The number 1 cylinder keeps fouling out spark plugs. I have changed plugs, wires, and the coil pack. This fixes the problem for about 5 miles. It runs poorly, low idle, the stability trac comes on and says it is malfunctioning and needs to be serviced

My issues started almost two years ago when dropping my child off at daycare. I was on the highway and noticed a loud ticking noise coming from the engine. At first I was not sure what it was until I pulled in the daycare and it was evident something was wrong. At that point the stablitrak and traction control light started flashing. I had to have the vehicle towed because I tried to move it and when I put it in gear it jerked so hard I was scared the engine blew. I took it to the certified chevy mechanic, cylinder 6 misfire. We replaced the plugs, coil packs etc, trying to see what the issue could be. He finally replaced all 16 lifters, cam, head gaskets and oil pump as well. Once he got it together, it was still a misfire on cylinder 6. He took it apart to look at the pistons, they were fine. The top of the motor he practically everything brand new on it. The chevy dealership are aware of the lifter issues with this vehicle and blatantly told me, I need a new engine or could purchase a new vehicle. Still no resolve as of june 23, 2020! Please issue a recall on this as so many of these vehicles have this issue and it's not fair to us that they designed the engine so poorly.

I have been dealing with the same problem as the previous complaint...ironically, my vehicle was manufactured in tx too, but, I purchased it used in va in 2011 odometer-73,625. To date, I only have 101,225- I started having constant stabilitrack/traction control issues right after 100,000- caused steering wheel to lock up and loss of power in addition to door locks suddenly locking/unlocking, car alarm going off, and hazard blinkers not working (all while in the middle of rush hour traffic)! After this constant issue was "repaired"-for 6th time, a few months later, I experienced a different problem. After waiting at a stop light, the vehicle would not accelerate-I had to push gas all the way to the floor, barely reaching 20mph, then, the car started shaking & to make matters worse, the brakes were barely working. Thankfully, I was near a parking lot & was able to pull over. This time I think it is a bcm or pcs issue. It seems the "flex-fuel" 4wd 2007 tahoes are having major issues. This should be constitute under lemon law. I am too scared to drive now-the car has been sitting in my driveway for a long time, yet I have to pay insurance & registration. I'm sick of wasting money as well. Please help us (2007 tahoe owners), fix these issues! Thank you.

After approximately 3 weeks after purchasing I notice a noise and a delay in gear shifts so I took it to the dealership and they had their mechanic look at it and came up with the transmission was bad so they ordered one and tried to install it and when I went to pick it up and drove it several days the same problem was there so I took it back and they continued to try and fix it two other times within 3 months now saying I went over my 10,000 miles so I need to pay for the transmission. I drive the car maybe 5 months and the other months it has been in the shop.

Transmission is not shifting and I see that tens of thousands of people are with the same problem on the particularly SUV 2007 chevy tahoe this transmission should be a recall or at least fix it with a low price of less than $500 so we can keep buying these trucks
