“I WAS TURNING LEFT FROM THE FREEWAY FEEDER LIGHT THAT WAS ALREADY GREEN UPON APPROACH. ASSK I PASSED THE INTERSECTION, I COLIDED FROM ON DIRECTLY AT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE, IMPACTING THE REAR DRIVER SIDE OF A SMALLER VW ATALS. MY VEHICLE SPUN OUT OF CONTROL STOPPING AT THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION AT THE MEDIAN. MY AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. THE OTHER CAR INVOLVED WE HIT AT THE REAR DRIVER SIDE AND ALL HIS AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I HIT MY CHIN, HEAD, AND ARMS AND FEEL NASEAU SINCE THE ACCIDENT. AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED TO PREVENT MY HEAD FROM HITTING VARIOUS PARTS OF THE CAR OR WORSE BRAIN SHAKING. MY CAR SUSTAINED FRAME DAMAGE AND EXTENSIVE FRONT DAMAGE.”

“Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy after the purchase of the vehicle. The vehicle was an independent dealer sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 135,000. It was later discovered, upon checking with an OBD2 Scanner, that the mileage was 220,145. In addition, upon checking Carfax, the mileage was 134,426.”

“This is the date I first took the vehicle to a dealership. The Transmission has performed poorly and the wiper would not work at all and it was not a fuse problem. Transmission finally failed and had to be replaced (6/25) but car is in a dealership for the 3rd time for windshield wipers. They do not work so car is dangerous. You leave home with no rain and then there is rain and wipers sometimes worked, most of the times they did not. On 6/25 they would not address the issue as wipers worked in High speed (but only on high speed). 3 months later they did not work at all. It did not rain in LA so not concerned, but now it is. This is a serious system design flaw. The replaced complete wiper blade system, but The relays on the bottom of the fuse box control the wiper blades. I have the Z71 off-road package as I drive off-road and in snow conditions. This car was designed poorly as this is a 4x4 vehicle and moister should not effect the electrical system nor a safety device like the windshield wipers. This is a potential recall issue to properly fix the problem. Sadly the majority of vehicle owns just drive on the highway, but others have reported windshield wiper failures.”
