Buying a used 2020 Chevrolet Tahoe? Check these 3 recalls first
Three recalls: a critical fuel pump leak with fire risk, a steering issue where the vehicle may suddenly pull to one side, and possibly defective Continental tires. Notably, the fire-risk recall carries no park-outside or stop-driving instruction. Complaint volume is comparatively modest at 55 unverified reports to NHTSA, but they include 4 crashes and 8 injuries; power train, engine, electrical system and service brakes are the leading categories.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Confirm the fuel pump recall was performed; check for any fuel smell
- Check tire brand and DOT date codes against the Continental tire recall
- Watch for pulling to one side while driving straight and under braking
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Chevrolet dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
