GM IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006-2009 BUICK, LUCERNE; CADILLAC DTS; HUMMER H2; MODEL YEAR 2008-2009 BUICK ENCLAVE; CADILLAC CTS; MODEL YEAR 2007-2009 CADILLAC ESCALADE, ESCALADE ESV, ESCALADE EXT; CHEVROLET AVALANCHE, SILVERADO, SUBURBAN, TAHOE; GMC ACADIA, SIERRA, YUKON, YUKON XL; SATURN OUTLOOK; AND MODEL YEAR 2009 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A HEATED WASHER FLUID SYSTEM (HWFS). 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 SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON JUNE 11, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT BUICK AT 1-866-608-8080, CADILLAC AT 1-866-982-2339, CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, SATURN AT 1-800-972-8876, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463 AND HUMMER AT 1-800-732-5493 OR AT THE OWNER CENTER AT WWW.GMOWNERCENTER.COM.

Electrical system, Structure, Vehicle speed control, Mar 15, 2014
I WAS DRIVING ALONG AND THE SPEED CONTROL JUST STOPPED WORKING. I RESET IT AND THE FIRST BUMP IN THE ROAD IT STOPPED WORKING. WE TOOK IT FOR REPAIR AND IT WORKED FOR ABOUT A YR. THEN THE SAME PROBLEM. WE HAD IT FIXED AGAIN AND IT LASTED ABOUT ANOTHER 2 YRS. IT HAS AGAIN FAILED SEVERAL TIMES TO WORK AT ALL AND THEN YOU CAN GET IN THE CAR AND START DRIVING AND IT WILL WORK. CURRENTLY, IT WON'T COME ON AT ALL...THIS APPARENTLY IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CHEVY TAHOE AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT 60 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT DROPS QUICKLY IN SPEED. ALSO, OUR TAHOE IS GARAGE KEPT AND ABOUT A MONTH AGO, I NOTICED A CRACK IN THE DASH BOARD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. I SEE THAT THIS TOO IS A PROBLEM WITH THOUSANDS OF TAHOE. WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WHERE THE DOOR WINDOWS STOP WORKING, THE SEATS WON'T MOVE AND HAVE HAD THAT FIXED TWICE. WE ALSO HAVE HAD THE REAR DOOR STOP WORKING WHENEVER IT FEELS LIKE. WE HAVE HAD THAT IN TO THE DEALER ON THREE OCCASIONS. WE GAVE UP TAKING IT BACK. HERE AGAIN NO RECALLS. WE ALSO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM. THEY WORK WHEN THEY WANT TO. WHY HAVEN'T THESE ITEMS BEEN RECALLED BY GM. THE DEALERS KNOW THAT ITS A PROBLEM, BUT WE STILL HAVE TO PAY THE BILL TO GET IT FIXED. IF YOU LOOK ON HERE, THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUES. WE HAVE OWNED MANY CHEVYS INCLUDING CORVETTE AND 2 TAHOES BUT SINCE GM WON'T STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS LIKE THEY SHOULD, WE WILL BE BUYING ANOTHER BRAND,NISSAN OR HONDA NEXT TIME. *TR

CRACKED FRONT DASH ON RIGHT SIDE NEAR AIR BAG AFRAID THAT IT COULD DEPLOY PREMATURELY. *TR
Electrical system, Air bags, Structure, Mar 6, 2014
IN OUR 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE THE DASH IS CRACKED JUST ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WHICH COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY IN A CRASH. THE INTERIOR WIRING MUST BE FAULTY, THE PASSENGER WINDOW SOMETIMES WON'T ROLL DOWN FROM DRIVERS SIDE, BUT SOMETIMES IT WILL. ALSO OUR BATTERY MOUNTS DIFFERENT THAN WHAT IS CALLED FOR IN AUTOMOTIVE CENTERS (TOP MOUNT , NOT SIDE) MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO ORDER PROPER BATTERY FOR THIS VEHICLE. *TR

