2 Rear Suspension problem of the 1999 GMC Suburban

Failure Date: 02/28/1999

I have tried to resolve this with san bernadino GMC and inland valley GMC. No satisfaction yet. Brakes go out on an average of 5000-6000 miles. Now, GMC will not warranty them any longer because of my problems. Steering wheel noise has got better but not fixed yet. Had this since I have had the vehicle. Vibrating in rear end, occures after warm. Continouse problem.

3 Rear Suspension problem of the 1996 GMC Suburban

Failure Date: 12/02/1998

I've owned my GMC Suburban less than two years and have had two sets of brake pads put on the vehicle. The brakes still do not act properly. The last set of rear brakespads was due to the rear axle seal leaking fluid all over them. Last week the front brakes started vibrating upon stopping and they were replaced. I have owned several vehicles and I've never had this much trouble out of brakes.
