condenser for quite some time but have not issued a recall. The wait to get the part is 8-12 weeks which makes the cars unusable in the summer months. The cost for repair is $1200. They know this is a problem yet they continue to sell their used tahoes with these faulty condensers. I believe is this is fraudulent. I am still waiting to get mine fixed. They redesigned the part to fix the problem but the backlog is so long and they are using them to manufacturer their new cars versus servicing their existing client base. If you google it, you will find crazy stories of people trying to get this problem fixed for months and dealing with no ac in states with high temperatures such as texas and nevada. I believe they use these in their 2015 silverados and 2015 suburbans. Calls to corporate chevy did nothing to help. He just told me he handles these calls all day long for ac issues. I would happily join a class action law suit to push them to do the right thing.
While driving on the interstate, the air conditioner stopped cooling and started blowing hot air. The interior lights started flashing like astrobe light. I have scheduled an appointment with the service department where the vehicle was purchased. The current mileage is 44,790
Since purchasing my vehicle in 2016 i have had multiple issues. I have always noticed a drip of oil in my garage that wasn't consistent and when telling my dealership about it they stated they would look into it and found nothing. I was driving down the road and the side door black fascia flew off, the dealership replaced 3 stating it was still under the 34k warranty. I had requested they replace/secure the 4th and was told it was fine and didn't need replacing. I returned for an oil change about 6 months later and reported the one that was not replaced is now loose and was told by the dealership i was out of my warranty period and would be charged an hour labor as well as parts, costing roughly $120.00. I then had my ac go out in summer of 2019 and had that replaced supposedly a recall. When i took my car to the dealership for an oil change in fall 2019 i mentioned my car was not stopping properly while braking and they informed me there was a current recall that would fix the issue and that was performed. I was still noticing the braking issues. In nov.2019 i started to experience misfiring with the transmission and not shifting correctly. I made an appointment with the dealership and on the way to the dealership it worsened and i had to get it towed. I was informed i would not get a loaner car as all of theirs were out to people with parts required without an eta from gm. I was called 4 days later as i had not heard back and was told my car needed a replacement transmission as well as a new vacuum pump as this had failed and is the reason for the hard braking. The transmission was replaced and i was told to pick up my vehicle because the vacuum pump is on back-order without an eta and "i still have my abs that will assist with stopping".
2015 chevrolet tahoe:the battery indicator goes below the midpoint, then there are different alerts on the dashboard, i.e. Stabilitrak, brake assist, battery/power saver, park assist, etc. The a/c all of sudden blows hard with a display blink off, the steering wheel also gets hard to steer and then the vehicle cuts off on its own.the vehicle cutting off has happened mostly when we're trying to park and turning at slow speeds; however, it did happen once while we were stopped at a light and trying to turn into the turning lane and it shut off.the risk is a car accident causing bodily harm and/or property damage.i see recalls for the 2015 chevrolet tahoe for this same issue, but unfortunately for whatever reason, my particular vin was not included.
Onstar antenna, gps, microphone failure
2015 chevrolet tahoe was parked on moderately sloped driveway. Engine was not running. Vehicle transmission shifter was in "park" position. Vehicle spontaneously rolled back several feet, and crashed into another parked vehicle. Other vehicle also owned by me. Substantial damage to both vehicles. Not influenced by driver. After some research it is my belief the apparent problem with the transmission/software. I did find where there was a recall #14192 for this issue.
2015 chevy tahoe ltz: condenser and compressor went out stopping any cool or cold air flow in middle of a june. Must order parts directly from gmc. Parts estimate $3,500+ labor estimate $780. What's wrong with this picture? it's a leased vehicle. Chevrolet won't cover.same 2015 chevy tahoe- at 111k, 4,5,and 6 gear failed. Transmission failed going up hill with my 2 year old in the vehicle! chevy only covered a portion leaving me a $2k bill in april 2017.june 2016- i had taken my tahoe (leased) only to one dealership when needing any maintenance. My records show i started complaining about sunroof bellows at 20k miles and the appliqus on both driver and passenger side doors. June @68k miles i had to replace sunroof, dvd player, bellows, and internal wiring. Also, drivers side strut. I spent over 2k on my tahoe, only to notice the dvd player is not working.... Again.
