A RECALL WAS IMPLEMENTED IN 2008 TO ADD A FUSE TO THE CONTROL CIRCUIT HARNESS TO ADDRESS THE POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCES OF A PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD (PCB) ELECTRICAL SHORT. HOWEVER, THERE HAVE BEEN NEW REPORTS OF THERMAL INCIDENTS ON HWFS MODULES AFTER THIS IMPROVEMENT WAS INSTALLED. THESE INCIDENTS RESULTED FROM A NEW FAILURE MODE ATTRIBUTED TO THE DEVICE'S THERMAL PROTECTION FEATURE. THE SIGNIFICANCE VARIES FROM MINOR DISTORTION TO CONSIDERABLE MELTING OF THE PLASTIC AROUND THE HWFS FLUID CHAMBER.
IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THE HEATED WASHER MODULE TO IGNITE AND A FIRE MAY OCCUR.
DEALERS WILL PERMANENTLY DISABLE AND REMOVE THE HEATED WASHER FLUID MODULE. AN UPDATED PAGE FOR THE OWNER MANUAL WILL BE PROVIDED AND INSERTED IN THE OWNER MANUAL TO DOCUMENT THAT THE FEATURE HAS BEEN PERMANENTLY DISABLED AND REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE.

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING. AN INTERNET SEARCH OF THE PROBLEM REVEALS IT IS A DEFECT THAT IS AFFECTING MANY OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME VEHICLE.

TAKATA RECALL. ALSO, THE DASH OF THE TAHOE IS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES AND SEEMS LIKE A SAFETY HAZARD IF THE AIR BAGS WERE TO BE DEPLOYED. AFTER RESEARCH, IT SEEMS AS IF THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON THIS MODEL. I HAVE CALLED AND EMAILED GM ABOUT MY ISSUE, BUT HAVE NEVER RECEIVED ANY TYPE OF RESPONSE REGARDING THE DASH.
Other or unspecified, Apr 14, 2017
DASHBOARD CRACKING. NOTICE LITTLE CRACK ON 2013 BUT ON 2016 NOTICE MORE CRACKS. HEAR ON THE NEWS THAT CHEVROLET HAS A PROBLEM WITH DASHBOARD CRACKING AND TRY TO CONTAC THEM BUT THEY REFUSING TO FIX THEIR PROBLEM BECAUSE IS OUT OF WARRANTY. IT MAY A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE AIR BAG IS AROUND DASHBOARD. I JUST UPLOAD 1 PICTURE BUT THERE IS MORE CRACKS.

Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 11, 2017
MY 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE DEVELOPED A FUEL LEAK AT THE DISCHARGE OF THE FUEL PUMP. THE LEAK OCCURRED ON THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK DIRECTLY BELOW THE LEFT REAR PASSENGER SEAT. THE LEAK SPRAYED FUEL ALL OVER THE GAS TANK AND BOTTOM OF THE TRUCK BODY. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF THE ATOMIZED FUEL STARTING ON FIRE. THE DRIVER OR PASSENGERS COULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY BURNED. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE LEAK OCCURRED. I NOTICED A VERY STRONG SMELL OF FUEL, I PULLED OVER AND GAS WAS DRIPPING OFF OF THE FUEL TANK. THE FUEL LINE DEPRESSURIZED AFTER THE ENGINE WAS SHUT OFF AND CONTINUED TO SPRAY GAS FOR 10 TO 15 SECONDS.

"TAKATA RECALL" AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. MY 07 CHEVY TAHOE BURNS 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000-1500 MILES? DEALER TOLD ME THIS IS "NORMAL"?????? IT IS NOT NORMAL FOR ANY VEHICLE TO BURN THIS MUCH OIL IN SUCH LITTLE TIME!! CHEVY WON'T CORRECT THESE PROBLEMS! THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH SAME TROUBLES. YET STILL NO RECALL?????

NHTSA HAS CONTACTED ME TO SAY THAT MY VEHICLE'S TAMARA MADE AIR BAG IS PART OF A RECALL. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE DEALERSHIP THAT SERVICES MY VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR DIRECTIONS FROM GENERAL MOTORS ABOUT WHAT TO REPLACE OR REPAIR. THIS RECALL HAS BEEN IN EFFECT FOR ALMOST A YEAR.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE HAS FRACTURES OVER THE PASSENGER FRONT AIRBAG AS WELL AS ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THE FRACTURES ARE EMITTING A LOUD RATTLE FROM WITHIN THE DASHBOARD PREVENTING ADEQUATE CONCENTRATION WHILE DRIVING. THE FEAR OF A COLLISION RESULTING IN THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IS ONE THING BUT I ALSO FEAR THAT THE FRACTURES IN THE DASHBOARD SHOWS THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE DASHBOARD HAS FAILED AND PRESENTS A STRONG AND VALID POSSIBLY OF SAID FRACTURES SPLINTERING OFF AND BECOMING SHRAPNEL IN A COLLISION CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY. FROM MY UNDERSTANDING THIS IS A WIDELY KNOWN AND DOCUMENTED ISSUE WITH THE CHEVROLET TAHOE. I AM REQUESTING A FORMAL INVESTIGATION INTO THE FAILED INTEGRITY OF THE DASHBOARD ON THE CHEVROLET TAHOE, YEARS 2007-2013
Other or unspecified, Mar 25, 2017
MY VEHICLE HAS A CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AS WELL AS ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I AM CONCERNED IF I WERE TO GET INTO A WRECK, THAT THE DASH IS GOING TO SPLIT AND CAUSE BODILY HARM INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE CRACKING APPEARS TO BE CONTINUING TO SPREAD.

