2008 Tahoe LTZ needs Shocks and Struts
#11
Just got an email from some guy in GM customer service and since the d'bag at the dealership I went to yesterday was such a jerk to me, I told this guy that I was not interested in bringing my vehicle back to them to get it fixed. He told me I had to have the dealership that I want to use actually diagnose the problem. I've got over $200 sunk in to diagnosing that the F%$#@*& door actuators are broken and he wants me to spend more?????
I just sent him an email explaining that they need to accept the documentation I have from the dealership yesterday as golden and I also went on to explain all the other issues this POS has had. Worst $56K I've ever spent...

They gave in and my Tahoe is at the dealer I prefer getting all 4 actuators replaced free of charge!
New shocks and struts were installed last week to the tune of just over $1,000.
Couple weeks ago, I thought I was going to have to put about $3,000-$4,000 into this POS but it only cost me $1,000. So, I'm satisfied. For now.

Hi, Your local repair shop should have no problem installing the Arnott replacement's for your Tahoe. They will be able to buy our parts from WorldPac or parts stores such as O'Rielly or Advanced Auto Parts. The kits come complete with instructions but you can look at our parts and download the manuals here: CHEVROLET - Tahoe 1500 2000-2006 (4x2, 4x4) w/ Autoride Suspension
Regards,
Doug

actuators
3 of my 4 door lock actuators failed under warranty.
I'm now out of warranty, but you can be damn sure I won't pay to replace the 4th...
worst $55k i've ever spent GM is ****, flat out ****. I'll never buy another. heck, I'll never even buy 'american' again. all of it's junk.
I haven't had time yet, but I still plan to plaster a huge "GM SUCKS ASK ME WHY" sticker on the back of my Tahoe.
it also appears GMSucks.com is available...
