    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????

    I have 2015 chevy tahoe that needs a new ac condenser. I have read hundreds of complaints online regarding this issue and the defective part where the seals crack requiring replacement. On top of all that, its not covered under warranty and the part is back ordered until september/october 2017. So no ac in the summer time. Brilliant. This should be a recall. The part is failing with no fixable alternative. Please…
