1999 Chevrolet Tahoe LE review from North America
"Dangerous lemon!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Purchased the Tahoe in Aug 2002 w/23K miles. At 46K things started to unravel. Fuel pump, intake manifold, thermostat, brakes (2x), even the radiator--all these items have had to be replaced! Also, some kind of sensor that was located in the steering wheel had to be replaced because I would suddenly lose control, although briefly, while turning both to the left & right and on curves -very dangerous! Today, I'm driving down the road & when I started off at a red light, it didn't want to change gears (it is auto) You guessed it-transmission now needs replacing. I drive the car very easy-only work (4 miles RT) church, grocery store. It is well maintained and it is most definitely a major LEMON. PLEASE DON'T BUY ONE!!It will cost you more than it's worth.
