1997 Chevrolet Tahoe Problems

WHILE IN MOTION SEAT BELT WOULD COME UNDONE OR WOULDN'T UNLOCK FROM LOCK IN ORDER TO USE. BRAKES WOULD SLIP. MY BOYFRIEND WAS KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE SEAT BELT MALFUNCTIONED WHICH THEN CAUSED THE AIRBAGS TO MALFUNCTION AND THE BRAKES STUCK SO HE WASN'T ABLE TO SLOW DOWN SUFFICIENTLY.

BRAKE FAILURE DUE TO BRAKE LINE CORROSION. FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE VEHICLE IN MOTION AT EXPRESSWAY SPEED, PANIC STOP, BRAKES FAILED AND NEARLY CAUSED COLLISION. BRAKES DO NOT WORK

WHEN TURNING ONTO AN ON-RAMP (USUALLY RIGHT) THE VEHICLE WILL MOMENTARILY LOSE POWER STEERING AND THE STEERING WHEEL WILL JERK RIGHT. THIS JERKING MOTION ALSO HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WITH NO TURNING INVOLVED. EVEN THOUGH THERE IS MORE JERKING MOTION ON A TURN BOTH ARE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL YEARS.

POWER STEERING INPUT/EFFORT HAD BECAME ERRATIC CAUSING INCREASED EFFORT OR WORSE, OVERSTEERING MIDWAY THROUGH TURNS. FIRST NOTICED THIS PROBLEM LAST FALL AT WINTER TIRE CHANGEOVER. I INITIALLY BLAMED IT ON ICY ROADS BUT THEN NOTICED IT ON OBVIOUSLY NON ICY ROADS AS WELL. OCCURRED JUST OCCASIONALLY AT FIRST. I KEPT BLAMING TIRES BUT THIS SPRING WHEN I CHANGED BACK OVER TO MY SUMMER TIRES THE PROBLEM DID NOT GO AWAY. DEALERSHIP HAD INDICATED SOME WORN FRONT END PARTS NEEDING REPLACEMENT SO I HAD THAT DONE ALONG WITH A FRONT END ALIGNMENT FOLLOWING. DIDN'T HELP. FOUND MANY DISCUSSIONS WITH SIMILAR EXPERIENCES ON THE INTERNET AND MOST INDICATED REPLACING THE STEERING EVO SENSOR AS THE CURE. I REPLACED THAT PART AND IT SEEMS TO HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM. THE SENSATION OF THE LOSS OF STEERING MIDCORNER IS AT THE LEAST A LITTLE DISCONCERTING AND AT THE MOST COULD LEAD TO AN OVER-REACTION AND A SEVERE CRASH! WITH AS MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE AS I FOUND I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS COULD HAVE BEEN LET GO AND NOT CALLED TO MY ATTENTION BY THE COMPANY. THE COMPANY KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AS THE PARTS CLERK TOLD ME THEY EVEN HAVE A RETRO KIT AVAILABLE TO REPLACE THIS ASSISTED STEERING SYSTEM PERIOD! *TR

THE POWER WINDOW ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WILL STOP WORKING ALL OF A SUDDEN. IT IS NOT ALL OF THE TIME, BUT SOMETIMES, WHEN I HAVE THE WINDOW DOWN, AND I PUSH THE POWER SWITCH TO CLOSE OR OPEN THE WINDOW IT WILL NOT WORK. THIS COULD LEAD TO A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM, IF FOR SOME REASON I AM UNABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR AND THEN THE WINDOW WILL NOT GO DOWN. WE LIVE IN MICHIGAN AND YOU RECENTLY RECALLED VEHICLES BECAUSE OF A PROBLEM WITH THE MASTER POWER WINDOW SWITCH CAUSING FIRES IN THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR, WHICH ENDED UP MELTING AND/OR BURNING THE DOOR. THERE MUST BE CORROSION OF THE WIRING IN MY VEHICLE THAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM WITH MY WINDOW. I KNOW THAT YOUR RECALL WAS NOT FOR THE SAME YEAR AS MY VEHICLE, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND I DON'T WANT TO END UP HAVING MY CAR DOOR CATCH ON FIRE, ESPECIALLY IF ME OR MY FAMILY ARE IN IT, OR IF IT IS PARKED IN OUR GARAGE IT COULD BURN OUR ENTIRE HOUSE DOWN. WHEN WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS BRAND NEW, AND THERE HAVE BEEN NO OTHER OWNERS. *TR

