2017 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN Complaints

Persistent SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE SYSTEM warning indicator. Warning constantly sounds. Vehicle cannot be driven safely due to the sound and vehicle is unable to tow. I have spent thousands of dollars to correct the issue (replaced transmission and other elements) at the recommendation of the dealership service department. Issue is still unresolved.

The vacuum levels have dropped, causing a huge increase in braking effort. I could be rolling backwards in reverse and have the brake pedal all the way on the floor with all my strength and my car will still be rolling and eventually come to a stop. This is very unsafe and dangerous for me and also for others because it could cause me to roll into someone else’s vehicle. There has been a recall on this issue but I do not believe my car was serviced for it and it is no longer on the recall list. This is something that can be inspected at anytime seeing as it is only getting worse. Another issue I am now having is my transmission is kicking when going in and out of reverse, it won’t shift out of second and my transmission is now having to be rebuilt. I have no service lights on, no warnings and this was very sudden and out of no where.

At low speeds the brakes slip causing the vehicle to glide and not stop in the forward and reverse position. Almost hit pedestrian and other vehicles. This was reproduced by my auto technician. No warning lights on dash.

This vehicle is unsafe as there appears to be a problem with fuel injectors which causes a sudden burst when stopping and a accelerates too quuckly when taking off both problems almost caused an accident. This has been happening since the vehicle was almost brand new. I have already taken to Chevy and they admit there is a problem

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Suburban. The contact stated that while reversing out of the driveway, the brake pedal was depressed but failed to respond as needed. The contact stated that the brake warning light illuminated, the brake pedal vibrated, and the brakes failed to engage without warning. The contact stated that added pressure to the brake pedal was needed to stop the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent. The contact stated that while conducting his own research, he became aware that similar vehicles were subjected to NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V645000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic) however, his vehicle was not included. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 55,000.

Vehicle became hard to stop/pressing brakes while pulling into my garage. Had to stomp the brakes hard to stop. There were no warnings prior to this issue. No check engine alert etc. Upon research, I see that there was a recall for a flaw with the suburban’s powered brake-assist system. When I put in my vin number it states that my vehicle is not included in the recall however this is the exact problem I am experiencing.

While driving my vehicle, it started to shudder and shake. The Vehicle acted like it didn’t have any power. I was on top of a hill, and the car would not go. I tried park, drive, reverse and nothing. I had my 8 yo in the car in a dangerous area. I had to put the vehicle in neutral and drift down a hill, hoping no one would be coming to get to a safer place to get help. My car was towed. When they flushed the transmission there was metal shaving, which I now learned this has been an issue with these power trains. My vehicle is just at 60,800, which is just 800 miles over the gmc warranty.

Brakes are shuttering at low speeds, and failing at low speeds. While in parking lot, attempting to park in parking space, brakes failed both in reverse and drive, posing a hazard of collision and possibly bodily damage.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Suburban. The contact stated while driving 10-15 MPH, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the independent mechanic who diagnosed that the fuel injectors had failed. Then the vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that six of the eight fuel injectors had failed and needed to be replaced. The contact stated that the failure had been reoccurring and the vehicle had been shuddering while driving and while reversing. The contact also stated that the vehicle would jump and hesitate to respond when the accelerator pedal was depressed at the stoplight. The contact also stated that the vehicle had stalled while driving on the highway. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but informed the contact that they would not cover the repair under an unknown service bulletin because the VIN was not included. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 35,000.

The Brake Assist failed while driving slow in a parking lot. I could not stop the vehicle and narrowly missed an alert driver . Warning alerted me while it was happening... no advance warning.
