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.

2 OF THE 4 DOOR HANDLES HAVE BROKEN OFF, THEY ARE CHROME AND EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR. IT BECOMES A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE THEM AND CHILDREN'S FINGERS GO BETWEEN THE HANDLE AND BODY OF THE CAR. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT MANY OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH THIS SPECIFIC AUTOMOBILE. *TR
Air bags, Structure, Jan 2, 2013
THERE ARE 2 CRACKS IN THE DASH. ONE CRACK IS 2" LONG, NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THE OTHER CRACK IS 7" LONG, DRIVER SIDE, "HUMP" ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. I HAVE DONE EXTENSIVE RESEARCH ON THIS PROBLEM TO SEE IF ITS AN ANOMALY. IT ISN'T. I AM A MEMBER OF A FACEBOOK GROUP WHO HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR TAHOES AND SIMILAR MODELS. PLEASE REFER TO THIS LINK FOR A VISUAL HTTP://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=3IKSCKLF7G8&LIST=FLJGA62LGTEUQUMON7FZVC0Q&INDEX=40 PLEASE SEE FACEBOOK GROUP BELOW FOR MORE INFORMATION AND BACKGROUND AS WELL HTTPS://WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/GROUPS/251892298253/ IT WOULD APPEAR THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THE CRACKS ARE IN THE EXACT SAME LOCATION AMONGST HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS, OF CONSUMERS. I AM WORRIED THE CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE DASH IS A HAZARD IF THE AIR BAG IS DEPLOYED. THE COST TO REPLACE THE DASH IS BETWEEN $1,000-$1,500. *TR

WAS DRIVING AND WHEN EXITING FREEWAY. TRUCK STARTED SHAKING REALLY BAD AND TRACTION /STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. ENGIEN LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON AND OFF FOR ABOUT A YEAR. ALL THEY DO IS RESET SYSTEM AND COMES RIGHT BACK ON A FEW DAYS LATER. IT BEEN WELL TAKEN CARE OF. BOUGHT IT IN 06 AND PAID IT OFF IN 08. THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN GIVING ME MANY PROBLEM SINCE 09. I EVEN HAVE A CRAKE ON DASH BOARD ALL THE WAY TO AIR BAG SINCE 08. DEALER SAID NO RECALLS AND IS DUE TO SUN! BULL.... I HAVE BEEN READING ON-LINE AND MANY PEOPLE HAVE SIMALIER PROBLEMS. *TR

THIS IS THE SECOND INCIDENT. WAS DRIVING AT 45 MPH AND MADE A TURN. THE TAHOE LOSS POWER AND STALLED. THE COMPUTER READ REDUCED ENGINE POWER AND STABILITY TRAK OFF. THIS IS BOTHERSOME BEING THAT THIS CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE AT ANYTIME. AFRAID OF POSSIBLE ACCIDENT OR WORSE. *TR
Air bags, Seat belts, Dec 28, 2012
I WAS TRAVELING ON A STATE HIGHWAY TO AN EVENT. THIS WAS THE SECOND DAY OF THE EVENT, SO I HAD TRAVELED THE SAME ROAD THE DAY PRIOR. I SLOWED TO CROSS RAILROAD TRACKS. WHILE CROSSING THE TRACKS, THE FRONT AND MIDDLE SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ON BOTH THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDES. THE FORCE OF THE DEPLOYMENT ALSO CRACKED AREAS AROUND THE INTERIOR WALLS AND BLEW OUT THE REAR OVERHEAD LIGHT. I AM NOT SURE EXACTLY WHAT, BUT SOMETHING STRUCK ME ON THE TOP OF MY HEAD AT THE TIME OF THE DEPLOYMENT. FORTUNATELY, I HAD SLOWED TO CROSS THE TRACKS OR THERE COULD HAVE BEEN A DIFFERENT OUTCOME. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE STABILITY CONTROL WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED, THE STEERING SEIZED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED SIMULTANEOUSLY. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED SEVERAL TIMES. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST ONTO THE SHOULDER AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 105,753.

