| Description of the problem | The company i work for purchased four 2008 tahoes new. All have had door lock problems. Mine just happened on both driver side doors and it cost $741 to have fixed today at chevy dealer. I believe the other 3 tahoes were under warranty at the time, but not sure. The tahoe i drive was not under warranty. As others have said, you cannot unlock the rear doors since there is no key, and the manual button is not near the pillars so you cant reach it from the front doors. Its a bad situation if you needed to access the rear doors. |
