THE INITIAL SYMPTOM HAS BEEN UPON STARTING THE ENGINE THE CLOCK RESETS TO 1:00 AND THE AIR CONDITIONER LIGHTS GLOW ON AND OFF(BUT THE A/C SWITCH IS OFF). THE NEXT SYMTOM IS WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE WILL JUST DIE UNEXPECTEDLY. THE SUBURBAN HAS BEEN TAKEN TO SEVERAL DEALERS. THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED 4 TIMES SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN MID-1996. THE BATTERY HAS LEAKED SO BADLY THAT PARTS UNDER THE AREA WHERE THE BATTERY SITS HAD TO BE REPLACED. BESIDES WHAT SEEMS TO BE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, THE BRAKES IN THE FRONT HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPLACED 4 TIMES. THIS LAST TIME THE ROTERS WERE REPLACED BECAUSE THE DEALER SAID THEY WERE OUT OF MFG. SPECIFICATIONS. BRAKES AND BATTERY REPAIR ARE NOT UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. EACH TRIP TO THE DEALER IS MORE $500.00. THE POTENTIAL FOR A LIFE ENDING ACCIDENT IS SO GREAT WHEN THESE SYSTEMS FAIL ON A VEHICLE....

IN FEBRUARY MY CAR DIED WHILE LEAVING A PARKING LOT. I TURNED OUT TO BE ACID CORROSION ON THE BATTERY. I HAVE ALREADY HAD TO HAVE MY POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE REPLACED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY DUE TO ACID CORROSION. EVEN AFTER CLEANING THE ACID OFF I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS AND WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE BATTERY EVEN THOUGH IT SAYS IT IS STILL GOOD. I KNOW OF ANOTHER SUBURBAN (95) ALSO HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.
