2017 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN Complaints

AIR CONDITIONING STOPPED WORKING. LEAK FROM CONDENSER EXCACTLY AS PICTURED IN TSB COVERING SUBURBAN ESCALADE AND YUKON'S. GM STATES MY SUBURBAN WASN'T IDENTIFIED AS HAVING THE ISSUE. INSPECTION REVEAVELS IDENTICAL PROBLEMS WITH DEFECTIVE CONDENSER AS NOTED IN THEIR TSB.

BOTTOM LINE INJECTORS! HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR LESS THAN A YEAR AND REPLACED AC CONDENSER, BACK UP CAMERA, WHOLE FUEL SYSTEM DROPPED OUT BC OF CODES, FULL TUNE UP, WIRES, PLUGS XS 2, STILL HAD MISFIRES, ROUGH IDLE CODES FINALLY AFTER 2000$ FIX AND OUT OF WARRANTY FIXED THE PROBLEM! MIGHT LOOK NICE BUT WILL NEVER BUY AGAIN!

I WAS DRIVING WITH MY SON AS A PASSENGER.I PULLED UP TO A RED LIGHT AT VERY LOW SPEED FROM A HIGH SCHOOL PARKING LOT. IT WAS A RED LIGHT. 1ST CAR MAKING A LEFT.I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE THE CROSSWALK.AFTER BEING STOPPEF FOR OVER A MINUTE,I BEGAN TO RELEASE THE BRAKE PEDAL. AS I RELEASED THE BRAKE SLIGHTLY THE BRAKE PEDAL GOT VERY STIFF AND THE CAR STARTED TO SHAKE. NO EMERGENCY STOP/LIGHTS/SEAT VIBRATE OR ABS SYSTEMS WERE ACTIVATED. AS THE CAR CREPT PAST THE CROSSWALK WITH THE BRAKE BEING DEPRESSED FULLY, SHAKING VIOLENTLY. THE VEHICLE ENDED UP 5-8 FEET FURTHER THAN WHEN I HAD STOPPED PRIOR. I NEVER RELEASED THE BRAKE ENOUGH TO EVEN MOVE. AFTER THE CAR STOPPED SHAKING MY SON HAD LOOKED AT ME AND VERY SCARED ASKED IF IT WAS AN EARTHQUAKE. I SAID NO THE CAR HAD NOT STOPPED. HE SAID TO ME WOW THAT WAS THE SAME FEELING FROM WHEN OUR VEHICLES BRAKES FAILED ONCE BEFORE AND PLOWED INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF US WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING. MY SON WAS THERE FOR BOTH INCIDENTS BUT MY WIFE AND I WERE SEPARATE DRIVES FOR BOTH INSTANCES. I THEN TESTED THE BRAKES TO BE OPERATIONAL AND CONTINUED HOME. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO PARADISE CHEVROLET AT THE FIRST APPOINTMENT THEY HAD AVAILABLE EVEN AFTER I STATED IT WAS A SAFETY EMERGENCY ON A VEHICLE THAT HAD HAD BRAKE FAILURES IN THE PAST. AFTER THE FIRST TIME THEY REPLACED THE VACUUM PUMP DUE TO FAILURE CAUSING A TRAFFIC COLLISION WITH INJURIES. CHEVROLET INSPECTED THE VEHICLE ONLY TO FIND THAT THIS TIME THE VACUUM PUMP WAS WITHIN PARAMETERS AND BRAKES WORK SUFFICIENTLY AFTER THE VACUUM UPDATE FROM A YEAR AGO.I AM NOW DRIVING THE SAME VEHICLE BASED ON THE INSPECTION FROM LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER.I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE AFTER THE VACUUM PUMP BEING REPLACED 2 TIMES DUE TO FAILURE AND A THIRD TIME WITH A FAILURE AND NO PROPER REPLACEMENT.MY FAMILY IS IN DANGER AND SO ARE OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD.

