I live in a fairly arid climate, where rain doesn't occur frequently. A couple of months ago, after my tahoe had been sitting in the rain, i noticed water dripping from the inside door pillar when i opened the door. I just assumed it was water than came in from the outside when i opened the door. Then about nine days ago, while driving in the rain, water began dripping from the top center console area, in a steady…

The exterior side panel that separate front and back of tahoe threatens to fly off during driving. It's primarily on highway driving from 50+ miles per hour. It's as if wind is getting under them and its always a concern they are going to fly off. We often are stopping and hitting it back in place. If it come off it will be a $130-180 piece each side and cosmetically ugly for our vehicle and a danger to other motor…

I had some tape in the vehicle so i pulled to the side, taped it down, and continued driving. I took the vehicle into the chevrolet dealer the next day and they said it is a common problem with the…

The liftgate malfunction is both bizarre and dangerous. When opened it proceeds to drop about a foot quickly, enough to create serious head contact. It then proceeds to close without use of sensors, repeatedly pinning the operator against the back of the car. Only with strength and agility did my wife manage to slide out the side. We are thankful that the only damage was a bruise on her leg. It could have been much…

When the vehicle was pulled to a curb, the plastic wind deflector was placed too low (approximately eight inches from the pavement), making it difficult to pull away from the curb without pulling out the front fender.
