I have had this vehicle for 2 years and it has been in the shop more than my driveway and every time I get it fixed something else breaks I have put more money in this vehicle in 2 years than I have any car I've ever owned and I had a car for 14 years and when I got rid of it they drove it away no problem and there wasn't a light on and the inside looked like brand new and everything worked. I have reported this to the National Highway Traffic Safety Association twice for all the issues I've had there all well known online. I found out after I bought it , it has a well known oil issue but no recall so I replaced the valve cover suppose to help with the issue it don't it fowls out the number 1 plug all the time because of the oil issue I have to constantly check the oil to make sure its not low , My spider gear in the rear end shredded had to have that rebuilt another known issue no recall is nobody complaining to the National Highway Traffic Safety Association, Also another problem well known in 6.0 Motors a collapsed lifter crazy expensive to fix again should be a recall right now my check engine light is on again back hatch wont open my clock wont work my passenger doors wont lock with the button or remote I replaced the oil sending unit and sensor the back wiper motor and several other things Please if anyone is having these issues report them to the website I named above Chevy said if they issue recalls I can at least file for reimbursement which I totally deserve I cant even trade it in because all the dealers know about the oil issue so I'm stuck with it and still paying on it and cant afford another car payment to buy something else Chevy needs to step it up there not making vehicles like they used too I shouldn't be having all these issues, my husband has an 2005 chevy truck that has over 250,000 miles on it and its his daily work driver , my brothers truck is a 2006 and he has over 350,000 miles on it and neither one of them has had the issues I've had in 2 years with this 2008

Tahoe Hybrid - Broken 6L V8 Motor at 130K

Bought a 2010 Tahoe Hybrid (3rd Car), with 130K Miles and the 6.0L V*- Drive it for 3000K miles and the motor broke. Cylinder 1 & 6 have no compression, lifters collapsed. I never buy American cars and this ordeal is my reminder as to why. The trucks body and interior were immaculate, now I've got to find a replacement motor. I cannot believe the Junk American Car Companies put out. German and Japanese have our Auto Makers beat 10 fold. Real shame we haven't learned how to build a car with longevity

Major Disappointment

My hybrid stinks - Gas mileage is 16 MPG - Intermittent noise under hood that GM says cannot be fixed - been in shop over 45 days now. GM District Service Manager basically called me a liar & told me the cars simply not broke in yet & I'm buying cheap gas at Shell. GM refuses to repurchase the vehicle & refuses to fix the problem because the noise is intermittent. Factory couldn't even test Hybrid Component to see if that's the problem! After being bullied by GM probably won't buy another GM vehicle! New technology not always great!

This car has performed to all expectations. We tow a large ski boat with absolutely no problems and still hold to abut 14 mpg. Regular driving holds around 23 mpg. We have had very few issues in the past year and a half. Power door lock and two recalls. I was apparently one of the first to purchase the vehicle in the area so one or two recalls was normal. Only improvements that had to be done was additional headrest monitors, tranny cooler and removing of the hybrid decals. This car was worth every penny and save me a lot in gas compared to my old Tahoe.
OK

Pretty slow. Saves gas though. Worth the 50 k in the long run. Not really into the whole green movement but this car is really nice.
