I have a 2008 Chevy Tahoe LTZ love it but hate little things that break. I have to take it in again for another door handle. This will be the second one that I need to replace and it feels like another will be breaking shortly. My bow tie on the front is no longer gold in color buy now black has leaked water in it since I got the Tahoe. There is 42,000 miles and I understand that things will go wrong but I feel that door handles and other part should not go bad and if they do Chevy should just replace and fix. Hope something can be done.

We have had similar problems with our Tahoe. We had the back passenger actuator go out in our car a year ago. Luckily our car was still under warranty so we got that fixed. The other three actuators started going out when we were barely out of warranty. Its so frustrating AND so expensive to fix! I will be emailing with our VIN and look forward for some help in this issue!

I would like to be contacted, I believe my warranty just ran out with only 24k on the odometer and the actuator went out today. I have already had 2 replaced under warranty. Thanks.

#171 of 748 Chevy Tahoe Door Lock Problem 2 by missmiss

I am also having the same problem with the lock system on the 2008 Chevy Tahoe. I have approximately 53,000 miles on it, which is of course out of warranty. I just got a call from the service department at the dealership with the price to fix it. It is ridiculous! I have only had this truck 3 years and already I will have to spent over $1200 in two months. The only explanation the service representative could give me, was I just had bad luck with this one. I have owned, an Ford Expedition and Jeep Liberty. By far this is the most worrisome vehicle I have owned. I am a responsible owner who meets maintence recommendations and service faithfully.

Having the same door locks issue...Had the left rear actuator replaced under warranty at 45k miles...Front Passenger door went out at 51k miles and not under warranty ($250 repair). Found this site and clearly this is a problem with the component. You would hope that GM would recognize and do something.
