Bad radio/ bluetooth

The only problem that I keep having is the radio and bluetooth do not work together. I was traveling in a rain storm traveling through the mountains when the radio including the mapping system went black and never came back on until the next day. I was able to call my husband and he talked me in to our land. On our trip down to Florida from Tennessee due to the hurricane, my radio mapping went black again as soon as I answered the phone. It came back after getting off the phone. Towards the end of the trip, the bluetooth stopped working with my iPhone. I could not call out while being tethered/ plugged into the vehicle.

Research before you buy. We rented the model we wanted for a week and put some miles on it. We haven't owned the Tahoe long enough for a indepth review. What we have learned is the audio system has issues like ,when listening through USB and a device and driving on a ruff road the music will skip like a CD would and the system is more complicated then it should be. I haven't towed anything yet but the outside mirrors seem like they're a little smallish compared to the 2014 model. The one we rented had both of the wires that attach to the rear window defogger broken. When you open the rear window on a Tahoe you will see the bad design. Lastly the biggest problem is that you have to learn how to use the gas pedal to accelerate smoothly. I get the complaints about how the transmission can be jumpy/jerky.

Get multiple bids and make the dealers fight for your business. Don't settle for the first price they throw out.

Too many vehicle failures

Ok...32000 miles and the mag lev shocks failed, costing.....ready for this? 1000.00 a piece! Following week, A/C compressor! The Radio navigator had to be replaced, the car battery failed, the rear hatch motor failed...The Mountainview Chervrolet dealership in Upland Ca. is not competitive, very expensive! 580.00 for an oil change, fuel injection service and cabin filter! And they don't put all your parts back on when they service! Still waiting for bumper pads on the rear hatch they lost a year ago!!! Now I've owned over 6 Tahoe's and believe me..I'M DONE BUYING GM PRODUCTS! Never buy a Tahoe!!!

Purchased Certified pre owned Tahoe. Fuel injectors replaced after 10k miles injector 5 and 6 replaced and repaired under warranty. Master Brake cylinder replaced - repaired under warranty. AC Belt broke at 44k miles. Repair from dealer pricey. Parts are double in price through dealer vs amazon. I would recommend leasing these vehicles. Too many issues for long term. Pros: Amazingly comfortable vehicle I owned.
