2009 Hybrid Misfire

[RDF]

We have a 2009 Tahoe Hybrid. Its been a good vehicle to date, but for the past year we have had intermittent cases of the check engine light going on, the engine stuttering when going up-hill, and the obligatory call to ONSTAR telling us we "have a misfire" and to "bring it into your local dealer" (big help).

The first two times, the dealer told us they could not recreate the problem or that it was "bad gas". It just happened again, and I'm about to go higher up to Chevy North America if I cannot get a reasonable answer.

Has anyone had this problem before? I've seen comments about misfires, but they were usually related to wires and / or bad plugs. Doesn't seem to be the case here.

Hi Rick,

You might want to ask over on this forum because there are a few more folks who might have experienced the same thing. http://www.greenhybrid.com/discuss/f69/

I found this thread over there, but I don't want to alarm you cause your situation might not be as dire: http://www.greenhybrid.com/discuss/f69/anyone-else-needed-new-6-0l-v8-23364/

Welcome to TYF.

when you say 'going higher up to Chevy North America.." who do you plan on contacting? I would like to know because I am having issues with my vehicle and have not seen any resolution after many trips to the dealer. Do you just contact customer service??? or maybe even BBB?
