On March 21, 2026, I rented a Chevrolet Tahoe (approx. 24,450 mileage driven). While operating the vehicle on a freeway at approximately 40–50 mph, the braking system and ABS failed suddenly without any warning. Barely no brakes were able to apply to stop the vehicle. It also started to show that ECS service (Electronic Stability Control) and Service Brake Pad Monitor. Many faults started to sho...

I have a 2025 Chevy Tahoe and the automatic braking system is way too sensitive. When I’m reversing, it constantly slams on the brakes even when I still have enough space and nothing is in my way. It also brakes when people are nearby but not actually in my path. One time I was stopped and about to move forward, and the car suddenly braked because a construction worker was a few feet away, not in ...

Pulled into a pharmacy, vehicle died and completely shut off while driving. 3400 miles, towed to dealership, March 5, 2026. Still no answer from dealership for why this happened and no loaner vehicle yet because they cannot confirm it's a warranty issue

While driving on the highway, the vehicle suddenly downshifted and shut down and would not restart. All lights appeared on the cluster and showed "conditions not correct for shift". Had to have vehicle towed from the side of the road and wasn't even able to shift into neutral.

I was driving when I noticed my vehicle lagging and possibly misfiring, and then the "Service Four-Wheel-Drive" warning appeared. I was just down the road from my house, so I pulled into the driveway and put the car in park, but it wouldn’t turn off. I realized the parking brake was engaged and wouldn’t release either. I was stuck in two-wheel drive and couldn’t switch to four-wheel drive, and the...

While I was driving, my vehicle suddenly lost all power I encountered a misfire with the engine light flashing, and diagnostic codes P0353 and P0300 indicated a misfire on cylinder three. The coil pack and spark plugs for that cylinder were replaced, yet issues persist and problems continue. There is a strange popping and cracking noise coming from my dash. My brakes are also making it loud sound...

*Total Engine Destruction from Thrust Bearing Failure (GM Bulletin 25-NA-307) * Yes, failure has been confirmed at Chevy Dealership (Davis Chevrolet Gainesville FL) * Yes, problem has been reproduced at dealership *Only the dealer service department has confirmed failure *No warning lights, thrust bearing failed sending shrapnel into the bell housing torque converter just loud metal clanging noise...

Dealer grounded vehicle for excessive crankshaft play due to thrust bearing failure. Been without vehicle since 1-20-2026 and although I have received 2 text from service manager I have not been told when I will get vehicle back. Mileage was at 4,820. Vehicle build date 7/25

Complete engine failure.

My 2025 Chevrolet Tahoe Z71 3.0L LZO Duramax with approx. 3,380 miles experienced a sudden and complete engine failure while towing my camper on the interstate at night, in the rain, while traveling alone 375 miles from home. The vehicle lost power, displayed warnings, and became inoperable, forcing me onto the shoulder in unsafe conditions. The engine has been diagnosed as requiring full replacem...

2025 Chevy Tahoe: While approaching a traffic stop I hit the brake pedal and this would not work nor stopped the car. The pedal went all the way to the floor and would not work anymore. I believe the Emergency Brake activated and managed to stop the car. i was driving at The Check Engine warning light was immediately activated along with the following warnings: *Service Brake Assist *Check trai...

I was driving up to a border check point and slowed down at the guard shack. Once cleared I released the brake and tried to accelerate. The vehicle shut down completely. I tried to restart it and the check transmission warning came on. The vehicle would not restart. I was blocking the lane at the border check. After a few minutes I was able to start the vehicle and limp over to the shoulder of the...

When backing up the auto braking brakes very hard sudden stop without warning even though no objects near by. Appears to be from shadows and made worse when it is raining and the camera has water on the lense. I turned off the backup auto braking and it still does it. It brakes hard enough that it pinched a nerve in my neck causing sudden pain which chipped a tooth

After my vehicle experienced a brake system failure 3 weeks ago and I got my vehicle back from the dealership. I noticed that my vehicle has no emergency brake so in the event of this failure and/or future brake system failures there was no way to stop my vehicle. Their emergency brake is technically a parking brake that can only be applied when the vehicle is completely stopped. I'm not sure how ...

Brake system failure. Brakes were all but gone as I couldn't safely stop my car at an intersection and had to quickly cut in front of on coming traffic to go into a gas station to avoid running a red light.

I am reporting a critical safety design defect in my 2025 Chevrolet Tahoe Z71 (VIN: [XXX] ), involving the Brake Pedal Assembly geometry. Bought vehicle in January this year and within a few days of driving I noticed my foot repeatedly catching or hanging up on the brake pedal when moving from the accelerator to brake, which severely delays braking application (regardless of my footwear). This mo...

Driving along the highway in cruise control at about 70mph without any trailer being pulled. Suddenly I got brake errors. ABS, ESC, Trailer brake error failures all popped on the dash warnings. Brakes were unresponsive only applying hard pressure to the brake pedal was effective. There was zero feedback from the brake pedal to myself on it engaging and braking effectively. If this happened in a si...

The vehicle is making a loud ticking noise which leads me to suspect this car has similar, if not the same issue as the 21-24 recalled L87 6.2 engines. I took it in the first time, they couldn’t reproduce the noise but I already have video documented footage over a few days with the sound of knocking/ticking from the motor. After they did an early oil change at the same mileage I brought the veh...

4/24 The check engine light was flashing and the car went into limp mode and the display noted to pull over for safety. On 4/25 We took the car to the dealer they did some reprogramming. On 4/26 the vehicle keeps loosing power when driving.. Scheduled another appointment on 4/28 to have vehicle looked at.

Bought the 2025 Chevy Tahoe, had about 680 miles on it. 400 of which were from the dealership. Had the pleasure of driving it for a week. Check engine light came on and was told that the transmission valve body had gone bad. The issue regarding that particular transmission has existed since 2019. However the part needed is allegedly on back order, and GM has no idea when they will get that part in...
