2007 Chevrolet Tahoe problems
The Chevrolet Tahoe, and its badge-engineered GMC Yukon counterpart, are full-size SUVs and other trucks from General Motors, offered since 1994 and 1991, respectively. Since 1982, Chevrolet and GMC sold two different-sized SUVs under their "Blazer" and "Jimmy" nameplates, by introducing the smaller S-10 Blazer and GMC S-15 Jimmy for the 1983 model year, below the full-size Blazer and Jimmy models. This situation lasted into the early 1990s. GMC first rebadged the full-size Jimmy as the "Yukon" in 1991. Chevrolet however waited until 1994, when they rebadged the redesigned mid-size S-10 Blazer the "new Blazer," while renaming the full-size Blazer as the "Tahoe." The name Tahoe refers to the rugged and scenic area surrounding Lake Tahoe in the western United States, and was originally used as a trim level on S-10 models. The name Yukon refers to the Yukon territory of northern Canada.
For the 1995 model year, the Tahoe and Yukon gained a new, longer four-door model, slotting in size between the two-door models and the longer-wheelbase Chevrolet/GMC Suburbans.
The Tahoe is sold in North America, parts of Asia such as the Philippines, and the Middle East, plus other countries including Bolivia, Chile, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, and Angola as a left-hand-drive vehicle. The Yukon is only sold in North America and the Middle East.
The Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon are part of General Motors' full-size SUV family and are differentiated from the similar Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon XL primarily by the length of the passenger and cargo area behind the C-pillar. An upscale trim GMC Denali sub-model joined the Yukon lineup as the top-of-the-line trim for the 1999 model year; the Cadillac Escalade is a closely related upscale version sharing the same platform. The Denali is available on both standard and XL versions.
The Tahoe has regularly been the best-selling full-size SUV in the United States, frequently outselling its competition by two to one.

Common 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe problems
The 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe has been reported to have several common problems by its owners. These issues range from engine problems to dashboard cracking and excessive oil consumption.
One of the most severe and expensive problems reported is related to the engine. Many 2007 Chevy Tahoe owners have experienced engine knocking or pinging noises, which typically occur around 80,000 miles. This issue requires a brand-new engine, which can cost approximately $3,300 to fix.
Another significant issue with the 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe is the dashboard cracking. This problem is more common and severe than the engine issues, with cracks appearing on the dashboard around 70,000 miles. Although the repair cost is relatively low, around $210, the frequency and severity of this issue have earned it the title of the worst problem on the 2007 Tahoe by Car Complaints.
The 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe has also been associated with excessive oil consumption, particularly in the 5.3-liter Flex Fuel V8 due to the Active Fuel Management (AFM) system and the PCV valve in the valve cover. This system was designed to save gas during low power output, but it can cause the engine to consume more oil. Replacing the valve cover and gasket can fix the issue, but completely deactivating the AFM system may be necessary for a more permanent solution
Additionally, the 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe has experienced issues with the AC blend door, fuel pump, leaking exhaust manifold, evap code, daytime running light, and black plastics fading. These problems can affect the overall functionality and appearance of the vehicle, and some of them can be quite expensive to fix
In summary, the 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe has several common problems, including engine issues, dashboard cracking, excessive oil consumption, and various other mechanical and cosmetic problems. These issues can be costly and frequent, affecting the overall reliability and satisfaction of the vehicle's owners.

Finally got a message on the dash telling me to "service brakes soon" that would come and go. Eventually made it to our local Chevrolet dealer while the message was displayed for diagnostic purposes. Was told code "C0299" was found regarding brake booster pressure sensor performance. Vehicle was repaired by replacing the master cylinder and hydraulic brake booster. A large amount of brake fluid was found inside the booster upon disassembly. Obviously had been leaking brake fluid from the master cylinder into the brake booster for a long time. Saw that Ford had a recent recall for a similar problem and I thought it was worth reporting. I retained both the master cylinder and brake booster for inspection if needed. Fortunately no incidents occurred due to this part failure before replacement.

I have heard many complaints and and worries from others that feel it can catch on fire and would be a dangerous distraction driving the freeway while it starts to melt it is a strong obnoxious fume and smells like it an catch fire.

First this shouldn't happen, GM should own up to the issue and create a part that doesn't have the issue. Second they don't even have the existing part to fix the issue. I called a local dealership (Simi Valley Chevrolet) who wouldn't even give me the part numbers as they said it was against their policy to not give out part numbers. I don't know how a consumer is supposed to fix their vehicle with manufacturer who doesn't make a part any longer and a dealer who doesn't give the information to find another one.