THE DIGITAL INFORMATION CENTER (DIC) LOCATED IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER (IPC) HAS STOPPED WORKING. HOWEVER, ALL OF THE NON-DIGITAL GAUGES SUCH AS SPEEDOMETER, FUEL, ETC STILL WORK PROPERLY. ALL OF THE DIGITAL DISPLAYED INFO SUCH AS ODOMETER, GEAR SELECT, MPG, TIRE PSI, ETC, IS NO LONGER VISISBLE. THIS DEFECT/MALFUNCTION OCCURRED UNEXPECTEDLY ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO. THE DEFECT/MALFUNCTION OCCURED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED (NOT MOVING) IN MY DRIVEWAY. I SIMPLY GOT IN AND TURNED THE KEY ON TO START THE ENGINE, AND THE DIC WAS NOTICEABLY BLANK. I LOOKED ON-LINE AND CALLED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS FOR INFO REGARDING REPAIRS,, AND I QUICKLY LEARNED THAT THIS EXACT DEFECT/MALFUNCTION IS EXTREMELY COMMON AMONG 2007-2016 CHEVROLET AND GMC VEHICLES. GM SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE BY ISSUING A RECALL. ALSO, FOR NO REASON AND WITHOUT ANY CAUSE, MY DASHBOARD CRACKED ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THIS IS ALSO A VERY COMMON DEFECT WITH MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE MAKE/MODEL. IF THE AIRBAGS WERE TO DEPLOY, WOULD THEY DEPLOY PROPERLY? AND EVEN IF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY PROPERLY, IM AFRAID SHARDS OF THE PLASTIC FROM DASHBOARD WILL SHOOT ALL OVER THE CAR RESULTING IN INJURY.

IT'S ACTUALLY THE VERY COMMON DASHBOARD CRACKS, WHICH INEVITABLY WILL EFFECT MY AIRBAG IN THE EVENT ON AN ACCIDENT. AFTER AN ACCIDENT HAPPENS, IT'LL BE TOO LATE. I PURCHASED A USED 2007 TAHOE WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY IN 2010. I'VE HAD THE VERY CRACKED DASH REPLACED 4 TIMES BY CHEVY WHILE UNDER WARRANTY - WITH THEM FIGHTING IT. IF POSSIBLE, I THINK THE VERY QUALITY OF THE PLASTIC DECREASED SINCE PROBLEMS AROSE ORIGINALLY. MY DASH IS NOW CRACKED WORSE THAN ALL OTHERS PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED BY CHEVY, ALLOWING ME TO SEE THE THICKNESS QUITE CLEARLY, AND IT APPEARS MUCH MUCH MUCH THINNER THAN THE ORIGINAL DASH. NO MATTER WHAT, THIS IS WRONG AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. NOT ONLY CAN THIS EFFECT MY AIRBAGS, BUT THE SHARP EDGES AND NATURE OF THE PLASTIC ALLOWS FOR IT TO BECOME DEADLY PROJECTILES. A $40,000+ VEHICLE SHOULD NOT HAVE THESE ISSUE. NOR SHOULD A $5 VEHICLE FOR THAT MATTER. CHEVY IS JEOPARDIZING THE LIVES OF NUMEROUS CUSTOMERS ALL IN THE HOPES OF SAVING MONEY - NOT LIVES!! PLEASE SEND CHEVY AN UNMISSABLE MESSAGE AND FORCE A RECALL. THIS WILL ONLY WORSEN AND INCREASE WITH TIME. DUE TO THE EXTREMELY POPULAR PROBLEM, THERE IS NO WAY CHEVY WILL BE ABLE TO DENY KNOWLEDGE AFTER SOMEONE IS KILLED. A LIFE WILL BE LOST DUE TO THIS. IT'S JUST A MATTER OF WHEN AND HOW MANY. IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO GIVE EXACT DATES AS TO WHEN EACH DASH WAS REPLACED OVER THE LAST 6 YEARS, BUT I'M ON MY 5TH DASH AND I'M NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER. MY CURRENT AND 5TH DASH HAS 3 CRACKS THAT GET CAUGHT IN THE WIND AND LIFT WHEN THE WINDOWS OR SUNROOF ARE OPEN. PRETTY CRAZY. PRETTY DANGEROUS. AND CHEVY HAS KNOWN ALL THESE YEARS!! SHAMEFUL. AND YOU ALLOW IT.
