Consumer Description

THE IGNITION DESIGN ON THE CHEVROLET SUBURBAN IS FLAWED. SOMETHING CAUSES THE BATTERY TO LEAK TO THE POINT OF TOTALLY CORRODING AWAY THE CABLES. THERE ARE NO WARNINGS, THE VEHICLE JUST STOPS. THE BATTERY ACID LEAKS INTO THE INTERNAL PART OF THE POSITIVE CABLE AND DESTROY THE CONNECTION. BECAUSE THE NEGATIVE CABLE IS DESIGN TO RUN UNDER THE POSITIVE TERMINAL, IT IS ALSO EFFECTED BY THE LEAK.
