Brakes randomly started not working. A lot of resistance, unable to stop, unable to push brake to floor. Finally got somewhere and parked after avoiding three accidents, vehicle had to be towed. Brake booster is bad. This seems to be a common problem with the 2015 tahoe. Why hasn't this been a recall????

After coming to a stop or slowing down and accelerating again, the vehicle can't catch its gear and basically goes into neutral. The rpms rev way up, you can push the pedal to the floor and it still won't go until it finally finds a gear. We've owned this vehicle 2 weeks and it has happened multiple times every time we drive it. We nearly got rear ended on the interstate after trying to accelerate after slowing down…

The new 2015 tahoes have a push button ignition. I pushed off the ignition with the car in drive (forgot to put in park), exited the vehicle and realized the car was rolling down the hill. I quickly jumped in and applied the brakes to stop the car. I was surprised that even though the car is in drive when the car's ignition is turned off, the transmission disengages and the car is in neutral! This is a big hazard.…
