An issue that I have had since the used vehicle was purchased in 2016 superior interior led lighting, however:: activate left turn signal or step on the brakes, these interior bright led cabin lights flash brightly and intermittently. Stopped at an intersection, it's embarrassing, interior led lighting continues to flash as if there was a strobe within the interior cabin, when my foot on brake and or left turn signal. Hazard / 4-way activate the interior lights also. At night distraction for myself as an operator, safety issue- reflection off the windshield during hours of darkness, annoyance to all passengers 'disco car' black electrical tape was placed over the mid-cabin interior light, youngest son hates to ride in the vehicle because of the lighting issue. Visible and obvious to other motorists during hours of darkness when stopped aside, front and/or rear of the vehicle. Dealership ' $180 to fix, also that a service bulletin exists, advised to wait for re-call - back for re-call approximately 1 year later, service rep stated, still no re-call. I was advised at that time, by the "same" service rep in the service department, at the same dealership, that they, (Chevrolet) are currently un-aware of any such issue with the interior lighting. I have been a police officer for nearly 40 years assigned to traffic division. Re-constructionist, with extensive accident reconstruction training and investigations / 15 years certified through cvsa. Previous unrelated re-call notices, Chevrolet is claiming a cause of 'potential customer annoyance', let me tell you, it's annoying. Recalls again about other unrelated issues, Chevrolet claims to be 'concerned about your safety and continued satisfaction with our products' I'm also concerned about my safety as well as my passengers. Numerous complaints in regards to this issue are posted
When I hit a bump the steering locks up for a quick second and all the warning lights flash quickly. The doors lock as well. It is usually when I hit a bump on the passenger side area. Voltage meter flickers and headlights dim.
My Tahoe showed stabilitrak issues when I first bought it a year ago. I received a recall notice and took it into the nearest dealer. It was ok for awhile but the same problem started again a month ago. The truck turns on and off for about 1 second as I'm pulling into a parking space. However, now I've had issues when I try to lock it with the fob; it does nothing. I have been stranded at a business because it won't turn back on and I have to wait awhile and try to crank it. It comes back on but this has happened to me more than 3 times. Now, I was driving to work and as I pulled into my work garage, everything turned off completely and this time nothing came back on. I had to quickly turn the ignition key to the off position, thankfully I had my foot on the brake and I had to turn it back on again. I was worried because this is in the downtown area and this is a very busy city street in the morning hours. I was lucky it turned back on at all. Another time, I could not start my truck when I got off of work and I was stuck on the 3rd floor of my parking garage. I am concerned that I'll be driving and all of a sudden this Tahoe will shut off while I'm in traffic. I have to travel 3 freeways to get to work and back home during heavy traffic, I'm worried about my safety and others as well because since this is an issue where the truck turns off completely, I will have no control on getting hit or hitting someone else at a high rate of speed (65 mph)
During a low speed left turn across oncoming lanes of traffic, my 2015 Tahoe had a complete loss of all power and stopped right in the middle of oncoming traffic. Luckily oncoming traffic was at a distance that they were able to notice my Tahoe had died blocking their lanes, and they corrected their path to go around. We could have been injured at the least if oncoming traffic had not noticed that our vehicle died. I purchased this Tahoe used 3 weeks ago and this has happened 5 times since. After investigating on the internet I located post saying this issue has affected over 1 million other 2015 Tahoe.

I own a 2015 Tahoe that I really want to like, but the problems have been one after another! I have had my window panels replaced 3 times. My dvd player stopped working. My A/C just had to be repaired for a leaking condenser, and now my back hatch won't open due to the motor going out. Oh...and I almost forgot I have been without onstar/ gps for about a year now because that is also broken.
My 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe ltz's headlights have developed condensation inside of them. The driver side light has an inch of standing water in it and now the turn signal and led running light no longer work on that side. Chevrolet said it will cost over $2,000 to replace both headlights. I know several other Tahoe owners that have the same problem and our local police department has also had to replace headlights in several of their patrol Tahoe. Chevy needs to issue a recall on their defective product!!!
I 2019 around March to may I took my car to the Chevrolet place in claxton, ga due to my brakes not working properly and showing "brake assist" message. They had my car in their shop five times for this matter. First three times they couldn't find anything, fourth time they replaced the wrong part and cost me almost $500. Fifth time they replaced in under the recall that was out then. Now, Feb 2020 my car has brake issues again. This time my car is showing "stabilitrak" and "brake assist". they are wanting to repair a hub, a module and struts and saying that this is also due to a "side detection system". my struts were related last year before the previous brake repair. I have done my research online and seen that many vehicles from many year makes have had these issues with their vehicle and GM is avoiding the issue. I have two small children that ride in this car and one was in the car with me when my brakes didn't work properly this past issue. My car was now been in the shop for brake issues 6 times and this side detection issue I think needs tone looked into further being so many customers are having issues with this.
While the vehicle is in motion, and the interior dome lights are off, I press the brake pedal, and the dome lights flicker very intensely for a half-second. This flickering also happens when the left turn signal is activated. It is a very bright flicker and could cause an accident due to momentary distraction or light-blinding.

The cause of the failure has not yet been determined the contact was left stranded in the middle of the road and expressed concerns for his safety.

The vehicle was towed to herb chambers Chevrolet (90 andover St. Danvers MA 01923). The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 96,000.
Interior lights blink when brakes are tapped and when using left turn signal. Has been happening for 2.5 years and I notified the dealership but repair would have been my cost.
I purchased my vehicle'2015 Chevy Tahoe lt on July 1, 2019 I have had intermittent glitches in the electrical system. The headlights, dash lights, and mylink touchscreen will completely black out and then come back on. However, when this happens the steering wheel locks up for a split second. This is happening while driving, at speeds over 50mph, during the night and day. It was suspected to be the alternator or battery, after replacing the alternator there was no change in the behavior. It continues to happen. The service stabilitrack warning will also pop up after the power is restored. This issue is very dangerous and after reading dozens of forums it's clear this is not an isolated incident. This has happened over and over at least 20 times since July 2019, randomly and completely unexpectedly.
I put on the brakes and the interior lights flicker it is distracting while driving at night. Seems to happen while car is running on the cooler side or just starting. This has been happening since we purchased the vehicle. I have done some research and it seems that I am not the only 2015 Chevy Tahoe owner who is experiencing this issue.
Driver side seat buckle doesn't latch at all times. Also all interior overhead lights 'disco lights' flicker when the brake pedal is pressed or the turn signal is used.
When turning on the brights on my 2015 chevytahoe the dash screen will flash on and off, as well as shut off the cruise control when on. In addition, the stabilitrak will flash an error message. In addition to all of this the headlights flash while driving. At night this is very scary and harmful. These electrical issues need to be corrected!
I have a 2015 Chevy Tahoe.it has put my family in harms way a dozen times in the last 3 months.the vehicle shows a "stabilitrak" warning..then the steering wheel locks, the engine and all electrical shuts down, and you loose complete control over the vehicle at highway speeds.it has almost killed us.GM and our local Chevy dealership are doing nothing about it.the Chevy mechanics keep telling us there is nothing wrong with it.we are honeslty afraid the vehicle is going to kill us or someone else.
All of the dome lights in my Tahoe flash when I brake or put on the left turn signal. A simple google search shows that this seems to be a fairly common problem with specifically the 2015 Tahoe.
