The gear shifting doesn’t seem to grab properly all the time. It will lurch into gear sometimes and sometime won’t engage in the gear indicated. The indicator lights dimmed and now don’t illuminate so you don’t know what gear you are in. It seems like this is a specific recall to my vehicle but when I enter my VIN it says my car is not affected. I hope this can be looked into and repaired under the recall.
Tamara recall lights shorting out (inside)they come on when they are not spouse to. Licence plate lights flicker. Moving and sitting still on both. Transmission problems (slipping) read multiple forms online and they say the transmissions are junk that makes alot of people not want them. I love my Tahoe and would love for the issues to be solved for me and everyone else.
Shift indicator does not illuminate. Called dealership in reference to the 05v055000 recall that I assumed was applicable to all Tahoes with the same problem. Service tech inicated that my VIN was not part of the recall. Seems that the recall should be expanded to include all of the same vehicles since the problem seems to affect the all.

I own a 2005 chevy Tahoe I bought new. Last year in 2012 the fuel lines coming out of the fuel pump rotted out and I had to replace the whole pump. Early this year (2013) the transmission lines rotted out and all had to be replaced, in September this year (2013) the brake lines rotted out and had to be replaced. Lucky for me I was just leaving my driveway. I am very disappointed with this gm vehicle. I don't know if I would ever buy a gm vehicle again.
Have had mystery coolant leak for some time and after months of losing antifreeze I find out that it is very likely that I have a cracked head due to poor casting. A problem that general motors is fully aware of. I think that the manufacturer should have issued a recall long ago to remedy this problem.
Truck shifts into 4 low and stability control shuts off for no apparent reason. Dangerous at the least. Heard of many cases of the same issue. Replaced switch ,still has issue.