I WAS AT THE TOP OF A BOAT RAMP BEGINNING TO BACK UP IN ORDER TO LAUNCH OUR BOAT WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT HARD AS A ROCK, IT WOULD NOT PRESS DOWN. QUICKLY, I SHIFTED INTO DRIVE AND MOVED SLOWLY TO LEVEL GROUND. THE BRAKE PEDAL REMAINED HARD, BUT STOPPED WHEN EXERTING TREMENDOUS PRESSURE, AKA "STANDING ON THE BREAK." I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. THE PROBLEM WAS A FAILED BRAKE ASSIST VACUUM PUMP. APPARENTLY, THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST GM FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM.

BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY HARD TO PRESS AND WOULDNT STOP THE VEHICLE, NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THE SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD THE CODE PULLED BY A LOCAL GARAGE. THE CODE SAID THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP HAD FAILED. VEHICLE ON HAS 60000 MILES.

WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND WHEN TO APPLY BRAKE PEDAL WAS HARD AND DIDN'T RESPOND I HAD TO SLOWLY PULL TO THE SIDE AND THE CAR FINALLY BRAKES AFTER I LITERALLY HAD TO STAND ON BRAKE PEDAL . NO WARNING LIGHTS BRAKE PEDAL EXTREMELY HARD

I HAVE HAD AN ISSUE TWICE WITH MY 2017 SUBURBAN PREMIER 40K MILES WHILE AT THE BOAT RAMP WHERE THE BRAKE PEDAL GIVES OUT A BIT AND I HAVE HAD TO PUMP THE PEDAL DOWN HARD THEN APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AS A BACKUP. I HAVE A SMALL BOAT WHICH IS WHY I AM CONCERNED IT MAY BE A BRAKE MALFUNCTION. HAVEN'T HAD AN ISSUE WHILE ON THE ROAD YET BUT BOTH TIMES IN AN INCLINE BOAT RAMP. AFTER READING SEVERAL SIMILAR ISSUES LIKE MINE ON THE WEB I WILL BE CALLING GM CUSTOMERS SERVICE AND HAVING MY BRAKE SYSTEM CHECKED AGAIN.

AIR CONDITIONER FAILURE. LEAK CAUSING ALL REFRIGERANT TO LEAK OUT. APPARENTLY, THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS MODEL AND YEAR. CAR HAS 49K MILES AND IS OUT OF WARRANTY ON MILES EVEN THOUGH IT IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD. JUST LEAKED OUT RAPIDLY. BLOWING HOT AIR. NOT REALLY DRIVEABLE WITH 3 CHILDREN.

WE BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE AND IMMEDIATELY HAD ISSUES WITH THE BRAKES. WHEN YOU TRY AND PUMP THE BRAKES AT A SLOW RATE, THE BRAKES HARDEN UP AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS. WE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS SOMETHING WE HAD TO FIX ON OUR OWN AND THERE WAS NO RECALL. LOOKS LIKE THIS IS VERY COMMON IN THESE CARS AND YOU NEED TO BE AWARE. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE MAINTENANCE THAT HAS TO BE FIXED.

WHILE PUMPING BRAKES THE BRAKES AT LOW RATES OF SPEED THE PEDAL WOULD GET VERY HARD OR LOCK UP AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP AND WOULD ROLL FORWARD ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENT. I WAS ABLE TO IMMEDIATELY RECREATE THE EVENT SO I DROVE STRAIGHT TO CHEVY DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS INTERNAL FAILURE OF THE BRAKING VACUUM PUMP. I HAVE NEVER IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE HAD THAT ISSUE AND THIS CAR WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW SO I BELIEVE IT SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THAT ISSUE AT JUST 2 YEARS OLD. THIS WAS ALSO NOT A CHEAP FIX AND AM FRUSTRATED THAT IT HAS BEEN REPORTED AS COMMON AMONG CHEVY CARS RECENTLY. THESE VACUUM PUMPS ARE OVER AND OVER AGAIN MALFUNCTIONING FOR CHEVY OWNERS AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED IT SEEMS TO AVOID ACCIDENTS AND UNNECESSARY DAMAGE
