We have a 2010 tahoe. 3 years ago we replaced the battery. After that the vehicle has been having the following issues. 1. Every 3-4 months the car dies while driving. Door locks, lights, radio, etc turn on and off rapidly while driving. Loss of power, steering wheel and brakes becomes stiffi. It has done it at least 3 times while driving 70 miles per hour on the interstate. I am shocked that we didn't crashed. Other times we have been driving 15-40 MPH. 2. Battery dies when car is parked. 3. Key remote sometimes work and sometimes it doesn't. We brought the car to the location where the new battery was installed and they installed a new one. Issues continue so we started to do research. We found out that some chevrolet vehicles have issues of compatibility with the negative cable of after-market batteries so we brought it to the dealership in eldersburg md. They said they couldn't find the problem and could not recreate the issue even though we told them what we had found in our research. We paid several hundred dollars for labor and whatever they said they did.... We are still having the issues. Today it did it again. My husband said to pull over, turn the car off and wiggle the negative cable. I go to work just to find the car dead after 2 hours later. We read somewhere that there was an accident documented due to this issue. If you know if anyone at chevrolet that cares or know of someone that can actually fix this problem I would appreciate the info. Thank you!

The passenger side front interior chrome door handle has begun peeling which results in a sharp edge on the door handle which results in minor cuts on human hands when a person pulls on the handle to open the door. This is the same issue experienced with 2007 chevy tahoe which resulted in the federal safety agency ea 10004. The federal safety agency ea 10004 resulted in chevrolet extending warranty on this issue for 100,000 miles or 10 years. I contacted chevrolet about this issue with 2010 tahoe and they are not willing to extend the warranty on this model without the federal safety agency enforcement. The driver side front handle had the same problem in 2012. Gm fixed that handle for free because car was under 36,000 mile / 3 year warranty. Online search reveals that other post- 2007 model tahoe owners are having same issue. Since issue is with door handle, vehicle is stationary when door handle is used.

Dash is starting to crack on passenger side (left front area of airbag). This SUV is a 2010 chevy tahoe ls. Vehicle has around 71k miles. Wanted to check transmission level, but transmission dip stick and tube come together off from transmission. Checked under SUV, found transmission tube popped out. The bracket that holds transmission tube is broken. I was able to pop transmission tube back in. Also left rear and tight front inner chrome door handle are starting to peel off. Plan to take to chevy dealer, to see what they can do about this concerns.

The passenger door handle broke from the screw housing and not the handle itself. Chevy's response: pull too hard on door handle, $ 200 repair cost to replace handle. The dashboard in front of the steering wheel started cracking and running towards the steering wheel. Chevy's response: some time the heat will do that. $ 950 repair cost for new dashboard. My tahoe is in top shape, washed twice a week inside and out and is garaged? I don't know why the simple things are so cheap?
