When traveling above 30 mph then decelerating, once the car gets to around 15-20 mph it jumps forward. it's similar to when you drive a stickshift and take your foot off the clutch and the car jumps forward as if it might stall. it doesn't happen regularly. if i decelerate very quickly, then it does not do it. if i decelerate slowly then it does not do it. it has to be somewhere in between and the car is confused between staying in gas mode or switching to hybrid mode and auto stop. the car then jumps forward when confused.
Tahoe middle seat belt buckles have all come apart. i contacted local chevy dealer and they said it's not safe to drive uh no sh*t?! once again cracks on dashboard by passenger airbags and all over ridiculous! middle console started to smoke on 4/2018 and i have to have everything disconnected. i contacted dealer and they said to file complaints with y'all.
The air/heat system completely quit working. no shop that has looked at it can tell what is wrong with it.
I have been the only owner of my 2008 chevy tahoe, my dash has cracked twice and replaced, now my dash is cracked again. this is obviously an issue with this specific vehicle as i am among thousands that are having the exact same issue. i do not have warranty any longer and neither gm nor the dealership will fix this issue for free. this is wrong and not a good way to conduct business if gm is expecting those same people to purchase another vehicle for them as they obviously do not stand behind their product. a cracked dash is not a wear and tear issue and simply should not happen. it shows the vehicle was made with the cheapest of products. it is also something that could potentially be a safety hazard as the dash sits over air bags, so if an accident shall occur and the air bags deploy could cause more harm to the drivers. i am appalled that no one will fix this issue since it has happened multiple times. i am very upset at the customer service by dealerships and gm altogether.
The dash is cracked above the drivers instrument panel and looks as if it is separating along the seam down to the passenger airbag. there is also a crack at the passenger side airbag. very concerned about unnecessary airbag deployment. i am uncertain of the exact date so i put when i noticed it in the date line.

Takata recall: on 11/14/2017 i learned that i can not sell or trade my 2098 chevy tahoe due to this recall. furthermore gm district manager told me there is no fix and i will be stuck with my vehicle until a solution is found. therefor i will loose money on the value of my vehicle. i would also like to bring to your attention that gm has faulty dashboards that crack, especially in 2008 chevy tahoe. gm has acknowledged this flaw but it's not a recall because no one has been injured or killed yet due to the defective dashboards. i found online a news reporter named andy wise who invested this case and has all proofs as he can not report a news investigation without attorney review. he was able to get his client a free dashboard replaced. i went to my local dealership and played the video for the a service manager and he contacted the district manager. gm alreadyvhas an open car claim for my vehicle. i received a phone call from the district service manager tonight who claims he is giving me a gift by paying for 50% of the repair cost. i shouldn't have to pay a dime. you should have many reports on file about crack gm or chevy dashboards. it was tonight i learned i can't even do a thing u til mybairbag recall is resolved and until that time i am stuck with a vehicle losing depreciation value every day. please investigate and help us all out.

We bought a 2008 chevy tahoe & the dash is cracked near the airbag like many others & a brand new crack has happened above the cluster area. we also purchased the warranty when we bought it but gm will not cover it.
Shortly after my 2008 warranty expired i noticed that the interior dashboard began cracking in various places and i called my dealership where i purchased the vehicle but they couldn't do anything. i have had to replace many of the parts in this vehicle several times and they are not cheap parts. after my last part episode, i decided to look up a common theme online; only to discover there are many other customers that have the same issues that i am having. however, the cracked dashboard is more serious because it houses the defected takata airbag that is supposed to be replaced. however, no one has contacted me on replacing that issue either. the dash board first cracked in july 2011 and another cracked occurred in july 2017. i use a dash cover to protect my vehicle from heat; however, nothing seem to stop the dash from cracking and the interior parts from falling a part.
Cracks can grow and turn into large holes that exposing the mechanical and electronic parts underneath.
Dashboard cracked above instrument panel. vehicle was in motion on a neighborhood street. heard popping noise that startled me while driving. upon inspection discovered new crack in dash which was not cracked prior. we do not use cleaning solutions in our tahoe due to our daughter having respiratory issues. we only wipe with cloths. this could not have been caused by cleaning solutions due to that.

I noticed that on my tahoe my dashboard started cracking on both sides. so i did a little research and it was happening with many other tahoe silverado and gm cars where the dash started cracking. i don't find it fair that we all have the same problem and that gm doesn't pay for it because it clearly shows that it's the product they put in our cars were cheap quality to where all of us buyers have the same problem and have to pay for it. therefore i feel that they should have a recall and take care of what they messed up with also it is a hazard because anything on your car that isn't met to the basic standards may be entitled to a law suit so i think we need a recall and thats all i have to say becuase i don't feel safe driving my car with cracked parts that can fly into anyones eye with the window open. that is all i have to say s just please give us the recall and make us consumers happy it would be much appreciated.

I already have a potential air bag recall #49152 that has not been resolved. additionally, i have had a cracked dashboard that cost 1,500.00 to repair, which i can't afford. my power folding mirrors have stopped working numerous times and now can not be fixed under warranty anymore. my radio had to be completely replaced. my vehicle has 29,550, and is a piece of junk. the roof is rusting out. g.m. went bankrupt in 2008, which stopped the lease process. i got stuck with this vehicle and have been fearful of driving it. the low mileage reflects it. when will you as a government agency intercede and tell gm to make good on there defective products. no one cares, except the people that get rich selling these garbage vehicles!!! what are you waiting for someone to get a piece of cracked dashboard in there eye or worse, die in an accident caused by plastic flying into the drivers face. there are tons of complaints!!! just google it and watch the different news channels coverage of this massive defect. total disrespect of the customers/owners on from general motors. maybe next time they shouldn't get a government bailout, from my6 hard earned tax dollars!!!!

Mutable cracks in dashboard. this is a well know issue with 07 to 11 gm's. there was no abuse or reason for the cracks. the cracks are causing sharp edges and points that are directly in front of the driver and passenger. as well as exposing internal equipment that could lead to failure including air bags.
A crack has developed on the dashboard behind the instrument cluster. the dashboard was completely replaced under warranty by the dealer (bryan chevrolet, metairie, la) in 2010. this is a widely common problem with all gm trucks and suv in this "class". this is a defect and should be considered for recall due to possible injury due in the event of a crash.
I have the same problem with the cracked dashboard as hundreds of other people and the more serious concern is that my brakes go out when i am stopping sometimes causing my car to jolt forward and it sometimes does the same with the gas when i am starting to drive, where it will stall and jolt forward. the dealership has "fixed" the problem two or three times replacing first the hybrid battery and then the regular battery. neither truly fix it. a couple of days ago, i came within inches of hitting another car because my brakes went out again. i know it has something to do with being a hybrid because there are hundreds of others with the same vehicle who have had the same problem.

All six side airbags on our 2008 chevrolet tahoe deployed while my wife was driving the vehicle with our two children in their rear car seats. there was no impact, bump, pot-hole or any other reason apparent to us why the airbags deployed. it was completely random. no one was injured and my wife maintained control of the vehicle to a safe stop, but she was stunned and disoriented. the damage to our vehicle is extensive. in addition to replacing six airbags, light fixtures, plastic molding, the roof panel and fabric/liner are all damaged. at this point, the dealer is not helping at all. we have contacted gm but they have not responded after 2 days. we believe this is not only a product liability issue that gm should repair, but also a major safety issue. we are all very fortunate that this did not result in a single or multi-vehicle accident, injuries related to the accident, or injuries related to the airbag deployment. we need help to ensure gm addresses this issue proactively, before someone is seriously injured or killed.