SIDE TRIM ON DOORS FADED BADLY AND HAD REPLACED BY DEALER UNDER WARRANTY ONLY TO FADE AGAIN WITHIN A COUPLE OF YEARS AND THEY ARE NOW COMING LOOSE FROM DOOR PANELS. *TR
Visibility/wiper, Mar 6, 2014
REAR DEFROST CABLE CAME OFF NUMEROUS TIMES HAD DEALER FIX AT LEAST TWICE AND THEN THEY REPLACED WHOLE BACK GLASS THEN CABLE STILL CONTINUED TO COME OFF . IT ONLY CAME OFF DURING MONTHS DEFROST WAS BEING USED, COLD WEATHER. CABLE CONNECTION SEEMED TO BE MELTING OFF FROM SOLDER. THIS TOO SEEMS TO BE COMMON AMONG 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOES. ALSO SINCE OWNING THIS TAHOE THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAVE NEVER SEEMED TO BE WIPING FAST ENOUGH IN A HARD RAIN,( NOT A DOWNPOUR, JUST STEADY HEAVY RAIN) IT IS VERY HARD TO SEE THROUGH WINDSHIELD. WITH VEHICLES I HAVE OWNED IN THE PAST, MOSTLY CHEVROLETS, I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. *TR

THE DISPLAY CLUSTER IN DASH HAS QUIT WORKING, DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER IS COMPLETELY OUT AND THE PRND IS BARELY VISIBLE. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON OCCURRENCE ON 2007 YEAR MODEL CHEVROLET TAHOES. *TR
Air bags, Other or unspecified, Mar 4, 2014
CHEVY TAHOE DASH CRACKED AND BEGAN BREAKING APART. CRACK ABOVE PASSENGER AIRBAG THAT WOULD LIKELY RESULT IN SHARP PROJECTILES IF AIRBAG DEPLOYED. CRACK ALSO OCCURRED ABOVE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. DASH WAS REPLACED IN JANUARY 2012 AND THEN CRACKED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AGAIN APPROX. 1.5 YEARS LATER IN 2013. THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT. A GOOGLE SEARCH OF CHEVY TAHOE/SUBURBAN CRACKED DASH WILL ILLUSTRATE THE EXTENT OF THIS DEFECT.
Air bags, Structure, Feb 23, 2014
I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY DURING A COLLISION OR AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT FROM SHARP PLASTIC EXPOSED DUE TO THE CRACKS IN THE DASH CUTTING THE AIRBAG OR SHARDS OF PLASTIC BECOMING PROJECTILES POTENTIALLY CAUSING INJURY TO OCCUPANTS. THE DASH IN THE TRUCK CRACKED OUT OF NO WHERE AND IS VERY POORLY MADE. THIS SHOULD BE REPLACED ASAP BY AUTOMAKER. *TR

THERE IS A CRACK ON MY DASH LEFT OF DRIVER HUMP AND ONE IN FRONT OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I HAVE FOUND THAT ALMOST ALL PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN IN THEIR CHEVROLET TAHOES AND SILVERADOS AND MINE JUST HAPPENED TO HAPPEN AFTER WARRANTY. I NEED THIS FIXED. *TR

DOOR HANDLES BROKE AWAY. CHROME DOOR HANDLES ON PASSENGER SIDE (SO FAR) HAVE BROKEN, BOTH WITH THE FORWARD ATTACHMENT (SCREW). CHEVROLET HAS A TSI ON THIS. *TR

