WHILE DRIVING FOR ABOUT 3 MINUTES ON STREET THE TAHOE STARTED TO SMELL LIKE SMOKE, WE THEN NOTICED SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE AIR CONDITIONING VENTS IN A MATTER OF SECONDS THERE WHERE FLAMES COMING OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT. THE CAR CAUGHT ON FIRE AND THE AIR BAG DEPLOYED. THE DASH BOARD WAS COMPLETELY MELTED FROM THE FIRE, THE FRONT WINDSHILLED SHATTERED WITH FORCE TOWARDS THE BACK OF THE TRUCK.

"TAKATA RECALL" ABOUT A MONTH AGO MY TRUCK (ABS) STARTED ACTIVE ITSELF AND WHEN DRIVING IT WILL ACT AS IF IT'S ABOUT TO STOP ON ITS OWN AND JERKED TO THE LEFT. THEN SHORTLY AFTER IT START MAKING A LOUD NOISE THEN THE NOISE GOTTEN LOUDER WHERE OTHERS CAN HEAR IT NOT ONLY ME. I HAD ONE OF THE WHEELS HUB REPLACE AND IT STOP FOR A DAY AND CONTINUE AND NOW IT'S TO THE POINT WHERE IT'S BEGINNING TO SHAKE WHILE DRIVING,AND RIDE DIFFERENT. I HAVE THREE KIDS WHO I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT.

THE LIGHT SHOWING WHAT GEAR YOU ARE IN HAS GONE OUT. IT STARTS ON THEN FADES OFF. I LOOKED UP AND FOUND A RECALL - #05V055000 WHICH IS WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CAR. WHEN I CALLED CHEVY - THEY SAID MY VIN SHOWS NO OPEN RECALLS. THIS MAKES NO SENSE TO ME BEING THAT I AM HAVING THAT EXACT PROBLEM AND MY YEAR MAKE AND MODEL SHOW THAT AS A RECALL? HOW CAN THEY PICK AND CHOSE WHICH CARS WERE AFFECTED BY THE RECALL??
