SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE AVOIDING ANOTHER VEHICLE I APPLIED MY BRAKES SUDDENLY. THE BAKE LIKE CONNECTING THE ABS UNIT AND THE REAR BRAKES FAILED DUE TO CORROSION/RUST THAT WAS NOT OBSERVABLE DUE TO THE LINE BEING RAN BETWEEN THE VEHICLES FRAME AND BODY AND GAS TANK. ALTHOUGH THIS LOCATION MIGHT HAVE MADE FOR EASY MANUFACTURING IT HAS LED TO THE LINE BEING IN A LOCATION THAT CANNOT BE VISUALLY INSPECTED TO PREVENT DANGEROUS CONDITIONS FROM BUILDING UP FROM LACK OF AWARENESS. .

POWER TRAIN, WHEELS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE A 2015 SUBURBAN WHICH HAD ISSUES FROM DAY WHEN MY SUV CUT OFF AND WOULDN'T START BECAUSE OF A FAULTY BATTERY. IT HAD LESS THAN 100 MILES ON IT. IT HAD NUMEROUS RECALLS, I'M ON MY 3RD SET OF TIRES 275/55/20 CROSS CONTACT ECO WHICH YOU ONLY GET 25000 MILES IF BEST. MY ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM HAD TO BE REPLACE BEFORE I HAD 20000 MILES. THE VIBRATION IS ANNOYING AND I'VE CHANGED MY TIRES AGAIN AND IT'S STILL VIBRANTING. AFTER READING OTHER COMPLAINTS I NOW REALIZE I' WASN'T GOING CRAZY WITH THE DIZZINESS.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE DASHBOARD CRACKED ON TWO LOCATIONS ON THE 2010 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN LTZ. ONE CRACK IS OVER THE DRIVER'S SIDE/STEERING COLUMN WHICH CONTINUES TO GROW. THE OTHER CRACK IS LOCATED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND GOES DIRECTLY INTO THE AIRBAG. THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH OTHER REPORTINGS ON THE INTERNET OF FELLOW CHEVY SUBURBAN OWNERS. MY CAR IS STORED IN MY GARAGE ALL DAY AND IS NOT SITTING IN THE SUN ALL DAY NOR HAS THE CAR EVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. CHEVY HAS NO EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THIS HAPPENS - JUST THAT THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO AT LEAST PAY FOR 1/2 OR THE COST OF THE NEW DASHBOARD. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR AND STATED THAT I HEARD A RATTLING FROM THE DASHBOARD; ASKED IF THEY COULD ENSURE THAT THE DASH WAS SECURE. WHEN I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE THEY STATED THE DASH WAS FINE. THE RATTLING CONTINUED FOR MONTHS. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS, I NOTICED THE CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. SEVERAL WEEKS LATER, I NOTICED THE CRACK ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. THE DEALERSHIP NOR CHEVY WILL ASSIST WITH THIS ISSUE.

SUSPENSION, WHEELS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE A MONTH AGO AND ALREADY RECEIVED A RECALL FOR THE SOFTWARE AIRBAG ISSUE. I TRADED MY 2010 CHEVY SUBURBAN FOR THIS NEW ONE AND HAVE NOTICED THAT THE MOMENT I GET ONTO THE FREEWAY AND START TO ACCELERATE THE CAR STARTS TO VIBRATE SO BAD THAT ANYTHING IN THE MIDDLE CONSOLE STARTS TO RATTLE AND THE CONSOLE WILL SPILL ANY DRINKS SITTING THERE IN THE CUPHOLDERS. I HAVE OWNED CHEVY VEHICLES ALL MY LIFE AND AM VERY ANNOYED THAT THIS IS HAPPENING. SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG. I ALSO JUST NOTICED THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE SUSPENSION RECALL 42190 AND PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME I JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN SEPT 2016 AND IT ONLY HAS 800 MILES ON IT AND NOTICES WENT OUT MAY-JUNE 2016 AND I WAS NOT MADE AWARE WHEN I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE. I WILL ALSO TALK TO THE DEALERSHIP ACCORDING TO THIS RECALL THE VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN UNTIL ITS FIXED. WHO WAS GOING TO TELL ME THIS HAD I NOT LOOKED IT UP AND NOT DRIVING IT IS IMPOSSIBLE ITS OUR ONLY VEHICLE AND WERE A FAMILY OF 7. FOUR OF THOSE ARE MY BABIES. I ALSO WILL BE TAKING IT IN DUE TO THE RECALL 16007. THE VIBRATION OF THE VEHICLE WILL ALSO BE DISCUSSED AS WELL.

#10924832November 7, 2016
STRUCTURE:BODY
THE VEHICLE HAS AN UNUSUAL VIBRATION AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE ROOF BOWS HAVE DETACHED FROM THE ROOFING SHEET METAL CAUSING THE SHEET METAL TO VIBRATE. THE VIBRATION CAUSES THE HEADLINER TO DETACH, AND ASSOCIATED COMPONENTS (HEAT/AC VENTS AND LIGHTS) TO FALL ON OCCUPANTS. THE VIBRATION CAUSES SIGNIFICANT AIR PRESSURE ISSUES WHICH CREATE DIZZYING EFFECTS AND HEADACHE. IN THIS CASE, THE DEALER HAS RE-ATTACHED THE ROOF BOWS TWICE AND NOW THEY ARE DETACHED AGAIN, BUT THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES AND CAN BE FOUND IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS ONLINE, HOWEVER GM IS REFUSING TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.