NOTICED A CRACK ON THE DASH BOARD RIGHT ABOVE THE GAUGE CLUSTER. HAVE A FAMILY MEMBER WITH THE SAME VEHICLE AND SAW THAT THEIR VEHICLES DASH WAS FULL OF CRACKS AND DECIDED TO RESEARCH THE ISSUE. I FOUND BLOGS AND VIDEOS THROUGH OUT THE INTERNET OF PEOPLE ALL AROUND WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT I HAVE ALSO FOUND THAT THE NEXT CRACK IN THE DASH I WILL SEE WILL BE ON THE CORNER OF THE DASH AT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. I'M AFRAID THIS COULD AFFECT THE PROPER DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAG. *TR
Structure, Dec 13, 2012
DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE CORNER ABOVE THE AIRBAG. DASH HAS NOT BEEN SUBJECTED TO STRESS / PRESSURE. IT APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AS THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MANY INDIVIDUALS ONLINE. I FEAR THAT THIS CRACK WILL EXPAND AND CAN POTENTIALLY AFFECT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG ITSELF. AS THIS VEHICLE IS A '07 MODEL, IT SHOULD NOT CRACK AFTER LESS THAN 5 YEARS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE NOTICED THE DASHBOARD CRACKING NEAR THE AIR BAG. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND THEY ADVISED HER THAT SHE NEEDED A NEW DASHBOARD. THE MANUFACTURER WAS LATER CONTACTED AND STATED THEY WERE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THAT COMPONENT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 57,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 59,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.
Electrical system, Dec 10, 2012, crash
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO STALL. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHILE PARKED, THE VEHICLE ROLLED AWAY AND CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE BATTERY CABLES FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT REQUISITIONED A THIRD PARTY TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN I.D. NUMBER 10V240000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. JUST CONCERNS LIKE SO MANY OTHER GM CUSTOMERS. THERE IS A CRACK THAT IS AT THE AIRBAG, ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, THAT KEEPS GETTING BIGGER. CONCERNED THAT AIRBAG MIGHT DEPLOY, OR NOT WORK AT ALL. HAVE CONTACTED GM CORPORATE SEVERAL TIMES TELLING THEM ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE THAT OTHER CUSTOMERS ARE HAVING IN THIS SAME AREA. WHEN CONTACTING GM THEY TELL ME THAT THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF THIS ISSUE, BUT THERE ARE SO MANY CUSTOMERS THAT HAVE COMPLAIN ONLINE. I WAS TOLD TO TAKE MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR FURTHER INSPECTION AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS COULD HAVE HAPPEN BY USING ARMORALL, IN THAT CASE THE WHOLE CONSOLE WOULD BE CRACKED AND NOT IN CERTAIN PLACES WHERE ALL OTHER CUSTOMERS ARE SEEING THE SAME EXACT CRACKS. ACTUALLY THE ENTIRE CONSOLE IS AFFECTED WITH SEVERAL CRACKS. IF GM WAS NOT AWARE, HOW COME SOME OF THEIR CUSTOMERS CONSOLES HAVE BEEN CHANGED OUT BY THE DEALERSHIP? MORE THAN ONCE. THEY TELL ME BECAUSE OF THE MODEL AND THE MILEAGE OF MY VEHICLE IT WOULD NOT QUALIFY. THIS IS A MATERIAL ISSUE PLUS A SAFETY ISSUE IF IT AFFECTS THE STABILITY OF AN AIRBAG. THERE ARE EVEN VIDEOS ON U TUBE THAT SHOWS A VISUAL PICTURE. *TR
Engine, Nov 28, 2012
THE OIL LEVEL LOW LIGHT CAME ON IN THE CAR. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC. HE ALSO HAS A 2007 TAHOE. HE TOLD ME TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE LOCAL CHEVY DEALER. HE HAS SEEN THIS MANY TIMES IN THE 2007 TAHOE, APPARENTLY THEY BURN OIL AND IT IS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE DESIGN OF THE PISTON AND PISTON RING. THE DEALER PAID FOR HIS TAHOE TO BE FIXED. I WAS TOLD THAT GM NOW USES A MINIMUM PARTICIPATION FINANCIAL CALCULATOR AND GM WOULD ONLY PAY FOR 45% OF THE COST TO REPAIR, LEAVING ME WITH A $1,705.10 REPAIR BILL. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE REPAIR COST DOWN TO $850. HOWEVER, THIS CAR IS DEFECTIVE. I HAVE NOT EVEN FINISHED PAYING FOR THE CAR AND THE DEALER IS TELLING ME I NEED A NEW ENGINE DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW. I THINK GM NEEDS TO DO THE RIGHT THING HERE AND REPAIR THEIR FLAWED 2007 TAHOES. GM CLEARLY KNOWS OF THE FLAW AS THEY REDESIGNED THE 2008 PISTON AND PISTON RING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE SMELLED A FOUL ODOR AND NOTICED SMOKE EMITTING FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT DOOR WHILE DRIVING AN UNKNOWN SPEED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND WAS LATER TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 102,000.

