2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE Engine Problems

Front airbag and rollover airbag are not working.

The oil keeps disappearing in the car I fill it with 7 Quartz of oil and two months or less it’s all gone I heard there was a issue with this before but no recall my engine almost blew two weeks after a oil change I thought that’s wrong I have oil so I had it reset then three months later my engine was ticking so I took it in and there was no oil they put 7 more quartz of oil and no again it’s all gone I had more put back in and I think this should be a recall I called the dealer and they said they won’t do anything unless I pay for it to be fixed but it’s been a known issue for years and they don’t do nothing about it I am a young person that doesn’t have $3,000 to pay to fix this...

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...

ENGINE BEGAN BURNING OIL AT A RATE OF 2 1/2 QUARTS PER 1500 MILES, SAW PROBLEM WITH ENGINE LISTED WITH NHTSA WEBSITE, ASKED DEALERSHIP ABOUT ISSUE AROUND 122,000 MILES BUT WAS TOLD NOT AWARE OF PROBLEMS, DIDNT GET HELP UNTIL 135000 MILES FROM ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND HAD TO PAY FOR HALF TO HAVE ENGINE REBUILT

THE O2 SENSOR CAN LOSE FROM ITS HOUSING. I HAD NEVER DONE ANY REPAIRS TO THIS O2 SENSOR. WHICH IT IS LOCATED AT POSITION BANK 1 SENSOR 2. THE SENSOR CONNECTION CAME LOSE FROM WHERE IT IS HELD ON TO THE FRAME. IT CAUSED THE WIRING TO GET SLACK AND WRAP AROUND THE DRIVE SHAFT. THIS HAPPENED AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK. I STARTED TO HEAR A NOISE COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. AS I LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE SUV I SEEN THE O2 SENSOR WAS CAUGHT ON THE SHAFT. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A ONCE TIME INCIDENT THAT HAD OCCURRED TO ME. BUT AS I WENT TO THE SALVAGE YARD TO GET A HARNESS. THEY TOLD ME THIS WAS A COMMON ISSUE ON THESE MODEL TRUCKS.

THE NUMBER 1 CYLINDER KEEPS FOULING OUT SPARK PLUGS. I HAVE CHANGED PLUGS, WIRES, AND THE COIL PACK. THIS FIXES THE PROBLEM FOR ABOUT 5 MILES. IT RUNS POORLY, LOW IDLE, THE STABILITY TRAC COMES ON AND SAYS IT IS MALFUNCTIONING AND NEEDS TO BE SERVICED

MY ISSUES STARTED ALMOST TWO YEARS AGO WHEN DROPPING MY CHILD OFF AT DAYCARE. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND NOTICED A LOUD TICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. AT FIRST I WAS NOT SURE WHAT IT WAS UNTIL I PULLED IN THE DAYCARE AND IT WAS EVIDENT SOMETHING WAS WRONG. AT THAT POINT THE STABLITRAK AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED BECAUSE I TRIED TO MOVE IT AND WHEN I PUT IT IN GEAR IT JERKED SO HARD I WAS SCARED THE ENGINE BLEW. I TOOK IT TO THE CERTIFIED CHEVY MECHANIC, CYLINDER 6 MISFIRE. WE REPLACED THE PLUGS, COIL PACKS ETC, TRYING TO SEE WHAT THE ISSUE COULD BE. HE FINALLY REPLACED ALL 16 LIFTERS, CAM, HEAD GASKETS AND OIL PUMP AS WELL. ONCE HE GOT IT TOGETHER, IT WAS STILL A MISFIRE ON CYLINDER 6. HE TOOK IT APART TO...

I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE PREVIOUS COMPLAINT...IRONICALLY, MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN TX TOO, BUT, I PURCHASED IT USED IN VA IN 2011 ODOMETER-73,625. TO DATE, I ONLY HAVE 101,225- I STARTED HAVING CONSTANT STABILITRACK/TRACTION CONTROL ISSUES RIGHT AFTER 100,000- CAUSED STEERING WHEEL TO LOCK UP AND LOSS OF POWER IN ADDITION TO DOOR LOCKS SUDDENLY LOCKING/UNLOCKING, CAR ALARM GOING OFF, AND HAZARD BLINKERS NOT WORKING (ALL WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC)! AFTER THIS CONSTANT ISSUE WAS "REPAIRED"-FOR 6TH TIME, A FEW MONTHS LATER, I EXPERIENCED A DIFFERENT PROBLEM. AFTER WAITING AT A STOP LIGHT, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE-I HAD TO PUSH GAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, BARELY REACHING 20MPH, THEN, THE CAR STARTED SHAKING & TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, THE BRAKES WERE BARELY WORKING. THANKFULLY, I WAS NEAR A PARKING LOT & WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER. THIS...

