No but Tahoes have their fair share of issues right now. The one I was driving had 2 issues in the first 150 miles. Service Restraint System warning going on and off intermittently and the check engine light came on this morning. We've also had a couple with the rear liftgate not operating correctly.

Great vehicles but GM's QC sucks right now.

Just blame it on the beer virus, that's one everyone else does

It's been tough just getting license plates for cars this year, let alone a car. The DMV has been absolutely ridiculous to deal with. I finally got one tag mailed to me with the sticker that said "no sticker" There was no date on it. Still waiting on a real sticker to get here. It's now 2 weeks past due and we are still driving the car.
Yep, they blamed it on the beer virus

Similar deal with dad. Can't go in the DMV without an appointment and they are booked till the end of November. LOL that doesn't work when your tags expired at the end of August and they didn't send the correct stuff in the mail. Oh but wait, if you pay an extra $10 they'll get you in right now. Yeah no kidding. So they actually have openings right now but you have to pay extra. It's like a legal form of extortion.

You guessed it, blaming all this on the beer virus. So when I get pulled over I'm just going to tell the cop the same thing lol

I heard today there is a paint problem with 2021 Tahoe and Suburbans. Something about bugs in the clear coat GM is dealing with? Bill

I did find 2 places on the roof that looked like a fair sized fish eye. I wasnt too concerned about them where they were but not seen that on any of the trucks I have bought

When production started, GM used the old naval air station in Grand Prairie as an overflow storage lot while Tahoes/Yukons were going through initial QC. There was a mayfly infestation at the naval yard and millions of them landed on and mated on the Tahoes/Yukons that were waiting there. Many of them had to be clayed and buffed. Some were bad enough that they needed to be repainted.

We received one Z71 Tahoe that was there during all of this. I could tell it had been buffed on but it looked ok. It was black so it was easy to tell.
