2022 Chevrolet Tahoe

The dealership diagnosed the truck after investigating a ticking noise and engine misfire. During the inspection, they removed the valve cover and found that one of the pushrods on cylinder #5 was bent. Further disassembly revealed that both lifters on cylinder #5 had failed, causing excessive wear on the camshaft lobe. As a result, the dealership determined that the necessary repair was to replace the camshaft and all 16 lifters. The engine was then cleaned, reassembled, and tested to ensure proper operation. The root cause of the issue appears to have been a failing lifter, which led to damage of the associated valvetrain components.

Driving my vehicle on the interstate at 70mph when the transmission made a hard downshift and brought my wife, two children, an infant and toddler, and I to a very sudden 40mph.Before I was able to find a shoulder to pull over the transmission fluid overheated and vehicle would no longer change gears. I then towed it to the dealership where purchased originally. Vehicle was then towed to and diagnosed at a Chevrolet dealership where ultimately resulted in a valve body and clutch failure.

THE 3RD ROW HEADREST WONT STAY UP I BROUGHT IS TO CHEVEROLET DEALER I SAID THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THE 2021 RECALL ON SEATS IS TO CORRECT THE HEADREST NOT STAYING UP!

VERY FRUSTRATING CHEVROLET STAND BEHIND YOUR PRODUCT IN THE NAME OF SAFETY!!

Sunroof exploded for no reason and no prior issues while driving on the interstate. It sounded like a gun went off and glass fell on me. Luckily I was able to keep control of the vehicle with the shock.

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the forward collision, check engine, and traction control warning lights illuminated, and the messages "Forward Collision Unavailable," "Service Traction Control," and "Service ESC" displayed on the instrument panel. An abnormal muffler sound was heard, the engine compartment vibrated, and the vehicle failed to accelerate above 35 MPH. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the engine was disassembled and it was determined that the lifters failed and the engine required replacement. Prior to the failure, the vehicle was taken to the dealer for an illuminated check engine warning light and an engine knocking sound; however, the dealer only cleared the diagnostic trouble codes while the vehicle was under warranty. The manufacturer was notified of the failure by phone. The failure mileage was unknown.

This is the 2nd time this has happened while traveling on a 5 hour road trip in the rain at night. The front windshield wipers just stop working. The first time it happened was a year ago, 2025. We had to replace the wiper motor. It just happened again 10/11/2026 in a heavy rain storm in the dark. NO warning lights or indicators.

Thursday XXX - Left [XXX] on our way to [XXX] for a beach vacation on our 2022 Chevy Tahoe z71. Made it to [XXX] and spent the night there Friday XXX - Left our hotel in [XXX] and headed to [XXX]. Expected arrival time 8 pm About 40 miles east of [XXX] our Tahoe shuts down and I pull to the side of the road in the middle of nowhere. It’s 99 degrees. I called several dealerships around and decided on Ryan Chevrolet in [XXX]. I called a tow truck and wait for 3 hours. My wife and two kids walk 1 mile to a gas station. I call the XXXstate patrol to get them to park behind me as semis at 80 miles per hour are flying by me. Having semis pass by at 80 miles per hour is obviously very scary and extremely dangerous. Tow truck takes me and the Tahoe to Ryan Chevrolet and am able to drop the car there 30 minutes before they close for the weekend. Tow truck driver takes me to the XXX airport where I have managed to rent an SUV that will allow me to complete my vacation. Drive through the night and make it to my hotel in [XXX] at 2:30 am. Thursday XXX - Drive back to [XXX] Friday XXX Go to Enterprise Rental cars in [XXX], explain that I will need a car till my Tahoe gets its engine replaced. I get a Chevy Blazer. Friday XXX - I drive 5 hours to [XXX] to pick up my Chevy Tahoe, return the Enterprise rental at the [XXX] airport and then drive another 5 hours back to [XXX]. I bought this car new at the dealership and has only been serviced by that same dealership. About a year ago the oil type was changed as part of the recall.

The suspension system on the 2022 Tahoe has been defective. It started as a creaking noise we took for repair, the dealership said it was a strut. Creaking noise continued took to another shop they said creaking came from ball joints being bad. The service transmission light comes on and off, service safety restraints, screen goes black and does not respond. Take to dealership multiple times to fix issues but they still continue

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact stated that while driving approximately 70 MPH, the vehicle stalled with the message "Press to Start" displayed. The vehicle was parked on the shoulder of the road and failed to restart. The vehicle was later towed to the local dealer, and the contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The contact stated that the engine was the replacement engine after the failure of the original engine. The replacement was performed under NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V274000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 10,000.

