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.

DASHBOARD CRACKING IN SEVERAL DIFFERENT PLACES, EVEN BESIDE PASSENGER AIRBAG.
Structure, Dec 30, 2015
MY DASHBOARD RECENTLY CRACKED ON ITS OWN IN SEVERAL LOCATIONS INCLUDING AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND IN FRONT OF THE DRIVERS CONSOLE. IT SEEMS AS IF THIS IS SOME SORT OF DEFECT IN THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS. IT SPLIT ALL THE WAY THROUGH. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE PIECES NEXT TO THE AIRBAG MAY BECOME PROJECTILES IF THE AIRBAGS WERE TO EVER BE DEPLOYED. GM AND CHEVROLET DEALERSHIPS REFUSE TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE AFTER NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. *JS

I PURCHASED THIS CAR WITH 69K ON THE DASH BY THE TIME I GOT TO 80K I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MISFIRES UPON FURTHER INSPECTION I FOUND OUT MY ENGINE LIFTERS WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE VEHICLE WENT INTO LIMP MODE. I CALLED GM THEY OFFERED NO REPAIR ASSISTANCE AND AKNOWLEDGED THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM. HOWEVER THEY HAVENT RELEASED A RECALL TO HELP OR REIMBURSE THE MANY PEOPLE THAT HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM.

I BOUGHT MY 2008 CHEVROLET TAHOE BRAND NEW. PEOPLE LAUGH AT ME BECAUSE I'VE ALWAYS DEALT WITH THE DEALERSHIP ON EVERYTHING INCLUDING ALL OIL CHANGES. NOW I'M BEING TOLD THAT I HAVE LIFTER AND CAM PROBLEMS. I COMPLAINED ABOUT THE ENGINE LIGHT BEING ON 5 MONTHS PRIOR TO BE TOLD THIS. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON BECAUSE OF THE TPS STICKING. I'M A SINGLE MOTHER OF 2. I PURCHASED A NEW VEHICLE NOT TO HAVE THESE KIND OF PROBLEMS ESPECIALLY SINCE I'VE ALWAYS TAKEN MY TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I CANT AFFORD A NEW ENGINE, MY TRUCK IS PARKED AND I HAVE TO GET RIDES TO WORK FROM CO-WORKERS. I CANT SLEEP NOR WORK.
Structure, Oct 1, 2015
THE DOOR HANDLES ON MY TAHOE HAVE BROKEN OFF AT THE POST IN THE DOOR. THIS IS A COMMON OCCURENCE FOR THIS MODEL ACCORDING TO THE DATA ON THE INTERNET. THE PLASTIC HANDLE EASILY BREAKS OFF FROM THE METAL POST OVER TIME. THIS IS NOT FROM EXCESSIVE USE OR FORCE THIS IS JUST A DESIGN FLAW WITH INFERIOR MATERIALS. BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE HANDLES HAVE BROKEN OFF. THE SITUATION JUST CONTUINUED TO GET WORSE OVER THE LAST YEAR. THIS VEHICLE IS GARAGED 90% OF THE TIME ONLY BEING DRIVEN AS A PLEASURE VEHICLE. THE DOORS BROKE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED.

I HAVE 3 CRACKS IN MY DASHBOARD THAT HAVE APPEARED OVER A COURSE OF APPROXIMATELY 2 YEARS. I HAVE 2 THAT ARE ABOVE MY ODOMETER AND ONE THAT IS COMING FROM THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AREA OF THE DASH. DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT IS MAKING CRACKLING NOISES AS IF IT IS SLOWLY SPREADING.

THERE ARE VERY LARGE CRACKS ON MY DASH BOARD, THE WORST ONE BEING AROUND THE AIRBAG PLASTIC COVER ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE DASH! YOU CAN SEE UNDER THE COVER SHOWING ALL OF THE COMPONENTS UNDER THE DASH! THE CRACK THAT IS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IS ABOVE THE STEERING COLUMN RUNNING FROM THE DEFROSTER TO THE TOP BY THE SPEEDOMETER DISPLAYS, ETC! I FEEL AS IF THESE CRACKS, SPECIFICALLY THE ONE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD! WITHOUT CRASHING, THERE IS NO WAY OF TELLING IF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WILL DEFLATE PROPERLY DUE TO THIS! I FEEL THAT TO FIND THIS OUT, IT SHOULD BE AT NO ONES EXPENSE! I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT & A CLAIM WITH GM A FEW MONTHS AGO ONLY TO BE TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT GM CONTACTED ON MY BEHALF THAT THE RESPONSIBILITY IS MINE IF I WANTED THIS PROBLEM TO BE FIXED! THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT IT WOULD COST $850 TO $1000 TO HAVE THE DASH REPLACED! THE DEALERSHIP ALSO SAID THAT THEY ARE VERY AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM IN THE TAHOES BECAUSE THEY HAVE REPLACED SOME DASHES! GM IS NOT TAKING ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR FAULTY EQUIPMENT & REFUSE TO ISSUE A RECALL! THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF OTHER CUSTOMERS WHO I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT ARE ALSO FACING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR TRUCKS & SUVS! PLEASE DO THE RIGHT THING & ISSUE A RECALL ON THESE FAULTY & CHEAP MADE DASH BOARDS! THANK YOU! *TR

THE DASH OF MY TAHOE HAS NUMEROUS CRACKS AROUND THE AIRBAG, VENTS, AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. ALSO THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR HAS BEEN REPLACED NUMEROUS TIMES AND STILL CAUSES THE INDICATOR TO LIGHT UP BECUASE THE SENSOR FAILED.