I NOTICE A CRACK ON MY DASH BOARD IN THE SEAM OF THE AIR BAG FRONT LEFT SIDE- AND THEN INSPECTED THE DASH BOARD TO FIND ANOTHER CRACK OVER THE STEERING HUMP OF THE DASH BOARD HEADING DOWN TOWARD THE VENT OF THE DASH BOARD. AS I RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE SOME UNDER WARRANTY AND OTHERS NOT. THE ISSUE IS THE DASH BOARD IS CHEAPLY MADE AND MAY CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE IF IN AN ACCIDENT AND SINCE IT IS LOCATED NEAR THE AIR BAG IT COULD CAUSE INJURY. *TR

I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE AS THE FRONT DASHBOARD HAS SPLIT OPEN AND CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES. THEY APPEAR TO BE STRESS FRACTURES, OR WEAKNESSES IN THE WAY THE DASHBOARD IS MANUFACTURED. I HAVE LOOKED AT THE INTERNET, AND THERE ARE MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE, WHERE THEIR DASHBOARDS DEVELOP STRESS FRACTURES AND SPLIT OPEN. THE DASHBOARD HAS TWO MAIN PROBLEM AREAS; ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AROUND THE AIR BAG OPENING, AND THEN AGAIN OVER THE "HUMP" THAT COMES UP AND OVER THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THIS CRACK IN PARTICULAR IS VERY BAD, WITH THESE CRACKS SPLITTING OFF IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. THE DASHBOARD IS NOW VERY WEAK AND HAS NO STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY. I WOULD NOT FEEL SAFE IF THIS VEHICLE WAS IN A CRASH, AS THE DASHBOARD WOULD PROVIDE NO SUPPORT TO PROTECT OCCUPANTS, AND THE PLASTIC PARTS OF THE DASHBOARD WOULD GO FLYING THROUGHOUT THE CABIN. CHEVROLET NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY OF THIS AND REPLACE THE DASHBOARD. *TR

MY DASH IS CRACKING IN TWO PLACES ABOVE MY AIRBAGS. THE CRACKS ARE CAUSING MY DASH TO BULGE. IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT NUMEROUS 2007 TAHOE'S AND YUKON'S ALL HAVE DASH CRACKS IN THE SAME AREAS. I HAVE CONTACTED GM ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY HELP.

TWO CRACKS LOCATED ON THE DASH. ONE IS LOCATED ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF THE DRIVER SIDE "HUMP" AND THE OTHER IS LOCATED ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND CONNECTS FROM THE AIRBAG TO THE VENT.

THE DASH HAS CRACKED BEHIND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I AM AFRAID IF THE BAG DEPLOYS IT WILL THROW THE PIECE AS A PROJECTILE AND HIT THE PASSENGER. MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET, GM IS SELECTIVELY ASSISTING IN REPAIR. I WAS INFORMED THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME BECAUSE I HAVE AN AFTERMARKET RADIO AND ALARM, NEITHER OF WHICH IS ANYWHERE NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE. *TR

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT THE DASHBOARD CRACKED. I BOOUGHT THE TAHOE IN 04/13/2010 AND HAD 25,967 MILES IN JUNE 7, 2011 AFTER PAYING $350.00 FOR LABOR THE DEALER REPLACED THE DASHBOARD AND NOW A YEAR AND FOUR MONTHS IT IS CRACKED AGAIN AND I SPOKE WITH A SERVICES PERSON AT THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME IT IS BEEN A YEAR AND THERE IS NOT COVERAGE FOR. I'M VERY UPSET I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE THAT IT ONLY LASTED A YEAR SO IF I SPENT MY MONEY FIXING THIS AGAIN HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TILL IT BRAKES AGAIN. *TR
