Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The fog running light on the front left side has been out since 6 months after the purchase of our vehicle. Ironically I have noticed that the same light is out on a great number of the tahoe's & Yukon's that I see on the road. I believe that this is a potential safety flaw on this model yet it has not been recalled for replacement. We have attempted to replace the bulb but the light keeps going out.”

NHTSA complaint #10138453, filed 2005-10

“While drving the vehicle at 60mph at night time consume states has problem with interior light as well with head lights, causing to pull out of the road. Dealer has been notified. Please provide further information thanks. Ts”