My 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe equipped with the 5.3L V8 experienced a severe engine failure at approximately 92,144 miles. The vehicle developed multiple misfires and was towed to the Chevrolet dealership for diagnosis. The dealership documented a failed lifter, significant camshaft damage, metal in the engine oil, and metal contamination throughout the engine. The engine had to be replaced with a complete long block at a total cost of approximately $14,395. I am concerned because this was a major internal engine failure at relatively low mileage, involving a lifter and resulting in extensive engine damage. GM has issued technical service information regarding lifter-related conditions and misfires affecting the 5.3L L84 engine family, which is the engine in my vehicle. GM provided $1,859.29 in partial repair assistance but has declined any additional assistance. I am reporting this failure because I believe the nature and severity of the engine failure warrant investigation for a potential recurring safety or reliability issue involving the 5.3L L84 engine.

I am reporting a transmission failure involving my 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe Z71, VIN [XXX]. In XXX, while driving, my Tahoe became stuck in Drive and would not shift into Reverse. The transmission then completely failed and the vehicle could no longer be driven normally. I took the vehicle to a Chevrolet dealership, where the transmission failure was diagnosed and replacement was recommended. GM’s quoted replacement cost was very high, so I had the transmission replaced by an independent mechanic in [XXX] using a certified GM replacement transmission. I subsequently became aware of NHTSA recall 26V085 / GM N252536750 involving certain 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe vehicles with the 10-speed transmission. The recall involves a transmission control valve that may fail and cause loss of transmission function and, under certain circumstances, rear-wheel lockup. My Tahoe’s manufacturing date is XXX, so I understand it is outside the currently identified production range for this recall. However, my vehicle experienced a complete transmission failure with an inability to shift into Reverse. I am requesting that NHTSA review this failure to determine whether the original transmission may have experienced the same or a related defect and whether vehicles outside the currently identified production range may also be affected. The Chevrolet dealership that diagnosed the failure may have diagnostic records, trouble codes, and transmission identification information for the original transmission. I can provide these records and the independent repair documentation if needed. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Vehicle began making loud knocking sound XXX Towed to dealer 9/8 after holiday. They found metal in the oil and believe it needs an engine replacement. A week later I have no answers, there's no loaners available, so I am just without a car. We bought car from Zimbrick Chevy in [XXX]. It was never disclosed to us that the vehicle had an engine replacement right before we purchased. New engine lasted about 16,000 miles. Only once we saw the history of the car in the current dealership's service app did we learn about the engine replacement. This is beyond unacceptable!

Car has a parasitic draw and is on its second battery in 3 years. The dealer can’t seem to fix the issue and shows little concern to find the issue. Dangerous to get stranded somewhere or in the cold. It’s erratic when it decides to kill the battery and not safe.

Had a engine failure at 93,000 miles and upon doing a vin report found out it also had a engine put it at 7,800 miles so it now has its third engine in it and also had the high pressure pump fail and the gauge cluster fail and had to be replaced

I am the original owner of my vehicle. It is essentially 4 years old and the evaporator coil has gone out on the vehicle. The evaporator coil goes passed just cooling the car. It affects the defrosting and temperature of the windshield for safety. The dealership is the one too have diagnosed the issue with the vehicle. It requires a complete disassembling of the dashboard on their part in order to repair. The only warning I received was the passenger's side of the car blew cool air, the driver's side blew hot air for a couple of days and then it went out completely. There was housing by the dashboard. When it rained, I could not defrost my windows. I was in a very unsafe situation.

Driving 55mph on highway with cars behind me and vehicle stalls. Almost rear ended. Fuel pump control module failed.

Onstar hardware failure. I have already replaced the onstar module in 2023 due to failure. Now the hardware has failed again. No longer under warranty and GM will not replace.

This vehicle is subject to Safety Recall N252494000 / NHTSA Campaign 25V274 for a known L87 6.2L V8 engine defect. Prior to the June 2025 recall notice, I incurred repair costs for the same defect at Schumacher Chevrolet, [XXX], on XXX ($405.63) and XXX ($2,755.76), neither of which resolved the issue. On XXX and again on 02/14/2025, the vehicle suffered total loss of propulsion on [XXX], once causing a missed professional licensing exam and requiring emergency roadside repair. The vehicle's engine replacement repair order remained open for 181 consecutive days (XXX) before GM authorized a full engine replacement under warranty. I submitted a written reimbursement demand to GM on XXX for $10,717.31 in documented losses under 49 CFR § 577.7. GM has not responded in writing and instead offered an unverifiable verbal credit of $3,000, which the servicing dealer has no record of. I am filing this complaint due to GM's failure to remedy this known, pre-notification defect within a reasonable time as required by 49 U.S.C. § 30120.

The transmission began slipping at 20, 25, 35, and 45 mph by the time we hit 80k miles. The vehicle was out of warranty. We were told it was unaffected by the recalls and not related to the issues affecting other drivers. It now has 167k miles and we have tried having the transmission flushed but it still slips and needs a new transmission. Chevy knows about these issues and refuses to replace their horrible product since they also sell the cure to the problem and make money off of it.
