I HAVE A 2002 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THIS YEAR I PURCHASED A NEW TRAVEL TRAILER TO BE TOWED BY THE SUBURBAN. AFTER HEARING OTHER STORIES ABOUT HITCH FAILURE I INSPECTED MINE AND NOTICED THE WELDS WERE CRACKING. THIS WAS AFTER THE SECOND TRIP TOWING THE TRAILER, AND A GOOD THING I CHECKED BEFORE OUR NEXT TRIP. ANY WAY I CALLED THE DEALER, EVEN THOUGH OUR WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED, AND THEY SAID THEY KNEW NOTHING ABOUT IT, AND THERE WAS NOTHING FOR THEM TO DO ABOUT IT. I ENDED UP BUYING A NEW PUTNAM HITCH TO REPLACE THE OEM ONE. I THINK GM SHOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR REPLACING THEIR FAULTY PART. *JB.Mileage was 70100 miles.

THIS IN REFERENCE TO A CLOSED NHTSA ACTION # DP05009. AFTER A PARKING BRAKE FAILURE THAT OCCURRED ON THIS 2002 CHEVY SUBURBAN WITH 54,000 MILES ON IT, IN NOVEMBER, I LOOKED INTO SIMILAR SITUATIONS WITH OTHER SUBURBAN OWNERS AND OF THE 3 I FOUND, 2 IN SOUTH CAROLINA, AND ONE IN INDIANA, ALL HAD SIMILAR PARKING BRAKE PROBLEMS. WHEN I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR, I WAS TOLD THERE WERE NO RECALLS OR SAFETY NOTICES REGARDING THIS PROBLEM. AFTER REVIEWING YOUR NHTSA SITE, I SEE THAT THIS PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED AND CLOSED BUT ONLY APPLIED TO VEHICLE WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS, EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM WAS IN AUTOMATIC MODELS TOO, WHICH WAS APPARENTLY GLOSSED OVER BECAUSE OF THE PERCENTAGE OF ROLL AWAY INCIDENTS. THIS PROBLEM IS STILL OUT THERE, AND CHEVY DENIES IT. CHEVY NEEDS TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS AS A SERIES WIDE PROBLEM AND FIX IT ON A RECALL BASIS. THE INSULTING THING ABOUT THIS IS THE DEALERSHIP ACTS LIKE IT IS SOMETHING NEW, AND PERHAPS I WAS LEAVING THE PARKING BRAKE ON ALL THE TIME. IT IS NOT NEW, AND I HAVE NEVER DRIVEN AWAY WITH THE PARKING BRAKE ON IN MY LIFE. AND WE WONDER WHY THE AMERICAN AUTO INDUSTRY IS FAILING TO ATTRACT CUSTOMERS. *JB.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 54000 miles.

CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 Steering Electric Power Assist System

CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 2002 Safety Review #10215539

CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 2002 car safety problem was reported on Dec 15, 2007.CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 2002, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM . WHEN THE CAR IS COLD, THE STEERING RESISTS VERY STRONGLY A TURN TO THE RIGHT IN THE FIRST 10-20 DEGREES OF STEERING WHEEL TURN TO THE RIGHT OF STRAIGHT. THE STRENGTH OF RESISTANCE IS VARIABLE, DEPENDING ON THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE. SITTING STILL, THERE IS A SLIGHT ?HITCH? OR NOTHING AT ALL. AS VEHICLE SPEED INCREASES, THE AMOUNT OF RESISTANCE INCREASES TO A MAX AT ABOUT 20-25 MPH, WHERE IT TAKES AN ?ARM WRESTLE? FORCE TO MOVE THE STEERING TO THE RIGHT. IT RESISTS, FIGHTS BACK, THEN WITH A LOT OF MUSCLE ? POPS THROUGH THIS RESISTANCE AND FEELS PERFECTLY NORMAL. THE HARD MUSCLE PULL TO THE RIGHT, AND SUBSEQUENT RELEASE MAKES THE TRACK OF THE CAR TEND STRAIGHT, AND THEN JERK RIGHT. WHEN THE CAR HAS THIS MALFUNCTION, IT REQUIRES THE MOST PHYSICAL POWER TO PULL THE STEERING TO THE RIGHT THE FIRST TIME. SUCCESSIVE TURNS TO THE RIGHT ARE EASIER AND EASIER, UNTIL AFTER ABOUT 4-5 CYCLES TO THE RIGHT, THE STEERING IS ?NORMAL.? SYMPTOMS ARE GONE WITHIN 1 MILE OF DRIVING. THIS MALFUNCTION OCCURS USUALLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS COLD AND HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN FOR SEVERAL DAYS. IT ALSO IS MORE PREVALENT WHEN THE OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE IS COLD. THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS TO BOTH. IT RESISTED TURNS TO THE RIGHT IN THE MORNING, AND EQUALLY AS MUCH THAT EVENING RETURNING HOME FROM WORK. IT HAS SHOWN UP IN THE SUMMER, BUT MORE OFTEN IN THE WINTER. IT DOES NOT DO IT EVERY DAY. I DESCRIBE IT AS PERMANENT, PERSISTENTLY INTERMITTENT. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER THREE TIMES, AND LEFT DAYS AND WEEKS AT A TIME. AT THE LAST INCIDENT, THE DEALER REPLACED THE STEERING POSITION SENSOR. FREQUENCY OF MALFUNCTION DECREASED, BUT THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE WILL NOT TAKE NORMAL STEERING COMMANDS IS IN ITSELF HAZARDOUS. ON SLIPPERY SURFACES, THE LIKELIHOOD OF LOSS OF CONTROL IS SEVERE. *TR .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 68000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GNFK16Z52J.

SAME THING, ENGINE STOPS, WAIT 3-5 MINUTES ENGINE STARTS, SEEMS LESS PREVALENT WHEN TANK IS FULL.

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WITH MY 2002 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN LS WITH 45,000 MILES ON IT, I ENCOUNTERED A COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WOULD COAST UNTIL I REACHED A SPEED OF 30MPH., I WOULD PLACE THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND ATTEMPT TO RE-START THE ENGINE. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, THE VEHICLE WOULD RE-START, ACCELERATE TO 70 MPS. THIS WOULD OCCUR INTERMITTENT OVER AND OVER THROUGH MY TWO DRIVING TRIP. THE ACTUAL NUMBER OF TIME THE ENGINE FAILED WAS 14. THIS CAUSED A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION, BECAUSE WITHOUT ENGINE POWER, I HAD NO POWER BRAKES, STEERING OR THE ABILITY TO MAINTAIN SPEED, WHICH RESULTED IN ME LOCATING THE ROAD SHOULDER IMMEDIATELY! I CONTACTED THE DEALER I USE REGULARLY AND THEY INFORMED ME THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THEY HAVE EVER HEARD OF THIS. HOWEVER, AFTER RESEARCHING THE INTERNET I DISCOVERED THROUGH FORUMS THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AT MY DESTINATION AT 1000 US HIGHWAY 1 PH: (772) 567-8371 , VERO BEACH, FL 32960 MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR MONDAY JULY 14, 2008 AT 8:30AM.

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE 2002 VEHICLE AND HAVE NOT MOVED FROM 1997-2008. HOW DO I GET THIS RESOLVED AND AT NO COST TO ME? JUST MAYBE THE DEALERSHIP WILL FIX THE PROBLEM WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS, HOWEVER FROM MY MANY PAST EXPERIENCES WITH DEALERSHIPS, THE LAST IS NOT THE USUAL. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME TO HELP ASSIST ME IN FIXING THE VEHICLE AND THE COST TERMS IF NEED. THANK YOU. MARK DEEHL *TR .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 45000 miles.

CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 2002 car safety problem was reported on Mar 03, 2009.CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 2002, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS . I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I HEARD A BLAST OF AIR LIKE A TORNADO OR HURRICANE IN MY CAR. PAPERS AND THINGS IN MY CAR STARTED FLYING. WHEN I STOPPED I DISCOVERED THAT THE REAR WINDOW HAD SEPERATED ITSELF FROM THE FRAME AT THE TOP AND WAS NOW OPEN BY AN INCH. THE WINDOW IS DESIGNED TO OPEN FROM THE BOTTOM WITH A LATCH. THE TWO HINGES AT THE TOP OF THE WINDOW HAD NOW ALSO SNAPPED BROKEN FROM THE WINDOW, LEAVING ONLY THE SIDES ATTACHED. THIS IS A VERY LARGE WINDOW AND COULD HAVE TOTALLY COME OFF IN TRAFFIC CAUSING GREAT HARM TO OTHERS. IF THE WINDOW HAD BEEN OPEN AS IT IS ALSO DESIGNED IT WOULD HAVE BLOWN OFF. I HAVE SINCE FOUND THAT THE COLLISION REPAIR PLACE I USED SAID HE HAD ANOTHER JUST LIKE IT THE WEEK BEFORE. IN TRYING TO REPLACE THE WINDOW WITH ANOTHER USED ONE HE FOUND THAT THE ADHESIVE WAS ALSO STARTING TO DO THE SAME, THEREFORE IT WAS NECESSARY TO REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE. IN FIXING THE WINDOW THE COLLISION EXPERT SHOWED HOW EASY IT WOULD BE FOR THE MANUFACTURER TO FIX. IT NEEDS BOTH SIDES OF THE HINGES BOLTED. I DO FEEL THIS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED TO SAVE OTHERS HARM. I HAVE ALSO SAVED ALL PARTS PERSONALLY FOR ANY/ALL INSPECTION..Mileage was 76000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3GNEC16Z92G. Chevrolet Suburban 1500 2002 problem was reported in PLANTATION, FL. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 55 mph.

THIS LEFT US ATTEMPTING TO NAVIGATE FROM BUSY STREET WITH OUR THREE KIDS IN THE CAR WITH NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES! WE WERE 140 MILES FROM HOME AND WHEN WE ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE BACK HOME, THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN. THIS TIME ON BUSY FOUR LANE ROAD WITH LOTS OF TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE STALLED OUT AGAIN LEAVING US ON SIDE OF BUSY ROAD AT ON RAMP LOCATION. THIS WAS NOT FIRST TIME THAT THIS HAS OCCURRED. WE HAVE HAD 5 OTHER INCIDENCES WITH THIS VEHICLE. GM IS NO HELP. THEY ACT LIKE THEY HAVE NEVER HAD ANY REPORTS OF SUCH PROBLEMS, YET MANY CAN BE FOUND ONLINE. WE HAD OUR VEHICLE TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR CENTER SINCE THE GM DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP WAS MORE INTERESTED IN TELLING US THAT THEY COULDN'T FIX IT ON THAT DAY BUT THEY DID HAVE A RENTAL CAR SERVICE ON LOT. I HOPE THAT SOON ATTENTION WILL BE GIVEN TO THIS OBVIOUS DEFECT IN THIS VEHICLE BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED. BUT THEN AGAIN THAT IS WHAT IT TOOK FOR ATTENTION TO BE GIVEN TO TOYOTA PROBLEMS.

MY 2002 CHEVY SUBURBAN HAS INTERMITTENT BUT INCREASINGLY MORE FREQUENT AND LONGER DURATION STARTING PROBLEMS. MY RESEARCH TELLS ME THAT IT IS EXHIBITING THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS AS THE 2000 AND 2001 SUBURBAN MODELS THAT WERE UNDER A 2005 FUEL PUMP HARNESS RECALL. AFTER NEARLY 4 MONTHS OF DEALING WITH THIS PROBLEM, RESEARCHING IT, AND TRYING TO CONVINCE BOTH MY LOCAL MECHANIC AND THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THE PUMP, MY SUBURBAN FINALLY FAILED TO START AT ALL TODAY. TOMORROW MY LOCAL MECHANIC IS GOING TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP AND RELAY. I AM ANGRY TO DISCOVER THAT THE 2001 AND 2000 MODELS WERE UNDER RECALL FOR THIS VERY SAME ISSUE, BUT THE 2002 MODELS WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND THE DEALERSHIP -- COURTESY CHEVROLET IN SAN DIEGO -- DESPITE 3 RECENT VISITS THERE WITH THIS PROBLEM, FAILED TO MENTION THIS RECALL OF THOSE EARLIER YEAR MODELS. THEY FAILED TO EVEN RECOGNIZE THAT THIS COULD BE A PROBLEM WITH MY SUBURBAN. THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING UNLESS A COMPUTER DIAGNOSED CODE TELLS THEM WHAT TO DO. MY SYMPTOMS ARE THE SAME AND I'M REALIZING NOW HOW FORTUNATE I AM THAT THIS CAR DID NOT DIE ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF ONE OF THE MANY INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY. I'M ALSO FORTUNATE THAT MY CAR DID NOT CATCH ON FIRE! I'M ASKING YOU TO LOOK INTO HOW MANY 2002 SUBURBANS HAVE THE SAME FUEL PUMP AND FUEL PUMP HARNESS ISSUES AS THE 2000 AND 2001 MODELS. THE DATE LISTED BELOW IS THE FIRST DAY THE CAR ACTED UP. IT HAS BEEN ONGOING PROGRESSIVELY SINCE THEN. *TR.Mileage was 85000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3GNFK16Z82G.

