Two problems related to front air bag sensor control have been reported for the 2009 Chevrolet Tahoe. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2009 Chevrolet Tahoe based on all problems reported for the 2009 Tahoe.
The dash on the vehicle has cracked at the passenger air bag cover. Also cracked above the speedometer. Concern is there may be humidity ingress to the airbag, the electronics or sub assemblies increasing the risk for an airbag deployment anomaly. Another concern is plastic or metal from the dash could also impact the airbag (deflation) or present injury to the occupants (flying parts). A lesser concern is the sensors for the automated ac/heating systems in the car. Believing they are calibrated with sealed intact components. The larger split at the speedometer has only recently happened which makes this a concern that there are larger more underpinning issues not fully realized.
Sensor for air bag is on at all times while the vehicle is turned on.