Negative 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe car reviews
Positive 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe car reviews

This vehicle has been driven for 45000 miles and still runs great. It has excellent road manners despite its large and heavy build. The engine is strong and the vehicle feels solid. Even when fully loaded with people, gear, and a 4500LB boat attached, it hardly breaks a sweat on road trips over flat to hilly terrain. It is very sure-footed in all seasons, including snow and ice, even with factory tires close to replacement. GM has made great strides in closing the gap with foreign automakers with greatly improved interior design and looks. However, there is still work to be done as many surface finishes and materials (inside and out) do not do this vehicle justice. Although the 07 Tahoe looks high quality, cost-cutting is evident up close.

I love the 2007 Tahoe! The exterior is a head turner, and I've received lots of compliments from people in parking lots. The interior is much better than previous Tahoes - it's refined and sophisticated. The brakes are excellent, and it's a lot quieter inside than the old ones. I'm so pleased with my new purchase!

I hope you're doing well! I wanted to share my recent experience with the Chevy Tahoe. I recently upgraded from an '04 Suburban LT 4x4 to the LTZ 4x4 and I must say, there is no comparison. GM really hit the nail on the head with this one...the Tahoe is absolutely awesome! On my first tank of gas, I was able to get 17.3 mpg despite driving in stop-and-go traffic in Dallas. It was such a pleasure compared to the 13 mpg I was getting with my Suburban. Like many others, my only complaint is the rear cargo area. The permanent tracks for the 3rd row seats can be a bit annoying when the seats are removed, but there are so many more features that overshadow this minor issue. Overall, I think the Tahoe is a great SUV that rides like a luxury car!

I purchased my 2007 Tahoe when it was first released and unfortunately, I have experienced multiple issues with the DVD player, rear view mirror, door molding, power locks, and folding seats. The main issue that I have encountered is with the poor reception of the FM & XM radio. Despite having the Tahoe serviced three times for the radio, the problem persists. It is possible that the poor placement and engineering of the FM & XM antenna in the rear back glass is the root cause of the issue. The radio fades in and out when passing by power lines, trees, buildings, and drive-thru windows, which can be quite frustrating, especially considering that I paid more for the premium Bose system.

Are you having problems with your 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe?
Theo Schinner 2024-08-18
The vehicle rides well and has plenty of power for daily use. It also has decent fuel economy for its size and plenty of space for four passengers and groceries. However, it can be annoying to have to remove the third-row seats to get storage for large items. It would be great if GM could design one that folds flat. Unfortunately, the vehicle has had six batteries replaced in just two years and GM has yet to solve this mystery. Additionally, the dash has cracked in four places due to the plastic being too thin. Although GM stated that it was not a manufacturing defect and not their problem, it is still frustrating.

I'm glad I came across this website!It feels good to know that I'm not the only one who was obviously sold a lemon!!!For a minute, I thought maybe I was losing my mind in terms of the various things my car was going."Did my lights really just flicker on and off?""Did my car really just start popping out CD's, even though I didn't press eject?"I got my Tahoe in 2006 and began having issues with it around 2008.My lights would flash on/off, the doors would lock/unlock, it would sporadically shut down in the middle of the road, and now I'm having issues with it starting. Now that I finally have the car paid for, the traction issue has started....go figure.This car is CRAP!!!

This is the first vehicle my wife and I have purchased in 10 years, and unfortunately, we made a mistake by choosing a Chevy. Prior to this purchase, we had leased 7 new vehicles, which allowed us to turn them in if we encountered any problems or simply didn't like the vehicle. However, we have recently experienced a major issue with this Chevy, as it has completely died despite only having made two payments. Despite having had the vehicle for 10 days, the Chevy team has been unable to determine the cause of the problem. As a result, we have been left stranded an hour and a half from home, which is particularly concerning given that we have three small children who depend on this vehicle. Despite this setback, we remain confident that Chevy will be able to resolve the issue and get us back on the road soon.

This GM vehicle was poorly made and had numerous defects. My experience with Chevrolet Customer Service was unsatisfactory, as they blamed me for the issues instead of acknowledging the vehicle's faults. However, I am confident in my decision not to purchase another GM vehicle.

This vehicle drives okay, but it has many flaws. It would be a great vehicle if it were priced more in line with the quality. In my opinion, this is a great $25,000 vehicle, but it is nowhere near a $50,000 vehicle as sold. Unfortunately, I have had service lights on since the day I bought it, and neither the dealer nor GM could fix or compensate for them. Fuel mileage is not even close to what was estimated, which is disappointing. There is not much storage, and my 98 Grand Cherokee had much more room for storage. The tire wear is poor, and the air conditioning is intermittent without reason. Also, it is not advisable to listen to the radio without the engine running, or after 30-45 minutes, you will need a jump. Despite these issues, I miss my Jeep!
