1999 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 Problems

BRAKE LINES RUSTED THROUGH FRONT PASSENGER SIDE CAUSING MINOR ACCIDENT DEC 2015 SEPARATE INCIDENT:: HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL LINE RUSTED THROUGH CAUSING FUEL TO SPRAY AROUND THE FRONT OF GAS TANK AREA UNNOTICED FOR 2 TRIPS. THANKFULLY NO FIRE RESULTED.

THE SUV DOES NOT STOP AND THE ABS ACTIVATES WHEN COMING TO A STOP (APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH). I NOTICED THERE IS GM RECALL NO. 05068 BUT MY MODEL IS NOT INCLUDED. THAT IS STRANGE BECAUSE ALL OF THE SUV AND PICKUP TRUCKS AROUND THAT TIME ARE INCLUDED, MY MODEL IS NOT. ABS LIGHT SOMETIMES IS ON AND SOMETIMES NOT DURING THESE EPISODES. THIS SAFETY ISSUE HAPPENS PERIODICALLY OVER MANY YEARS WITH THIS VEHICLE.

PASSLOCK FAILURE. CHEVY SUBURBAN FAILS TO START LEAVES DRIVER STRANDED. PASSIVE SECURITY SYSTEM (PASSLOCK) BLOCKS FUEL SO VEHICLE WILL NOT START. PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND NOT DETECTABLE BY MECHANICS. CHEVY DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENTS SAY THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF PROBLEM. THERE IS HOWEVER THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ON INTERNET. *TR

ABOUT ONCE EVERY 7-8 MONTHS THE POWER DOOR LOCKS ON MY 1999 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN K1500 FAIL. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE DOORS DO NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE OR FROM THE OUTSIDE AT TIMES. IN CASE OF A FIRE OR ACCIDENT YOU CAN REMAIN TRAPPED INSIDE. I HAVE REPLACED THEM SEVERAL TIMES. THE FIVE ACTUATORS FROM AC DELCO TAKE TURNS GOING BAD. I HAVE REPLACED THEM AT LEAST 2X IN THE TWO YEARS I HAVE OWNED THE TRUCK. *TR

1999 CHEVY SUBURBAN: PASSENGER SIDE BACK DOOR, DIFFICULTY IN OPENING DOOR FROM THE INSIDE, HAVE TO ROLL WINDOW DOWN AND OPEN FROM OUTSIDE, SEEMS TO JAM/GET STUCK AND WON'T OPEN!!! THIS HAPPENS QUIT FREQUENTLY... *TR

THE SEALTBELT RESTRAINT LOCKING SYSTEM IS FAULTY AND THIS HAD TO HAVE BEEN KNOWN DURING AND AFTER VEHICLE PRODUCTION .THE SEATBELTS WITH PASSENGERS TRRDTRAUNEF TRAVELS TO FAR FORWARD WHICH WOULD END UP IN DEATH OR VERY BAD HEAD AND NECK INJURIES BECAUSE THE SEATBELTS DO NOT LOCK WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED HARD OR FORWARD MOMENTUM IS STOPPED VERY SUDDENLY! I HAVE TRIED TO CAUSE A LOCK ACTION BY PULLING ON SEATBELTS VERY QUICKLY AND FORCEFULLY WITH VEHICLE SITTING PARKED AND ALSO WHILE DRIVING TO SLAM THE BRAKES TO CAUSE A FAST LOCK ON SEATBELTS AND NO AFFECT WAS APPARENT TO SAFELY RESTRAIN ADULTSADULTS,CHILDREN,OR EVEN NEWBORNS IN THE CAR SEATSEAT.THIS IS UNSAFE AND WITH AIRBAG SYSTEM IN THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE THIS WILL LEAD TO DEATH IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH!

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT STATED WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED AT A LOW SPEEDS THE ANTILOCK SYSTEM CAME ON AND CAUSED THE BRAKES TO FAIL. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH THE POWER STEERING FAILED. THERE WAS A PLASTIC ELECTRONIC VARIABLE ORIFICE RING WITH WIRES ATTACHED TO THE STEERING SENSOR WHICH CAUSED THE STEERING TO BE UNCONTROLLABLE WHEN DRIVING. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR HIS VIN ON ANY OF THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 197,000.

