1999 Chevrolet Tahoe Cruise Control Problems

THE IDIOTS ON THIS SITE HAS INJURED MY BRAIN AN THERE'S A SPEED CONTROL ISSUE NOT STOPPING THESE PEOPLE FROM MAKING STUPID COMPLAINTS GET A GRIP PEOPLE 90 PRECENT OF YOUR COMPLAINTS IS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR FIX IT FOR GOD SAKES IF NOT BUY A NEW VEHICLE BUT GUESS WHAT ITS GONNA BREAK DOWN TO. *TR

VEHICLE FAILS TO SLOW DOWN WHEN ACCELERATOR IS RELEASED. WHEN RELEASNG THE ACCELERATOR I NOTICE THAT TACHOMETER REMAINS AT THE SAME RPM. AT FIRST THIS TROUBLE WAS INTERMITTANT BUT HAS PROGRESSIVELY FAILED MORE OFTEN UNTIL NOW IT IS CONTINOUS. THE ONLY WAY TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN IS BY BRAKING USING THE VEHICLE'S BRAKES. WHEN THE ENGINE BRAKING WAS WORKING OK, ABOUT TWO SECONDS AFTER TAKING YOUR FOOT OF THE ACCELERATOR IT WOULD SLOW DOWN PROPERLY. I CONTACTED THE DEALER ON 2/22/2001 AND HE SUPPOSEDLY TOOK IT FOR A TEST RUN, HOWEVER, THE ODOMETER IN AND OUT WERE IDENTICAL, 26528 MILES. WHEN I CONTACTED THEM AGAIN, THEIR LATEST RESPONSE WAS THAT THEY ALL DO THAT AND THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO TO HAVE IT CORRECTED. I FEEL THAT IF THE PROBLEM IS NOT CORRECTED SHORTLY IT WILL CAUSE PREMATURE BRAKE FAILURE BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE BRAKING WHICH COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT.*AK

WHILE MERGING AND ACELERATING VEHICLE LOSES STEERING CONTROL, FORCING VEHICLE INTO A GUARDRAIL. MANUFACTURER NOTIFIED. FEEL FREE TO PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION ON THIS MATTER. *AK

WHEN TAKING FOOT OF GAS PEDAL VEHICLE WILL CONTINUE AT CURRENT SPEED WITHOUT SLOWING DOWN. IN ORDER TO SLOW VEHICLE DOWN, CONSUMER MUST APPLY BRAKES. WHEN CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP, THEY INSTALLED AN IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE WHICH CORRECTED THIS DEFECT FOR APPROXIMATELY 4,000 MILES. "CRUISE" DEFECT HAPPENED AGAIN, AND THE IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE WAS REPLACED BY A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP. AT 29,000 MILES, ENGINE WILL BACK DOWN APPROXIMATELY 5 TO 10 SECONDS AFTER THE CONSUMER REMOVES FOOT FROM GAS PEDAL. *AK THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND STATED THE CONDITION OF THE VEHICLE AS NORMAL. *YH

CRUISE CONTROL AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGED WITHOUT ANYONE ACTIVATING THE CRUISE CONTROL DEVICE, WHATEVER SPEED THAT WAS ACCELERATED TO WAS AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGED WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL, WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED THE CRUISE CONTROL DID NOT DISENGAGE AS IT SHOULD. *SLC

WHILE PULLING OUT FROM A PARKING LOT AT 15MPH AND WHEN PICKING AT SPEED AT 30 TO 40 MPH, VEHICLE ACCELERATED AT 40 MPH AND KEPT ACCELERATING. CONSUEMR APPLIED THE BRAKES, AND THE VEHICLE KEPT ACCELERATING. WHEN THE CONSUMER GOT TO A RED LIGHT, TURNED VEHICLE OFF, AND WHEN RESTARTING, VEHICLE DID'NT ACCELERATE. *AK

WHILE TRABELING ON HIGHWAY DEPRESSED THE GASS PEDAL, AND VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT INDICATIONS, ENGINE CHECK LIGHT CAME ON. DEALER HAS BEEN NOTIFIED, ALSO MANUFACTURER. *AK