STABILTRAKAR AND ONLY HALF THE MOTOR IS RUNNING

SOMETIMES THE STABLE TRACK SYSTEM COMES ON AND GOES OFF CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION AND CARTER JERK AND STEER POORLY TOO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF

MY 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE WILL SPORADICALLY DISPLAY TWO M.I.L. 'S - SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND SERVICE STABILITRAK. I HAVE SPENT CLOSE TO $4,000 ON DIFFERENT PARTS, AS WELL AS HAVING THE HEADS COMPLETELY REBUILT ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO. THE ONLY TROUBLE CODES IT SHOWS WHEN HOOKED TO A SCANNER ARE A P0300 (GENERIC MISFIRE DETECTED) P0301 (MISFIRE CYLINDER 1) AND 0443 (EVAP EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM VALVE CIRCUIT). AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS OF RESEARCH ONLINE, IT IS BLATANTLY OBVIOUS THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL THOUSAND PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES. IT APPEARS THERE IS NO DIRECT SUREFIRE RESOLUTION. BUT RATHER A COMMON OCCURRENCE THAT IS SOMETIMES VERY LABOR INTENSIVE AND EXTREMELY INVASIVE TO TRACK DOWN THE SPECIFIC PROBLEM. I HAVE REPLACED THE BRAKE LIGHT CONTROL SWITCH, ADDED A SECONDARY BACKUP BATTERY AS WELL AS ADDITIONAL POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE CABLES, REPLACE THE PLUGS, PLUG WIRES AND IGNITION COIL PACKS. IT SEEMS TO BE...

HIGHWAY! COMPANY MIDWEST TRANSPORT INC DOT#1084722 TRUCK MOTOR BLEW AS I WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AT 55MPH I LOST CONTROL TRUCK BEGAIN TO JACKKNIFE TRUCK#9005

BAD ENGINE CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. BURN EXCESSIVE OIL AND WATER. MOTOR MAKES LOUD NOISES. BRAKES HAVE TO BE CHANGED EVERY 2 MONTHS. GRINDING NOISES WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR FEET OF THE GAS , SOUNDS LIKE A 18 WHEELER BREAKING DOWN TO STOP. NOW THE ENGINE WON'T TURN OVER. REPLACED SENSORS AND TIMING BUT STILL NOT CRANKING. SO NOW IT NEEDS A MOTOR. DASHBOARD IS CRACKED UP SO BAD YOU CAN SEE INSIDE TO AIRBAG. WHICH SOMETIMES GETS EXTREMELY HOT.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 CHEV TAHOE TODAY, WHILE IN MOTION, THE STABILITRAK WARNING CAME UP ON MY DASH ALONG WITH TRACTION CONTROL WARNING. THEN THE ENGINE STARTED STRUGGLING. I GOOGLED THESE PROBLEMS AND IT APPEARS GM RECALLED MODELS FROM 2014 AND 2015 WITH THE SAME ISSUES. THEY NEED TO RECALL ALL IMPACTED MODELS. IF THIS CAUSES THE ENGINE TO LOSE POWER, IT COULD CAUSE A DANGEROUS SITUATION.

TAKATA RECALL

UNDER NUMEROUS CIRCUMSTANCES, THE "SERVICE STABLILITRAK AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL " APPEARS IN THE DASH MESSAGE CENTER ALONG WITH AUDIBLE BEEPS. SHORTLY AFTER THIS HAPPENS THE VEHICLE ENGINE GOES INTO LIMP MODE WITH LIMITED POWER AND SPEED. I HAVE BEEN ON INTERSTATES WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC AND THIS BECOMES CHALLENGING TO REMEDY ASAP AND GET OUT OF THE WAY. THE ORIGINAL PART SUGGESTED WAS THE THROTTLE BODY, THIS WAS REPLACED AND THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO GO AWAY FOR 12-16 MONTH. THE PROBLEM HAS COME BACK AND THE THROTTLE BODY IS NOT SUSPECT THIS TIME. THE DEALER BASCIALLY TROUBLE SHOOTS THE PROBLEM WITH PARTS.