AFTER I PUT 55$ WORTH OF GAS IN THE TRUCK IT WOULD NOT START. I WAITED ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES AND IT FINALLY STARTED.HOWEVER,AS I WAS DRIVING,NOT EVEN 5 MILES FROM THE GAS STATION,THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF AT 45 MPH. I PULLED OVER AND KEPT TRYING TO START THE TRUCK. IT WAS CRANKING BUT WOULD NOT START. AFTER ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES TRUCK DID START RIGHT BACK UP.THEN,NOT EVEN ANOTHER 5 MILES THE TRUCK SHUT OFF AGAIN. THIS TIME I WAITED 20 MINUTES AND THE TRUCK STARTED RIGHT BACK UP.I LEFT IT PARKED FOR ABOUT 5 WKS THEN HAD THE CAMSHAFTSENSOR REPLACED AS WELL AS THE FUEL PUMP AND THE FUEL FILTER REPLACED,ONLY THIS TIME THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WAS IN ONCE THESE 3 PARTS WERE REPLACED. SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WAS NEVER ON BEFORE THESE ISSUES.IVE HAD IT SCANNED AND IT READ 5 DIFFERENT CODES,INCLUDING THE CAM SHAFT SENSOR,SPEED SENSORS ON BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE ALONG WITH 2 MORE THAT WEREN'T GIVEN TO ME. DROVE IT A SHORT DISTANCE (7 MILES)& IT SHUT OF AGAIN 55 MPH ON A BUSY STREET.HAD THE CODES CLEARED AND DROVE IT SHORT DISTANCES IN THE LAST 3 DAYS AND TODAY WHEN I PULLED UP TO A REDLIGHT IT BEGAN ACTING AS IF IT WERE GONNA SHUT OFF.I CAME BACK HOME AND PARKED IT AND DONT PLAN ON DRIVING ANYWHERE ELSE UNTIL SOMEONE CAN GIVE ME AN EXACT ANSWER TO THE PROBLEM AND I HAVE IT FIXED!! I WAS TOLD BY 2 MECHANICS THAT THEY COULDNT FIND AN ISSUE!!

I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM THAT THE PERSON STATED ABOUT THE ABS BRAKING ON HER 99...EVEN WHEN MY TRUCK WAS STILL UNDER WARRENTY THE DEALER SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG AND BLAMED IT ON THE WAY I DROVE...LIKE HE KNOWS HOW I DRIVE!!!....I DID FIND THAT THEIR WAS RECALL ON OTHEM AND THE DEALER SAID MY TRUCK WAS NOT INCLUDED ..IN IT ...WELL IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN AND SHOULD BE...DOESNT MATTER THE CONDITIONS OF THE ROAD THEY KICK IN WHENEVER THEY FEEL LIKE IT..ONCE IT HAPPENED AND I SLID RIGHT OUT INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC AND I WAS STILL TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG...I THINK THAT THE DEALER NEVER CARED....I HAVE 104TH ON MY TRUCK NOW AT 102TH I REPLACED THEN ENGINE DUE TO 2 BROKEN LIFTERS....I ALSO HAVE A TRANNIE PROBLEM WHILE UNDER WARRENTY AND AGAIN THE DEALER REFUSED TO ADMIT A PROBLEM AND I BROUGHT IT TO A AAA CERT. SHOP AND THEY TOO ALSO REFUSED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM...2 1/2 MONTHS AFTER THE WARRENTY EXPIRED I COMPLETLY LOST MY TRANSMISSION AND HAD MY CHILDREN IN THE TRUCK WHEN IT HAPPENED!!!..AND AGAIN THE SHOPS THAT I WENT TO BOTH STILL WOULDN'T ACKNOWLEDGE THERE WAS A PROBLEM AND SAID I WAS A PROBLEM CUSTOMER!!! I COMPLAINED TO THE WARRENTLY PLACE AND THEY TOO DID NOTHING ABOUT .... REMIND ME AGAIN WHY WE HAVE WARRENTIES!!! THIS STARTED IN 2002 WITH THESE ISSUES AND THE DEALER REFUSED TO TAKE BACK THE VEHICLE!! AND NOW IN 2009 I STILL HAVE ISSUES WITH THE ABS. *TR

VEHICLE HAS JUST OVER 200,000 MILES. AT ABOUT 150,000 MILES HAD DRIVERS SIDE DOOR UNABLE TO OPEN FROM INSIDE, HAD TO ROLL DOWN WINDOW TO OPEN FROM EXT'R HANDLE. AT SAME TIME BACK PASSENGER DOOR AND WINDOW WOULD NOT OPEN. SPENT WAY TOO MUCH $ WITH CHEV DEALER TO FIX, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. NOW AT 200K MILES SAME THING AGAIN WITH DRIVER SIDE DOOR, WON'T OPEN FROM INSIDE, AND DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WILL NOT GO DOWN (FAILED AT SAME TIME). AM WRITING THIS ON BEHALF OF MY 89 Y/O MOTHER AND 93 Y/O FATHER WHO OWN THE VEHICLE IN AURORA, MO. MOM GOT TRAPPED IN THE CAR AND HAD TO HAVE HELP GETTING OUT THROUGH PASSENGER SIDE - WHEN YOU ARE 89 YEARS OLD IT IS DIFFICULT TO CRAWL OVER A CONSOLE. WILL BE CONTACTING GM TO SEE IF THEY WILL OFFER TO HELP OR BLOW US OFF. IF LATTER CAN GUARANTEE I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GM PRODUCT; HAD SIMILAR ISSUES WITH 1995 GMC 4WD PICKUP I HAD OWNED, DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE FAILED, INSIDE AND OUT, AND COST SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS TO REPAIR. NO RELIEF FROM GM EITHER.

THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR LOCK FAILED IN THE LOCKED POSITION. THE AUTO LOCKS DO NOT AFFECT IT NOR CAN THE LOCK BE MANUALLY UNLOCKED FROM THE INSIDE. THE DOOR CANNOT BE OPENED AT ALL FROM INSIDE OR OUT. NO INDICATION OF BREAKAGE OCCURRED, IT JUST FROZE UP ONE DAY WITH NORMAL USE.

AIR BAG NON DEPLOYMENT IN FRONTAL IMPACT ABOVE 35 MPH. SPOUSE REARENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEED. STRONG ENOUGH TO WARP FRAME OF 1999 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN C1500 LT. *TR

1) WHILE STOPPING, AN UNWANTED ACTIVATION OF THE ABS SYSTEM OCCURRED AT APPROXIMATELY 8 MPH. 2) OUR VEHICLE ALMOST CRASHED INTO BACK OF VEHICLE IN FRONT OF US BECAUSE OUR VEHICLE DID NOT STOP IN THE EXPECTED DISTANCE. 3) DEALER CLEANED ABS SENSORS. *NM

SEABELTS ON THIS MODEL SEEM TO NOT WORK AS THEY SHOULD. IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION, OR A QUICK STOP SEATBELTS DON'T STOP THE PASSENGERS IN VEHICLE UNTIL SEAT BELT IS FULLY EXTENDED. ALL OTHER VEHICLES THAT I OWN WORK FINE AND LOCKING MECHANISM FOR SEATBELTS WORK AS DESIGNED. THESE SEABELTS ON THIS CHEVROLET SUBURBAN ARE NOT PERFORMING AS REQUIRED AND THE LOCKING MECHANISM SEEMS TO BE FAULTY. CURRENTLY THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS MODEL/VIN # VEHICLE BUT IT ONLY CONVERS THE PASSENGER RESTRAINT SYSTEM IN REGARDS TO THE NECK EXTENSION. MY CONCERN IS THAT ALL SEATBELTS ON THIS VEHICLE COULD BE FAULTY TOO AND COULD INJURE ALL PASSANGERS IN A COLLISION. REQUEST TO HAVE MANUFACTURE DO A ONE TIME INSPECTION ON SEATBELTS TO DETERMINE IF INDEED LOCKING MECHANISMS ON THESE MODELS ARE FAULTY AT NOT COST TO THE COMSUMER.

TURNING OUT OF MY OFFICE PARKING LOT I HEARD A "POP" - - - AS I PROCEEDED DOWN THE ROAD I NOTICED A "FUNNY WIGGLE" WHEN I CHANGED LANES OR TURNED - - - I PULLED OFF THE ROAD INTO A LARGE PARKING LOT AND BEGAN INSPECTING THE FRONT SUSPENSION - - - THEN I NOTICED THAT THE FRONT STABILIZER BAR WAS BROKEN COMPLETELY IN TWO WHERE IT MEETS THE FRAME ON THE PASSENGER SIDE - - - GLAD I WAS NOT GOING 70MPH ON THE INTERSTATE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500. WHILE DRIVING 5-10 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL EXTENDED TO THE FLOOR WHEN DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE MADE A ROARING NOISE. THE VEHICLE BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STOP. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE SENSORS WERE CORRODED AND THE HUBS FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 60,810 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE CONSUMER STATED GM REFUSES TO COVER THIS AND STATED THEY DON'T HAVE A RECALL ON THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE, HOWEVER THE CONSUMER ENCLOSED THE RECALL INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE DEFECT. UPDATED 10/03/07 *TR

I BOUGHT A NEW 1999 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500LT IN JANUARY 2000. WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR, THE BRAKES HAD TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE ENDURED THIS ANNUAL REPLACEMENT OF BRAKES EVER SINCE. SIX REPLACEMENTS HAVE OCCURRED AND NOW WE ARE LOOKING AT THE 7TH. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 75,000 MILES. IT IS SERVICED AT BREDAMAN CHEVROLET IN PARK RIDGE, IL EACH TIME. EACH TIME THEY TELL ME NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE REPLACED IT TWICE FOR FREE. *JB
