NHTSA complaint: 2015 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN — SERVICE BRAKES
MY CONDENSER WENT OUT AT 96K. I CONTACTED GM AND THEY STATED THAT THEY HAD A RECALL ON THE CONDENSER. TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO A GM/CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THEY BEGAN TO INFORM ME THAT THE RECALL ONLY IS FOR VEHICLES LESS THAN 60K. THEY STATED THAT GM KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM BUT DUE TO MILEAGE MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED. DUE TO LIVING IN THE SOUTH I CAN NOT AFFORD TO HAVE A CAR AND NOT HAVE AIR. SO WE FIXED THE CONDENSER OUT OF POCKET. 1ST-THE CONDENSER PART WAS ON A NATIONAL BACK ORDER AND THEY STATED THAT IT COULD TAKE UP TO A MONTH TO RECEIVE THE PART. ALERT THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE MANUFACTORY MAKING CONDENSERS FOR GM CARS. 2ND-THE PART WAS $200-300, ALTHOUGH THE SERVICE WAS $1100. 3RD-6 MONTHS AFTER THE REPLACEMENT OF THE CONDENSER AND ALL WORKING FINE, PAYING OUT OF POCKET. THE TRANSMISSION GOES OUT AND THE CONNECTION IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REPLACEMENT OF THE CONDENSER. GM IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BUT ONLY WANTS TO ASSIST WITH PEOPLE WHO MILEAGE IS LESS THAN 60K. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND GM HAS NOT TAKEN OWNERSHIP! TOTAL COST IN 2YRS FOR REPAIRING AND FIXING 1PART THAT LEAD TO 3PARTS $4.5K.
