while driving the top part of my dashboard cracked and busted open. A piece of plastic came flying right at me and almost hit me in the face and could of caused me to crash while on the highway. Very poorly made dashboard by Chevy they should be ashamed of themselves.
SERVICE BRAKES May 3, 2022
Have owned the vehicle since new. For a long time I had been "topping off" the brake fluid in the master cylinder. Finally got a message on the dash telling me to "service brakes soon" that would come and go. Eventually made it to our local Chevrolet dealer while the message was displayed for diagnostic purposes. Was told code "C0299" was found regarding brake booster pressure sensor performance. Vehicle was repaired by replacing the master cylinder and hydraulic brake booster. A large amount of brake fluid was found inside the booster upon disassembly. Obviously had been leaking brake fluid from the master cylinder into the brake booster for a long time. Saw that Ford had a recent recall for a similar problem and I thought it was worth reporting. I retained both the master cylinder and brake booster for inspection if needed. Fortunately no incidents occurred due to this part failure before replacement.

UNKNOWN: The heater-AC blower wire harness female clip and has melted three times with replacement parts. While it was on I was feeling for it and I can feel a strong pulsing so it has a lot of power. The wire harness gauge is week and small. Cheap parts the manufacturer made on a budget. I have heard many complaints and and worries from others that feel it can catch on fire and would be a dangerous distraction driving the freeway while it starts to melt it is a strong obnoxious fume and smells like it an catch fire. Also if you loose your heater on the freeway in the cold your windows fog up.

My dashboard is severely cracked, I called GM to order a new dashboard and they don't have the parts. First this shouldn't happen, GM should own up to the issue and create a part that doesn't have the issue. Second they don't even have the existing part to fix the issue. I called a local dealership (Simi Valley Chevrolet) who wouldn't even give me the part numbers as they said it was against their policy to not give out part numbers. I don't know how a consumer is supposed to fix their vehicle with manufacturer who doesn't make a part any longer and a dealer who doesn't give the information to find another one.

The first problem was the cluster , it completely went off . I took it to a mechanic he said he fixed it . It works for one day then completely shut off again, I can not see what gear I am in , any alert that I need to see for warning and saftey completely off in the cluster . . Shortly after the first issue I noticed 2 cracks on my dashboard ,on both driver and passenger side of the vehicle . I had not put a lot of thought into that as it didn’t seem like a safety concern up until I’ve read several post of others with same issue . ( I’m guessing a fire should be expected anytime because of others stories I have read off here the cracks have lead to fires ) Another issue is I have to add quart oil to my Tahoe atleast every 2 -3 weeks . I’ve taken it to have that fixed and each time was told there is no leak . I get the works done each oil change and still have to add oil 2 weeks after a new air filter oil etc .. a major issue that could have been a major wreck was While driving down a highway around 11 pm .. my car started flickering lights inside and outside of my tahoe and it started making a loud click sound saying system is shutting down ,my steering wheel locked up and all power to vehicle completely shut down .period . No power to anything at all what so ever . The battery was fairly new . Well We had it towed back to town for a mechanic to look at the next day … he replaced the alternator and checked everything . Said he couldn’t see anythjng and told me I should sale it right away He warned me of a lot of issues he keeps seeing with Tahoe . Well now my driver door will not open at all I have to crawl through the passenger side door to get in and out of my car . With all these serious issues still going on I m very scared to be in my car , not getting my alerts and being trapped inside .

( I’m guessing a fire should be expected anytime because of others stories I have read off here the cracks have lead to fires ) Another issue is I have to add quart oil to my Tahoe atleast every 2 -3 weeks . I’ve taken it to have that fixed and each time was told there is no leak . I get the works done each oil change and still have to add oil 2 weeks after a new air filter oil etc .. a major issue that could have been a major wreck was While driving down a highway around 11 pm .. my car started flickering lights inside and outside of my tahoe and it started making a loud click sound saying system is shutting down ,my steering wheel locked up and all power to vehicle completely shut down .period . No power to anything at all what so ever . The battery was fairly new . Well We had it towed back to town for a mechanic to look at the next day … he replaced the alternator and checked everything . Said he couldn’t see anythjng and told me I should sale it right away He warned me of a lot of issues he keeps seeing with Tahoe . Well now my driver door will not open at all I have to crawl through the passenger side door to get in and out of my car . With all these serious issues still going on I m very scared to be in my car , not getting my alerts and being trapped inside . Please someone point me in the right direction I have 5 kids this is not safe !

