general problems of the 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe

The air ride control module under the spare tire in the rear of the vehicle has deteriorated and the connections melted so I had to disconnect the module I noticed smoke from underneath the rear of my vehicle I believe if I did not disconnect the module there would have been a fire I have the module that I can send pictures to you of the plug the connection and the deteriorating module these vehicles are supposed to be made to be used in the upstate weather and to leave a important piece of electrical equipment out like that is nonsense and to replace the module is approximately 500 without me going to the dealership.

Complain to dealer prior to gm warranty expiration and extended warranty expiration but now that warranty expired willing to investigate. Constant p0300 random misfire detected on cylinder 5. Misfires over 20 times within 60 seconds via gm fast test (launch software version v44. 30) happen at idle or in motion leveling / suspension / stability system constantly alert during motion. Also have crack on dash that leads to passenger airbag. If remote start is used loud grinding can be herd after idle for approximately 8 minutes or sooner.

The truck was having dry start ups winter or summer. . Could hear the lifters tapping really hard until oil hits it,,lifters collasped on right side now the left is doing the same and warranty wont fix. . Also the leveling pump keeps going out and this it rhe second one in two years that had to be replaced. . Also the driver mirror will not role in so when I park noone wont hit it. . Also dash is craxk over the passenger side and driver side air bags. . Also the transmission is slipping into second gear and it rumbles inside when it drops to 4 cylinder. .

Hi I purchase 2008 chevy Tahoe brand new. How I called last year to gm support as for this my door lock problem. They told me we will take care of this just take it to nearest dealer which was 220 miles away from where I live. ( and I was told they will take care of it. ) support dept got me an appointment set everything up. I drove in to dealership they look at all my complains. And got me quote for all the repair needs to be perform. Door lock problem is a know issue to gm I am not the only one who's affected. But dealership told us. That gm would not pay for repair. How would you feel drive 220 miles and get quote in your okay it's going to be $480 per door to fixed. My question if was not going to take care of this repair why would send me to dealership to have fixed. That trip cost me over 300 bucks not to mention all of the frustration involved. Wasted my 1 1/2 days. I have been watching people complaining on edmunds and gm is answering emails. But none of them is getting any help, if gm is not going to stand behind of their product why would respond to emails. This is not done. I happened 2 months after warranty was expired. I bought my truck when gm was in trouble. I don't think that these giant company's care. That does tells me one thing stay away from gm. I would own another gm product in future or ever and pass on this to others. One thing I would like point is that. This door lock problem gm should look into little too closely. This is safety issue. It should recalled and have it fixed immediately without any further delays. Thanks.

The vehicle exhibits accelerated side to side movements in side winds and when following high profile vehicles. The side to side movement is extreme enough to cause mild discomfort from the safety belts and will cause the vehicle operator to be come disoriented. Inclement weather makes the problem intolerable.