Air conditioner stopped working at 45,000 miles on 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The dealership recharged the a/c unit and refilled the freon. I paid $200 and after 3 days the air conditioner stopped working again.i have to take it back for a second repair. This should be a recall the hvac should not stop working after 45,000 miles
My a/c condenser stopped working on 07/03/2017. I took my truck in to the dealer where i leased the truck, auto nation of pembroke pines, fl. I was promised the part will be in 3-7 days, it is now 3 weeks, i have spoken to upper level management and i called the manufacture gm. I must say, customer service has been pissed poor. I never received a call from senior management at gm. I was told by my senior advisor at the dealer that the condenser was shipped but it is only available to law enforcement officers. This is a truck i only had for two years. I just found out the 2015 tahoe is the worse model year with complaints. I am very disappointed with gm.
Air conditioning does not work with only 37000 miles and interior lights flash every time i touch the brake pedal or turn signal.
Stabilitrak comes on and locks the steering while driving. It has happened approx. 4 times and the dealership doesn't know why, nor have they resolved the problem. Water keeps getting in the vehicle and the dealership can't figure out where it's coming from either. They have tried 6 times
The ac condenser has a leak and there is no option for a replacement condenser as they are on national backorder with no eta and could take up to 120 days to get a replacement part. So gm expects my family of 5 which includes 3 kids under the age of 8 to drive a vehicle for an entire summer in south carolina with no ac.
Seal around fin antenna leaks. Comes down by visor down side panel into driver seat. Vehicle was sitting still at the time. We had a rain event.
I have purchased this car with certified warranty. While driving the vehicle, the rudder became rigid; the crane took him to the dealer, there they changed a computer, that was march 20. Then march 27 return with air conditioning problems, today he continues in the workshop.
I been having my truck for 2 years and brakes keep going out and the air condition keeps going out. I have two friends the same vehicle with the same problems. This is ridiculous i see no recalls on that. And i've seen on the reviews of this vehicle and its not just me there's people out there with the same problem that i am having. This could cause a really bad accident the brakes keep going out i am not the only one with this problem. Please take in consideration that everyone has families. And accidents could cause us to lose our family just for a simple brakes that have not been recalled. And also, we just cannot keep affording to fix the air conditioning this truck is not even old enough to be giving us these problem. Thank you
I own a 2015 tahoe that i really want to like, but the problems have been one after another! i have had my window panels replaced 3 times. My dvd player stopped working. My a/c just had to be repaired for a leaking condenser, and now my back hatch won't open due to the motor going out. Oh...and i almost forgot i have been without onstar/ gps for about a year now because that is also broken.
First off, my dome lights. They flicker on and off every time i hit my breaks or every time i turn my left blinker on. Secondly, my air conditioner! i live in a very hot and humid state. I have already fixed the a/c in my tahoe once at the beginning of the summer. Now i am having the exact same issue as i was then.
I own a 2015 tahoe and live in the pacific nw (ac used three months out the year, maybe).eight months ago (end of last year warm season) the ac stopped working, of course it is out of warranty paid over $850 at local chevy dealer to put in new condenser. Go to use ac for first time this season and it stops working, same thing. Take it to same dealer and i am told that now the compressor is leaking at a tune of $960!! this is absolutely craziness, the ac is a new vehicle should not be going bad. No accidents or any reason this is happening. I bought chevy believing i was buying quality. I have kids in sports and drive a lot so it is important to be safe and comfortable.i am a single mom and i have never had trouble like this with a new car. Checking with three different dealers/automotive ac repair companies i was told by all three that this should not be occurring in my very new and expensive vehicle and that it is likely the condenser was not bad in the first place and was the compressor all along and once refilled with freon it worked for a bit but now leaked out again and i am asked to pay the labor all over again. Very very unhappy customer and feeling like chevy isnot a good product, never any issues like this with honda or toyota i have owned- normal stuff and if accident or mechanical stuff, brakes, yes all that happens, but ac in a newer vehicle-2 xs in less than 1 year, no!#takenforaridebychevy#faultyproduct #chevydisspointing
I have a 2015 chevrolet tahoe, i took to the dealership for a recall, ask if there was anymore, i was told no! now my a/c is blowing hot air. I went to dealership to get freon, i was then told my a/c condenser was cracked. When i ask about recall i was told "no it is a special coverage that you have to ask for?? now my tahoe has 60,195 and i was informed it was to late to get help with.. How does that work, i have not been notified my tahoe has anything wrong with it but i have to bring it to your attention first?? please help me understand this. I spent 52 thousand dollars on this vehicle and i have to tell you what is wrong you can't tell me?? i live in mississippi where it is very hot and humid and this tahoe is unsafe to drive in these conditions. I will never purchase another one and i have purchased 5 prior to now. Please explain this to me
Heavy moisture is accumulating in the front left headlight with no cracks in the light.it is causing the left front turn signal to malfunction with a warning on control panel.this is dangerous to driving when making left turns with no front turn signal and will cause an accident eventually to some owners who cannot afford to get it fixed.chevy will not take ownership of faulty design, part, or system and wants owner of car to assume responsibility for repair costs which are very high on these faulty parts.the extended warranty we purchased does not want to pay for repair either why should the owner who has no control over the installation of defective system have to pay for it ?please help save lives from potential crashes.

