Automatic Transmission problems of the 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe

2007 Chevrolet Tahoe. Intermediate steering shaft clunk noise. This noise is a nuisance and doesn't feel safe when driving the vehicle. The problem happens intermediately so it is very difficult to diagnose. Gm needs to recall this problem and replace the shaft instead of doing temporary grease jobs.

I purchased a 2007 Tahoe in Feb. Of 2007. I have had numerous problems to date. The first was the a/c blower went out. Replaced under warranty. The tire pressure monitor was reversed on the two right side tires. Right front was actually the right rear. I have complained to the dealership numerous times about the poor mileage I am getting. 15. 1 mpg overall. 60% + of my driving is on the highway. My 2003 Tahoe got much better mileage without the so-called "active fuel management system". Then at 27,758 miles, the transmission crapped out while pulling into traffic on a busy road. I like the appearance and features of the Tahoe, but in my opinion, this vehicle is a disaster mechanically. I have bought nothing but gm products for the last 20 years but will now reconsider.

The transmission went out on my 2007 Tahoe ltz with 18,500 miles. I coasted to the side of the road. Tahoe would not move in "d", but would in other gears. In "3" I headed to my dealer (about 15 miles away). "3" went out when I had to slow for a light. I then drove in "2" to the dealer. I was told this was the first problem like this they had seen in a 2007. After inspection, I was give technical names of the transmission parts that had torn up inside. I received the Tahoe back in 1 week and was provided a free rental car by Chevrolet. I have nothing but the highest praise for my dealer, but am extremely disappointed in such a major problem in a new vehicle. I am supposed to receive a full copy of all work done for this repair.

1 month after purchase of my 2007 chevy Tahoe the service engine light came on. I alerted onstar as I was stranded on the road. Onstar indicated through a probe check that my transmission had malfunctioned but the problem would correct itself and the light would go off and I could keep driving the truck. The light went off and I kept driving. Some time later onstar was alerted for the same problems, I was told the same as before by onstar. About 1 year after I bought this Tahoe I was stranded again around 10:30p. M. Along side an unsafe highway with my 3 children. Onstar was called and again stated a transmission error that would correct itself and after driving the light should go off. I drove this Tahoe home having to pull off the road several times to allow my transmission temperature to cool to prevent further damage. The next morning the light had gone off and I was on my way to take the Tahoe to the dealership where it was purchased. 5 miles or so from my home the light comes back on and I alert onstar and was told that I needed to drive the truck to my nearest Chevrolet dealership. As I pulled back on the road the transmission stops working immediately as I am sitting in on-comming traffic. I quickly put the truck in reverse as drive will not work any longer to get myself out of harms way. Chevrolet was called and transported my truck to their dealership as this was where it was purchased. My truck stayed in the shop three days as they had to rebuild the transmission. I had to pay for a rental with my own money. After picking my truck up from being repaired I was once again stranded along I-95 with my children 2 hours later. As of today my truck is still waiting to be hauled into Chevrolet.

My 2007 Tahoe has had a transmission/slip/bumping problem and it was first noticed by me about a month after I got it back in April. It has gotten worse the more that I drive it. It has 5900 miles on it and has been to the shop once for the problem. It was not taken care of and now it has been brought to my attention that this is actually a common problem and that it has been made aware of years ago in the older versions. I'm not at all happy about this.

Under normal, non-towing driving, the 2007 Tahoe (with 27,000 miles) would not go forward when placed into drive. As a result, my family is presently unable to use the vehicle and it was towed to a dealership for repairs. This occurred after the transmission was completely replaced at about 12,000 miles for the same problem.

Transmission drive gears went out would move only in reverse.

I replaced the transmission in my chevy Tahoe twice. It is clear that other owners have had the same problems with Tahoe transmissions over the past ten years. What does it take for gm to correct the problem??? maybe this site can at least help get the word out about these transmissions.
