2007 tahoe. Intermediate steering shaft clunk noise. This noise is a nuisance and doesn't feel safe when driving the vehicle. The problem happens intermediately so it is very difficult to diagnose. Gm needs to recall this problem and replace the shaft instead of doing temporary grease jobs. *tr

I was at a stop light, and the problem happened unexpectedly when i pressed on the gas when the light turned green. My car moved forward just slightly, jerked hard to a complete stop, and it wouldn't drive anymore. I was able to get pushed to the side in neutral, but needed a tow to the dealer. The only working gears were r, 3, 2, and 1. Bringing it into the dealer, they confirmed there was a problem with the…

On my new chevy tahoe, 2007, the transmission has slipped several times (50+) over the last 20,000 miles. Each occurrence was minor and when mentioned to the dealer at normal service intervals was told was common for a truck (i.e. They are stiff when cold, can do that when you go around a corner, etc.) this finally culminated with complete transmission failure while in traffic. The repair offered by chevy is to just…

My 2007 tahoe has had a transmission/slip/bumping problem and it was first noticed by me about a month after i got it back in april. It has gotten worse the more that i drive it. It has 5900 miles on it and has been to the shop once for the problem. It was not taken care of and now it has been brought to my attention that this is actually a common problem and that it has been made aware of years ago in the older…

Under normal, non-towing driving, the 2007 tahoe (with 27,000 miles) would not go forward when placed into drive. As a result, my family is presently unable to use the vehicle and it was towed to a dealership for repairs. This occurred after the transmission was completely replaced at about 12,000 miles for the same problem. *nm

I replaced the transmission in my chevy tahoe twice. It is clear that other owners have had the same problems with tahoe transmissions over the past ten years. What does it take for gm to correct the problem??? Maybe this site can at least help get the word out about these transmissions. *tr
