Our Tahoe has had an issue over the past 9 months. The engine unexpectedly stalls. This has happened twice while pulling out on to a busy highway. Very frightening. We first took this to the dealer on 8/15/17. They spent hours trying to diagnose and found nothing. The stalling continued to happen occasionally. Early December the stalling occurred while pulling in to our garage. We lost all power momentarily and it would not restart this time. I disconnected the negative battery cable and then reconnected it and everything worked fine again. We took it back to the dealer on 12/8/17. Iafter researching this more it seems numerous people are having the same issue. Traction control warning comes on when the stall occurs. This time I was more insistent that they fix this and explained my wife was scared to death to drive this. This time the dealer said that they have changed the negative battery cable on other customers vehicles and that has fixed the problem. My reaction was why didn't you tell us this last time and why isn't there a recall? so far this has fixed the problem. I contacted GM and they did not give me a straight answer on this proble. Basically they said we may have had a defective part.

Center dome flight "strobes" when brake pedal is depressed. This seems to only happen when headlights are on. This is a know tsb- 1268B. I have contacted both the dealer and GM customer service.- will not be covered since I am out of warranty-
My 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe's interior lights flash brightly when the brake or left turn signal is applied. It is a very bright flash and extremely distracting at night. It happens while driving. I can imagine it is also very distracting to other drivers at night as well. It happens every time the brake or left turn signal is turned on. Online research indicates other people also have this issue. It happens on all roadways at all times. But specifically at night is the safety concern. My passengers in the rear have also been complaining that it is physically stressful to them when the interior lights flash without them expecting them too.

Air conditioning compressor. I had to replace the A/C compressor on my 2015 Tahoe about during July 2015. My vehicle has about 65,000 miles. This was unusual in that I have never had to replace this part in any vehicle I have owned over the last 40 years. The service department at the dealership told me that they are using after market replacement parts because the GM supply chain is out of A/C compressors because they are replacing so many of them in Tahoe/Yukon, Silverado pickups and Cadillac escalades. The part cost me about $1,400 to replace the part. I contacted GM customer service and was told there was nothing they could do because I was beyond warranty. It seems to me that my situation is not an isolated case but part of larger systemic issue in GM manufacturing. If GM supply chain cannot keep compressors in stock because they are replacing so many defective parts, this rises to the level of being a recall.
