2023 CHEVROLET TAHOE
Filed Aug 25, 2026

I purchased this vehicle for approximately $82,000 and brought it to Kunes Chevrolet in Lake Geneva multiple times for scheduled maintenance. During my first visit after learning of the recall involving potential connecting rod and crankshaft defects, I specifically asked when my vehicle would be inspected and repaired. I was repeatedly told that I would receive additional…

2018 CHEVROLET EQUINOX
Filed Aug 25, 2026
In my chevy equinox 2018 my vacuum pump and brake booster failed when I was driving and I could not brake.

Now this is a major financial hardship on me to fix this issue that should have not happened if it got recalled to fix this issue on this certain model. No lights, no indicator lights or anything came on…