MY CHEVROLET TAHOE, DESPITE REGULAR MAINTENANCE PER SCHEDULE, LOSES ON QUART OF OIL EVERY 2500 MILES. THERE ARE NO LEAKS, SMOKING EXHAUST ETC. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS ON THE VEHICLE HAVE BEEN A NIGHTMARE. THE IGNITION WILL AT TIMES FAIL TO TURN OFF DESPITE REMOVING THE KEY. THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL POP OUT OF CRUISE MODE FOR NO REASON AND WILL OFTEN FAIL TO REENGAGE IMMEDIATELY. LITHIA CHEVROLET IN REDDING REFUSES TO DISCUSS REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT, STATING IT IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM. I ALSO HAVE A RECALLED TAKATA AIRBAG THAT LITHIA REFUSES TO REPLACE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. AFTER HAVING THE OIL CHANGED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND THE STABILITRAK INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 183,544.

TL* THE CONTACT COMMITED TO A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE AT AN AUCTION. WHILE TEST DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT ANY SPEED, THE CHECK ENGINE AND REDUCE ENGINE POWER WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 156,000.

THE PROBLEM IS STATED IN TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN PIP4568S & #10-06-01-008M THAT GM SENT OUT REGARDING AFN LIFTERS FAILING DUE TO OIL STARVATION. GM KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND SENT OUT THE INFORMATION ON HOW TO DIAGNOSE IT AND FIX IT. HOWEVER THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM IN THE 5.3L ENGINES AND A VERY EXPENSIVE PROBLEM! IN MY SITUATION IT CAUSED A SOAK PLUG AND THE SPARK PLUG HOUSING TO BLOW COMPLETELY OUT OF THE ENGINE! WHICH COULD HAVE INJURED SOMEONE OR CAUSED DAMAGE TO SOMETHING IF IT HAD GOTTEN OUT OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. I WAS ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY GOING 50 MPH WITH HIGH TRAFFIC. AS STATED THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND GM WON'T EVEN COVER ANY PORTION OF THE COST TO FIX IT! IN MY CASE I ONLY OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR 4 MONTHS AND HAD THIS HAPPEN. I AM NOW PAYING FOR A VEHICLE THAT...

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

OUR 2007 CHEVY TAHOE HAD BEEN DRIVEN FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND THEN PARKED FOR APPROXIMATELY TWO HOURS. UPON STARTING THE TAHOE WITH COLD ENGINE AND PULLING AWAY FROM THE CURB THERE WAS AN IMMEDIATE SMELL OF SOMETHING TOXIC COMING FROM THE AIR VENTS FOLLOWED BY BLACK SMOKE FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AND TURNED OFF AND LESS THAN A MINUTE LATER THERE WERE FLAMES EMANATING FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND WITHIN A COUPLE OF MINUTES THE HOOD WAS BLOWN OPEN AND THE ENTIRE FRONT OF THE CAR WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES.

"TAKATA RECALL" AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. MY 07 CHEVY TAHOE BURNS 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000-1500 MILES? DEALER TOLD ME THIS IS "NORMAL"?????? IT IS NOT NORMAL FOR ANY VEHICLE TO BURN THIS MUCH OIL IN SUCH LITTLE TIME!! CHEVY WON'T CORRECT THESE PROBLEMS! THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH SAME TROUBLES. YET STILL NO RECALL?????

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REDUCED ENGINE SPEED WARNING INDICATOR RANDOMLY FLASHED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE DRASTICALLY REDUCED SPEED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY POSITION SENSOR, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

MY TRUCK IS CONSUMING LOTS OF OIL AND GAS. TOOK IT FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND THEY SAY IT WAS NO OIL IN IT AFTER PUTTING IN TWO QUARTS IN TWO DAYS AGO. MY TRUCK WAS SAYING I HAD OIL BUT I DIDNT BY THE STICK. MY STABILITRACK AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT IS ON AND IT IS RUNNING ROUGH. THE COMPUTER IS READING A MISFIRE IN CYLINDER ONE. GOT EVERYTHING CHECKED AND I WAS TOLD IT IS SOMETHING INSIDE THE ENGINE. I REAFMD ABOUT ALOT OF COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME THING THATS WRONG WITH MY TRUCK. THEIR NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THESE ENGINES WITH THE AMOUNT OF OIL IT CONSUMES AND DAMAGJNG THE ENGINE...PLEASE TELL ME CAN YOU ALL HELP!!

