The engine started knocking and running rough. My wife pulled the car over. She could tell from the sound it was not a minor issue. We had the 2021 Tahoe toed to Vaden Chevrolet in Beaufort, SC, where we purchased the vehicle. The dealer confirmed it was an engine problem. 8 lifters along with other associated parts need to be replace. This is a major engine repair. The vehicle is 8 months old and has approximately 10,000 miles on it. Doing internet search, the failure of engine lifters in Tahoes and Silverados appears to be a known problem. The service department manager told me that they have already done 10 of these this year. Failure of an engine while driving is a major safety issue. The vehicle is in for repair, now.

We have owned this 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe for a little less than a year. Since acquiring this vehicle, there have been multiple safety recalls and we have had to get the vehicle serviced 3 times due to electrical issues. Now for the major safety issue, was out of town waiting at a red light in a turning lane. As we were waiting, the Tahoe spontaneously turned off. All of the indicator lights on the dashboard were illuminated and my husband tried to restart the car but the engine just kept turning and the car would not start. We put the hazard lights on and wanted to get the vehicle out of the road where there was active traffic. However, the vehicle was unable to be shifted to neutral so we were stuck and also important to note the hazard lights were not working. We towed to the nearest dealership and tow driver had to apply WD40 on the ramp to get the truck off since it wouldn't shift to neutral. At the same time, my husband received an email from OnStar "An issue with the Engine and Transmission System in your 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe has been detected." Now being told by dealership this was caused by a fuel pump module cut off, causing the car to go into "limp mode" so who knows what is true. I do not feel safe driving this car nor having my kids in it. This would be a very different conversation if this happened on a highway. This vehicle should be recalled because someone gets killed.

On my way to work a few days ago I noticed a lag while driving and a knocking feeling/sound ever few seconds going highway speeds. No engine light came on to warn or tell of an issue. I thought maybe it was just a section of roadway that makes cars ride rough. Anyway, made it to work and I could hear a whining sound every time I gave vehicle gas and RPMs increased. We called our GM dealer and he said it-??s a known issue of collapsing lifters and to bring it in for repair. Vehicle had around 5900 miles. 20% oil life was left. I checked oil and level was fine. I-??m in a loaner now waiting for repair. If it-??s a known issue, why is it happening. Inferior parts or bad design? A recall needs to happen before someone gets hurt.

We purchased this vehicle on 11/28/20, and on 12/10/20 began receiving multiple error messages and loss of power on the accelerator. Shortly after the error messages began I was no longer to even start the vehicle. It needed to be towed to the dealer and eventually required a full engine replacement, and was out of service for 22 days. On 5/19/21 I was getting on the highway with my wife and 3 young children and began receiving many of the same error messages. The car was brought to the dealership the following day and I found out that this was another major engine issue. They need to order several parts, one of which is on backorder. As of 5/24 it has been out of service for an additional 5 days, bringing the total up to 27 days out of service, and there are currently 4800 miles on the car.

On April 3, 2021 at approximately 5:00pm, while driving on the highway through North Carolina (on a trip from Maryland to Florida) with my family of 5 (two adults and 3 young children, including my infant son) out of nowhere my brand new Tahoe began shaking uncontrollably and the engine starting popping and sputtering as if it were going to give out completely. This occurred on a very busy highway, where my vehicle was surrounded by many other vehicles driving at high rates of speed. It was a very frightening situation and I immediately exited the highway and stopped at the nearest safe location, which was a wendy's restaurant. At the time that this serious safety defect occurred, my brand new 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe rst, which I had owned for less than 6 months, had only 5334 miles on it. I contacted onstar and was told there were no issues detected and that I should "take it easy" and continue driving. The engine continued shaking and sputtering for about an hour and then stopped. We went to atlanta to meet with family and parked the car. The next morning when I went to start the car, it began shaking and sputtering again like the engine was going to blow and the electric panel on the car displayed a number of errors. I contacted onstar and was informed there was engine trouble and I should take the car to the nearest dealer. I still have not gotten my car back. I have initiated a lemon claim with GM but they have said there's a backlog and have no eta on when this issue is to be resolved. Meanwhile, my family is out of a vehicle and I am still paying a car note for an $80,000 brand new car that I do not have access to and that is too dangerous to drive. Something needs to be done about this as I've seen other reports of similar issues on the internet. Please help.
