SUSPENSION
DISHONEST, UNTRUSTWORTHY, AND THIEF'S. THEY HAVE LOST MY BUSINESS, RESPECT, AND ETC. I WENT IN 27TH OF FEB 2019 AND LESS THAN 15 HOURS THE SUSPENSION FAILED ON THE DRIVE BACK HOME. THIS WAS A 2.5 HOURS DRIVE SO THE GUY INFORMED ME TO COME BACK SO I CANCELLED PLANS THE MORNING OF THE 28TH TO BRING THE VEHICLE BACK. ON 28TH FEB 2019, I INFORMED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S MY RESPONSIBILITY WHEN I DONE PAID YOU ALMOST $34K CASH FOR THIS VEHICLE WHICH IS MY WHILE SAVINGS FOR THE SAFTEY OF MY WIFE; FOUR KIDS. NOW ITS COSTING ME OVER $2K TO FIX THEIR PROBLEM WHICH SUPPOSEDLY PASSED INSPECTION. I HAVE THE PICTURES THAT PROVE OTHERWISE AND THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP SAID IT IS THE WORST THEY HAVE SEEN YET.

AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING
I WAS DRIVING A 2016 CHEVY TAHOE ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET. MY CAR LOST ALL CONTROL OF STEERING AND BRAKES. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR VEERED TO THE RIGHT AND HIT A CAR, CONTINUED ON HITTING 2 MORE PARKED CARS, DROVE THRU SOMEONE'S LARGE HEDGES, AND WAS SECONDS AWAY FROM DRIVING INTO SOMEONE'S HOUSE BUT WAS STOPPED WHEN I HIT THE 2 PARKED CARS IN THE DRIVEWAY. MY AIRBAG ALSO DID NOT DEPLOY. TWO CARS INVOLVED WERE TOTALED. AGAIN, I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE STEERING OR THE BRAKES. THANK GOD I'M ALIVE AND I DIDN'T KILL ANYONE.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHEN DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS, PARTICULARLY TO PARK, THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK. YOU CAN PUT THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE KEEPS GOING. THIS ONLY OCCURS WHEN AT A SLOWER SPEED, IN BOTH DRIVE AND REVERSE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC AND THE VACUUM PUMP HAS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT, AS I ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR BECAUSE I COULDN'T STOP.
