Well GM customer service just told me they can't help me bc my vehicle has 83,000 miles I said that's not a lot of miles and had it been an 08 it wud be covered so don't imply 83,000 miles is a lot so I'm waiting to speak to a supervisor because the rep said they're not helping me at all.

Did your dealership talk to GM?
 
My dealership was able to get the 50% for me originally and have GM pay for the diagnosis. I tried to get more but came up empty.
If the dealership you are working with is unwilling to go to bat for you then go to another dealership until you find one that is willing to work for you.
 
I also wrote a letter to GM's corporate office's to the top the President, Chairman etc. They won't read it but there minions will and they have more pull than the drone on the phone.
 
Just stick to the facts. Keep it simple and to the point. Be very business like.
 
Good luck.

Hi wykeema,
 
I can certainly understand your frustrations. While I cannot promise a different resolution at this point, I would like to review your case file. Can you send me a private message with you full name and VIN please? My email is socialmediagm.com "attn Crystal" in the subject header.

Well I just learned that bc I wasn't fortunate enough to buy the Tahoe new even though it only had 53,000 miles so I figured it was close to new (wit most cars able to go 200,000 miles) and even though I still paid almost 30,000 and am still paying for it then I'm out of luck. I said well owners who have bought the car new are having the same problems so it's the design not anything anybody is doing. They told me its probly not true and people lie I said well why would people waste their time lying about the same issue like no one has things to do besides make up lies on the Internet . They said they dnt think they can help and if so maybe 20-30%. That's why they needed bailout money bc they dnt stand bhnd their products flaws and have lost many a customer.

It's not the dealership who is saying this it's GM s representative. I called the dealership myself bc I was wondering what they told the rep for thm to tell me no assistance all bc they implied the dealership made it like it was the condition of the car. Well the service manager said all I told them was a break down needs to be done first before a positive diagnosis will be made even though they felt it was the cam n lifters. So then I talk to a supervisor who changes the story to its bc I didn't buy the car new n they may get the dealership to do 20-30% after I pay for breakdown. 20-30% on engine work on a car that had 53,000 and that still cost almost 30,000, which is a brand new terrain, Acadia as well as others. I passed those up for my Tahoe bc that's what I always wanted, but I guess to bad for me I couldn't get it brand new.

Well...I just had a new engine put in and a new transmission (at the expense of my extended warranty) because of oil consumption issue and a tranny pump. I have 90,000 miles and its an 07 suburban. I initially took it in because upon acceleration the idle would jump and the truck would sputter...guess what, it's still doing it!!!!! Took it back to Chevy two days later and now I'm being told it "feels" like an injector but because its not throwing a code...there's nothing they can do. W T F

It's crazy that Chevy hasn't recalled these vehicles but of course it would cost too much, I would've never thought I would be having these kinds of problems with an 07 Tahoe. I really thought that it was a top of the line vehicle interestingly enough you don't find out about issues until you buy one and end up on these forums.

#156 of 158 Class Action Suit - 2007 Chevy Tahoe - Stabilitrak, Oil Consumption, Wheel by 1before40

May 08, 2013 (12:42 pm)

I have spoken with the Attorney General's office here in WV and there are a couple of options in taking legal action against GM. The first step is for each owner to file a complaint with the attorney general of your state, so the complaint is registered and on file. Most states can file the complaint on the phone, online or a traditional paper filing. I am filing the traditional paper filing to have copies available to circulate as needed as the complaint works through the system. After filing with the Attorneys General, the next step is to find a law firm to represent the group and file suit. There are a couple of law firms here in WV, that I will contact in the next couple of days and go from there.
