Why is it that you think someone should compensate you for 'being immobilized'?

Thanks for responding quickly. I am totally exhausted. I was not thinking of being compensated. Aren't they supposed to offer a loaner car or something? This is my first time to be in this situation with a leased truck.
Any reports of similar problems with their 07 Suburban?

Leasing is just one other financing arrangement. You can:
- pay cash (and the dealership gets its' cash for the car, or
- you can take out a loan with someone and you own the car when the payments are over (and the dealership gets its' cash for the car), or
- you can find someone to do a lease with and whomever wrote the lease owns the car when the payments are over (and the dealership gets its' cash for the car).
 
You deal with the service department on any problems the vehicle has. You get in the same service queue as everyone else, but actually the scheduled committed services are usually done first and any non-planned service (like you) get worked in if/when they can.
 
I've dealt with all kinds of service departments over the years. Some have loaner cars which they give out, some have rentals which you can rent if you need, others have a delivery van which they'll drive you back home for no charge, others have no benny services whatsoever.
 
If you get all your maintenance, oil changes, state inspections, tire rotations etc done with them, then they try to help you out more than someone who just drives/tows in off the street.
 
I have an '07, and other than the wiper heater cable recall....... have not had a single problem with it (knock on wood).

Radio/Nav/AC Bezel Removal by gregpet

I have a 2007 Tahoe with about 40k miles (just out of warranty!) and would like to remove the bezel (plastic woodgrain piece) that surrounds the radio/nav & AC controls. A barely noticable but very annoying crackle has started and it sounds like it's coming from behind the bezel. I'm thinking maybe a screw has become a little lose which is causing the noise. I would like to get in behind and just tighten everything down...
 
Has anyone had any experience removing this piece? Are there any removal instructions out on the web? It's a pretty tight fit so I don't want to just start prying on it and see if it pops off. Maybe there is a special tool??
 
Any help would be appreciated...
 
Thanks,
 
Greg

The bezal on my 07 Suburban Z71 just pops off... it takes quite a lot of force but it doesn't have any screws in it.. I used 2 plastic spatulas to slide carefully in behind it and pull it off... It feels like it will break but it didn't. It really takes a lot of pull to pop it off !!
Don't know what could be loose but being what it is today... it could be anything.
Goodluck !!

You can find videos showing hoe to install nav unlocks. These videos show ho to open the radio panel.

Hello,
 
I hope you can help me. I have a 2007 Tahoe and I am desperately trying to find a 12V ignition switched wire that I can hook a GPS up to. I read a previous post you made way back in 2006. Where you stated "Also, the single orange wire is a 12V ignition switched source the customer can use for various accessories like a radar detector. Switch 1 on the DIP switch must be turned on to enable this feature. I spent several hours trying to find a switched 12V on my Denali, so this is a nice feature."
 
Where is this orange wire and what DIP switch do I need to move?

Would something like the dual fuse holder (see the URL below) work for you? There may be circuit design change from the 2006 to 2007 models... Hope this will work rather than having to change the DIP switch setting.

The rear view mirror connector has a switched +12V and ground. Google "Invisicord" which makes cables for radar detectors and shows which pins to use.