VISIBILITY. 1997 TAHOE WIPER MOTOR PULSE BOARD. NUMEROUS FAILURES. TSB ISSUED. RECALL ON SIMILAR VEHICLES. SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN RECALL RANGE IN LIEU OF TSB. DANGEROUS DUE TO INOPERATION. CAN CAUSE CRASH WITH RESULTING DEATH(S). *TR

HAVE A 1997 TAHOE TWO DOOR 4X4 WITH 126,000 MILES... TRANSMISSION HOUSING CRACKED YESTERDAY. UPON INVESTIGATION I SEE THAT CHEVROLET HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOR OVER TEN YEARS AND HAVE YET TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH CHEVY. AND THEIR QUALITY OF WORKMANSHIP. I HOPE SOMETHING WILL BE DONE ABOUT THIS FOR THE AMERICAN CONSUMER. SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A TOYOTA LIKE MY FRIENDS SAID HA HA. SERIOUSLY, QUALITY SHOULD COME BEFORE PROFIT!!!!. *JB

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILURE. EXTREMELY COMMON TO MY 97 CHEVY TAHOE. REQUIRED COMPLETE REBUILD AND LOTS OF MONEY. I CALLED PROBABLY A DOZEN TRANSMISSION REPAIR FACILITIES AND ALMOST ALL SAID I WAS LUCKY I MADE IT TO SO MANY MILES BEFORE THIS HAPPENED AS IT IS VERY COMMON IN THIS TRANSMISSION. ALL SAY IT COMES FROM A STRUCTURALLY FLAWED IN DESIGN PIECE IN THE TRANS THAT BREAKS AND OF COURSE COMPLETELY CONTAMINATES THE TRANS WITH METAL AND DESTROYS THE MAJORITY OF THE REMAINING PARTS.*JB

I PURCHASED A USED 1997 CHEVROLET TAHOE AND SINCE THAT TIME THE FUEL PUMP HAS GONE OUT 5 TIMES, ONCE IN APRIL, JUNE, SEPTEMBER, TWICE IN OCTOBER AND IN NOVEMBER. THE LATEST INCIDENT WAS ON 12/06/06. I HAVE YET TO FIND A MECHANIC WHO CAN TELL ME THE PROBLEM THAT I'M EXPERIENCING. THE WIRING SEEMS TO FAULTY IS ALL I HEAR. PLEASE HELP!!!! *JB

DT*: THE CONTACTED STATED THE ENGINE BUCKED AND HESITATED WHEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS DEPRESSED, THEN THE ENGINE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE SERVICE DEALER WHERE THE DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED THREE TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED.

LOWER RIGHT BALL JOINT ON VEHICLE FAILED CAUSING TRUCK TO LOSE CONTROL SIDE SWIPE A PARKED CAR AND TRAVEL ANOTHER 70 FEET KNOCKING OVER A STOP SIGN. DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BELT DID NOT HOLD ME IN SEAT CAUSING ME TO GO FORWARD HITTING HEAD ON STEERING WHEEL. I CRACKED A MOLAR TOOTH AND BOTH KNEES WERE INJURED HITTING THE TRIM PIECE UNDER INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. *TR

WHEN DRIVING AROUND CURVES STEERING WHEEL JERKED, FORCING THE VEHICLE INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. *AK

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 1997 CHEVY TAHOE. THE OTHER DAY WHILE LISTENING TO THE EXPANDING RECALL OF GM VEHICLES I TRIED TO REMOVE MY KEY FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH. TO MY SURPRISE ONCE THE VEHICLE IS STARTED I CAN REMOVE MY KEY, SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR AND DRIVE WITHOUT A KEY IN THE IGNITION. MAYBE THIS IS DUE TO THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE, BUT IT HAS ONLY 148000 MILES ON IT. THOUGHT YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED TO KNOW. COULD VIDEO THIS ISSUE IF YOU ARE FURTHER INTERESTED. *TR

