“2014 Chevrolet Tahoe police pursuit vehicle (ppv) issued new by highway patrol in 2q14. Vehicle presented with near complete stalling at idle in park, as well as idle in drive with brake applied - where engine intermittently has trouble stabilizing rpms between 0.7 and 0.6, and the gauge needle moves back and forth, sometimes erratically. …”
NHTSA complaint #10662114, filed 2014-12, 300 miles“Sometimes the vehicle will not start. When running the door locks open and close rapidly, the service trailer brake warning comes on, the low battery warning comes on then goes off, the airbag light flashes on and off. While driving the vehicle serges, and stalls completely for a brief moment. The battery is new, and the dealer says the battery and alternator check out ok. The last oil change about two months ago, the dealer said they could not duplicate the problem.”
NHTSA complaint #11194566, filed 2019-04, 67,500 miles“The electrical system fails, causing the entire car to stop operating. Gm says that they will not fix, even though they put out a GM recall bulletin 14515b. Gm says my VIN# is not included. It is a 2014 with the same issue as in bulletin? Interior lights blink, service trailer brake control light comes on, then entire vehicle loses all electrical. Car stops and will not restart. First started in 04/16, every few months, and most recently 01/04/17 and again 01/14/17.”
NHTSA complaint #10945477, filed 2017-01, 52,000 miles“I tried to get the fan recall done. I went to Countryside Chevrolet I'm Franklin NC. They refused to do the recall. I just moved out of my house and have no address. I'm here, in Franklin NC. Trying to get the recall completed, and I need to drive to Wyoming, and I do not feel safe doing so until recall is complete. My life is in danger with the possibility of fire. And I am stuck in Franklin NC until it is completed.”