SO I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF MY TRUCK ITS GARAGE KEPT ALWAYS HAVE SUN VISOR ON WHEN IN THE SUN BUT THAT DIDN'T MATTER. I FIRST NOTICED A SMALL CRACK ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL MAYBE A INCH AND WITH A MONTH IT'S CRACKED ALL THE WAY UP ALMOST AROUND TO THE FRONT. THIS IS NOT HE FAULT OF THE CONSUMER. THERE ARE THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS ON FACEBOOK, ON THE NEWS AND ALL SOCIAL MEDIA. GM NEEDS TO GET THIS RECALLED IMMEDIATELY. *TR
Other or unspecified, Sep 8, 2015
A CRACK STARTED TO FORM ON THE DASHBOARD ABOVE THE UPPER LEFT CORNER OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THE CRACK HAS SPREAD AND HAS CAUSED PRESSURE AND STRAIN ON OTHER PARTS OF THE DASHBOARD LEADING TO MAJOR CRACKS IN THE PLASTIC ALL THE WAY FROM THE PASSENGER AIRBAG TO THE DRIVERS SIDE DASH 'HUMP' ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM/DEFECT WITH THE CHEVY TAHOE MODEL FROM 2007-2011. THE CRACKS ARE A SAFETY CONCERN SINCE THEY ARE STARTING FROM AND ARE SURROUNDING THE AIRBAGS. ANY DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAGS ARE AT RISK OF MALFUNCTION AS WELL AS POSSIBLY CAUSING DAMAGE TO PASSENGERS DUE TO THE CRACKED PIECES POTENTIAL OF BREAKING OFF AND BEING HURLED AT PASSENGERS UPON IMPACT/DEPLOYMENT. GM SHOULD RECALL THESE MODELS AND FIX THE SAFETY ISSUE.

THE DASHES ON A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF 1500-3500 SERIES TAHOE, SUBURBAN, YUKON, SIERRA AND SILVERADO MODEL VEHICLES FROM GM ARE CRACKING ALL OVER THE DASH. THE CRACKS ARE LOCATED SPECIFICALLY AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE FOR VINYL SHRAPNEL BEING LAUNCHED AT PASSENGERS IN THE CABIN UPON AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE CRISIS FACED BY TOYOTA. GM IS NEGLECTING THE SAFETY OF ITS CUSTOMERS BY ALLOWING THIS TO OCCUR. THE NUMBER OF VEHICLES EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME CRACKS, DOWN TO THE SIZE AND EXACT LOCATION, CONSTITUTES A DESIGN FLAW IN THE LOCATION OF THE MOUNTING POINTS WHICH IS CAUSING UNEVEN DISTRIBUTION OF WEIGHT AS WELL AS POINT STRESSES. IF THIS PIECE WAS PROPERLY ENGINEERED IT WOULD DISTRIBUTE STRESS AND FLEX PROPERLY TO AVOID THE PLASTIC MODE OF FAILURE TO WHICH THEY ARE CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING. UPDATED 12/12/2017*CN

ON THE THIRD TIME THEY SAID IT WAS THE MEGA FUSE AND REPLACED IT. EVERYTHING SEEMED FIXED. I PARKED THE CAR IN THE GARAGE AND PULLED IT OUT APPROXIMATELY 7 MONTHS LATER TO GET TO MY SHELVES AND WHEN I WENT TO PULL IT BACK IN THE SAME SITUATION HAPPENED AGAIN. I HAVE NOT TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER YET DUE TO THE EXTREME COSTS THAT I HAVE CONTINUED TO PAY THE PREVIOUS TIME FOR IT NOT TO BE FIXED.. IT EFFECTS THE COMPLETE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO THE VEHICLE.

ALL SIX SIDE AIRBAGS ON OUR 2008 CHEVROLET TAHOE DEPLOYED WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH OUR TWO CHILDREN IN THEIR REAR CAR SEATS. THERE WAS NO IMPACT, BUMP, POT-HOLE OR ANY OTHER REASON APPARENT TO US WHY THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. IT WAS COMPLETELY RANDOM. NO ONE WAS INJURED AND MY WIFE MAINTAINED CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE TO A SAFE STOP, BUT SHE WAS STUNNED AND DISORIENTED. THE DAMAGE TO OUR VEHICLE IS EXTENSIVE. IN ADDITION TO REPLACING SIX AIRBAGS, LIGHT FIXTURES, PLASTIC MOLDING, THE ROOF PANEL AND FABRIC/LINER ARE ALL DAMAGED. AT THIS POINT, THE DEALER IS NOT HELPING AT ALL. WE HAVE CONTACTED GM BUT THEY HAVE NOT RESPONDED AFTER 2 DAYS. WE BELIEVE THIS IS NOT ONLY A PRODUCT LIABILITY ISSUE THAT GM SHOULD REPAIR, BUT ALSO A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. WE ARE ALL VERY FORTUNATE THAT THIS DID NOT RESULT IN A SINGLE OR MULTI-VEHICLE ACCIDENT, INJURIES RELATED TO THE ACCIDENT, OR INJURIES RELATED TO THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. WE NEED HELP TO ENSURE GM ADDRESSES THIS ISSUE PROACTIVELY, BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED.
