1 Front Suspension problem of the 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe

Failure Date: 07/24/2006

I have a 2007 Tahoe. I have 5,700 miles on it and my tires are feathered and ruined. Took it back to the dealer, and they said to rotate to back and drive it another 5000 miles and see if the front tires do the same thing. I feel like there should have been more done, but they did nothing. I now would like to know my options. I fear for the safety of my family while driving in this vehicle. The dealership said this is the first reported case and they want us to be the guinea pigs and see what happens.

16 Front Suspension problem of the 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe

Failure Date: 02/01/1999

Ever since I purchased this auto I have been complaining about a front end problem. The auto dealer kept telling me it was nothing. Sensing it was a male/female problem I took my son in one day and they finally looked and said it was because I had "glazed brakes". The siutation did not improve after the so called fixed it. Shortly thereafter, I noticed something very funny about the tire on the front passenger side of my vehicle. I had already had the tires rotated so there would be not reason for excessive wear and bubbling on one tire only. I then took the auto a front end alignment shop. It was determined that the front end was out over 3/4" and could not be aligned without proper manufacturer adjustment of the holes. They refused. Chevy has acknowledged this problem by manufacturing the elongated hole on the 2000 model. Please be aware that neither chevy or my dealership would assist us. I was able to pay for this repair and have it done before I had a major front end blow out. Please, please make this information available to the public before we start reading about Tahoes as well as fords.

25 Front Suspension problem of the 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe

This veh. Has been in the shop 7 times and problem is the same. At high speeds the front end vibrates. When you go around a curve at certin speed and hit a bump you lose control of the vehicle. This has happened twice to me . One time I lost partial control into oncoming traffic at 75mph. They have blamed the tires (although they replaced them 5 times) they have realigned the front, balanced the tires endlessly and tried everything they could think of and accomplished nothing. This is truly a dangerous to have on the road and is going to kill someone one of these days.
