Summary

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.

Summary

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.

Summary

Vehicle brake pedal goes to floor while running 35 MPH or slower at times! I am a mechanic and feels like brake assist system is failing (brake pump)but not all the time! I took to dealer and they could not reproduce problem so sent me on my way. This is a large heavy 8 passenger vehicle and my wife’s so she is scared when this occurs and is now afraid to drive it. This was a $66,000 vehicle that has 64,000 easy highway miles on it and is in mint condition. I ran my vin and there is no recalls on the vin but still has a brake problem. I have all new brake pads and rotors front and rear I do myself as I am a over 30 year mechanic. This is a safety brake issue as I’ve had it happen to me and my wife and it scares you because it takes longer to stop when it occurs!

Summary

I brought my vehicle to Chevy dealer and I told service advisor something is wrong with brakes and/or brake assist. The brake pedal feels really stiff at low speeds. After dropping off keys with service advisor at Puyallup WA Chevy Harnish Auto Family I told them it might be something related to brake booster so something vacuum. After waiting for technician to diagnose the service advisor told me it was the vacuum pump and luckily it was covered under warranty.

Summary

The condenser has a faulty design and cracks, causing it to leak flammable R1234YF coolant in the engine bay. Additionally, this leak causes the AC system to stop cooling, thus making the inside of the vehicle a very dangerous place, particularly during summer months, as it is impossible to cool. There are thousands of reports of this issue on all Chevy/GM models between 2015-2020 including tahoe, silverado, suburban, and yukons. The manufacturer has put out a "special coverage 17336" adjustment but it only covers the vehicles up to 60,000 miles and because it's not part of a recall it's not automatically sent out to the owners of the vehicles. Further, a large number of vehicles are well beyond the 60,000 mile limit in the special coverage before the owner ever learns of the issue. According to SAE J1739, "Manufacturers must conduct Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) as provided in SAE J1739 (adopted 2009). Manufacturers must keep the FMEA on file for at least three years from the date of creation." I would challenge that chevrolet did not do this FMEA testing or did not do it per standard as it would have shown this issue. Instead they moved forward with production affecting hundreds of thousands of their most popular vehicles from 2015-2020 and resulting in the consumer having to pay an average of $1100 in repair costs due to a known defect from the manufacturer.

Summary

GM has a special coverage TSB for A/C issues relating to a condenser unit and leakage of refrigerant. My 2017 Chevy Suburban has had the same issue just occur at 68,000 miles. Complete loss of A/C. After researching online, this is a VERY common problem. Most instances are just outside of the manufacturer warranty as well. Special Coverage TSB No. 17336-04 covers this issue for specific VIN numbers based on where they were manufactured. Regardless of where manufactured there are MANY other vehicles having the same issue. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. As it is just now getting extremely hot in Georgia, there is no telling how long this has been an issue. And of course, I will need to have the A/C fixed long before any action is realized from this submission.. Hopefully other will benefit from the post!! Thanks for you help and consideration.

