general problems of the 2002 Chevrolet Suburban

The circuit board under the drivers seat shorted out and caught on fire while the car was occupied.

We we were travelling at about 75 miles when the car shut down. All electrical status lights and the engine went off. We coasted to the side of the road, put the vehicle in park and it started right away.

Last year the odometer and gear selection display on my 2002 chevy Suburban would go out then a while later it would come back on. This went on for a couple of months with the display staying off for longer and longer times. Around December 2013, the display went out permanently. I took my 2002 Suburban for the required smog test on April 28,2014 and since there was no odometer mileage displayed ( even after pressing the odometer button with the engine off ), the technician had to put down "none" under mileage. The situation of not having a display for displaying what gear you are in is a safety issue! a person might accidently put the vehicle in drive instead of reverse. Also without an odometer, it is going to be hard to estimate the mileage when selling the vehicle.

2002 Suburban just stops while driving, no warning no lights on the dash or nothing it just stops. At different speeds. Changed injectors fuel filter pump and still the same problem even changed the flex fuel sensor. Some one will die because of this in the future if they haven't done so yet. I have researched this on the internet and a large number of people are having the same problem. Maybe its a commuter problem or something else but it needs to be looked at soon. Thank you.

Normal operation abs cycling when inching to a stop,on hwy operation abs cycles even when braking and there are no adverse conditions problem is sporadic at best for consequences it has not but could lead to accident. Had been taken to dealer for recall, sensors for abs were replaced. Problem is still present.

The contact owns a 2002 Chevrolet Suburban 2500. While driving, the vehicle stalled. A red warning light illuminated on the instrument control panel prior to the failure. Occasionally, the vehicle loses power steering and braking ability. The vehicle has been to numerous dealers, but no one could duplicate the failure. The manufacturer would not assist. The failure mileage was 92,000. Updated 6/9/08.

2002 chevy Suburban with 8. 1l motor randomly shuts down at highway speeds or in traffic without warning which causes loss of steering and braking. I have had 3 separate dealers look at it and the "codes" never reflect what happened. I even read the current NHTSA action pe06016 description to the service tech (as I write this my vehicle is in the shop for "engine losses all power and dies at highway speeds or no start and stalling conditions") and described these exact symptom and he said the codes don't reflect that.

Traveling 60 miles per hour at night, the consumer tried to put the fog lights on since it was foggy out and the head lights went off. The dome override button turns the headlights off. The consumer struck the barrier causing some damage to the vehicle. There is a design flaw with the vehicle deeming it unsafe.

While starting the vehicle it caught on fire. The fire department extinguished the fire. The vehicle was towed to a garage for inspection. The cause has not been determined at this time. Please provide further details.

The consumer stated that the vehicle had shut off while driving on the highway. The consumer was able to steer through the two lanes of traffic to get to the shoulder. The consumer was told that a fuse had blown, and couldn't give the consumers a reason why the fuse had blown, also there is a clicking noise in the dashboard as something is shortening out, the time clock is not keep proper time.
