The first problem was the cluster, it completely went off. I took it to a mechanic he said he fixed it. It works for one day then completely shut off again, I can not see what gear I am in, any alert that I need to see for warning and saftey completely off in the cluster.. Shortly after the first issue I noticed 2 cracks on my dashboard, on both driver and passenger side of the vehicle. I had not put a lot of thought into that as it didn-€™t seem like a safety concern up until I-€™ve read several post of others with same issue. ( I-€™m guessing a fire should be expected anytime because of others stories I have read off here the cracks have lead to fires ) Another issue is I have to add quart oil to my Tahoe atleast every 2 -3 weeks. I-€™ve taken it to have that fixed and each time was told there is no leak. I get the works done each oil change and still have to add oil 2 weeks after a new air filter oil etc.. a major issue that could have been a major wreck was While driving down a highway around 11 pm.. my car started flickering lights inside and outside of my tahoe and it started making a loud click sound saying system is shutting down, my steering wheel locked up and all power to vehicle completely shut down.period. No power to anything at all what so ever. The battery was fairly new. Well We had it towed back to town for a mechanic to look at the next day -€¦ he replaced the alternator and checked everything. Said he couldn-€™t see anythjng and told me I should sale it right away He warned me of a lot of issues he keeps seeing with Tahoe. Well now my driver door will not open at all I have to crawl through the passenger side door to get in and out of my car. With all these serious issues still going on I m very scared to be in my car, not getting my alerts and being trapped inside. Please someone point me in the right direction I have 5 kids this is not safe !
I have an airbag failure on my dashboard, the airbags are not working. On Saturday 11/21/2020 the driver side door kept saying door was open when it was entirely closed. Later on that morning, the passenger seat had cold ac while the rest of the car was throwing hot air on it's own. Because the car kept saying the passenger door was open, inside lights did not turned on. Replaced the door module and issue not fixed. Battery drains at least twice a day. Had to replace the engine oil pressure sensor multiple times and it still goes off randomly while driving and fix itself. This car it's used only to drive less than 10 miles per week. It is so annoying wiht this issue just to get it out and back home. I replaced the battery, alternator, oil pressure sensor, pasanger door sensor, ac filters all this in less than 1 year and it's one thing after another. Very disappointed.
On June 4, 2020 I had NY front window broken I took it to change the front glass and the cut of the viper alarm I had on the car so the alarm was just turning on and on I try to turn it on to see if it would stop and it didn't so I decided to take off the positive cable from the battery to see if taking it off it would stop and it didn't so I put back on and try to start the car and it didn't nothing dead just the lights of the check engine stabilitrak and traction and until this date can find what to do with it I change the fuse box and still don't turn on.
Crack in the dash on drivers side. Interior door handles have caused cuts to hands. Service battery charging system light continues to come on. I have had the car serviced & mechanics can not locate the issue. Seems to be an electrical malfunction.

While driving it he vehicle it shuts off, all of the gauges go to zero the power steering goes out and I am no longer able to accelerate until I restart the car. The lights inside and out go off and on. The doors lock and unlock continuously, . in the past year this has happened 3 or 4 times.
I was stopped at a stop sign when all the lights on the dashboard went out and smoke started coming out of the ignition switch. I turned the vehicle off and removed the key. The smoke stopped but the dashboard started making weird ticking noises.
I just bought this 07 Chevy Tahoe before 3 months ago, the problems start one by one, when the weather start hot the dashboard broken, dic light dead and rnd123 light too, now the GM dealer want more than a $500 to fix the cluster, I checked online and I found thousands of GM owners they have same problem, why GM don't do a recall on the message center light and the dashboard.
The display cluster in dash has quit working, driver information center is completely out and the prnd is barely visible. Seems to be a common occurrence on 2007 year model Chevrolet Tahoe.
