| Description of the problem | I was driving on the service road, preparing to enter the highway. Suddenly, the door-locks started going up and down repeatedly, and the interior lights started flashing on and off repeatedly. Then the engine turned off which made it come to a sudden hard stop. The engine restarted on its own. Thankfully, my dealership was at the nearest intersection, so i was able to drive the 2014 tahoe to the dealership. The locks continued to go up and down and the interior lights continued to flash on and off as i pulled into the dealership. I turned the car off to go inside of the dealership to let the manager know what had just happened. My husband came to the dealership to see what was going on. The manager told us to pull the car around to the service department, but the car would not start and had to be towed to the service department. I did a search and saw that there was a recall on 2014 chevrolet tahoes for electrical issues that could cause it to stall. A couple of days later the dealership and service department had to close for a while because of covid-19, but when they reopened the service manager informed me that my vin number was not included in the recall; therefore, gm will not pay for my vehicle to be repaired. I refuse to drive it in that condition so i've traded it in for a new, non-chevrolet/gm vehicle. I am reporting this to prevent anyone else from purchasing and driving this vehicle until it has been repaired. It's dangerous! |