Summary

VEHICLE DASH AND HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING, ENGINE STALLS AND DIES, POWER STEERING BECOMES INOPERATIVE. TRANSMISSION POPS OUT OF GEAR AND FREEWHEELS. SERVICE STABILITRACK LIGHT. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR MY WIFE AND 5 KIDS WHEN THIS HAPPENS ON CURVY BACKROADS AT NIGHT LIKE JUST HAPPENED LAST NIGHT! THIS IS ALSO THE SAME PROBLEM AS OUR PREVIOUS CHEVY TAHOE SO WE KNEW THE PROBLEM WAS LIKELY RELATED TO POOR QUALITY BATTERY CABLES THAT ARE DEGRADING PREMATURELY. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING ON A 3-4 YEAR OLD VEHICLE. AFTER SEARCHING A GM WEB FORUM AND FINDING OTHER PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE, THERE WAS A REFERENCE TO GM TSB 18-NA-161 ON THIS EXACT ISSUE I AM ABSOLUTELY AMAZED THAT GM HAS NOT DONE A RECALL ON THIS YET, AS IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY FAILURE LIKELY TO CAUSE A CRASH AND POTENTIALLY A FATALITY. I CHECKED THE TIGHTNESS ON THE CONNECTIONS BY HAND, WHICH WERE BOTH VERY TIGHT, THEN I RESEATED AND TORQUED THE BATTERY TERMINAL CONNECTION. I MEASURED THE RESISTANCE ACROSS THE POWER JUMPER, LUG TO LUG. THIS IS GM PART NUMBER 84494554, AND I MEASURED 0.3 OHMS ACROSS THIS LITTLE SECTION OF WIRE AT MULTIPLE POINTS ON THE LUGS. TRIMMING BACK THE INSULATION AND CONTINUING THE MEASURE, THE HIGHEST RESISTANCE APPEARS TO BE COMING FROM THE WIRE TO THE LUG CONNECTION AT THE FUSE BUS, AND NOT THE CRIMP CONNECTION AT THE BATTERY TERMINAL, AND NOT THE BOLTED CONNECTION TO THE BUS. THERE WERE SOME STRANDS BROKEN AT THIS CONNECTION. I MADE AND ADDED A TEMPORARY JUMPER OF THE SAME WIRE GAGE, AND THE RESISTANCE ACROSS THE SAME MEASURED POINTS DROPPED TO 0.0 OHMS. ABSOLUTELY A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE IF THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DIES WITHOUT WARNING. I CAN SEE THIS SAME ISSUE HAPPENING ONCE, I FORGAVE GM ONCE YEARS AGO, BUT WITH THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENING TO TWO DIFFERENT VEHICLES 8 MODEL YEARS APART, THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY IS TOO IMPORTANT TO BUY GM PRODUCT IN THE FUTURE.

AFTER APPLYING AND RELEASING THE BRAKE PEDAL AT A SLOW SPEED TO COME TO A STOP THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT HARD AND VEHICLE FELT LIKE IT WOULD NOT STOP. I HAD TO PUSH THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD STILL SLOWLY ROLL AND THEN FINALLY COME TO A STOP. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S THE VACUUM PUMP AND OIL LINES. I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH AND FOUND THAT GM HAD A RECALL BACK IN 2018 ON 2014-2018 MODELS LIKE MINE HOWEVER, I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED AND IF YOU SEARCH MY VIN IT SAYS NO RECALLS AVAILABLE. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE??? I AND MY FAMILY COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR INJURED OTHER PEOPLE IN A CRASH!

HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL EVEN THOUGH I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE ONES COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. THIS IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN AS WELL AS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT CAN CAUSE WINDOW FOG. CHEVY NEEDS TO STEP UP AND PAY TO FIX THE ISSUE FOR ALL THE AFFECTED VEHICLE'S. IN ADDITION, THE FRONT COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM IS A JOKE, ITS INCONSISTENT AND RARELY WORKS.

