BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE A FEW DAYS BEFORE THE FIRST INCIDENT. I DROVE IT HOME FROM OVER TWO HOURS AWAY, DROVE IT ALL AROUND THE DAY BEFORE, NO PROBLEMS. THEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN A BYPASS AT ABOUT 60 MILES AN HOUR AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF! I HAD NO POWER STEERING, NOTHING! I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER, SHUT IT OFF AND ONCE I TURNED IT BACK OVER IT WAS JUST FINE. SO I CAUTIOUSLY STARTED DRIVING, IT HAPPENED AGAIN A FEW MILES DOWN THE ROAD ONLY THIS TIME IT STALLED THEN REGAINED POWER AND QUICKLY SHUT OFF AGAIN. ONCE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, IT WAS FINE, IT DID THIS TO ME 5 TIMES WITHIN 5 MILES. I ALMOST GOT HIT TWO OF THOSE TIMES BY OTHER VEHICLES, ONCE WHEN I WAS TURNING ONTO A ROAD. I AM GLAD MY KIDS WERE NOT IN IT. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE ON TWO LANE ROADS WITHOUT ROOM TO PULL OVER. *TR

Mileage: 174,348

THE SPEEDOMETER IS COMPLETELY GONE ALONG WITH SEVERAL GAUGES SUCH AS THE OIL, GAS, AND RPM METERS. I AM UNABLE TO TELL HOW MUCH GAS I HAVE OR HOW FAST I AM GOING. THIS HAS HAPPENED A LOT TO THESE VEHICLES OVER THE PAST 10 YEARS. GM OFFERED A REPAIR BUT ONLY FOR VEHICLES WHO WERE NOT OVER A CERTAIN MILEAGE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED IN ALL VEHICLES. ADDITIONAL, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS OUT OF WHACK. MY HEATED SEATS TURN ALL THE WAY UP TO HIGH WITHOUT ME PRESSING ANYTHING. MY TV SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING. EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE FALLING APART. *TT

AT RANDOM YOU WILL JUST BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND A MESSAGE COMES ON THAT SAYS REDUCE ENGINE POWER AND THE T/C LIGHT COMES ON ALONG WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, IS VERY UNSAFE, AND IS GETTING WORSE. WE HAVE HAD WORK DONE TO TRY AND FIX THE PROBLEM BUT ITS STILL HAPPENING. WE DON'T HAVE TONS OF MONEY TO FIX THIS, LIVE IN THE COUNTRY, AND HAVE 5 KIDS. THIS IS OUR ONLY TRANSPORTATION AND WE HAVE A RATHER LARGE LOAN ON THE THING AND ITS TURNING INTO YARD ART. *TR

2004 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN GOES INTO REDUCED POWER ENGINE W/O REASON CHANGE THE ENGINE, BECAUSE HIGH MILES, CHANGE TRANSMISSION, CHANGE THROTTLE BODY,CHANGE GAS PEDAL MODULE, CHANGE CATALYTIC CONVERTER SPEND OVER 4,000 ON THE TRUCK WITHOUT COUNTING THE ACCIDENT CAN OCCUR IN THE INTERSTATE 78 WEST BECAUSE OF THE LOST OF POWER, DEALERS DON'T KNOW WHAT IS THE PROBLEM NEITHER THE LOCAL MECHANICS CAN YOU PLEASE TAKE ACTION IN THIS MATTER AND READ AT EDMONDS.COM AND SEE ALL THE COMPLAINS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM

Mileage: 350,000

ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS ARE NOT WORKING. ODOMETER, FUEL GAUGE, OIL GAUGE, BATTERY GAUGE, TEMPERATURE GAUGE DO NOT WORK - THE ONLY GAUGE THAT DOES WORK IS THE SPEEDOMETER. LOOKING AT ALL THE COMPLAINTS, I SHOULD ASSUME THE SPEEDOMETER WILL BE GOING OUT. THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS - IT READS 250 - 260 ALL THE TIME. YOU DO NOT KNOW IF YOUR ARE RUNNING HOT OR NOT. THE GAS GAUGE NEEDLE IS TOTALLY UPSET DOWN - WE HAVE TO GO OFF OUR "HOW MANY MILES 'TIL WE RUN OUT GO GAS" SCREEN TO DETERMINE HOW MUCH GAS WE HAVE. I'VE REPLACED THE POWER STEERING PUMP - $775, THE CHIP FOR THE GAS PEDAL (WHEN OUT - YOU COULD NOT GO ANY FASTER THAN 10 MILES PER HOUR $800), THE DRIVER SIDE LEATHER SEAT STARTED TO WEAR DOWN @ 40,000 MILES - NOW HAS A TEAR IN IT, THE STEERING COLUMN MAKES A KNOCKING NOISE, THE DASH MAKES A POPPING NOISE WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONER IS ON, FRONT SEEM TO WEAR DOWN FAST, ETC. I COULD GO ON, BUT.......... IT SEEMS I GOT A LEMON. THIS WAS A $47,000 STICKER PRICED CAR - YOU WOULD THINK YOU WOULDN'T HAVE THIS MANY PROBLEMS. THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL PROBLEMS - SEEMS CHEV SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS - DANGEROUS. THESE ARE FAMILY - CHILDREN VEHICLES!!! *TR