TRUCK REQUIRES A QUART OF OIL EVERY 1500 MILES. I KNEW IT WAS A GAS HOG BUT SURPRISED WHEN IT BURN AS MUCH OIL AS FUEL. PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILED TO ILLUMINATE AS WELL AS THE LIGHTING WHERE THE RADIO WAS LOCATED. THE CONTACT NOTICED AN ABNORMAL ODOR INSIDE THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE AIR VENTS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 155,120.

DASH IS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES AROUND AIRBAG. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM BUGS OUT WHEN DRIVING IN RAIN RNGINE CONSUMES 2 QUARTS OF OIL IN BETWEEN CHANGES

MY STRABILITRAK AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL BEGAN FLASHING ON AND CAUSED THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO TURN OFF. THEN IT READS, ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED. THIS BEGAN IN NOVEMBER 201. I HAVE TAKEN IT THREE TIMES TO BE FIXED. FIRST I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY, THEN A SWITCH GEAR, THEN A FUEL INDUCTION CLEANING SERVICE. IT IS STILL HAPPENING, JUST TWICE THIS WEEK. THE ENGINE SLOWING DOWN WHILE ON THE FREEWAY PROVES TO BE DEADLY. IN REVIEWING COMMENTS IN THE CHEVROLETFORUM.COM MANY CONSUMERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WITH THE SAME RESULTS (A GUESSING GAME) WHY ISN'T THIS A RECALL?

130,000 MILES ON THIS 2007 TAHOE. HAD JUST EXITED THE FREEWAY AND WAS GOING ABOUT 30 MPH ON A HIGH TRAFFIC STREET (SPEED LIMIT IS 55) WHEN MY CAR STARTED SHAKING AND THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON, ENGINE STABILIZING, BRAKE LIGHT TURNED ON, TRACK CONTROL STABILIZING, EVERY LIGHT/SENSOR TURNED ON AS MY CAR WAS SHUTTING DOWN. THE ENGINE WAS STILL ON AND WAS SHAKING BUT I COULD NOT DRIVE. I TURNED THE CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN TURNED IT BACK ON JUST SO I CAN TRY TO GET BACK TO WORK. TAKING IT TO THE SHOP AFTER WORK TO SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE SERVICE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT, AND STABILTRAC WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE HESITATED AND FAILED TO RESPOND. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY OR PARKED, IT BACKFIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 171,000.

THE VEHICLE HAS A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY AND THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR THAT CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO GO INTO "ENGINE POWER REDUCED" MODE WHICH BASICALLY MEANS THE VEHICLE DOESN'T MOVE. THE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING, BUT THE VEHICLE IS INOPERABLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME DOZENS OF TIMES, IN INTERSECTIONS, AND I HAVE TO ROLL OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ADDITIONALLY, THE INTAKE GASKETS LEAK ALLOWING FLUID INTO THE ENGINE. THE DASH CRACKED. WE HAVE ALSO REPLACED THE AIR RIDE SHOCKS (LTZ MODEL), THE CONNECTOR WILL WEAR A HOLE IN THE SHOCK. WE HAVE ALSO REPLACED BROKEN MOTOR MOUNTS AND TIE ROD ENDS. ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE WAS CONSTANTLY RUNNING HOT AND WE REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT AND RADIATOR. THE VEHICLE LEAKS OIL AND OUR MECHANIC SAID THAT IT'S THE REAR MAIN SEAL THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