Summary

DUE TO THE EXCESSIVE BRAKING NECESSARY AND THE UNEVEN BRAKING THAT THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN RECALLED TWICE SINCE SEPT. 2019, I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING EXCESSIVE AND UNEVEN BRAKE AND TIRE WEAR. I HAVE TOLD THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE LEASING THIS VEHICLE THAT IT DID NOT RIDE RIGHT AND THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD SHAKE EVERY TIME I USED THE BRAKES. IT ALWAYS FEELS LIKE I HAVE TO SLAM THE BRAKES TO EVEN SLOW DOWN. THEY FIXED ONE RECALL AND DO NOT YET HAVE THE FIX FOR MY MODEL YEAR, FOR THE SECOND. THE DEALER HAS NOTES THAT I NEEDED BRAKE REPAIR AT 29,000 MILES, BUT THEY DID NOT INFORM ME. I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK 3 TIMES SINCE THEN, NOTING THE EXACT SAME THING. AT 36,000 MILES THEY TOLD ME I AM NOW DOWN TO THE ROTORS AND THE PADS AND ROTORS NEED REPLACEMENT DUE TO UNEVEN WEAR. I EXPRESSED CONCERN DUE TO THE RECALLS AND DUE TO THE FACT THAT I HAVE BEEN TELLING THEM REPEATEDLY ABOUT THE DRIVEABILITY OF THIS VEHICLE, I FIRMLY STAND THAT THIS IS A DIRECT PRODUCT OF THE ISSUE FROM THE TWO RECALLS. THE DEALER TRIED TO USE SCARE TACTICS. I OPENED A CASE WITH CHEVY AND I AM GETTING NO ASSISTANCE. I AM FEARFUL IN THIS CAR. I AM GOING TO GET THE BRAKES AND TIRES DONE BECAUSE MY KIDS ARE IN THIS VEHICLE, BUT WHAT ABOUT AFTER THAT, IT WILL JUST KEEP HAPPENING BECAUSE THE ON ISSUE IS NOT FIXED AND THE OTHER IS NOT PROPERLY FIXED. THEY DO NOT SEEM TO WANT TO STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCT AND I AM GUESSING WILL NOT CARE WHEN GOD FORBID SOMEONE OR SOMEONE'S FAMILY IS KILLED.

Summary

THIS VEHICLE KEEPS HAVING KEY FOB, ELECTRICAL ISSUES, TIRE SERVICE MAINTENANCE ISSUES, AND NOW ENGINE ISSUES RELATED TO THE KEY FOB. THE KEY FOB KEEPS SAYING IT IS NOT DETECTED. RECENTLY, WHILE DRIVING ON ROAD AT ABOUT 48 MPH, KEY FOB NOTIFICATION CAME ON DASHBOARD SAYING KEY FOB WAS NOT DETECTED, ENGINE SHUT OFF AND CAR HAD TO BE RESTARTED AGAIN USING FOB BOX INSIDE GLOVE COMPARTMENT, THIS WAS PARTICULARLY ALARMING. THE KEY FOB HAS HAD BATTERIES REPLACED AND THEY WORK BECAUSE THE CAR WILL REMOTE START AND HAVE TRIED BATTERIES IN OTHER ITEMS. THE FOB DOES NOT HOWEVER LET YOU UNLOCK THE CAR OR FINISH STARTING IT OUT OF THE REMOTE START ONCE YOU GET INTO THE CAR AND TRY TO START IT, THE CAR TELLS YOU IT CANNOT DETECT THE REMOTE. THE CAR HAS HAD NUMEROUS KEY FOB ISSUES AND HAS BEEN TAKEN INTO LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER WHO CANNOT FIND ISSUE. THE CAR HAS ALSO HAD 142 HARD BRAKING EVENTS SINCE APRIL 2019 TO NOVEMBER 2019 ACCORDING TO ON STAR REPORTS. THE TIRE SERVICE MONITOR KEEPS FLASHING THAT THERE ARE ISSUES WITH TIRES. THE REAR WIPER WOULD NOT SHUT ITSELF OFF EVEN THOUGH BUTTON WAS IN OFF POSITION. ALL OF THESE ISSUES HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO BE REPAIRED AT THE CHEVY DEALER. THIS CAR IS GOING BACK IN FOR SERVICE 11/18/19 FOR THESE ISSUES AGAIN. NOT SURE WHAT THE OUTCOME WILL BE UNTIL AFTER THIS APPOINTMENT. MY GUESS IS THAT IT IS SOME KIND OF ELECTRONIC CIRCUITRY PROBLEM(S) BUT UNFORTUNATELY THE DEALER SAYS THEY CANNOT FIND ANY ISSUE(S) OR PROBLEM(S) UNTIL IT COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN. THESE EVENTS ARE ONGOING AND HAVE BEEN OCCURRING INTERMITTENTLY SINCE NOVEMBER 2018. ALL I CAN PROVIDE IS PHOTOS OF THE DASHBOARD SHOWING WHAT IT RELATES TO ME UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE NO DOCUMENTATION OF ENGINE SHUTTING OFF ONLY A PHOTO OF WHAT DASHBOARD SHOWED WHEN IT HAPPENED.

