1 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 08/27/2020

Wow. I am seeing all my same issues so thought I better enter my info as well. First the horn was all of a sudden blaring without anyone being in it in the middle of the night 2. 5 years ago and now I do not have a horn, and none of the controls work on the steering wheel including the radio and cruise control (I question if the air bag is active on the driver side because of this). Then, the rear lift gate all of a sudden will not open (maybe last winter). 6 months ago, the indicators on the dash are out so I can't see my odometer or anything else you can access on the dash. Recently the passenger side window just randomly fell off the track. Recently, everything on the driver's side door does not work electrically: power door lock, and power window. And I find that gm will not address at a minimum the electrical issues? not good.

7 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 10/24/2017

Takata recall - my Tahoe has been under recall for over a year now and my service airbag light is on in the dash. I have contacted dublin Chevrolet for the repairs and they keep telling me that the parts are not available. I have afraid that if I do have an accident that the air bags may not work or may even go off with no accident occurring. I feel this could be life threatening and want this to be corrected immediately as I have no intention of selling my Tahoe in the near future. I have grandchildren that ride with me ( all of whom are over age 12) and I fear for their safety as well. I am not happy at all with the way that Chevrolet, general motors, or my local dealership is handling this situation. I have had the recall notice since July of 2016 and the air bag light has been on since before then. My dash has also cracked and broken in several places next to where the passenger air bag is located in the dash and I think this may be connected to the air bag situation.

18 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 05/07/2015

Takata recall- the service airbag indicator light has been on in my 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe since 2015. Since then I have tried numerous times to contact my local Chevrolet dealer (momentum Chevrolet in san jose CA) to resolve the safety issue. Not only did they failed to come up with a resolution to the safety of my family vehicle they took my personal information to call me back and try to sell me a new car, disregarding my initial complaint about the safety of my chevy Tahoe.

19 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 01/15/2014

At 90,000 miles, all of my rear bearings were bad and had to have them replaced, basically a whole new rear end. Luckily it was covered under the 100,000 mile power train warranty. I have only towed a trailer twice with my Tahoe, so obviously a defect somewhere. Second issue is that there are 2 cracks on the dashboard; one in the area of the passenger side air bag, and the other on the backside of the drivers side steering column. These both occurred about the same time, around 100,000 miles. Obviously this is a widespread issue. Gm needs to be replacing these dashboards on their dime and not expecting the customer to foot the bill for this defective product. It is definitely a safety issue. Should the airbag system have to deploy, pieces of plastic would become projectiles that would harm anyone inside the vehicle. The third issue I have, that began today at 109,000 miles, are involving the instrument panel. The speedometer did not work, the light that indicates which gear you are in did not come on, and the seat belt light and air bag light were on even though I was wearing my seat belt. I'm not sure what is causing this, and I'm hoping it is just a bad fuse. I am so dicouraged with my Tahoe lately. All of these little things going wrong have really made me leary of buying another gm product, and I've been excited about the 2015 redesign. Not so much now.
