Near collision with pedestrian in crosswalks on left turns and near collision with pedestrians crossing multi lane roads who entering from a landscaped center island. I have repeatedly experienced this situation even though I am acutely aware of the view obstruction created by the large A-pillar, air bag and drivers side mirror. It has become evident from the incidents in my neighborhood that trucks and SUV's are involved in the fatalities at crosswalks and multi lane roadways. An recent fatality occurred on December 10 2022 in Poway at the intersection of Midland and Edgmoore Rd. 35yr old women killed in crosswalk by driver making left turn. The January 24th 2022 fatality happened on Community Rd. in Poway 92064. It would appear your forms are incident focused and not geared to identify safety hazards that have not been considered. Please contact me to discus this safety issue if you have seen...

THE EXTERIOR PAINT STARTING FADING, CLEAR COAT NOT HOLDING UP
I HAVE A 2016 TAHOE THAT I PURCHASED NEW FROM DEALER. I HAD ALSO PURCHASED A PROTECTION PLAN WITH FINISHING TOUCH THAT THEY TALKED US INTO WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR ON THE PAINT AND INTERIOR. 3.5 YEARS INTO OWNERSHIP THE PAINT ON THE HOOD AND ROOF FADED. WE CONTACTED THE PROTECTION PLAN AND THEY WERE MORE THAN WILLING TO TAKE CARE OF. THEY SENT AN ADJUSTER OUT AND HE CLASSIFIED AS CLEAR COAT FAILURE. THEN THE RUN AROUND STARTED. I CONTACTED CHEVROLET AND I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP. WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TALKED WITH THE ASSISTANT MANAGER IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. HE BROUGHT OUT THE MANAGER AND HE CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS PAINT FAILURE. SO THEN THE DEALERSHIP GETS INVOLVED WITH CHEVROLET. THE FIRST CALL COMES BACK AND SAYS THEY WILL COVER 20%. I TOLD THEM THAT SOME ONE WAS GOING TO COVER THE REPAIRS AND...
VERY POOR COATING ON FRAME. COATING PEELS AND FLAKES OFF, EVEN ON A LIGHTLY USED VEHICLE. AFTER COATING PEELS OFF THE FRAME AND COMPONENTS BEGINS TO RUST.
I HAVE A 2016 CHEVY TAHOE WITH 33,000 MILES ON IT AND THE PAINT ON THE HOOD AND ROOF AND THE SIDES OF THE SUV IS CRACKING WITH LINES / SWIRL RUNNING ALL OVER THE OUTSIDE OF THE SUV I BROUGHT IT TO A COUPLE BODY SHOP AND INFORM ME THE TRUCK WAS NOT PAINTED PROPERLY. BECAUSE YOU COULD SEE THE STEEL BODY SHOWING THROUGH THE PAINT
MY SUNROOF IS LEAKING BY THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR AND ABOVE THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WHEN IT RAINS AND THE SUNROOF MAKES A LOUD WHISTLING NOISE WHEN I GO OVER 60 MPH.
THURSDAY, APRIL 12, 2018. HEADING TO WORK ONE MORNING ON THE INTERSTATE, THE GIRL IN FRONT OF ME PUT ON BREAKS (WE WERE IN THE FAST LANE), SO I PUT ON MY BREAKS. I LOOKED IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SAW THE DRIVER BEHIND ME NOT PAYING ATTENTION AND GOING 50-55 MPH. I HAD ENOUGH TIME TO BRACE MYSELF BEFORE HE HIT ME FROM BEHIND WHICH MADE ME HIT THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME (I HAVE VIDEO AND PICTURES). FORTUNATELY, MY TAHOE HELD UP PRETTY GOOD AND DIDN'T CRUMBLE WITH THE TYPE OF IMPACT IT HAD. MY CONCERN IS MY AIRBAGS DID DEPLOY BUT ACTUALLY DIDN'T. THE SMOKE CAME OUT FROM THE AIRBAGS THROUGH THE DASH AND MY AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT CAME ON MY ALERTS ON THE DASH. IF I WOULDN'T HAVE PREPARED AND BRACED MYSELF THEN MY FACE WOULD HAVE GONE IN THE STEERING WHEEL. I DIDN'T...