Summary

ON MARCH 21, 2019 I WAS IN AN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT DUE TO BRAKE ISSUES. I WAS AT A RED LIGHT IN THE LEFT TURN LANE AROUND THE CORNER FROM MY HOUSE. THERE WERE 3 OR 4 CARS IN FRONT OF ME TO TURN LEFT. LIGHT TURNED GREEN, EVERYONE PROCEEDED. THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME PASSED THE CROSS WALK AT THE INTERSECTION, SHE SLAMMED ON HER BRAKES AND DECIDED NOT TO PROCEED. I SAW HER MAKING A SUDDEN STOP, I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE. SINCE WE WEREN'T GOING VERY FAST, MY EXPECTATION WAS FOR MY CAR TO STOP. I FOUND THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL SEEMED TO BE MORE DIFFICULT TO PUSH. INSTEAD THE HARDER I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE THE MORE I REALIZED I WAS ABOUT TO HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. AT THAT POINT I FELT LIKE I HAD TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES. THINGS WERE HAPPENING SO FAST. AFTER MY VEHICLE BUMPED THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, I ASKED THE GIRL TO PULL OFF THE ROAD SO WE WOULDN'T BLOCK TRAFFIC. I CALLED THE POLICE TO COME OUT TO TAKE A REPORT. SHE STATED THAT HER VEHICLE ALREADY HAD A HOLE IN THE BUMPER SO MY VEHICLE DIDN'T DO MUCH DAMAGE TO HER CAR. WE BOTH HAD OUR VEHICLES REPAIRED. SOMETIME IN EARLY TO MID MAY I RECEIVED A GENERIC LETTER FROM GM (DATED APRIL 2019) DISCUSSING THE FACT THAT THERE MAY BE A CONDITION WITH THE 2017 SUBURBAN MAY HAVE A CONDITION WHERE CUSTOMERS MAY EXPERIENCED INCREASED BRAKE PEDAL EFFORT. I CONTACT GM AFTER STUDYING UP ON THIS ISSUE AND FILED A COMPLAINT. I RECD A CASE #. SOMETIME LATER HE CONTACTED ME SAYING MY CASE HAD BEEN MOVED TO ANOTHER AREA. NEVER HEARD FROM ANYONE CALLED THEM ON JUNE 18. WAITED FOR ANOTHER CALL. FINALLY HEARD CASE WAS BEING MOVED TO ANOTHER AREA AND WAS TOLD IT COULD TAKE 30 DAYS OR MORE. I SUPPLIED ALL THEY ASKED FOR. THEY SENT SOMEONE OUT TO RETRIEVE DATA. WAITED AND WAITED. AFTER MUCH EFFORT RECEIVED AN EMAIL SAYING THAT THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED 5 MONTHS AGO & THE CONDITION MAY NOT HAVE BEEN PRESENT AT THAT TIME AND DECLINED TO ASSIST

Summary

WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY ON THE HIGHWAY THERE APPEARED TO BE A HARD SHIFT BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND GEAR AND WHEN SECOND GEAR DID KICK IN, THERE WAS A SUDDEN JERK. ALREADY HAVING MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY, THAT MORNING A WHIRLING SOUND APPEARED EACH TIME THE ACCELERATION PEDAL WAS PRESSED. WHEN WE GOT THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC AND IT CAME BACK CLEAR. I ALSO PAY FOR ON STAR, AND THEY PROVIDE ME WITH REGULAR DIAGNOSTIC REPORTS, WHICH NEVER INDICATED A PROBLEM AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. THE VEHICLE APPEARED FINE ON PAPER BUT WITH A TEST RUN, THE DEALERSHIP WAS ABLE TO SEE THE PROBLEM AND TOLD US WE NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. A MECHANIC TOOK OUR OLD TRANSMISSION APART AND SAID THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TORQUE CONVERTER AND WHEN IT WENT UP IT SENT SHRAPNEL INTO THE PUMPS AND DESTROYED THE TRANSMISSION. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CERTAIN GM TRUCKS

Summary

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.

