Exterior door handle have broken on 4 separate occasions 2010, 2011, 2013, 2015. Replacement door handle also broke.
My dash has cracked in 2 spots, it is obvious this is a manufacturer defect. My biggest concern is that the one crack that leads to the air bag cover...that could potentially open hitting my son in the face causing bodily harm. When I spoke to the dealership (bryan chevrolet) for replacement...I was informed that this was a common problem and would not be covered by my warranty. However, if I wanted replaced it would be expensive ($1000.00). Bottom line, I got nowhere with them, now that one crack has grown to two cracks...and the other crack is on the left corner of the dash above the instrument cluster. I find it appalling that so many complaints have been lodged on various websites and still gm refuses to acknowledge and much less replace all these defective dashboards. I agree that there should be a class action law suit filed to make all affected parties whole in a retroactive manner. The gross amount of complaints clearly indicate that his not a frivolous complaint and gm should be held accountable.
So far, 3 of the 4 exterior door handles have broken for no apparent reason. These are cheaply made plastic, not designed to handle the force of simply opening a door. This car is otherwise in great condition, has very low mileage, and is usually only driven with one occupant. The passenger side doors have not been opened very often for a car with mileage in the low 40's. This would be dangerous to small children or people with thin fingers as it would be quite easy to get a finger caught between the broken door handle and the body of the car. The handles do not look broken. The act of opening the door causes the handle to pull away from the body of the door. A quick internet search reveals that this is a common problem with this vehicle. A dealer told me today that they replaced 8 handles for 1 customer. That's at a price between $250 and $300 per handle. I was going to begin looking for a new car today. If this is how chevrolet stands behind it's vehicles, they will not be included in my search.
Driver side exterior door handle pulled off as I was opening the car door.
The dashboard is cracked in the top left corner of the passenger airbag.
I have had this vehicle just over 30 days and the dash was fine when I purchased it. I started my vehicle the next morning and when I went out the dash was cracked. It has since gotten 10x worse than that and has actually gotten the point where pieces are missing from the dash.
Dash has split straight through where the passenger side airbag is installed.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet tahoe. The contact stated that the passenger side dashboard developed multiple cracks extending from the corner where the air bag was positioned. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the dashboard needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure.

About couple months ago we notice about an 8 inch long crack on the dashboard above the cluster driver side. And I first thought it had to be sun damage. So pretty bum about it. Then recently about a week ago watching the local news on tv. There was a similar issue about crack dashboards. And then checking on this website there's multiple very identical issues. So now in hope there's a recall coming soon. And also notice the inside door handles the chrome is coming apart leaving really sharp edges. So I notice there's similar complaints in regards to this door handles.
Dashboard cracked at left corner of airbag as well as cracking above the left side of the instrument panel. The crack over the airbag is what concerns me in that my airbag may not deploy correctly in the event of an accident or may cause significant harm from chards of plastic being sent at me...
Vehicle electrical system repeatedly shuts off while driving. Loss of critical components that are required to control vehicle. No warning whatsoever...
It was parked at the store parking lot and suddenly it was on fire it was totally destroyed the front, the seats and all the motor and nearest parts.
The dashboard on the passenger side around the air bag has cracked significantly and the area on either side of the air bag cover are bowing up. It appears that where is a significant risk of the dashboard fragmenting if the air bag were to be deployed.
My door handles are coming off!! I have the chrome style handles. I went to open the driver door to get in and ripped the handle right off the door almost fell back it came off so easily ... So I took it to the dealer who said 205.00 to fix it I'm holding off and now that I have been using the passenger door this one is now coming off!! The inside handles are flaking/ peeling and are really sharp as well it has cut me a few times. This is terrible and I shouldn't have to pay to replace handles on a door!! I've never had this prob w any other make this is my first gm and my first chevrolet and will prob be my last bc its made so cheaply I will reconsider if they recall this.
My 2007 chevrolet tahoe has multiple cracks in the dashboard above the instrument panel and airbag. This is a very serious safety issue with pieces braking off if the airbags were to go off in a accident.
2 exterior door handles have came off multiply times even after bring to dealer came off again a year later. Interior door handles are chipping for my 2007 chevrolet ltz tahoe.
Noticed cracks in dashboard. 1. Above instrument cluster approx.6 " vertical to driver , 2nd is at the upper left corner of passenger air bag. Safety concern is flying projectile (s) of dash plastic to driver and or passengers if air bag(s) are deployed.
I have two cracks in my dashboard. One is huge over the drivers side control cluster and the second, I believe, poses a big safety concern. The second crack is at the corner of the passenger airbag. I'm concerned that the airbag will not deploy with this defect and if it does the sharp edges/shards of the dash will either injure the passenger and/or others in the car, or rip the airbag making it useless. Airbags are a legal requirement. I have been on many forums and pages regarding the chevy tahoe and there are hundreds of people with this very same problem. I really believe gm/chevy should order a recall. I also have a minor claim about the rubber on the steering wheel and the paint on the stereo/climate control buttons. All of which is peeling off. I have also see hundreds of writings about this problem. We have already had to replace the steering wheel and stereo/climate control. And the problem persisted on the new items. I paid way to much for the vehicle to be doing this. I also have no intentions of getting a new car; however, as they problem persist, especially the safety issues. I just may be forced to .
There are two cracks in my dashboard around the airbag areas. This should never happen! Wondering if it will affect my airbags from working properly.
Dashboard cracked at left corner of airbag as well as cracking above the left side of the instrument panel. The crack over the airbag concerns me in that my airbag may not deploy correctly in the event of an accident or may cause significant harm from chards of plastic.
Dash is extremely cracked in three plates including by airbag this is a safety issue.
My dashboard cracked and I'm concerned about my airbags. I guess a lot of the chevy tahoes have had issues with the dashboard cracking.
Exterior door handles - front passenger door, both rear passenger doors. Bolt has broken on all 3 handles and has pulled away from the body of the vehicle. This seems to be a common occurrence for all gm vehicles with these style of exterior door handles. Someone could fall and get injured will trying to open a door.
Passenger side dash cracked adjacent to airbag, very concerned about integrity of airbag system and possible safety issue.
Dashboard is cracked on both driver and passenger side near airbags. My fear is that due to that the airbags wont function properly.
My dash cracked, on it's own. I'm sure this has to effect my airbag functionality. I have a huge crack on my driver's side behind the steering wheel.
Dash cracked where the passenger air bag is located. I fear that the air bags will puncture if deployed or the passenger wil be injured due to dash pieces being projected at them.
Dashboard cracks with sharp edges around airbag causing noisy airbag area vibration and separation form dashboard, it is scary thing to have when my wife or one of the kids in the vehicle with me.