THE DASHBOARD HAS 2 CRACKS ON IT. ONE ON THE DRIVER SIDES, TOWARDS THE DOOR, AND ONE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, IN THE MIDDLE, DIRECTLY ABOVE THE AIRBAG. *TR
Air bags, Structure, Jan 15, 2014
THE DASH CRACKED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AT THE CORNER OF WHERE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYS. APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS AGO A LARGER CRACK APPEARED ON THE DRIVER SIDE DASH ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. GM KNOWS THIS IS A RAMPANT ISSUE BUT FAILS TO SHOW INTEGRITY AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE THOUSANDS OF CRACKED DASHES IN TAHOE, YUKON, AVALANCHE, SIERRA, AND SILVERADO TRUCKS. *TR
Electrical system, Air bags, Vehicle speed control, Jan 15, 2014
AT 90,000 MILES, ALL OF MY REAR BEARINGS WERE BAD AND HAD TO HAVE THEM REPLACED, BASICALLY A WHOLE NEW REAR END. LUCKILY IT WAS COVERED UNDER THE 100,000 MILE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. I HAVE ONLY TOWED A TRAILER TWICE WITH MY TAHOE, SO OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT SOMEWHERE. SECOND ISSUE IS THAT THERE ARE 2 CRACKS ON THE DASHBOARD; ONE IN THE AREA OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG, AND THE OTHER ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE DRIVERS SIDE STEERING COLUMN. THESE BOTH OCCURRED ABOUT THE SAME TIME, AROUND 100,000 MILES. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE. GM NEEDS TO BE REPLACING THESE DASHBOARDS ON THEIR DIME AND NOT EXPECTING THE CUSTOMER TO FOOT THE BILL FOR THIS DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. IT IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. SHOULD THE AIRBAG SYSTEM HAVE TO DEPLOY, PIECES OF PLASTIC WOULD BECOME PROJECTILES THAT WOULD HARM ANYONE INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE THIRD ISSUE I HAVE, THAT BEGAN TODAY AT 109,000 MILES, ARE INVOLVING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE SPEEDOMETER DID NOT WORK, THE LIGHT THAT INDICATES WHICH GEAR YOU ARE IN DID NOT COME ON, AND THE SEAT BELT LIGHT AND AIR BAG LIGHT WERE ON EVEN THOUGH I WAS WEARING MY SEAT BELT. I'M NOT SURE WHAT IS CAUSING THIS, AND I'M HOPING IT IS JUST A BAD FUSE. I AM SO DICOURAGED WITH MY TAHOE LATELY. ALL OF THESE LITTLE THINGS GOING WRONG HAVE REALLY MADE ME LEARY OF BUYING ANOTHER GM PRODUCT, AND I'VE BEEN EXCITED ABOUT THE 2015 REDESIGN. NOT SO MUCH NOW. *TR
Air bags, Structure, Jan 11, 2014
UPON PURCHASING MY 2007 TAHOE USED I NOTICED 2 CRACKS ON DASHBOARD. THE ONE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS CRACKED AT CORNER OF AIRBAG WHICH IS CONCERNING DUE TO AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SHARDS OF PLASTIC COULD BE TURN ED INTO PROJECTILES. NOTICED THERE ARE MANY, MANY OF THE SAME VEHICLES WITH IDENTICAL CRACKS AND LOCATIONS OF THEM. THANKS *TR

Power train, Dec 14, 2013
THE FORWARD SPRAG UNIT BROKE WHICH ENDED UP NOT ONLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO COME OUT OF DRIVE WHILE WE WERE DRIVING BUT ALSO CAUSED SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION TO REQUITE AN ENTIRE REBUILD. FAULTY TRANSMISSIONS ARE A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE AND BECAUSE THE COMPANY REFUSES TO BACK THEIR PRODUCTS AND RECALL THE ISSUE, IT ENDS UP BECOMING A HUGE FINANCIAL BURDEN ON A FAMILY. THANKFULLY THERE WAS NO ONE FOLLOWING DIRECTLY BEHIND US WHEN THIS HAPPENED OR IT COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE. CHEVROLET NEEDS TO TAKE NOTE AND STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. CONSUMERS HAVE A RIGHT TO EXPECT A QUALITY VEHICLE THAT SHOULD LAST WELL BEYOND 100K MILES WITHOUT REQUIRING THIS KIND OF MAJOR REPAIR. *TR
