Used 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV Consumer Reviews
Not perfect
Bought one few months ago LT option, one below the Premier version, was told it comes with GPS maps, turns out I need to connect the phone to get it. The worst experience when you pay so much money just to find out you were cheated. Contacted customer service in the region (middle east) and US too, but they didn't really care, only apologise for the experience and referring me back to the dealer. The only offer they made is to pay more money and get the Premium version, instead of refunding my money. The head office customer service abandoned me and didn't take a firm stand with the dealer to show people they do care and will not allow anyone to be cheated. I spent nearly a month after that hardly driving the car, really hated it, until I had no choice to start driving it to go to work . With regards to GPS maps, sometimes it connects right away, and some time it never works. If it does connect, then I might still get stuck if the signal goes bad. Putting aside the dealer and GPS/phone connection matter, I like the leather and options, not too fond of auto stop feature, it keeps worrying me I will loose my starter sooner than later. On the cooler box that is built inside the centre console, I wonder if they ever tested it before implementing the design in the production line. I have never seen a fridge or freezer without a fan except in the chevy, which makes it very ineffective. Toyota Land cruiser cooler box if amazing, only 15 minutes driving and water bottles become too cold to drink. Here, 30 minutes and all you get are cool box walls only. Hardly any cooling inside the box. I bought a small USB fan and dropped it inside the box to move the air around, and only then I saw little improvement. Second row seat power folding is nice, but very loud, makes me think that something broke every time. 3rd row seats are comfortable, actually this was the main reason for buying the car, the size of 3rd row seats, otherwise I would never sell or go away from land cruiser cars, they are very reliable and comfortable.
Total Let Down
We have driven a Chevy Suburban/Tahoe over 1 million miles since 1992...NEVER had a major problem until we purchased our 2021 Tahoe - Premium. 6500 miles and transmission's first 3 gears fried out...the dealership order parts and both times the parts came in defective; finally "ok'd" a new transmission - 5 weeks in the shop...drove the car for 1 week - in town driving conditions - and the car stared clanking ever time the car attempt to shift gears, the lifter arms in the engine are bent or defective...back to the shop, I now know the techs and service advisor by their first names...sad...the quality that Chevy is building and selling to their customers is a sad commentary for a once proud brand...

2021 Chevy Tahoe - an Obese Hog
Drove the new 2021 Tahoe when it came out. Too big, too heavy, and it's a gas hog. If Chevrolet insists on making it an obese hog, at least make a two door version for people that don't need a junior locomotive.