Having issues with braking. Occasionally at high speeds, but more often during lower speeds. The brake pedal becomes very hard to depress and meanwhile the vehicle is still moving, not allowing you to stop. Happens also going in reverse. Had a collision, hit the rear end of another vehicle yesterday morning during rush hour, 3/18/2019. I was slowing down to 15 mph, due to a red light, but brake pedal would not brake, becoming very stiff, making it impossible to brake, and stopped due to the collision. Luckily no one was hurt. Front body severe damage to my tahoe. Police report has been filed. We bought this tahoe in fall of 2017, and february 2017, took into the dealership due to the braking issues, nothing was found or done to the brake system. Tahoe is back at dealership as of today, and nothing has been found, according to chevy techs
The a/c compressor failed from a melted clutch. I took my tahoe in for a alignment and the a/c was working fine 2 days later i had to take the tahoe back to the dealer because the alignment felt off. The dealership checked the alignment and didn't find anything wrong with it. I picked up the car and noticed the a/c was no longer working. I took the tahoe to another dealership to have it looked at because the previous dealership assured me they didn't cause the issue even though it happened right after i picked up the tahoe, and the a/c was working when i brought the tahoe into the first dealer ship to have the alignment checked again. Our tahoe only has 50k miles and this issues should not be happening. I have read online and there has been many a/c issues with these model year tahoe and gm even issues and extended warranty on certain issues with a/c, but there have been many complaints similar to mine and gm has yet to address them
The 2nd row dvd screen went black. I paid too much money and continuously drive gmc vehicles to deal with this problem i hardly use it an this has happened to lots of people. If your paying this much for a car, truck, etc it should be worth it not a piece of junk.
Wind buffering inside cabin at speeds between 30-45mph.this is accruing with all 4 windows up. Feels like a booming sensationthis is causing major health issues, ear pressure, dizziness, nasusa.
Ac went out in mid-may.dealership states it's a condenser issue.national back order because so many have had same issues.bad weld on part and oem is now out of business.been waiting for almost 2 months for part to come in.vehicle out of warranty, gm recognizes issue with part but will not issue recall.i drive a ton for work (in a suit) and have my 3 year old son riding at all other times.gm will not offer courtesy vehicle and wants to stick me with $1200 bill.they know there's a problem and will do nothing about it.
My a/c condenser went out on july 21, 2017 while i was driving it. My 2015 tahoe ltz only has 21,000 miles on it. It's covered under warranty, but i've been given no estimate on the part delivery.driving a courtesy vehicle, chevy malibu, for the foreseeable future. This should be a recall. I was told by gm that this is not a widespread issue. I've read otherwise.
While driving 10mph or less the vehicle will not stop the brakes are very are and stuff will not allow you to stop nor while reversing! i've almost hit someone walking and someone car! i ran into our industrial fan in our garage because i couldn't stop. We almost lost our lives twice while my 7 year old daughter was in there becywe couldn't break. I've called dealerships and gm bout problems and they stated that they've had several complaints about it but it's not recall and that can not reimburse me especially if i ket a third party fix it. I'm unemployed and pay a note on this vehicle. I've had problems since i purchased it brand new! also the rear camera never work it barely work it's a very small one the dealership said they will install the regular one in that every tahoe has because mine has a defect and it's not the touchscreen that all tables have and no parts for this one but gm wouldn't agree with it they've done everything to the back up camera and it keep going in and out and has to have updated my link radio. That's dangerous.as well as the brake cable keep slipping and causing major sqeaking when going over bumps speed bumps and etc. And the motor mounts still not fixed i've taking it several times about the major shake and vibration from it while at lights or still and they've changed them out shaved them down still no help so they were still waiting on gm to come out with a part to fix it. My warranty has expired nowthis all needs to be fixed and replaced i have a daughter and we are scared that something will happen. The brake issue had been going on for a year and eventually it gotten worse and couldn't stop at all. Brake pump and vacuum pump.what does it take for us to loose our lives for it to be fixed. I've had someone to fix the brake issues and it cost a lot and gm will not reimburse me please helpi have proof and receipts of everything.
