| Suspension problems |
On oct 11,2026, at approximately 105,106 miles, I was driving my 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 under 20 mph while entering a short designated turning lane at [location]. I felt a sudden, unexpected bump or jolt. The truck slid slightly and abruptly came to a complete stop, as though something had mechanically locked up. Immediately afterward, the dashboard displayed a “braking system failure” warning. A front wheel appeared collapsed underneath the truck, with substantial visible damage to the front suspension and surrounding components. The specific component that failed first and the initiating cause are unknown. I did not knowingly strike a curb, pothole, road debris, another vehicle, or another object before the incident. The truck has no aftermarket lift or leveling kit. I purchased it less than two weeks before this occurred. The wheel collapse, sliding, and sudden stop compromised my ability to safely control the truck and created a risk of collision with surrounding traffic. A similar event at higher speeds could have caused a serious crash. The truck is being towed to the selling dealership, which is covering the towing cost. I am seeking an independent GMC inspection and requesting preservation of damaged components and diagnostic data. Inspection availability can be coordinated with me and the dealership. At the time of this report, I have not received a confirmed mechanical diagnosis. Inspection by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or other parties: [state who has inspected it, or unknown]. The braking warning appeared immediately after the sudden stop. Earlier warning lights, messages, or symptoms: [describe any, state none if accurate, or unknown]. Photographs are available. I can provide inspection findings when available.
There is a clunking and popping noise on the rear suspension or spring leaf when going between 5-20 mph, there is no active recalls for this but there is a lot of people complaining about this problem and the dealer does not wants to take responsibility for this issue need help. They are forums online all over the country complaining about this issue.
