Emerging complaint spikes

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.

This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.

No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.

Equal-age model-year comparison

Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.

I HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON A 2008 CHEVY TAHOE HYBRID. I WAS ON THE WAY TO THE DEALER WHEN THE ENGINE MOVED TO ALMOST WIDE OPEN THROTTLE. I TRIED TO STOP THE VEHICLE WITH THE BRAKES BUT THE POWER OF THE VEHICLE WAS TOO MUCH. I MOVED INTO THE CENTER TURN LANE TO NOT HIT ANYONE AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL. THE THROTTLE WAS STILL ALMOST WOT. I WAS LESS THAN A HALF MILE FROM THE DEALER WHEN THIS OCCURED. THE VEHICLE LURCHED INTO THE DEALERSHIP PARKING LOT WITH THE SMELL OF BURNING BRAKES. I ASKED THE TECHNICIAN TO COME OUTSIDE. HE NOTI…

POWER BRAKES FAILED ON THIS HYBRID VEHICLE. THE DEALER SAYS THE POWER BRAKES CAN FAIL IF THE HYBRID BATTERY PACK LOSES POWER. THE BRAKES CONTINUED NOT TO WORK UNTIL IT WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER, AND THEY RESET THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. THEY SAID THEY DON'T KNOW IF OR WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO PREVENT IT. THEY SAID IF THE BRAKES FAIL TWO MORE TIMES WE COULD USE THE LEMON LAW TO DEAL WITH THE PROBLEM. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, ANY SLIGHT TURN OF THE WHEEL STAYS IN RATHER THAN TRACKING BACK TO CENTER. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS NORMAL FOR THE ELECTRIC ASSISTED POWER STEERING, HOWEVER I HAVE NOT NOTICED IT IN OTHER ELECTRIC VEHICLES. IT PRESENTS A SERIOUS HAZARD AS MOST IF NOT ALL DRIVERS ARE ACCUSTOMED TO A STEERING WHEEL WHICH TRACKS BACK TO CENTER WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS "BUMPED" SLIGHTLY OR WHEN MAKING A FULL TURN AS IN INTERSECTION TURNS. THE WHEEL IN A 90 DEGREE TURN WILL BEGIN TO TRACK BACK TO CENTER BUT STOPS SHORT OF IT. A POWER STE…
