NHTSA Complaint #11544193 — 2017 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN

A Chevy Suburban is a vehicle made to transport large families. You would assume these are made with true utmost safety precautions in mind to protect families. At just over 47K miles on my vehicle, our transmission went out, even though we have regular maintenance completed on our vehicle. The check engine light came on while driving on the highway. Was able to make it to a shop who verified it was the transmission. Took it to the dealer who also confirmed it is the transmission, and their 4th one on a newer Chevy Suburban to come in just today. They said they have 37 on the lot with transmission issues on newer Chevys, and some blew out while driving. We were very fortunate it did not blow out while driving, but it’s unacceptable for a family car’s transmission to go out with so little mileage. This has to be a major defect and cause for concern.
