This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Excessive brake system failure, pulling and wear is still an ongoing problem since the first day the vehicle was purchased. Brakes and system repaired every 500 to 2,500 miles by Chevy dealership or an auto center licensed to do Chevy warranty/out-of-warranty work. Brake conditions deteriorate rapidly once repaired. Calipers, rotors, proportional valve, delco brake pads, cyrogenic pads, idler arm, pitman arm, alignments, ABS, rear antilock sensor, all have been replaced, some excessively. Very concerned about possible accident resulting in fatalities due to brake performance. Fyi, the service center has shown me the tech bulletins published by Chevy regarding repairs/service to the brake system. The service center has worked on numerous vehicles with the same problem(s) that I have experienced with the Chevy Suburban brake system. All repairs/service on the Suburban (in- and out-of-warranty) are documented and are available if needed.