Air conditioner stopped working. It is only blowing hot air.
I own a 2015 chevy tahoe lt 2wd. I noticed the ac was not blowing as cool as it normally does, then i started to notice a loud hissing noise in the cabin whenever the ac was turned on. Took the suv to the dealership and was told the condenser had a pin hole leak and it couldn't be repaired, the whole condenser had to be replaced. I was quoted over 1k for the repair because of the difficulty in accessing the part in the engine bay. I was told the whole front bumper and the front side body panel had to be removed in order to replace the condenser. I looked the oem part up online and it had a price of $140-$210. The suv just passed 50,000 miles, no accidents or other previous issues.
I have a 2015 chevy tahoe that just randomly stops in traffic. I have taken it to nelson hall chevy in meridian, ms and also toherrin-gear in jackson ms. They have both said they can't find anything wrong with the vehicle.i went to another dealership to try to trade the vehicle and they won't take it because they claim there is an issue with the transmission. I have taken it in four times for the same problem. The most recent time was on 5/21/2020.
The ac condensor went out.i've researchedand found hundreds of other 2015 tahoe owners with the same problem.gm knows they have a faulty condensor but refuses to do anything about it.
My a/c just stop work on my 2015 chevy tahoe ltand found out that it was leaking from the top front right of my condenser there is no damage to the condenser due to gm defective part. It was a recall but i never received any notice
The ac on my unit quit working and resulted in my having to replace the condenser and compressor.i was told it was due to a crack.
Bad vibration at speeds between 60 to 75 mph ( gm dealer has had car 3 times and replaced tires, road forced balanced, checked alignment with no success ) ; wind noise and buffeting inside car with all windows in the up position at speeds from 35 mph and up causing dizziness and nausea on longer rides. Exterior door plastic fascia becomes loose and falls off due to metal clip breaking off at the attachment point.
Wind noise and buffeting in cab driving distraction
The sunroof exploded for no known reason.no impact of anything.
I have had this vehicle since june 2015 and had the tahoe with autonation chevy on several occassions.at one point it was there for almost 3 months.the front of the vehicle shakes at 77 mph on the highway.the entire front end shakes.they have changed the motor mounts, rear tires and they have aligned vehicle. They have found nothing.they offered to do a buy back but of course with a loss to me and i feel this is not my problem.i did not build the vehicle.now after to speaking to the new service manager at my dealership they say there is an engineering defect.please fix it is all i ask of chevy.can you please help???
My wife's 2015 tahoe hydroplaned slid backwards into the median, hit a guard rail and rolled 3 times.all side curtain airbags deployed but not the front airbags.this was on 8/4/2017.then 2 weeks later we received a recall letter for the sdm software which controls the frontal airbags and seatbelt pretensioners.
Significant wind and pressure buffeting, noise and vibration at speeds above 35 mph. It is especially bad when a rear window is open or partially open.
Purchased 2015 chevy tahoe ltz new, 3 years ago. Air conditioning not working and told it needs a condenser.part is on back order with no delivery date available due to the high number of 2015 tahoes that are waiting for this part.went online to see if anyone else is having this problem with the same make/model/year and the number is astonishing.this was a brand new model and first year offered from chevy so there is obviously a manufacturing issue.car warranty is expired and was told part would be over $2000!
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.
Air conditioner has been messing up for a long time now. I bought it new and it's been a recurring issue. It finally stopped working completely. Of course i'm right past my warranty. It's been in the shop for five days now. They called today and said it's fixed. We got in and boom, still not working.
At low speeds my brake pedal would get extremely hard to push down causing the car to be difficult to stop.after turning off the vehicle and turning it back on it seemed fine.a few weeks went by with no issues and then it returned when backing out of my driveway.turned the vehicle off and on and it seemed to be working fine.another 3 days passes and then brake pedal gets hard and can barely stop the car causing a close collision.the service brake assist light comes on and the brakes are extremely difficult to push to make the car stop.drove the vehicle home carefully due to needing to step on the brakes extremely hard.replaced the brake booster and still not working.replaced the vacuum pump and line to fix the issue. This caused many close calls as the first time i was backing into a parking spot and almost hit the wall.the other times i was driving through a drive through almost hit the car in front of me and driving through a neighborhood towing and almost hit the car in front of me at the stop sign.
