A 10 day repair took 3 days to complete and monies are due. Help what to do i am waiting for a response on my case and I really need my suburban back (only family car). Help
Thanks

*Edit - I'm glad this is a recent forum and not a bunch of posts from 3 years ago.....
I apologize for the problems you are experiencing with your vehicle. Please keep me posted on any information from the dealership or when the problem has been taken care of.
Thank you,
Caron, GM Customer Service
Took it back to the USED CAR dealer and they told me they would fix it. Gave me a 2010 Toyota Corola as a loaner too. Know this wont be much help to most, but I guess know your dealer?
Bought the car May 31 and they have replaced the brakes (Midas quoted me at $2800) and now the transmission ($2500-$3500).
Would be willing to share the dealer, but I'm not going to advertise for them. Will respond to a PM though, dealer is in Alaska...... :sick:
It's not like you guys have a lot of choice, if you stick with dealers.
A few months bought a 2003 Chevy Tahoe with 130,000 miles on it, and though it was meticulously maintained and am a little concerned. Recently I have noticed that in the morning when the vehicle isnt warmed up I am getting a hard shift when i start to drive more than 10 miles an hour. It only lasts about 10 minutes, and is only when i am initially accelerating, but I am a college student, and cant afford a major repair, so if its something simple or if anyone has had a similar issue please let me know. Thanks guys.
My truck did the same thing in the mornings and had to warm up for 5-8 minutes to avoid the hard shifts. Happened only in the winter time though.
Let me know if that works for you. Apparently others have reported success
Usually drive in 2WD and almost entirely highway mileage around 70mph. Any thoughts, suggestions? Can I drive in 4WD indefinitely? Another O2 sensor to change? There are 4 total.">
The only thing my husband says he did not replace was the shift plate, but now he believes one or two of the bebe's where little worn...could this be the culprit? I have already even with their help spent a fortune to fix this Tahoe with 3 kids and trying to get a degree I have already exhausted our $$ I get 10 different opinions from transmission shops all with huge $$tags. Please help
Have you considered getting this diagnosed at your servicing dealership? Is there anyway we can help? Let us know – email Christina here with more information (name, VIN, contact info, dealership).

I also checked out this website and it kind of leads me to believe the O2 sensor is the cause, but my friend who is a mechanic says more than likely it's something else.
I love the Tahoe and I really don't want to move to anything else. So i'm praying it's something simple

I oddly did the very same, traded my old RC for a 2000 Tahoe with 61,000 miles.
Now I too, have 78,000 miles on it and having tranny trouble. I thought it would a be a more reliable truck to take my son in vs and on old 82 Dodge. Guess I'm wrong.
I'm worried to drive it other then to work. I had to leave it along the road and walk the other day. The engine will rev and the rpms will go up but the truck wont move or wont shift. I have it in the shop where I work for the 3rd time. I had the tranny flushed last year. I like to keep this truck nice and very good about maintaining it.
THe tranny isn't making noise but it just wont go all time.
What have you all been finding or done for help?
Anything short of driving it until it goes no more and trying to pay for a new tranny or just buy a bicycle?
I just purchased a 2007 Chevrolet suburban in June with 72,000 miles on it. 1 month later my transmission went out. They covered it and put in a "rebuilt" transmission...no problems since...knock on wood. A week after I bought it though it felt funny when I would take a right hand turn. I took it in and they said nothing was wrong. I just put new tires on it and I just noticed I can feel the right tire rubbing on something when I turn right. The tire people said my right front tire wore unevenly and the inner tire had steel threads coming out of it. I am currently losing oil somehow and I am sure that is not a good thing. I was never a Chevy person but my boyfriend convinced me to buy it. I think next time I might try something else...very frustrating!
