“When I start my car start my car it says service sevilla track and service airbag with in conjunction with this happening my wiper blades don't work and my cruise control does not work as well I've also noticed this happening on my mom's 2000 chevy Tahoe and on my previously owned 2001 gmc yukon I think it is across the board GM electrical problem”
NHTSA complaint #11052823, filed 2017-12, 160,000 miles“The light showing what gear you are in has gone out. It starts on then fades off. I looked up and found a recall - #05v055000 which is what is wrong with my car. When I called chevy - they said my VIN shows no open recalls. This makes no sense to me being that I am having that exact problem and my year make and model show that as a recall? How can they pick and chose which cars were affected by the recall??”
NHTSA complaint #10845552, filed 2016-03, 99,000 miles“I was in the hospital truck sat for 2-3 days no one drove it.

NHTSA complaint #11180216, filed 2019-02, 210 miles“For two years, the traction active warning goes on and slows down acceleration of the vehicle. It happens on a daily basis. When I am at a complete stop and then try to accelerate, the car will not accelerate normally. This is an extremely dangerous situation. I have taken the car to chevy dealerships twice for this and they say they can't replicate' the situation. Chevrolet knows of this problem and has not issues a recall.”
NHTSA complaint #10375518, filed 2011-01, 50,000 miles“Rear lift gate would not unlock via remote or manual key. From the interior, there is no manual override or emergency release to manually open the lift gate door or window. In the event of an accident, escaping from a vehicle that was damaged, overturned or on fire via the rear door would not be possible due to the lack of an emergency rear lift gate release. In my case, I had secured my pet in a pet crate in the rear of the vehicle on a 77 degree day. I could not get him out the rear access, unable to open same by any means. …”