My vehicle randomly shuts off while driving,backing up, snd parking. When this happens all power is lost and unable to have caution lights on and turn back on for at least an hour. Dealership is unable to duplicate but when i drive the vehicle home it shuts off.
Suspension seized (became violently unstable when going over the slightest of bumps) first year, took car back to dealer three times until finally diagnosed and fixed, power lock on rear driver side door does not lock/unlock every time since first year purchased and at 40,000 ac stopped cooling.this vehicle has been trouble from the beginning!
Alarm will go out sometimes
My 4 wheel drive transfer case makes a high pitched noise when it is in 4auto and 4 high. Gm told me this is a characteristic of the tranfer case thats installed in my suv. Not all transference make this noise, the tahoe loaner car does not make this noise. My bothers 2015 silverado made the same noise in 4 auto and high
Wind noise, cab buffeting
A/c rear went out. $1100 to replace. Decided to disconnect rear a/c (cost $498) until a recall could be established and attend to common problem with 2015-2016 tahoes. Chicago (nbc channel 5) news ran an investigatory news story on a nation-wide problem with a/c on gm 2015-2016 tahoes. Gm was contacted and agreed to look into "complaint" no recall yet....?!
The dashboard on our 2015 chevrolet tahoe lt has large cracks extending from the middle of the dash to the instrument panel.
In start of summer 2015 atac quit working put freon now in hot days it takes 15 to 20 minbefore it blows cold air
A/c condenser.the a/c in my 2015 chevy tahoe has gone out twice is the past two-and-a-half weeks.the first time they found that the freon was gone.they checked and could not locate any leaks.the recharged the system and replaced freon, adding dye to the system to identify future leaks.two-and-a-half weeks later, my freon was completely gone again and the dye revealed that the leak was due to a faulty a/c condenser.the internet is full of thousands of complaints regarding this same issue on this same year, make and model of vehicle, but gm\chevrolet refuses to issue a recall to rectify the problem.the part is on a nationwide backorder, and even my local chevy dealership cannot get the part.they can't even give me an estimate on when the part will be available.others are reporting wait times in excess of 60 days to secure a replacement a/c condenser.i cannot drive my vehicle until my a/c functions, given the extreme high temperatures in my area.when so many people are having this problem that you can't even get a part to fix it, this seems like an issue widespread enough to justify a manufacturer recall.my dealer has looked for oem, after-market, used, and rebuilt a/c condensers nationwide, and can't locate a single one to repair my vehicle.others online are reporting the same.force chevy to issue a recall and fix this situation!
I was informed that the air condenser is a faulty part and is not working on my vehicle. Also, gm has knowledge of this issue, for it is a known issue with chevrolet tahoe. The part to fix this problem is on back order, and there are no parts in production, for they have not come up with a remedy to replace the faulty part. Therefore, i do not have air conditioning within my vehicle. Thus, causing a safety issue, for it is 90 degrees where i live, and i have infant twins that are transported with my vehicle.
My tahoe just started to have a vibration issues at speeds for 60 to 75mph the whole cabin shakes and also a wind noise coming from the roof at speeds at 80 mph or higher my mileage is 21000 i get headaches when driving my chevy tahoe.
My 2015 tahoe ltz makes an extremely irritating rattling sound in the dash on the drivers side i can't figure out what it is
Ac condenser has a hole in it....stopped blowing cool air when i went out to lunch..no warning that anything was wrong.....no condensers to be had by dealership and our regular mechanic can't get one either because gm is purchasing all of them as fast as they are put on the shelf.back order problem and a nation wide known issue by gm.....and we were told it was not a recall or a warranty covered item.not cool......we live in texas.....90 plus degress right now.part can be welded but don't know if that fix will last....this should have been a recall issue if a nation wide problem and known problem.
The forward collision alert system just doesn't work. I cannot make it produce a collision alert no matter what i do. For example it is advertised to provide a heads up visual warning as well as an audial warning if i approach the car in front of me to rapidly. It does not the system also a green automobile icon when you are following closer than about 200 feet to the vehicle in front of you. The green icon is advertised to turn yellow if you follow too close. It does not. The only time that i have ever seen the red headsup display is when it is a false alert.all and all, this system which was touted to be a great safety feature is totally worthless.