I BOUGHT THIS CAR AT CAR HOP IN ARLINGTON TX. I WAS SOLD IT WITH NO BRAKE LIGHTS, NO HAZARDS, BAD TIRES, BAD BRAKES, ONE OF THE BACK DOORS WILL NOT OPEN, BAD BATTERY, BAD INSPECTION, NO COVER FOR FUEL FILTER, DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN, KEEPS DYING, SPARE TIRE FLEW OFF ON HIGHWAY AND BRAKES WENT OUT WHILE MY KIDS AND I WERE DRIVING. I AM A DISABLED MOTHER OF TWO AND THEY KNEW THEY GAVE ME A BAD CAR. THE FIRST I HAD 5 KIDS WITH ME AND IT WAS A KIA MINI VAN DIDNT EVEN MAKE IT HOME, THEY HAD TO COME TOW IT. THEN THAY GAVE ME THIS TAHOE. PLEASE HELP ME I HAVE NO OTHER CAR AND IT SCARES ME AND THEY WILL NOT HELP ME. I AM PAYING EVERY MONTH ON THIS VEHICALE AND WENT ALL THE WAY TO CORPORATE. THEY SENT ME TO THEIR MEHCANIC AND HE EVEN WROTE A E-MAIL DESCRIBING THE CONDITION AND STILL DID NOT CARE CAR HOP. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!! GOD BLESS. *TR

ABS SYSTEM COMES ON AT LOW SPEEDS WITHOUT BRAKE PRESSED-VEHICLE THEN IS HARD TO STOP AND PULLS TO THE RIGHT. I HAVE REPLACED ALL PADS AND CALIPERS.MACHINE BLED SYSTEM AND REPLACED LEFT FRT SPEED SENSOR. TOOK TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE FRONT HUBS ARE EXPOSED AND MOST OF THE TIME TEAR APART AND CLEANING SOLVES. AM UPSET THE DEALER CHARGED A DIAGNOSTIC FEE FOR SOMETHING HE COULD HAVE TOLD ME ON THE PHONE!*AK

TRANSMISSION: I BELIEVE THE PART IS CALLED THE REVERSE DRUM IN THE TRANSMISSION. THE CAR WOULD NOT REVERSE AND HAD A DIFFICULT TIME SHIFTING FROM 1RST TO 2ND. THE FIRST TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AT 32,700 MILES AND REPLACED BY GM (UNDER WARRANTY) WITH REBUILT TRANSMISSION FROM FACTORY PER GM, FOR SAME PROBLEM, SHIFTING AND REVERSE. SINCE CAR MANUFACTURED IN 1997 THIS IS IT'S THIRD TRANSMISSION AND IT HAS LESS THAN 66K MILES ON IT AND IS USED 99% OF THE TIME FOR OPEN ROAD TRIPS ONLY. WHEN I HAD THIS PROBLEM AGAIN I WAS DRIVING ON AN OPEN HIGHWAY (ROAD TRIP). PER REPAIR SHOP MECHANIC: REVERSE DRUM WAS DEFECTIVE, CHEAPLY BUILT AND CONSTRUCTED TO FAIL. ALSO, MY VEHICLE TRANSMISSION WAS THE MECHANIC'S 16TH CHEVROLET TRANSMISSION REPAIR FOR THE SAME PROBLEM ON CHEVROLET VEHICLES IN THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. HE KNEW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS WHEN I EXPLAINED WHAT HAD HAPPENED RE: NOISES, AND HOW IT DROVE, REVERSE ETC... AND HE VERIFIED SAME BY THE TRANSMISSION CHECK AND WORK PERFORMED. HE SAVED THE PART FOR ME, WHICH I HAVE IN MY POSSESSION. GM WOULD NOT PARTICIPATE IN ANY OF THE COST OF REPAIRS SINCE I DECIDED NOT TO LET THEM TEAR THE TRANSMISSION DOWN @ $300.00 COST TO ME TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM, AND , IF I DECIDED I WANTED SOMEONE ELSE TO DO THE WORK, THEY WOULD HAVE TO COME PICK THE BROKEN DOWN TRANSMISSION AND HAUL IT AWAY TO WORK ON IT. IN THE EVENT I WOULD HAVE THE DEALER DO THE WORK, THEN IT WOULD HAVE COST ME APPROX. $3,000.00 WORST CASE SCENARIO, AND MAYBE GM WOULD ASSIST BUT NOT SURE IF THEY WOULD HELP OR NOT OR AT WHAT LEVEL. SINCE THEY REPAIRED THE FIRST TRANSMISSION AND IT WENT OUT AT APPROX. 32K MILES AFTER THAT, I DID NOT HAVE A COMFORT LEVEL THAT THEY WOULD DO A GOOD JOB OR THAT IT WOULD BE REPAIRED. I WAS STUCK ON A ROAD IN THE EARLY EVENING WITH MY ELDERLY MOTHER AND MY SISTER IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME UPON OUR RETURN FROM A DAY AND EVENING TRIP TO RUIDOSO NM, LOCATED APPROX. 2.5 HOURS FROM MY RESIDENCE WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT.

