2004 Chevrolet Tahoe

WHEN AIR CONDITIONER IS RUNNING, AIR COMING FROM DRIVER'S SIDE VENTS BECOME EXTREMELY HOT WHILE PASSENGER'S SIDE REMAINS COOL. I CANNOT DETERMINE ANY SPECIFIC CONDITIONS THAT MADE THIS OCCUR. IT SEEMS TO BE TOTALLY RANDOM. THE HOT AIR IS NOT WARM AIR OR PRETTY HOT AIR, IT IS EXTREMELY HOT, HOTTER THAN A HAIR DRYER PRODUCES AT ITS HOTTEST. I REPORT THIS BECAUSE IT IS OBVIOUSLY A SAFETY HAZARD AND, JUDGING FROM COMPLAINTS SHOWING ON INTERNET BLOGS, IT IS FAIRLY COMMON. APPARENTLY CHEVROLET IS ADMITTING NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS FAILURE, EVEN DENYING THAT IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM.

2004 TAHOE TRAILER TOW INOPERATIVE. NO HITCH PACK ON THE VEHICLE, SO I WAS NOT OVERLY CONCERNED, BUT NOW I HAVE MANY OTHER INDICATION PROBLEMS WITH MY CLUSTER AND SPEED CONTROL, PERHAPS THEY ARE RELATED. GM WILL NOT WARRANTY THE KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE SPEED CONTROL AND CLUSTER. COMPLAINT PREVIOUSLY FILED AND GM CUSTOMER SERVICE PREVIOUSLY CONTACTED. ISSUE NOT RESOLVED. *TR

2004 TAHOE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT WILL STOP AND START BLOWING HOT AIR AT MAXIMUM VOLUME. VEHICLE MUST BE SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY AND RESTARTED TO CORRECT THE ISSUE TEMPORARILY. ISSUE HAS BEEN INTERMITTENT SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NEW. GM COULD NEVER DUPLICATE, NO REPAIR EVER MADE TO VEHICLE. ON GOING ISSUE WITH HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEM. *TR

2004 CHEVY TAHOE SPEEDOMETER STICKS AT VARIOUS SPEED LEVELS AND INTERMITTENTLY WILL NOT RETURN TO ZERO WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN MOTION. SPEEDOMETER CAN STICK AT EXCESSIVE SPEEDS INDICATED ON THE CLUSTER, THIS HAD INTERMITTENTLY EFFECTED THE CRUISE CONTROL OPERATION. THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE BY GM, NO RECALL WAS PROVIDED. MY VEHICLE IS OVER 80,000 (82,500) MILES. ISSUE STARTED WITH MY VEHICLE AT ABOUT 78K, BUT WAS NOT BROUGHT IN BY ME TO GM BECAUSE THERE WAS NOT AN ANNOUNCED RECALL. GM DECIDED TO REPLACE THE CLUSTERS FOR CUSTOMERS WHO HAD THE DEFECT OCCUR BETWEEN 70 AND 80K, WITH A CHARGE FOR THE LABOR, NOT THE PART. GIVEN THE FACT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE (SPEED INDICATION AND INTERMITTENT CRUISE CONTROL, GM SHOULD PROVIDE FULL REPLACEMENT, PARTS AND LABOR. *TR

2004 TAHOE: SPEEDOMETER READS CRAZY DURING LONG TRIP. HAVE READ ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND NOW IT HAS HAPPENED TO MY TAHOE. IT'S NOW A PERMANENT ISSUE AND I RELY ON MY GPS DEVICE TO MONITOR MY SPEED. I'M WAITING FOR THE OTHER CLUSTER INSTRUMENTS TO FAIL AND THEN I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE PARTS ON ALL. IT'S PATHETIC THAT GM WILL NOT RECALL THIS AS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. IT'S NOT LIKE YOU CAN DRIVE WITHOUT THIS GAUGE - WILL GM PAY MY TICKETS? *TR

I HAVE A 2004 CHEVROLET TAHOE WITH 68,863 MILES. THE SPEEDOMETER STARTING READING 20 MILES AN HOUR YESTERDAY WHEN PARKED. WHEN DRIVING THE SPEEDOMETER IS ERRATIC AND READS APPROXIMATELY 20-30 MILES AN HOUR FASTER THAN I BELIEVE I AM TRAVELING. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND MANY REPORTS OF THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE AND THIS DEFECT IS A PROBLEM THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD REPAIR AT NO CHARGE. RECALL THIS VEHICLE. *TR

2004 CHEVY TAHOE (108K MILES) SPEEDOMETER WAS STUCK AT 70 MPH, THEN SLOWLY DECREASED DOWN TO ZERO. OVER THE NEXT 3 WEEKS IT BECAME MORE SPORADIC AND NOW IT ONLY READS "0" ALL THE TIME. MECHANIC WANTED TO CHARGE ME $350 TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT AND CHEVY SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT. *TR

MY 2004 CHEVROLET TAHOE HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE SPEEDOMETER NOT GIVING ACCURATE READINGS. IT WILL JUMP FROM 0 TO 120 MPH AND STICK SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN OR GIVE A FALSE MPH READING OR JUST GO TO ZERO AND REGISTER NOTHING. THE PROBLEM SEEMS PREVALENT WITH ALL TAHOES. GM NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL AND FIX THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION INSTEAD OF CHARGING EVERYBODY $500-$900 WHEN THEY KNOW THEY HAVE A SERIOUS DEFECT. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ONGOING NOW FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 CHEVY TAHOE. MY INSTRUMENT PANEL IS MESSED UP. MY SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT WORK, IT FLUTTERS OR PEGS OUT ALL THE WAY. NOW MY OIL GAUGE IS BOTTOM OUT. IN RESEARCHING THE INTERNET, I SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THAT CHEVY WILL ONLY FIX IT IF YOU HAVE LESS THAN 70,000 MILES. I HAVE OVER 100,000 MILES ON MY CAR AND I CONSIDER IT A SAFETY HAZARD. 98% OF THE TIME I DO NOT KNOW HOW FAST I AM REALLY GOING. I HEARD THAT A RECALL WILL NOT BE ISSUED BECAUSE IT IS NOT A "SAFETY HAZARD". WELL I DISAGREE, BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE NOT ALWAYS AWARE OF THEIR FUEL LEVEL, HOW FAST/SLOW THEY ARE REALLY DRIVING. *TR