I FINALLY JUST RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL LETTER FROM GM THAT THE PARTS ARE NOW AVAILABLE TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR IN MY VEHICLE. DURING THE 14 YEARS THAT GM HAS TAKEN TO RESPOND TO THE SAFETY PROBLEM MY DASHBOARD WHICH IS MADE FROM PLASTIC HAS SEVERAL CRACKS IN IT. I SPOKE WITH THE LOCAL DEALER AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY WILL REPLACE THE AIRBAG INFLATOR AT NO CHARGE BUT WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DASHBOARD WHICH WILL BREAK UP AND COME OUT IN PIECES ONCE REMOVED DUE TO DETERIORATION AND CRACKS. THE COST FOR THE DASHBOARD PARTS IS EXPECTED TO EXCEED $1,100.00. I THEN CONTACTED THE CHEVROLET CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER AT 800-630-2438 AND SPOKE TO JECC WHICH INFORMED ME THAT NO, GM WILL NOT REPLACE ANY OTHER PARTS OTHER THAN THE AIRBAG INFLATOR. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW GM COULD BE SO COMPLACENT IN DELAYING FOR 14 YEARS THE INSTALLATION OF THIS CRITICAL SAFETY PART WHICH HAS PUT MY PASSENGERS AT RISK OF BEING IMPALED BE METAL SHRAPNEL IF IN AN ACCIDENT. I ALSO DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY AFTER DELAYING THE INSTALLATION OF THIS PART FOR SO LONG THAT THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO REPLACE ALL THE NECESSARY PARTS TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT. I WILL BE DELAYING THE RECALL PROCEDURE DUE TO THE HIGH COST OF THE REPAIR AND IN THE MEANTIME TRYING NOT TO CARRY ANY PASSENGERS. MY FATHER GOT A RECALL ON HIS 2013 FORD EDGE A FEW YEARS AGO FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND THEY REPLACED THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD WITH NO QUESTIONS ASKED AND THE DASHBOARD WAS NOT EVEN CRACKED. IT WAS NOT EVEN AN ISSUE. I WOULD THANK YOU IF YOU COULD PASS THIS ON TO ANY HIGHER AUTHORITIES AT GM. IT IS NOT RIGHT THAT THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT OR THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFETY.

THE DASH CRACKED ON PASSENGER SIDE 80 K.THIS VEHICLE IS VERY WELL-MAINTAINED IT LOOKS LIKE IT ROLLED OFF THE SHOWROOM FLOOR. TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL WHAT A JOKE. SO YOU RECALL THE VEHICLE BUT YOU DON'T HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX IT. THE VEHICLE HAS A DEFECT IN THE FUEL SYSTEM, I STARTED NOTICING IT WHEN I WOULD FILL UP WITH FUEL. IT HAS TO BUILD THE PRESSURE UP BEFORE IT'LL START. MANY MECHANICS TOLD ME THIS IS A DEFECT. KAT FRIDAY NIGHT I RAN AN ERRAND. PULLED IN THE DRIVEWAY EXITED THE VEHICLE HIT THE KEY FOB TO LOCK THE VEHICLE. I GO OUT THE NEXT MORNING AND I CAN SMELL BURNT WIRES. THE WINDOW/POWER LOCKS/MIRRORS MODULE ON DRIVERS SIDE DOOR CAUGHT ON FIRE. LUCKILY IT SHORTED OUT THE MODULE, BUT IT BURNT UP AND MELTED ONE OF THE CONNECTORS. THIS JUST HAPPENED SO I HAVE NOT HAD TIME TO FIGURE THE CAUSE. BURNS 2 QUARTS OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. GENERAL MOTORS THREW ME UNDER THE BUS IN 1988 ON A BRAND NEW PICK UP TRUCK WITH THE DEXCOOL ANTIFREEZE THAT ATE EVERY GASKET OUT OF THE ENGINE AND THEY REFUSED TO REPLACE IT I REPLACED IT AT MY COST WITH NO HELP FROM GENERAL MOTORS. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH THESE PEOPLE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF ALL THESE PROBLEMS THEY GOT TOP DOLLAR FOR THESE VEHICLES. ALL OF THESE OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SITTING STILL. THE DOOR HANDLE ON PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HAVE CUT SEVERAL PEOPLE. IT'S LIKE A RAZOR. A BRAND NEW VEHICLE HAS HAD A PIECE OF TAPE WRAPPED AROUND THE DOOR HANDLE HOW EMBARRASSING.
