Service Brakes problem #2

I purchased my 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe in April of 2019 with 4 miles on the dashboard. My vehicle is currently in the shop where I purchased the vehicle. It’s been there going on 3 weeks now. I was driving and my vehicle started losing power. I’m traveling on the highway at the time and my vehicle engine light came on as well and I couldn’t go over 30 without the vehicle losing power. I pulled over just in time before it shut down almost causing an accident . I have been servicing this vehicle 4 months after purchasing it. I’ve had better at a buy here pay here lot. And now I’m without a vehicle due to the liner needs replacing. I was told they had to drop the entire motor to do so. My vehicle has 80,000 + now and I definitely shouldn’t be replacing this component. There are other things going on as well but I’m unaware of the name. Also I purchased every warranty there was to buy when I purchased this vehicle and the dealership failed to acknowledge any one of them. So lucky I had another warranty company to bag me up and they are the ones paying this 4to 5,000 dollars repair. I’ve also had to service the trailer brake system several times. . Never used it since I’ve had the vehicle. . Until I asked them to just disconnect it because it wouldn’t stop. Also 4 months of having the very. . The custom rims ( back passenger side) broke from the inside almost causing me to go into ongoing traffic on the opposite side of the road. . And nearly flip. Meanwhile all this is coming out of my pocket to fix. . Except for this engine repair. . But I do pay the deductible. Many is telling me to get an attorney. But I reached out 1st since I seen where there is a recall but it’s not saying my year of vehicle. Please help. Also. I’m still receiving my oil changes from the dealership. And I get them on a regular. Note: the shop that has my vehicle is not the one listed on the document. But this is what the diagnostic read. And this is what’s being done to my vehicle.

Service Brakes problem #5

While driving on the freeway truck had lost all power and steering and braking capacity. The screen on dash went completely black with no warning signs. Vehicle could not accelerate and or brake other than drift in lane. Vehicle was without power for a brief time until power came back was able to not crash vehicle as this happened at a high rate on speed on busy freeway. When power did engage back on the dash lights now were full brightness and no control to dim it down could have been sign of definitely electrical issues. This had occurred several times since it had this major problem! I then urgently took my vehicle to specific chevy dealership for service and was refused service at dealership for the major electronic black out. I had no other choice but I then had contact chevy customer service line to bring them this major problem four months ago. To this current day I still haven’t had any support or assistance in addressing this major problem with my vehicle! chevy support or lack there of has only delayed addressing my to get serviced to see what’s causing this problems!.
