On 7 occasions (after 3 they reset the code, then a month later I brought my vehicle in of they had vehicle for 30 days of which put in 3 parts. After 800 at dealership they cancelled remaining warranty with agreement for me to afford payment to fix except it kept happening. While driving 2009 tahoe driving approached corner and brake system failed. Was able to coast to a stop. Shut off vehicle and restarted vehicle and it started to work fine. It will not fix while driving and it is an extreme safety hazard. Vehicle acceleration has delay or lack of power when accelerating. When attempting to brake, vehicle continues to increase momentum for brief moments. I've had the vehicle back for 2 months and problem with brake failure and acceleration hesitation/in fluctuations has happened and continues to happen. By phone agreement talking with dealership where vehicle was purchased, was going to return vehicle today but the owner bill nettleton refused. I need this vehicle safe so I can drive it or sell it.

Heat sensor on the dash bord never work correctly because of my crack dash board. And even it is freezing out side, with in 5 minutes, needle will shoot to full in red zone. Make my car shut off , I had to replace it 3 times at 325.00. I would like to be reimbursed. The sensor comes on at least 4 times a year after the dash cracked.

The dashboard is cracked in 2 areas. One at the airbag and over the speed odometer gage area. I also had to replace the instrument panel dash-knee bolster because it became loose and broke into hundred pieces when I attempted to press it back into place. Bad material - too brittle

Have owned since 2010. Have had the vehicle lose power while driving a couple of years ago. The throttle body was replaced. The vehicle idles rough (you can feel it idle but not all of the time). Dealership said they could not detect a rough idle issue. Later, another issue with the throttle body causing the check engine light and misfires in cylinder (have paperwork inside vehicle) replaced a sensor related to the throttle body. Last friday, march 2, 2018 driving on a crowded downtown street the tahoe began to idle rough again, to the point of the seat belts shaking and the engine sounded as if it were about to lose power again (been there done that). Arrived at work placed the vehicle in park and the traction control/stabilitrak message appeared that both were off, then the warning service traction control flashed then to service stabilitrak. I looked into the issue and called the dealer ship as well as the warranty folks telling them of the issue made appt for following day to bring in. Went to drive home, the check engine light is now on and the car is rocking and sounds like it might stall out in rush hour traffic. Limped the car to the closest dealer out of fear of an accident should the car shut down driving home. Researched online, found that this is an issue with a tsb issued # 11273 that noone has ever mentioned with the multiple times the vehicle has been repaired due to the issue listed in the bulletin that could have caused a devastating accident as I drive 5 - 6 kids to school every morning and can not imagine why this was not shared with me as an owner (registered with gms website with the VIN) so I am sure to receive updates for issues just like this, that no one has ever mentioned even though the repairs are identical to what is stated in the gm issued technical service bulletin # 11273.
