SUSPENSION
BEFORE WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, WE NOTICED THE RUMBLE IN IT, THE DEALERSHIP ASSURED US IT WOULD BE FIXED WHEN WE PICKED IT UP . UPON DRIVING IT FOR A DAY OR SO WE REALIZED THE RUMBLE WAS STILL THERE. WE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOOK IT BACK IN TO CHECK IT. COULD NOT FIND THE PROBELM, THEY CONTACTED GM. AS OF YET NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT RUMBLES AT EVERY STOP. WE HAVE CALLED CHEVROLET, BUT THEY OFFER VERY LITTLE IN ANSWERS. WE DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM OR IF OURS IS VEHICLE IS JUST A FLUKE.*AK
