There is a recall #04004. "brake hydro-boost relief valve" but my VIN# is not on the list. Over 64,000 vehicles were affected and there is a "#1" on the mounting surface. All of the units detected a machining error in the relief bore cavity for modules produced from a machine identified as "fadal #1" this can and has caused my 2004 chevrolet tahoe to have no power assist with my steering and no power brakes. I have found myself holding two feet on the brake pedal at a red light. And can not operate in small spaces such as parking garages and certain parking stalls. I wanted to know if there is something more that I can do in regards to this particular recall and find out if there is some mistake as far as my VIN# not being recognized but yet experiencing the same problems. My vehicle has become inoperable for that it is unsafe to drive with the no power assist and could cause a major accident...I want to see about receiving some aid in all this. This has been a issue since august of 2019. It has caused me to lose work for a lack of transportation. My credit has fallen behind because of not being able to make it to work and spending my savings on trying to guess at what is wrong with it. For it is my only vehicle. Now that the covid-19 is here is a double whamy! In dire straits - cali lovin my 4x4 - [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
While driving I had a real bad clunking noise in my steering wheel.I took it to the victory layne chevy dealer and spent a significant amount to pay for a defective intermediate steering shaft and column bearing replaced because I was concerned about driving it. Now my instrument cluster fuel guage is defective,the ABS light& parking brake lights don't come on with the key on or at all and there are no codes from the dealer.
I have been seeing commercials about airbags not deploying on chevy vehicles. My daughter was killed in my 04 chevy tahoe where the airbags did not deploy. She was thrown from the vehicle and also another person was in the car as well. Airbags on the drivers or passengers side did not deploy. The truck flipped several times. The drivers seat also lifted up and was split in to. We asked the investigators and our insurance company to check into why the airbags did not deploy and they said it was normal, but we knew otherwise. They did not take any further action.
Hub bearing l/f noise have taking to shop wheel falling off.450.to fix.good thing I could have got into a accident or killed someone or myself.
Steering wheel makes rattling or vibration noise all the time it doesn't matter what speed I am traveling at. Vehicle feels almost out of control. Constantly have to move the wheel to keep it on the road. No other issues other than standard wear and tear but this issue alone makes me want to junk the vehicle as I sure don't want anyone else driving it and feeling as insecure as I do.
Loss of right turn steering assist at idle speeds (e.g. While parking). 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. Please have barack call me.
