2000 Chevrolet Tahoe

Certain vehicles located in Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland & Labrador may experience unwanted Antilock Brake System (ABS) activation and increased stopping distances during low-speed brake application (less than 16 km/h and greater than 6 km/h).  This condition does not set any ABS codes nor does it illuminate the ABS warning lamp.  Correction: Dealers will remove the wheel speed sensor and thoroughly clean the wheel speed sensor mounting surface on the bearing, apply Zinc-X to the cleaned surface, grease the mounting surface, reinstall the wheel speed sensor, and check the output voltage to ensure the wheel speed signal is within specifications.

Certain vehicles equipped with rearward folding head restraints on the second row seats.  Two potential pinch points exist on each of the folding head restraints when the head restraint(s) are folded rearward as the seatback is folded down.  If a person were to insert their finger(s) into the pinch point when the head restraint folds, it could trap and pinch the finger(s) causing injury.  Correction:  Dealers will install protective covers over the pinch points.

Certain vehicles have an air bag sensing diagnostic module (SDM) which contains an anomaly that could result in the driver and passenger's air bag failing to deploy during certain frontal collisions. In a vehicle crash, front seat occupants may receive more severe injuries. Correction: Dealers will recalibrate the SDM.

Certain vehicles may have loose or missing rear wheelhouse plugs. Under certain operating conditions, exhaust gases can flow forward and accumulate in the rear wheelhouse. These exhaust gases could flow into the passenger compartment if the wheelhouse plug is missing or loose and may cause possible illness, unconsciousness or death.  Correction:  Dealers will inspect for loose or missing wheelhouse plugs, and install new plugs if necessary.

On certain vehicles, the body cross sill may contact the front, right-hand brake pipe. This could eventually wear a hole in the brake pipe over the normal life of the vehicle and result in a brake fluid leak.  This could ultimately result in a partial brake system failure and increased stopping distances.  Correction:  Dealers will inspect for brake pipe wear and replace worn section if necessary.  A spacer clip will be installed to ensure adequate clearance.