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

THEY DID SAY IT WAS A BAD DESIGN AND WOULD MOST LIKELY GO OUT AGAIN. I HAVE 4 CHILDREN WHO ARE IN THE CAR WITH ME AT ALL TIMES. I LOOKED ONLINE AND THERE IS NOT A RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE YET BUT I READ THAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES I SAVED MY RECEIPTS AND I AM HONESTLY SCARED TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE MY FAMILY AROUND IN MY CAR.

THE BACKUP CAMERA SCREEN IS SO BRIGHT YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING EXCEPT VERY BRIGHT LIGHT IN YOUR EYES. THAT FIRST FEW MORNINGS I THOUGHT WELL I'LL READ THRU THE MANUAL ABOUT HOW TO ADJUST THE BRIGHTNESS. I HAVE NOW LOOKED THRU THE BOOK SEVERAL TIMES AND WE HAVE ESTABLISHED ...THERE IS NO ADJUSTMENT OFFERED.. THIS IS A DEFINITE HAZARD AND NOW I SEE FROM A SEARCH ON THE INTERNET..WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES WITH THIS PROBLEM. MY 2014 SUBURBAN DID NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE...SO THEY MUST HAVE CHANGED SOMETHING, THE ADJUSTMENT..BRAND OF CAMERA, SOMETHING. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT..IF A PERSON IN DARK CLOTHES WALKED BEHIND ME I COULD NOT SEE THEM BECAUSE OF THE BRIGHTNESS. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT IF THEY DON'T FIX THIS.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PUT INTO REVERSE, THE REAR BACK-UP CAMERA COMES ON. THE DISPLAY OF THE CAMERA IS EXTREMELY TOO BRIGHT, AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO BACK UP PROPERLY WITH A GLARING LIGHT IN YOUR FACE. THERE IS CURRENTLY NOT AN OPTION TO DECREASE THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE CAMERA. I HAVE CONTACTED THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP IN PERSON AND THE CHEVROLET CORPORATION BY CHAT AND BY PHONE. EACH TIME, NO OPTIONS WERE PROVIDED TO ASSIST WITH THE ISSUE. WHEN I CONTACTED THE CHEVROLET CORPORATION, I WAS TOLD TO CONTACT THE NHTSA IF I FELT THAT THERE WAS AN ISSUE. I FEEL THAT THE BRIGHT DISPLAY OF THE REAR BACK-UP CAMERA COULD POTENTIALLY BE A SAFETY ISSUE, SINCE IT IMPEDES THE DRIVER'S ABILITY TO SEE CLEARLY WITH THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS. THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES.

Summary

PRESSURE IN CABIN FELT STRONGLY IN EARS AT SPEEDS BELOW 40 MPH (CITY). WE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FIRST ON A 2015 SUBURBAN, THEN A 2017 SUBURBAN PURCHASED BY OUR OFFICE LAST DECEMBER, AND NOW ON THE SECOND SUBURBAN PURCHASED MARCH 2017. WHILE DRIVING IN CITY, PARTICULARLY OVER SLIGHTLY BUMPY ROADS, CABIN PRESSURE IS VERY STRONG AND PAINFUL TO THE EARS.

Summary

ON THE INTERSTATE THERE WAS A LINE OF MOTORCYCLES OF AT LEAST 50. AHEAD AND BEHIND THEM WERE A FEW OF THE NEWER SUBURBANS AND TAHOES BY CHEVY/GMC. I DIDNT HAVE ISSUES WITH THE LINE AND DELAY. I HAD AN ISSUE WITH THEIR HAZZARDS/EMERGENCY LIGHTS BLINKING. WHEN THOSE VEHICLES HAVE THEIR HAZARD LIGHTS BLINKING, THE BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK WHEN THEY ARE PRESSING ON THE BRAKES!!!! SO IT IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD FOR OTHER DRIVERS WHEN THE BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK WHEN THE HAZARD LIGHTS ARE ON AND BLINKING.
