Known issues on the 2013 Tahoe. Four recalls are recorded for this year. One covers a column lock that can allow the transmission to be moved out of Park with the key removed or the ignition off, and without the brake pedal applied. Another involves a chassis control module that can short internally and stall the vehicle. The remaining two concern a passenger inflator that can rupture on deployment, sending metal fragments toward the occupants.
