What owners say
Stability traction control light keeps coming on while in motion. With major oil consumption problems. Just in regular driving I've had transmission, and rear differential work done fixed the problem for a few months now back again with flashing check engine light. Saying cylinder 6 misfiring. I've already sunk in over 4k in this after buying it last year in dec.of 2017. After reading comments this really should be a recall. With so many of the same concerns and complaints that have been listed.
I was driving on a city street and made a right turn onto another city street and the engine started running rough and idle rough, service stabilitrak light stayed on, service traction control, transmission jerks from 1st gear to 2nd gear, engine ticking/knocking, service engine light flashing, scan code came up as misfire on cylinder #4, took vehicle to repair shop and lifters were replaced among other things; see attached files.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet suburban 1500. The contact stated that the vehicle was jerking violently and the stability traction control sensor illuminated intermittently. Also, the contact mentioned that the check engine light illuminated and the steering wheel became difficult to maneuver. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who diagnosed that there had been thirty different codes on the computer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 130,000.
Tire pressure monitoring system was problematic for years. The display would light and message center would indicate all tires were low when none were by check of accurate gauge. This problem has finally been addressed at least temporarily. Check engine lights stay on. Vehicle has been to shop and dealer on multiple occasions. Tests have been run and the codes reset, to no avail. The check engine light is on and vehicle performance seems normal, however, the warning light remains useless for any "real" problem. Please consider the low mileage (currently 18,224) when considering problems.
Engine started idling rough and the 'engine light' came on and stayed on.then the next day, went to start car and it was really idling rough, sputtering, then stablitrak light and 'traction control off' light and ABS lights all came on. The car felt like it was going to die until about 20 MPH, then made a jerking motion and ran fine. This continued to happen until I took it to the shop. They kept it for a week, replaced the fuel pump, but this did not fix the problem. The car still runs rough and the lights still come on whenever I have to idle, intersections, etc... I have been reading and I am concerned that there is no fix for this problem. I believe it is a faulty engine/electrical issue and there needs to be a recall. This is completely dangerous, if my stabilitrak system goes off and I am on unstable ground, rain, snow, etc... It will cause my car to brake and I will loose control of my car. I am worried that it is going to die in an intersection, since it has a hard time coming out of an idle with any power.
While driving approx. 20 miles an hour there was a loud thud and the service engine light and the traction control light both came on at the same time. The engine began to miss on acceleration and shifting between 1st and 2nd gears was so rough it shook the truck. The truck is only 6 months old and has 9, 000 miles on it. The suburban was driven to the dealership for repairs it took 3 days for them to diagnose computer relay was affecting the traction control system and #7 cylinder had seized. The entire cam shaft is going to be replaced. Est. Work will take 7-10 days.
Stability light and traction control light on saying need serviced, check engine light on, transmission slips from 1st into 2nd, and vehicle makes noise making turns. Vehicle taken in for service but mechanic having trouble with codes. Vehicle is 07 suburban with 961 miles.
Dt*: the contact stated while driving 20 MPH, the check engine and the traction control light illuminated constantly. The engine then lost the majority of power and would not accelerate. The vehicle was moved to the side of the road, and was shut off. The vehicle was restarted after 10 minutes and driven to a residence. The vehicle was taken to a service dealer, who was unable to determine the problem. The manufacturer was also notified.
Car is 2007 chevrolet suburban - 2 months old. Check engine and check air bag lights came on. Then, next day car would not start and was jumped easily. After 2 days at dealership service dept., decided it was the cdm. 15 days later cdm came in but, service techs found 4-5 wires "burnt up". Wiring harness is broken. After 6 days wiring harness is in and being replaced currently. Dealership is not sure this will solve the problem.