THE 2002 FAILURE SENT ME OUT INTO THE STREET IN FRONT OF MY HOME UNABLE TO STOP. THE SECOND FAILURE OF THE 2004 OCCURRED WHILE ON A CROSS COUNTRY TRIP WITH MOST OF MY FAMILY IN THE CAR. THIS IS THE ONE THAT SPURS MY EFFORTS TO COMPLAIN. I COULD LOSE IT WHEN CONSIDERING WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED TO MY FAMILY DUE TO THESE FAILURES ON TWO VERY EXPENSIVE CARS WHICH I WOULD NEVER HAVE EXPECTED TO FAIL LIKE THIS. I WOULD LIKE VERY MUCH NOT TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE AND IF I CAN GET A REFUND FOR THE COSTLY REPAIR THAT WOULD BE GREAT. I HAVE PRESERVED THE ROTTED BRAKE LINES.

CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 2002 car safety problem was reported on Oct 05, 2012.CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 2002, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . TRAVELING DOWNHILL TOWARD A T-INTERSECTION, APPLIED BRAKES AND PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. MISSED AN APPROACHING VEHICLE FROM THE LEFT BY INCHES AS I SWUNG TO THE RIGHT, THRU A STOP SIGN. RETURNED HOME, THINKING A RUBBER BRAKE LINE HAD FAILED. UPON INSPECTION, THE STEEL BRAKE PIPE APPROXIMATELY TEN INCHES IN FRONT OF THE RIGHT FRONT CALIPER HAD SPLIT OPEN DUE TO CORROSION. WHEN I INSPECTED THE TUBING PRIOR TO PURCHASING REPLACEMENT PARTS, I DISCOVERED VIRTUALLY ALL THE STEEL BRAKE LINES WERE CORRODED TO THE POINT OF FAILURE, AND IN FACT, I CREATED ANOTHER BREAK IN THE SAME LINE AS I ATTEMPTED TO LOOSEN IT FROM THE PLASTIC HOLD-DOWN CLAMPS UNDER THE LEFT FRAME RAIL. ACCESSING THE BRAKE LINES AS THEY ARE ROUTED BETWEEN BODY AND FRAME PROVED ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE, AND AM CURRENTLY AWAITING A RECOVERY VEHICLE TO TAKE THE TRUCK TO MY INSPECTION MECHANIC FOR REPLACEMENT OF ALL BRAKE FLUID LINES/HOSES FROM THE MASTER CYLINDER TO THE EBCM TO EACH WHEEL CALIPER. THE FACTORY SERVICE MANUAL MANDATES A MINIMUM OF 3/4" BETWEEN ANY PARALLEL BRAKE LINES, PRESUMABLY TO PREVENT BRIDGING WITH MUD/DEBRIS WHICH MIGHT ABET CORROSION. IN MANY CASES, MY STEEL BRAKE LINES WERE WITHIN 1/4" OF ONE ANOTHER. SOME STEEL LINES LAY AGAINST STEEL FRAME RAILS WITH NO CLEARANCE. THIS, HOWEVER, WOULD NOT ACCOUNT FOR THE LEVEL OF CORROSION I DISCOVERED THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE UNDERBODY OF THE TRUCK. THE ONLY NON-CORRODED PORTION OF MY BRAKE SYSTEM IS THE TWO LINES IMMEDIATELY FROM THE MASTER CYLINDER DOWNWARD TO WHERE THEY TRAVEL REARWARD ALONG THE LEFT FRAME RAIL. EVERYTHING ELSE IS AT THE POINT OF FAILURE. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 78280 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3GNFK16ZX2G.