MY 2007 TAHOE ALL OF THE SUDDEN STARTED SHAKING AND BUCKING WHILE DRIVING WITH MY WIFE AND TWO SMALL KIDS (ON VALENTINES! WIFE WAS NOT HAPPY). THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL AS WARNING MESSAGES SAYING THE TRACTION CONTROL FAILED, CHECK BRAKE SYSTEM AND SERVICE STABILINK SYSTEM. IT LIMPED TO OUR HOUSE AND THEN IT STALLED AND EVENTUALLY WAS VERY HARD TO START. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP NEXT MORNING AND WAS TOLD THAT THE #6 LIFTER COLLAPSED AND THEY NEEDED TO CHECK THE CAMSHAFT TO SEE IF THAT WAS DAMAGED. I'M STILL WAITING ON THE CALL TO SEE WHAT THE TOTAL DAMAGE IS BUT I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. I ALSO SAW A LOT OF PEOPLE'S COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF THE SAME THING. GM NEEDS TO OWN UP AND RECALL THIS ISSUE. THE ESTIMATE I GOT WAS AROUND $3,500-$4,500 TO REPAIR THIS.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND I LOST ALL POWER AND ALL MY LIGHTS CAME ON ON MY DASH I JUST ABOUT GOT HIT FROM BEHIND

USES A QUART ON OIL EVERY 1,000 MILES BUT IT IS NOT LEAKING IT.

TRUCK BURNS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF ENGINE OIL. I HAVE TO ADD A QUART ABOUT EVERY 800-1000 MILES. I KNOW THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE AND A MANUFACTURER ERROR WITH THE ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT CONTROL.

AIR BAG LIGHTS CAME ON AND SENSORS NEED TO BE REPLACED I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS BEING IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IT IS DEFECT ON GMC PART.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. THE ENGINE, SPARK PLUGS, INTAKE MANIFOLD, AND SENSORS ARE ALL AFFECTED.

I PURCHASED MY 2007 TAHOE TO BE THE LAST CAR I WOULD NEED TO BUY AS I AM NEAR RETIREMENT. I AM VERY WORRIED NOW THAT IT WILL NEED SOME MAJOR REPAIRS TO CORRECT THE OIL CONSUMPTION. CHEVROLET SHOULD COVER THESE REPAIRS AS IT IS OBVIOUS THERE IS A DESIGN PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE AND THOUSANDS OF USERS HAVE THIS PROBLEM. FOR THE ENORMOUS COST OF THE VEHICLE I EXPECTED BETTER. I SHOULD HAVE KEPT MY OLD 1998 TAHOE. IT PROBABLY WOULD STILL BE RUNNING AND WOULDNT NEED OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES.

A POP WAS HEARD UNDER THE ENGINE AREA AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAT THE CAR BEGAN TO IDLE VERY ROUGH. IT WOULD NOT RUN PROPERLY AND HAD TO PULL OFF THE STREET INTO A GAS STATION. INSIDE THE CAR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE STABILITRAK SERVICE SOON LIGHT WERE ON. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES WE TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN, WE DECIDED TO MOVE AGAIN AND THE IDLING WAS WORSE. THE STABILITRAK AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WERE FLASHING ON AND OFF. WE BEGAN TO MOVE BUT THE CAR WAS IDLING VERY BAD AND SHIFTING VERY HARD AFTER A FEW FEET OF MOVEMENT. WE DROVE THE CAR TO THE NEAREST FIRESTONE DEALER TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. FIRESTONE CALLED TO NOTIFY US THAT THE CYLINDER #1 WAS EITHER STUCK/FROZE AND THAT WE WOULD NEED TO OPEN THE CYLINDERCOVER TO SEE EXACTLY WHAT WAS WRONG. THE NEXT DAY FIRESTONE...

OIL CONSUMPTION OF AT LEAST A QUART BETWEEN OIL CHANGES, MISFIRING AT IDLE CAUSING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, STABILITY TRACK CONTROL SERVICE LIGHT. CHEVROLET TELLS ME THERE IS NOT EVEN 1 SERVICE BULLETIN OR RECALL NOTICE ON MY TAHOE. *TR

EXTREME OIL CONSUMPTION ON MY 2007 CHEVY TAHOE...HAVE TO ADD OIL EVERY TIME AT APPROXIMATELY 1500 - 2000 MILES AFTER OIL CHANGE. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. CHEVY KNOWS ABOUT NUMEROUS AMOUNTS OF COMPLAINTS ON 2007 TAHOE'S AND THEY DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. ALSO HAVE COMPLAINTS ON CRACKED DASHBOARD...THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING AT ALL. THIS SUV COST ME 50K AND WE SHOULD NOT BE EXPERIENCING THESE PROBLEMS....HELP!!! *TR
