1 Power Window problem

Failure Date: 01/21/2005

While lowering driver's power window a snap occured and the window fell to the bottom. I contacted my local repair center. They informed me that it was a dealer only item. That the entire regulator assembly would have to be replaced. I spoke to the dealership and they informed me they had gone through hundreds! I veiwed the broken item and the steel cable seemed to be a design flaw, allowing water to settle at cable entrance. Why replace the entire regulator $235. 91?.

2 Power Window problem

Failure Date: 08/16/2004

Rear windows intermittently would not work and then both failed at the same time. N eeded to replace both motors and regulators. Cost of repair exceeded $425. 00. Apparently there is a service bulletin on this and a known defect like this should be covered by the manufacturer.

3 Power Window problem

Failure Date: 03/18/2004

While the van was parked in the driveway with the engine running toddler poked head out of the rear passenger side window, and put hand on the door arm rest, where the power window controller switch was located. The window started going up, toddler paniced and pushed down harder on the controller switch, and window continued going up and chocked the toddler. Consumer felt that a child proof device should be installed in all of the windows to prevent such incident from occurring.

4 Power Window problem

Failure Date: 08/19/2003

All of the windows except the driver's window would not roll up or down. Vehicle was taken to the dealer, who informed the consumer that the power window motor needed to be replaced.

5 Power Window problem

Failure Date: 02/24/2003

The two rear power windows on my 2000 chevy Tahoe developed internal intermittent shorts at the exact same time. I have also experienced trouble with the two front power windows not working at times. The dealership stated they have seen prior problems with the power windows in the Tahoe's. My vehicle only had 23751 miles on it at the time the back window motors were replaced. I was charged over $400. 00 for these repairs. It seems to me the problem with the motors is a factory defect and I shouldn't be held liable for the expense of replacement.

6 Power Window problem

Failure Date: 11/03/2002

Neither one of the electric passenger windows will work. One will work at times and then at other times it will not. The window will not go down or up. This could purpose a problem especially with people with small children. You would have to break a glass to get in the passenger windows if needed. Chevrolet should fix this problem as it is a recurring problem in the Tahoe. I would be glad to know they are willing to fix this problem.

7 Power Window problem

Failure Date: 08/15/2000

Left rear passenger windows intermittently would not operate properly. Dealer was not notified at this time. Please feel free to provide any further details.
