Chrome is separating from the left front inside door handle. As a result, the chrome is jagged and i have cut my hand numerous time. I heard that this was a common problem with this model. 2007 chevrolet tahoe lt. *tr

I just purchased a used 2007 chevy tahoe and i have cut my fingers on both door handles. It seems that they used cheap chrome plated handles and it is pealing. It is razor sharp. I am just glad neither my wife or kids got cut. Please research this and see if there are others. Dealer will not replace because the vehicle has over 36,000 miles. This should be fixed! Thanks *tr

I owe a 2007 chevrolet tahoe. I noticed in july of this year that there is a 2-3 inch crack on the top left corner of the dash on the passenger's side--right on top of where the air bag is! I took the vehicle to the dealer and they said "since it's not a safety issue" general motors said they will not replace the dash! How do they freaking know it's not a safety issue when it's on top of the air bag??? And now…

The chrome "paint" on the interior door handles has flaked off and when you open or shut the door from the inside, it gives you a "paper cut." it has cut my fingers several times, you don't even think about the actions of opening or shutting the door before you do it because it is second nature so it is hard to do something to prevent it. *tr

I have had the dash crack in 4 different places; two on the driver side on each side of the steering column and two other around the airbag. The two around the airbag have made it so that there is free piece of plastic that is not secured by anything. I am afraid that if the air bag was to deploy then this piece would cause great bodily harm to anyone in the vehicle. The manufacturer knows of this issue and is not…

I currently own a 2007 chevy tahoe. The chrome on the passenger door handle is peeling. I have cut myself several times when attempting to open or close the door. Short term solution was to put tape on the handle or a band aid. I already have 6 cuts (just like paper cuts) it happens frequently. Please investigate. *tr

The dash has two cracks around the airbag housing and three other cracks (2 over 5" long). Concern is mainly at airbag location as i am not sure if this affects the stability of the airbag, if the airbag will perform properly in a collision, or if the plastic pieces will become projectiles in the event of airbag deployment. *tr

Dash is cracked on the drivers side starting from close the windshield towards the instrument panel. Another crack on the passenger side starting from close to the windshield and continues on to where the airbag deploys. Also peeled chrome on the inside of the driver and passenger side doors revealing sharp edges. I though these issue were a fluke. But, i am finding this is a recurring issue among many owners. *tr

The dash has major cracking around the airbag and on top of the dash in the area of the steering wheel. The first incident occurred in april 2010, had the dash replaced under warranty approximately sept/oct 2010. The second incident occurred in august 2012. Same cracks in dash around airbag. I can't help but wonder if these cracks compromise the airbag in any way. Or if the vehicle is involved in a collision will…

I am the owner of a 2007 chevy tahoe. A few months ago i notice a crack in several places on my dashboard. The most visible crack was located next to the passenger airbag. I am afraid that because this crack is next to the airbag it may possible cause the airbag to deploy and cause serious injuries to a passenger or cause me to be involved in an accident. *tr

Cracked dashboard in 2007 chevrolet tahoe. Large crack in corner to the left of the "hump" where speedometer, etc is located. Smaller crack in the corner where the passenger airbag panel sits. Contacted gm to report defect and they opted not to acknowledge this was a problem. Concern is whether this defect will cause airbag to become unstable. Will it deploy unexpectedly because the surrounding panel is compromised?…

I own a 2007 tahoe lt. The dash is crack above the speedometer and by the passenger air bag. My interior door latches are also peeling and are sharp enough to slice a finger. These problems seem to be pretty common and should be taken care of by gm. You wonder why customers decide to buy imports. Customer service is a big part of repeat business. *tr

There is a crack at the passenger side airbag that appears to be unsafe in head on collision. If you reference chevrolet forums-tahoe website you will see 45 pages of failures and gm is very selective on whom they will replace or deny. *tr

In our 2007 chevrolet tahoe the dash is cracked just above the passenger side airbag which could cause serious injury in a crash. The interior wiring must be faulty, the passenger window sometimes won't roll down from drivers side, but sometimes it will. Also our battery mounts different than what is called for in automotive centers (top mount , not side) making it difficult to order proper battery for this vehicle.…
