Consumer Description

From 2015-2024 suburbans have transmission and engine failures or issues. I’ve been told due to plastic parts in the transmission that is the big problem. My transmission has started messing up and I have not been the only one who has had issues. Chevrolet should be made to recall Suburbans and Tahoes 2015-2024 to place new engines and transmission when issues start for free. It is awful that it has not been made aware to the nhtsa to push this to happen sooner. Especially when the vehicle pulls no codes or lights or even gives you a warning before complete failure happens. People can get serious injured or killed if complete failure happened on a major highway or interstate.
