Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My brakes become very very hard to push when it senses anything near my car. I noticed this was a recall issues so I took it to the dealership (gerry lane chevy in baton rouge, louisiana) and they tried fixing it but were unsuccessful. The second attempted 'worked' or at least they said it did. I'm still having issues with it and have since the moment I left the dealership. They refuse to look at it without me paying this time.”
NHTSA complaint #11383942, filed 2020-12, 97,000 miles“My Tahoe had been making bad noises for several days, no check engine light on. Was driving with my children and went to pull out onto US-127 and the car wouldn't go in drive. Then to get out of the road I couldn't even go in reverse putting me and my three children in danger. My Tahoe has 82,000 miles and is only 4 years old. The transmission has been confirmed by multiple Shops that is always the problem with these Tahoe's.”