Upon purchase of a new 2015 tahoe i observed the possibility of a problem with the forward collision alert system (fca). I reported this to the service manager at chevrolet. On 9 april 2015 the service manager, assistant service manager, master technician, and i took the vehicle for a test drive. While driving the vehicle at moderate highway speeds i demonstrated the various phases and operation of vehicle detection. The fca has plenty of sensitivity and detects vehicles in excess of the specified distance in the owner's manual which is not an issue. At a moderate closing rate between vehicles the instrument cluster icon changes from green to amber-orange which appears nominal. However, the red alarm heads-up windshield display, rapid high-pitched beeps and red icon are never activated until a closing distance about ~3 feet before a collision. There is virtually zero reaction time for a driver to brake the vehicle at less than one car length before going to red. In addition, the system is supposed to disengage the adaptive cruise control (acc). Considering time, rate, and distance this is ineffective as the mass and kinetic energy also needs to fully disengage before a potential collision. Because of the danger of creating a traffic incident the vehicle was not tested to the level of a full collision. I was informed by the service manager that there are no service bulletins, adjustments, or software patches that may correct this deficiency by the dealer. Gm stated that the system works as designed and delivered.the gm forward collision alarm (fca) delivered product appears to have a design deficiency and is an operational safety hazard waiting to happen. If the fca does not function properly then why introduce it to a consumer regardless of gm owner manual warnings about trusting alert systems.
At slow rate of speed, pulling into parking spot or in drive-thru lines, the brake pedal takes effort to push, ticking, clicking and grinding sound and the brake pedal begins to vibrate and very hard to push down to stop the vehicle.i see this has been recalled on other vehicles but not my particular tahoe ltz vin# this has been an ongoing issue since september 2019 after the car was purchased.
The contact owned a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. When the vehicle was shifted into drive, it independently accelerated. The vehicle sped from the contact's driveway into the front neighbor's yard before crashing into the neighbor's air conditioning unit. After the crash, the vehicle spun around until the passenger tire partially separated from the wheel well. In addition, the brakes failed at the time of the incident. There were deep skid marks visible on the neighbor's yard. The contact was transported from the scene via ambulance. The contact was treated for unknown injuries that required immediate medical attention. A police report was filed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was destroyed. The failure mileage was 50. Ma 10/14
I pulled into my driveway...the engine speed started increasing and simultaneouslythe brake pedal sunk into the floor and braking abilitywas lost.this happened about 4 feet from my garage door and this caused my truck into the garage door.i have a driveway video of me on the phone and then the car being accelerated through the garage door.
The battery power saver light came on then as backing out of driveway i lost power and steering control service brake assist light flashed as well as service stabilitrack and steering assist returned home bc i had five kids in vehicle and couldnā€™t risk it
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While the vehicle was stationary, the air conditioner failed. The vehicle was diagnosed as having a faulty air conditioner condensor. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 79,000.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving approximately 70 mph, the vehicle started bouncing. The vehicle was taken to mitchell automotive (1522 us-45 alt, west point, ms 39773) where it was diagnosed that the shocks were faulty and needed replacement. 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.
We were driving down interstate 95 on our way home from nc. We had just opened the sun roof in tilt mode and a couple of minutes later heard a loud gunshot like noise. We realized the sunroof had shattered. Glass fell all in the vehicle. There were cars traveling all around us, but we never saw any debri flying our way so it is unknown how this happened.
Contacts on rear window defogger/defroster separated.first on left rear (2017)then later on left rear (2018).
The male connector to the rear defroster/defoger female conector broke off on both sides.i was cleaning the bake window and just a mild touch and the copper male stud broke off in the copper female connector.
Gm condenser issue. Gm has a known issue with 2014-2016 models using a defective condenser. They have a new part # that is on national backorder and are unwilling to do anything for their customers waiting for the part. I was driving down the freeway, kids in tow, on a rainy muggy day in the pacific northwest last week. My windshield began to fog and with no condenser to run the ac i was unable to defrost my windows.unable to see a thing i had to pull over, on the freeway, carefully, and find a child's coat in the very back to wipe down the windows to crest visibility. This is a safety issue and clearly negligence on gm's part and they would be held liable if/when this creates a serious accident.
