EXTERIOR LIGHTING - BRAKE LIGHTS | |||
02/15/2008 | 50000 | 10 | 03/21/1997 |
Ongoing problem with brake light failures. this has happened several times over the last few years. i ordered the tahoe through my local dealer in 1997. it only has 84,000 miles on it and has not been abused in any way. spent several hundred dollars at the dealership for repairs. the brake lights keep going out. the dealer cannot explain it. i received a ticket on february 15, 2008 for not having any brake lights. this is a dangerous situation which needs resolution. when i took my vehicle to the dealership the first time for the brake lights it cost me over $500.00. the brake light situation has never been resolved and ever since their repair the antilock brakes do not function correctly and we have had to have the brakes replaced several times. *tr | |||

Near miss with deer due to headlight lens obscurity: - while driving down fm 2252, i almost struck a dog that was walking toward the road - the plastic headlight cover has become fogged and nearly opaque, leading to obscured visibility and greatly decreased the distance the light carries - new headlight lenses (~$240 a piece) were obtained. *jb | |||

Plastic headlight lenses have become cloudy reducing light projected onto the roadway ahead. frequently the headlights of a vehicle following are so much brighter then mine that i can see the center line better in their lights. you can't drive safely if you can't see the road and lane markings. *jb | |||
EXTERIOR LIGHTING - TURN SIGNAL - FLASHER UNIT | |||
12/27/1998 | 11/01/1996 | ||
The turn signals quit working at the dealer and they never did pin-point it. the 4wd system engaged on it's own at 75 mph and the trans, cut out resulting in no power and then it returned but the 4wd system was gone. the barkes failed and then started working ok. the parking brake was in need of adjustment every 2000 miles. the abs would kick in for no reason. |
