Consumer Description
Purchased a used (128k miles) 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe LT. First month of driving (not for everyday use) noticed some strange transmission and engine hesitations when reversing. Notified the dealership and was told the transmission needed reprogramming. They reprogrammed and the problem though less noticeable, still persisted. Contacted the local and the purchased dealership to let them know of the persistent issues. Purchase dealership had me bring the vehicle back where I was told the vehicle needed a new transmission. Vehicle had less than 600 miles since my purchase. I was told it was $10k and I was liable due to the expiration of the limited warranty. Let them know these issues were identified and not fixed during the warranty period. Dealers fixed the vehicle but still charged me almost $4k. With the new transmission in place, I still noticed an engine hesitation, as if it was missing. Had new plugs installed but still no luck. Was told that cylinder deactivation may have caused lifter issues. Took it to my local dealer and thought the issue was obvious, they said they couldn’t find the issue. I was charged $300 for a non diagnosis or fix. The issue still persist
