The 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe has 3 recalls, the most serious being a passenger-side front airbag inflator that can explode and send sharp metal fragments into the cabin, posing a risk of serious injury or death.
The airbag inflator concern applies to vehicles originally sold or registered in certain states, and prior repair attempts may not have fully resolved the issue for all affected vehicles. There is also an electrical recall affecting Tahoes equipped with Sure Power-brand battery equalizers or DC-DC converters, where a sealing compound inside the unit can become electrically conductive, melt, and catch fire.