1997 CHEVROLET TAHOE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD REMANUFACTURED ENGINES INSTALLED WITH SAFETY DEFECTS. *AS *TR

I OWN 2 GM VEHICLES. A 1997 CHEVY TAHOE AND A 2005 GMC YUKON. THE CHEVY TAHOE ISAND HAS(FOR SEVERAL YEARS) EXPERIENCING SEVERE COOLING SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS AND HAS NOW TOTALLY FAILED REQUIRING EXPENSIVE AND EXTENSIVE REPAIRS. I HAVE ALWAYS FOLLOWED THE OWNER'S GUIDE AND THE MANUFACTURER'S RECOMMENDATIONS AS TO USING ONLY "DEX-COOL" COOLANT AND AS A RESULT IT'S USE HAS CAUSED THE DESCRIBED FAILURES TO OCCUR. THE USE OF "DEX-COOL" HAS CORRODED AND ERODED ALL OF THE COMPONENTS IN MY VEHICLE'S COOLING SYSTEM FROM THE WATER PUMP, RADIATOR, HOSES, THERMOSTAT, HEATING CORE, ETC. GM IS DENYING THAT "DEX-COOL" PLAYED ANY ROLE IN THESE FAILURES AND THEREFORE I MUST PAY OUT OF MY OWN POCKET FOR THE REPAIRS THAT GM KNEW WOULD RESULT FROM "DEX-COOLS" USE. MY VEHICLE OVERHEATED AND SHUT-OFF SEVERAL TIMES WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY AND EACH TIME I WAS AMID TRAFFIC TRAVELING AT "HIGHWAY SPEEDS". IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS! EACH TIME THAT IT OCCURRED I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED IN FOR REPAIRS AND I WAS TOLD TO FLUSH AND REFILL WITH FRESH COOLANT AND THAT WOULD SOLVE THE OVERHEATING/SHUT-OFF PROBLEM. THE SERVICE WAS PERFORMED AS PER GM SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS EACH TIME. THIS MOST RECENT TIME IS WHEN THE COOLANT "SPILLED" OUT FROM THE WATER PUMP AREA AND LEFT ME STRANDED ONCE AGAIN. THIS TIME I WAS INFORMED OF THE PROBLEMS THAT NOW EXIST INSIDE MY COOLING SYSTEM AND THE EXPENSIVE COSTS THAT I WOULD INCUR FOR THE REPAIRS, REPLACEMENTS AND "FLUSHES" THAT WOULD BE NEEDED IN ORDER TO GET MY VEHICLE BACK ON THE ROAD. ALL OF THE VARIOUS MECHANICS AND RESEARCH INTO THIS MATTER HAVE ONE COMMON FACTOR AND THAT IS THE USE OF "DEX-COOL"! *TR

NEAR MISS WITH DEER DUE TO HEADLIGHT LENS OBSCURITY: - WHILE DRIVING DOWN FM 2252, I ALMOST STRUCK A DOG THAT WAS WALKING TOWARD THE ROAD - THE PLASTIC HEADLIGHT COVER HAS BECOME FOGGED AND NEARLY OPAQUE, LEADING TO OBSCURED VISIBILITY AND GREATLY DECREASED THE DISTANCE THE LIGHT CARRIES - NEW HEADLIGHT LENSES (~$240 A PIECE) WERE OBTAINED. *JB

PLASTIC HEADLIGHT LENSES HAVE BECOME CLOUDY REDUCING LIGHT PROJECTED ONTO THE ROADWAY AHEAD.
