ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2015-2020 Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Yukon, and 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles equipped with a 5.3-liter engine, a 3.08-ratio rear axle and four-wheel drive. If a wheel-speed sensor fails, while the vehicle is traveling between 41 and 60 mph in four-wheel or automatic mode, the Electronic-Brake Control Module (EBCM) software may activate the driveline-protection system.
Risk: Unintended activation of the driveline-protection system will cause unintended braking on the wheel on the opposite side of the failed sensor, causing the vehicle to pull to one side unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash.

While driving on the expressway I heard a rattling noise coming from my undercarriage, by the time I got off my exit the sound got louder, I attempted to make it home and when I pulled in my driveway, and popped the hood, fluid starting pouring out the bottom as well as splashed on other components.

I had the vehicle towed to an auto repair shop and the following was diagnosed and repaired: •Water pump •Cooling System •Engine Water pump •Engine Coolant thermostat housing assembly. •Serpentine Belt

The contact owned a 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact stated that while driving on a winding road during a rainstorm at 15 MPH, she briefly lost control of the vehicle and left the roadway, coming to a complete stop after colliding with a tree. The impact of the collision was severe that the front passenger side wheel became detached. The air bags did not deploy. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, who had yet to determine why the air bags did not deploy, however, the contact was informed that the vehicle may be deemed a total loss by her insurance provider. A police report was not filed, but minor injuries were reported, which the contact attributed to the fact that the air bags did not deploy. The contact sustained a small bruise on her chin and a contusion across her chest, but did not seek medical treatment immediately following the accident. Surprisingly enough, the chest contusion had yet to heal 2 weeks after the injury was sustained. Alarmed, the contact consulted her primary care physician, who then scheduled an X-ray for a later date. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

On 10/23/24 the vehicle's 6.2 L L87 engine seized while driving on a state highway (similar to the later models already under recall) putting myself and other drivers at risk through a sudden loss of power and speed. The component was inspected at a GM dealership and then replaced AT MY COST. The replacing mechanic said the failure was in the rod bearings (the same as in the recalled engines). There were no warnings or related problems prior to the sudden failure. The existing recall ( Investigation:PE25001) needs to be expanded to these earlier model (2019 and 2020) engines that have the exact same issue.

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.

Purchased a used (128k miles) 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe LT. First month of driving (not for everyday use) noticed some strange transmission and engine hesitations when reversing. Notified the dealership and was told the transmission needed reprogramming. They reprogrammed and the problem though less noticeable, still persisted. Contacted the local and the purchased dealership to let them know of the persistent issues. Purchase dealership had me bring the vehicle back where I was told the vehicle needed a new transmission. Vehicle had less than 600 miles since my purchase. I was told it was $10k and I was liable due to the expiration of the limited warranty. Let them know these issues were identified and not fixed during the warranty period. Dealers fixed the vehicle but still charged me almost $4k. With the new transmission in place, I still noticed an engine hesitation, as if it was missing. Had new plugs installed but still no luck. Was told that cylinder deactivation may have caused lifter issues. Took it to my local dealer and thought the issue was obvious, they said they couldn’t find the issue. I was charged $300 for a non diagnosis or fix. The issue still persist
