Pulls to one side by model year
What owners say
I purchased a 1999 suburban on feb. 28, 2004. When we test drove the vehicle it did not seem to have any problems. On the way home it started wandering all over the road and the steering wheel would jerk. We thought maybe it needed power steering fluid or perhaps tires. On march 11, 2004(two weeks later) I was was driving down the highway and glanced down at my clock. When I looked back up the vehicle had veered into the wrong lane. When I tried to get back into my lane the steering wheel jerked to the right, way over correcting itsself. I tried to straighten it back out but it overcorrected again and caused me to go into the ditch and roll.
While driving at 20 MPH brakes failed. The steering wheel pulled to the right. Brake pedal went the floor, causing extended stopping distance.
Vehicle pulls to the left when braking. Ph
This tire was making a noise and pulling to the right while driving on july 20, 2002. I went to get a front end alignment due to the pulling, and was told my alignment was okay, but the problem was my right front tire, that the tread was separating inside. As a result I replaced all four firestone tires with goodyear tires. A friend had a slightly smaller firestone steeltex tire actually separate this summer while on a trip. I have kept the tire from my suburban and it is available for inspection.

We purchased the vechicle used from the dealer listed. Vehicle has been in for brake problems when wheels are wet they shutter and lock up. The battery cracked and leaked all over the battery tray and brake lines and other frame componets. The rear door dome light switch shorted out. The front end has been aligned several times for the wheels pulling to the left. The A/C air barly comes out of the front dash vents. The rear end is positive traction and when making a turn it makes a popiing noise.
Rotors heat/cracked, replaced twice; pads replaced 5 times in first 35,000 miles,pulls right.
While driving the vehicle pulls to the right or left, the manufacturer has been contacted. Nlm
While driving vehicle completely shuted down which LED to loss of steering. Also, brakes malfunctioned vehicle pulled to the right very hard. Please provide any further information.
This vehicle has had numerous brake jobs done at fenton motors. When using the brakes the vehicle will pull to the right.we have had the vehicle in over seven times to fix the brakes. The brakes will work for awhile and then the same problems will happen again. Fentons have not been very helpful with this problem and this vehicle should be lemoned. I would hate for some new owner to have the same problem and possible to kill someone or be killed because of the brakes.
While driving at any speed and activating the brake system vehicle will pull to left or right unexpectedly. Dealership has examined vehicle numerous times, and has been unable to remedy the problem by replacing brake rotors/ steering box, and brake calipers. Please provide any additional information / documentation.
