WHAT FAILED: Main Radio. SAFETY CONCERNS: GM sent an over the air update to car around July 5, 2024 and the update broke the whole radio system to my car. I now have no access to OnStar, bluetooth for phone safety, maps, blinkers on side mirrors, radio etc. Dealer mentioned it is a very common problem with this particular GM product and the over the air update to cars. When I asked to turn this feature off so it doesn't happen again it is not an option. The Chevrolet Dealer and a sound system specialist has inspected vehicle. Sound System specialist said this part may only be replaced by the dealer as it is the high end radio system. There was no warning of the update happening. The car was in great condition until this update was pushed through in the middle of the day. Now I am being quoted $2000 to fix it with no guarantee that it wont happen again.

Gps/onstar module not working, I read a lot of people are complaining same thing. I had it for a year, warranty done but I never used it. Sad you spend $70k on a truck and onstar goes bad and you never used it and they want more money to replace it. Now engine light is on.

Other vehicles of my year and make were recalled. My car was manufactured 8/14/21. I was driving on 6/12/24 and my Car died. I had power. I had fuel but fuel was not getting to the engine. It turns out it was the fuel pump control module that many others were recalled. This could have been a very unsafe situation for me as it died in a traffic lane during morning rush hour. It would not start back up for me. My dealer diagnosed it very quickly and is repairing it in 2 days time. Had I been on the freeway, someone would have rearended me. My car has 22,000 miles on it.
Electrical system, Engine, Jun 10, 2024
I am experiencing loss of power just like the recall shows for campaign 22V036000 powertrain. Engine stall in the middle of the street just like it shows for the fuel system 21V73 9000. I have stalled in the middle of the street including today four times and a month. The dealership can’t seem to find what’s wrong. Nor other places. I don’t think they are looking hard enough at the dealership. I almost got killed by another car going at least 65 mph while I was stuck in the middle of the street at a stoplight. These are all different days. While working and people in my car.
Other or unspecified, Jun 5, 2024
I was driving to work today and I heard what sounded like an explosion, so I stopped and pulled to the side of the road and checked everything and I seen that the sunroof glass was broken, I have only ever used the sunroof twice and that was to see if it was working. My safety and others on the road were at risk because if I would have had the sunroof sliding shade open the glass would have fell on my head or in my face. Also anyone driving behind me I'm sure the glass flew on their vehicle and could caused an accident. I got to work and called the local Chevrolet dealership in town and they said there were no recalls for this problem, but yet I looked it up under GMC forums and there has been other people saying it happened to them, especially the same year and make and model. My vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police or insurance yet, I reached out to the Chevrolet dealership and they said there was nothing they could do to help because there were no recalls on my vehicle, so I asked the girl in the service department who was higher then her and could help me because I did nothing wrong and did not feel that I should have to pay to fix this problem. She then gave me customer care contact information and I am waiting for a response. There were no warnings or symptoms or any messages on the dash, my sunroof glass just exploded without any warnings.
Fuel/propulsion system, May 28, 2024
When turning left in cross traffic, the truck stalled. It would crank and try to run, but not start as it wasn't getting any gas. The gas tank was full at the time. The failure was very similar to when I was stranded with the fuel issue in 2021 a couple of months before the recall for the fuel pump failure was issued (NTSA # 21V739000). Fortunately, it did start momentarily so that I could get out of oncoming traffic so that I wasn't t-boned. I was able to get it home, but it failed multiple times in the 8 mile trip back to the house. We will not drive this vehicle as it is unsafe to drive and now we are left to tow the vehicle to the closest dealership which is 50+ miles away. It seems this part only works a few years and then fails.
Fuel/propulsion system, May 25, 2024
I was parked with engine on idling and the engine shut off. Tried to restart and it started shaking very rough idle, I turned off and tried to restart it would not start, I tried again and it started shaking again and shut off but the displays stayed on in the car. I called the Chevy dealer and had it towed to them. They ran diagnostics and confirmed it was an internal short inside fuel pump driver control module. They replaced and tested functional now. This is the second time they have replaced this part. The first time was last year driving when the engine decelerated and shut off. This is a safety issue and could be hazardous. My concern is this will happen again and I could be put in a very dangerous situation. I saw a bulletin issued for my vehicle with the same type of issue but my vehicle was not recalled to address Product Safety Recall N212332040 Stall While Driving Copyright 2021 General Motors. All Rights Reserved. Page 1 of 4 Release Date: October 2021 I am not sure if this is the same part or another issue.
Fuel/propulsion system, May 17, 2024
Service engine light came on, took it to Chevrolet dealership (2 months outside warranty). They found p2459 for regeneration frequency, performed necessary dpf regeneration procedure and was successful in completing and regeneration event, applied smoke to exhaust system for testing purposes and found large exhaust leak at rear tail pipe connection necessary to install new graphite seal and clamp. Also, found coolant leak at rear of engine on passenger side, upon further inspection found egr cooler coolant hose's actively leaking. necessary to replace hose's at this time. They do not want to release the vehicle back to us for “safety” reasons, while a part has been back ordered for 6 weeks. Doing some research, it appears there has been a trend of issues with the exhaust tail pipe, which is excluded also from extended warranty. I’m surprised, given the frequency of this on a newer vehicle that it has not yet been recalled. The coolant hose is a different issue, but likewise surprised it is not recalled.
Air bags, May 12, 2024
I have a 2021 Chevy Tahoe that has been to the dealer 3 times now for an airbag light (DTC B14DC). The dealer has yet to resolve this issue. I am being told it has to do with the harness in my drivers seat. The dealer performed a TSB for this issue which still hasn't fixed the problem. My wife and I travel back and forth from Michigan to Arizona and I am concerned that the system wont perform correctly if I am in an accident.
Power train, Electrical system, Vehicle speed control, Apr 23, 2024, fire
2 ISSUES - 1) vehicle repaired 5 times for "transmission" problem by replacing wiring harnesses. On 5th attempt, the GM factory part or the technician caused the Tahoe to catch fire. Worst part is that it happened 1 hour after test driving and parking the car at their dealership, thankfully, I would normally have driven it home and it would have destroyed my home too. GM investigated and was unable to determine cause. 2) each time the "transmission" error occurred the GM car went into what they call the "limp" mode. The car immediately loses speed control and drifts to about 35 mph until you have control of the accelerator. I was on an interstate going +70 mph to pass a semi and immediately after passing the car went into Limp Mode, the semi nearly rear ended me and then passed me blowing his horn and cursing me. GM could certainly correct this latter issue by creating a warning on the screen that gives the driver ample time to pull over and address the problem as they do when DEF fluid (this was a diesel) is low and will give warning to add DEF or reduce speed after so many additional miles are driven. The former issue needs to be addressed immediately too, I've noted 4 other drivers on social media that had similar fires. Both of these issues could have resulted in serious injury to me or my family.

As a traffic crash reconstructionist, the issue is a MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. My wife was exiting a residential driveway when the vehicle started to stutter and immediately shut down with no power or any capability to get the vehicle off the road. The shutdown caused the blockage of a residential street on a Friday afternoon, until the correct tow truck arrived. This was due to the fact the vehicle could not be moved due to not being able to start the engine nor the ability to place the vehicle into neutral, without starting the engine or crawling un der it with tools. It was determined the fuel module went bad. There was no warning of the failure of the component. Luckily the shut down of all components of the vehicle did not occur on a high speed or highly traveled road since I did not have any control of the vehicle after the fuel module failed. This is not the first report of the issue to NHTSA. Hopefully something will happen to find a fix to put the vehicle in neutral without tools, for the safety of the motoring public.
