| On sept 21, 2012 i was driving home for lunch and after driving for about 10 minutes i notice my radio shut off and on, the power door locks kept locking and unlocking. also, the gauges on the dash where coming on and off and all the lights inside on the tahoe where going on and off also. as soon as everything stopped my airbags deployed and hit my face and chest. i remember a cloud of white powder and realized i was still driving. i was able to avoid running into on coming traffic. | |||

| Leaving to go on vacation and putting things in the rear of car when we noticed that the hinge on the right side of the liftgate was broken. we managed to secure the window and had to go anyway. never opened the rear again until leaving to come home from vacation and noticed that the other side has broken off . we managed to secure the window and drove home very caustiously praying that the window would stay in place. checked to see if there was a recall on this, but to no avail. , but i did see where this has been a constant problem . | |||

| Instrumentation problem. spedometer stepper motor does not reset to zero. this results in the inaccurate reporting of vehicle speed. this is a safety hazard. this issue is widely reported throughout the internet. we lent a ton of money to gm and they need to be called to the carpet to remedy these issues promptly. | |||

| Transmission had to be replaced and i paid for half, gm goodwill paid for half. when you pay over $42,000 for a vehicle it should last more than 50,000 miles! | |||

| The hinge that holds the rear lift gate window onto the vehicle has broken/separated from the glass due to stress or improper installation. the window is in tact, but the window part of the lift gate cannot be opened and closed properly and when closed, it is not seated in the proper position. this part of the lift gate has probably been used about 5 times in the life of the truck which now has about 53,000 miles on it. i have reported the problem to chevrolet which denies any knowledge of this happening to other vehicles. i am concerned about the possibility of the window breaking loose entirely during the time the vehicle is being driven. chevrolet's only option is to 'try' to glue the part back onto the window or replace the window entirely at my cost of nearly $1000. this is not acceptable and in my opinion, is a serious accident waiting to happen. i believe it needs to be addressed as a safety issue and a recall issued to have this taken care of. | |||

| Hinge on rear liftgate window separated from the window and prevented window from latching. (the hinge failure cocked the window and made it crooked on the liftgate.) this window has only been opened maybe 2 - 3 dozen times total in 7 years. if i hadn't been focused, i might have driven off and window might have blown off the vehicle as most of my driving is on highways. if someone else had been driving it and not noticed the imperfect way the window closed (which would be probable), the window most assuredly would have blown off due to wind turbulence. | |||

| 2004 chevrolet tahoe reduced engine power. occurs intermittently and only allows you to go about 25 mph. very unsafe if on a highway. gm dealer replaced the faulty wire harness and plug that plugs into the throttle body. also replaced throttle body itself. | |||

| My 2004 chevrolet tahoe has a problem with the speedometer not giving accurte readings. it will jump from 0 to 120 mph and stick somewhere in between or give a false mph reading or just go to zero and register nothing. the problem seems prevalent with all tahoes. gm needs to have a recall and fix this dangerous situation instead of charging everybody $500-$900 when they know they have a serious defect. this problem has been ongoing now for the last 2 years. | |||