Sunroof shattered without warning or any apparent impact from outside source. Driving on clear highway, 55 mph
The entertainment systems was pulled down by my kids to watch a movie.when the dvd screen was pulled down it completely blocked the driver rear view mirror.as such....you cannot use the entertainment system and drive at the same time in the vehicle.
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.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. While driving approximately 40 mph, a booming sound suddenly occurred due to the sun roof exploding. Shards of glass fell into the cabin of the vehicle and made contact with the occupants. No injuries were reported. The sun roof was in the closed position when the failure occurred. The vehicle was taken to casey chevrolet (11700 jefferson ave, newport news, va) to be diagnosed, but they were unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 51,000.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact indicated that the top portion of the cargo window was unleveled and the glass was not secured and could potentially fracture. The passenger side of the cargo window was higher than the driver side and there was an exposed gap. The sun roof also leaked intermittently. The cargo door was welded poorly by the dealer and the trim on the door was deteriorating. The contact also stated that the paint was damaged on the hood and the paint was bubbling near the hinge on the front driver side. The dealer repaired the sun roof, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 165,000.
4th and most dangerous of 4 incidents in 3 weeks of ownership of 2015 chevy tahoe lt. Without driver instruction or interference the 2015 tahoe shifted itself into 4wd despite dial on 2wd. Steering difficult, car jerked, engine revved differently and trouble in reverse. No warning signals on display and i didn't know what was happening. Drove .5 mi., pulled over restarted, and then "4 wheel drive, dismiss" on display over steering wheel (no seat vibration, flashing lights as with lane drifting). Tried to "undismiss", consulted manual and ensured dial was in 2wd. Cut ignition off, restarted, same light. Test drove another 1 mi. To see if warning display malfunction...car jerked and steering as if non-power steering. Called dealership (rick hendrick's city chevrolet, charlotte, nc) and svs tech had never heard of such an issue and consulted other techs (on hold 15 min). Finally svs mgr said car unsafe to drive but to drive it home 'slowly" and they would tow to dealership and get me a loaner. Svs mgr, on 3rd phone call after i threatened to notify ntsb, said he was calling a gm "program mgr" to see about my car's "dangerous issue". After the car rolled when ignition turned off (radio and dash lights off too) and it hit a dumpster b/c we had not put it in park, yet ignition still turned off (luckily no one hurt but significant paint damage), key fob wouldn't program seats/mirrors, mylink wouldn't pair to my phone and now to learn there is a recall for rolling b/c car shifts into neutral? i am still driving loaner, no word from svs mgr, i refuse to drive the car again and gsm said i'd have to go to gm direct for a "buy back". The 1-800-222-1020# he gave me useless). Help!
I purchased a brand new 2015 chevy tahoe and use it here and there. As of now i only have 10,000 miles on it however the tires were balding around 6,000 miles and even maybe before then but i didn't think to take a closer look since it was brand new. Now it is very obvious they need to be replaced and i'm a gentle driver and keep it on smooth roads. After reading all the other complaints i am afraid the side walls will blow out on me or something even worse may happen. While driving the car shakes and pulls as it feels the alignment is off due to poor tires. I am not sure if the dealership would be responsible for replacing them or goodyear assurance fuel max (my brand of tires). I am surprised there hasn't been a recall this far as the issues are very apparent and quite dangerous. If there is info on what an owner needs to do in order to get the defective tires replaced where would one find that listed or who do they contact and/or will they be contacted after writing a complaint? not only does the car pull excessively but it makes a loud clicking noise when turning and sounds like it is directly from the wheels/tires, it doesn't hold up well in rain or snow due to lack of tire treadand the tire pressure is constantly decreasing no matter how many times i put air in so it's at the correct psi and every month, minus the first couple months i had the car, the onstar diagnostic review always shows the psi as being significantly low. I just don't want to find myself in a bad situation like something a lot worse than having my car just pull me into the other lane on a major highway aka have the sidewills completely blow out while on a highway and having only 10k miles on it this shouldn't be a concern. A quality tire should last for years and tens of thousands of miles before the tread is completely worn down.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated while driving 70 mph, the vehicle would shake violently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the front-end alignment was performed however, the failure recurred. The dealer was made aware of the recurring failure and informed the contact to replace the tires. The vehicle was taken to another dealer where the tires were replaced however, the failure persisted. The contact then contacted the first dealer and was informed by the dealer that the failure may be due to the front passenger's side bent rim and needed to take it to a rim specialist to be repaired. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 126,000.
