2005 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN Complaints

CHECK AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE AND AFTER A FEW WEEKS THE LIGHT MAY GO OFF. DEALER COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS. THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THE HODO LATCH FAILED AND THE HOOD OPENED, BLOCKING THE VIEW OF THE HIGHWAY. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED, BUT DENIED ASSISTANCE WITH REPAIRS OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 125,000.

I WENT TO WASHINGTON AUTO SHOW TODAY 2/4/2012 AND ONE OF YOUR REP GAVE ME A CARD ABOUT YOUR SERVICE. I CAME HOME AND CHECK OUT YOUR WEBSITE AND FOUND OUT YOU HAVE BEEN RECEIVING COMPLAINTS ABOUT INSTRUMENT PANEL OF CHEVY SUBURBAN. I BOUGHT A 2005 CHEVY SUBURBAN IN MARCH 2005 FROM WIN KELLY CHEVORLET IN CLARKSVILLE, MD. ABOUT MIDDLE OF LAST YEAR I NOTICED THAT MY SPEEDOMETER IS ALWAYS STUCK, RUNNING HIGH THAN THE SPEED I AM DRIVING AND JUST EXACTLY AS BEING DESCRIBED BY OTHER OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES. WHAT IS THE DEPARTMENT DOING TO HELP WITH THIS MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT AND HAVE IT CORRECTED RATHER THAN WE CONSUMERS BEING SADDLED WITH UNEXPECTED REPAIR COST? *KB

I HAVE A CHEVY SUBURBAN 2005 MY SPEEDOMETER HAS STOPPED WORKING. I ALSO HAVE A 2005 DURAMAX THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A FULL BLOWN RECALL PLACED ON ALL GMC/CHEVY VEHICLES. APPARENTLY THESE ARE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS PEOPLE WITH THIS ISSUE ACROSS THE U.S./ WORLD ACCORDING TO FORUMS I HAVE BEEN ON. WHILE THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OUT THERE FOR A VERY LIMITED GROUP OF GMC VEHICLES, MAKING LAWYERS RICH. INSTEAD OF TAKING CARE OF THE PEOPLE WHOM MAKE THIS WORLD ACTUALLY RUN. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO SERIOUSLY LOOKED INTO. MY NEXT STEP IS TO GET THE MEDIA INVOLVED SHOWING HOW AGAIN THE AVERAGE CONSUMER CAN GET SCREWED BY THE BIG COMPANIES. I AM NOT KEEPING MY MOUTH SHUT ABOUT THIS. THANK YOU *TR

THE HINGE ON THE REAR HATCH GLASS CAME UNBONDED FROM THE GLASS. THIS CAN PROBABLY CAUSE GLASS MOVEMENT AND SHATTERING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. *TT

THE SPEEDOMETER READS ERRONEOUSLY HIGH AND OFTEN EXCEEDS 100 MPH READINGS WHILE MY GPS READS AT 70MPH. THERE IS NO TIME AT WHICH INDICATED SPEED READINGS CAN BE TRUSTED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN.THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH AND NOTICED THE SPEEDOMETER, FUEL AND OIL GAUGES FAILED TO OPERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 69,000.

THE LIFT GATE LOCK ACTUATOR ON MY 2005 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN HAS FAILED. IT HAS NO MEANS OF MANUAL OPERATION CREATING A SAFETY ISSUE CONCERNING EMERGENCY EXITING OF THE VEHICLE FROM THE REAR, SUCH AS FRONTAL IMPACT OR FIRE. *TT

GAS LEAKED FROM FUEL LINES WHICH WERE CROSSED WHEN VEHICLE WAS BUILT AS RESULT RUBBING OCCURRED AND LINES RUPTURED CAUSING FUEL TO LEAK OUT. WENT TO DEALER FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED AND WOULDN'T ADMIT THIS IS WHY THE LEAK HAPPENED ORIGINALLY. HUSBAND HAS PATCHED A FEW TIMES NOW WHILE WE WAIT FOR NEW GAS LINES TO COME FROM GM BECAUS WE REFUSE TO GO TO DEALER AND USE OUR OWN GARAGE. HOPE NEW LAW GOES INTO EFFECT REGARDING THAT AS WELL. VERY DISSATISFIED AND IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WAS ANOTHER COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS. WILL NOT BUY CHEVY EVER AGAIN. TT
