Engine Belts And Pulleys problems of the 1998 Chevrolet Suburban

Problem with brake failure from day one. 1st:original power steering pump that controls the brake pressure was replaced when pulley shaft broke. Lost all power and braking ability when the pump shaft broke. No brakes no steering. 2nd: since initial purchase I have had panic brake failure. When brakes are required at panic stop, the brake pedal will go all the way down to the floor. Brakes become inactive until pressure builds up and pedal regains original height. At that time the brakes will become active and start to slow the vehicle. This almost caused me to hit someone who jumped infront of my vehicle. Swerved to avoid incident. Have spoke to different dealers and all say that that is normal and nothing can be done. I have spoken to other Suburban owners who also have experienced the same problem and also to nothing wrong. 3rd problem is with steering system is too loose. Truck wanders at hwy speeds. Must continually readjust steering back and forth.

We still need our vehicle fixed!!! we got the runaround and were discouraged from pursuing the problem as the gm & gmpp customer service? employees kept trying to beat us down so we would give up. Gm & gmpp employees have done their best to discourage us from purchasing another gm product. Thank you, ian robins p. O. Box 9904 glendale, CA 91226 VIN #3gngk26j6wg132731 fixmysuburban@sbcglobal.
