Cruise Control problems of the 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe

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.

The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 70 mph, the cruise control failed to operate. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 67,000.

2007 Chevrolet Tahoe. Consumer states several issues with vehicle and request information on recalls, service bulletins, warranties or lemon law the consumer stated the cruise control down shifted to 2nd while driving at highway speeds and on hills, the starter would hang, there was a noise coming from the ac compressor. The transmission was replaced. However, it continued to hesitate after the vehicle was started, as well as a vibration. There was a clicking noise coming from the differential, the idle needle would rise, while at a stop, the battery drained, the engine stalled, the dash was cracked, there was a problem with the suspension, the tire pressure monitoring system was repaired three times, the passenger side mirror was inoperable, the weather strip had come off the vehicle and there was a clicking noise coming from the u-joint.

While driving with cruise control enabled traveling at 70 mph with rpm at 2000 rpm, the 2007 Tahoe surged, jerked if you will, as if the cruise control was telling the vehicle it was going too slow. Hitting the brakes did not disengaged cruise control. Engine raced to 4000 rpm and locked at 4000 rpm! successfully shifted vehicle to neutral and was able to maneuver vehicle off the road and I can only hope the next person this happens to will be as lucky. Had to turn vehicle off to reduce engine rpm from the 4000 rpm it was locked on. Called on star and informed them of what happened and they ran a test which indicated no problem. Vehicle would not restart on first four attempts. Disabled cruise control button on steering wheel, which was glowing yellow, and the engine started. Gm customer service contacted, file 71-965035291 and gm refused to replace cruise control as the local dealer in san angelo TX indicated they could not duplicate the concern. If should be noted it was 104 degrees and the engine had been running for over an hour and 100 miles with the vehicle loaded with 5 people and luggage. The local dealer did not duplicate the exact conditions and instead did a test drive of 60 miles without the load or high temperature. Talked to sarah at 866 790 8601 ext 12869 and she passed me on to victoria, david, and then back to victoria. I am an equipment engineer and victoria did not appear to have any technical knowledge. Gm did not take my offer to remove my cruise control so they could bench test the unit and add heat to drive the faulty component to fail. Gm, specifically victoria, wants to wait until someone else has the same problem. I know this lack of action by chevy/gm seems hard to believe but the description I have provided is accurate.

My Chevrolet Tahoe, despite regular maintenance per schedule, loses on quart of oil every 2500 miles. There are no leaks, smoking exhaust etc. The dealership told me this is a well known problem of unknown origin. The electrical systems on the vehicle have been a nightmare. The ignition will at times fail to turn off despite removing the key. The cruise control will pop out of cruise mode for no reason and will often fail to reengage immediately. Lithia Chevrolet in redding refuses to discuss repair or replacement, stating it is not their problem. I also have a recalled takata airbag that lithia refuses to replace.

Driving vehicle on the 7th day of ownership with cruise control on. On a slight down grade vehicle accelerated 20 mph over set cruise speed before I shut cruise off. The next morning, the vehicle continued accelerating after I took my foot off the gas at a light causing vehicle to crash into another vehicle. Chevy dealer in henderson, nv handled very poorly. Nearly two months after crash, gm called me and stated that their 3rd party independent evaluation (done by a retired gm employee) of the vehicle and its computers doesn't show any failure or malfunction to verify my claim. Gm can say what they want. I know what happened and my wife and family witnessed the accident. Gm had no interest in talking to them. For their protection, I'll take a loss and trade the vehicle as soon as I get it back. Just wanted a public record of situation in case of any future similar incidents. Ironically, I was impressed by vehicle and quality the week I had it. The report gm sent me appeared to confirm what I said happen, but they said not.

The dashboard has two cracks one over the steering wheel and one over the passenger side air bag. I also have the light on and off saying (air bag service required) and the cruise control n has not been working neither for like 2 years all. It is a safety issue and concern when I travel with my family and this issue should be addressed immediately. Thank you eppi.