ON 10-5-12 I WAS DRIVING MY 2002 CHEVY SUBURBAN IN EATON RAPIDS MICHIGAN. I WENT TO APPLY THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I WAS ABLE TO COAST AND SLOW ENOUGH TO GET OFF THE ROADWAY AND INTO A PARKING LOT. I NOTED SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I CHECKED AND NOTED THE RIGHT FRONT BRAKE LINE HAD BLOWN AND SPRAYED BRAKE FLUID ONTO THE ENGINE. I NOTED FLUID ON THE GROUND UNDER THE TRUCK AND THE RESERVOIR WAS LOW ON FLUID. THERE WAS NO WARNING AND NO WARNING LIGHT ON THE IN DASH COMPUTER. THE BRAKES WENT FROM WORKING JUST FINE TO NOTHING! I HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED AT ANDREWS AUTOMOTIVE IN MASON, MI. THEY ADVISED THAT TWO OF THE LINES HAD BLOWN AND THE OTHER TWO WERE SO RUSTY THAT THEY COULD GO AT ANYTIME AND RECOMMENDED THEY BE REPLACED AS WELL. I HAD THEM REPLACE ALL THE BRAKE LINES. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. THIS IS VERY SCARY BECAUSE MY WIFE AND I TRAVELED TO SOUTH DAKOTA FROM MICHIGAN OVER THE JULY 4TH HOLIDAY. 1100 MILES EACH WAY. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED HAULING THE MOTORCYCLE TRAILER, OR THE CAMPER OVER THE SUMMER, A CRASH WOULD HAVE BEEN INEVITABLE. I HOPE CHEVY STEPS UP AND RECALLS THE VEHICLES BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED IN ONE OF THESE VEHICLES. IF YOU OWN ONE, HAVE THE LINES REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. I WAS VERY LUCKY. SOMEONE IS BOUND NOT TO BE. THE BILL TO REPLACE THE BRAKE LINES WAS $818.50. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 118000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3GNFK16Z22G.

CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 2002 car safety problem was reported on Oct 16, 2013.CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 2002, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . VEHICLE DOES NOT WANT TO STOP WHEN TRAVELING AT LOW SPEEDS. PARKING IS SO HARD TO DO, THAT I PARK AT LEAST 4 SPACES FROM OTHER VEHICLES WHENEVER POSSIBLE. IT FEELS LIKE THE ABS IS KICKING IN WHEN IT SHOULDN'T BE. NO ABS LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THIS OCCURS. WHEN I AM TRAVELING SLOWLY DOWNHILL, PULLING INTO PARKING SPACES, STOPPING AT RED LIGHTS/STOP SIGNS, ETC. THE BRAKES WILL NOT ENGAGE PROPERLY, IT FEELS LIKE THE PEDAL IS PUSHING BACK AT ME, THE BRAKES MAKE A STRANGE GROWLING SOUND, AND THE VEHICLE REFUSES TO STOP. I HAVE TO PUMP THE BRAKES REPEATEDLY, AND SOMETIMES IT STILL WILL NOT STOP, SOMETIMES IT WILL BRAKE VERY SUDDENLY. WHEN PICKING UP/DROPPING OFF MY KIDS AT SCHOOL, I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INCIDENTS THAT WERE MERE INCHES FROM BECOMING TRAGEDIES. I HAVE NO OTHER VEHICLE TO CARRY MY 4 CHILDREN IN, OR I WOULD STOP USING THE VEHICLE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN IT. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE, HOWEVER MY VIN IS NOT PART OF IT (PER CHEVY CUSTOMER SERVICE 1-800-222-1020). I HAVE HAD THE BRAKE FLUID CHECKED OFTEN, I HAVE HAD BRAKE PADS REPLACED AS WELL, IT MADE NO DIFFERENCE. IT HAS NOW BECOME A REGULAR OCCURRENCE. I AM GOING TO SEE IF ANY SHOP NEARBY HAS DEALT WITH THIS BEFORE. PLEASE HELP. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 87200 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3GNFK16Z52G. Chevrolet Suburban 1500 2002 problem was reported in CHURCH HILL, TN. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. Vehicle had 8 CYLINDERS. FUEL TYPE: BIFUEL.
