DEAD BATTERY 3 TIMES in a 35 day period. We drove vehicle (2022 Tahoe) 15 months without any issues. February 9, 2023 we had the main instrument cluster not come on when vehicle was started, we cut off / restarted vehicle and instrument cluster came back on with no further issues to date. Vehicle did some type of over the air update after February 9, 2023 and before February 26, 2023. Vehicle gave a low battery light on February 26, 2023. Vehicle was taken to Chevrolet Dealership on February 27, 2023 and returned to me on March 1, 2023 with a new battery installed. March 19, 2023 vehicle battery died with roadside assistance called to jump off vehicle. Returned vehicle to Chevrolet Dealership on March 20, 2023 and was told the radio was not turning off as designed and there was an open sensor in the windshield - both items repaired and vehicle returned to me on March 21, 2023. April 2, 2023 vehicle battery died with roadside assistance called to jump off vehicle. Returned vehicle on April 3, 2023 to Chevrolet Dealership. Vehicle has been at Chevrolet Dealership for 3 weeks. As of today, April 24, 2023 Dealership / GM state that they cannot find anything wrong, but want to pull the fuse out for the liftgate module and return the vehicle. I asked why not replace the liftgate module and am being told that they do not know that the lift gate module is the issue, so they will not replace module. At this time I see no evidence that the root cause of battery failure has been identified and GM / Dealership is wanting to return the vehicle to service on the hope that pulling a fuse for the handsfree liftgate module will resolve the issue leaving my family at risk of another battery failure.

The backup camera system on my 2022 Tahoe has repeatedly malfunctioned, causing a safety issue when backing up. This component/system has failed to provide a clear view of the area behind the vehicle, which is crucial for safe backing up. I can make the component or system available for inspection upon request. The malfunctioning backup camera system has put both my safety and the safety of others at risk. Without a clear view of the area behind the vehicle, I cannot see if there are any obstacles or people in the way, which can lead to accidents or collisions. Yes, the problem has been reproduced and confirmed by a dealer. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer multiple times for this issue, but the problem persists. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealer, but I am not aware of any inspections by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. The backup camera system would work fine for some time, but then it would malfunction without any warning. This has been happening since I purchased the vehicle.

The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 1,157 reports of engine bearing failure failures in the L87 6.2L engine produced by General Motors (GM). Of the 1,157 reports received, 173 are outside of the scope of recall 25V-274. These engines are installed in Model Years (MY) 2019–2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500, and 2021-2024MY Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe, GMC Yukon/Yukon XL, and Cadillac Escalade/Escalade ESV vehicles. The subject engine failures were investigated as part of a Preliminary Evaluation (PE25001). GM determined that these engine failures were due to multiple supplier manufacturing and quality issues. GM issued recall 25V-274 to address the supplier manufacturing and quality issues produced between March 1, 2021, and May 31, 2024. Based on the issuance of recall 25V-274, NHTSA has closed PE25001. ODI continues to receive a significant number of reports of engine failure in vehicles outside the scope of 25V-274. This presents a potential safety risk that warrants further investigation.
