Description of the problem | My 2016 chevrolet tahoe ltz displayed "service front camera" when i got into the vehicle but didn't even start it yet. ( see pic) . I took it to the dealership they looked at it and told me yes its a known issue but gm has no repair procedure yet for it. The vehicle has 89 miles on it, have only had the vehicle for a couple of days. The windshield is perfectly clean and no obstructions of the front camera. The dealership said i will have to live with it until they have a fix for it. The problem is that the front camera runs most of the highly touted saftey features such as the, fca forward collision alert, lane deviation alert, ebs emergency braking system, and on and on...... So now the $70k+ vehicle that was hyped up to be sooo safe for my family now has most of the saftey features non -functioning and gm knew about this and still continues to sell the vehicle and wont repair. There are also many other electrical issues with this vehicle, but will notify in different report. This is terrible for a vehicle of this caliber. Im a loyal and dedicated past tahoe owner but this one may be going back. Im appalled that gm is letting vehicles continue to be sold with known saftey issues especially since they just got caught with the whole ignition switch fiasco. |
