“The suspension on my 2015 chevy Tahoe make the truck very bouncy. I have approx. 75,000 miles on it. When going down the road I feel every bump in the road and when going into curves it feel like I may loose control of the vehicle. With all the complaint about the suspension on this vehicle I feel that chevy should have a recall on this issue.”
NHTSA complaint #11186996, filed 2019-03, 75,000 miles“Our struts went out at 60k miles. We only owned the car for about 6 months and we bought it from a chevy dealership with only 1 other owner. We had to have them replaced and it cost $1500. We will never buy another chevy again. My husband's silverado has been nothing but a money pit as well. These expensive cars should last.”
NHTSA complaint #11219105, filed 2019-06, 55,000 miles“Vehicle has 65k on it. Most recently the front end started bouncing severely during normal driving conditions and bounces violently over rough road conditions. The vehicle can be difficult to control, especially for my wife, who is smaller in stature. I was advised by my mechanic that the front shocks/struts are leaking. Cost estimates are 1670 to 1920. Vehicle will be fixed on 9/27/19 because it cannot be driven otherwise.”
NHTSA complaint #11257111, filed 2019-09, 65,000 miles“My 2015 Tahoe ltz, with 73,000 miles, started riding rough and had noticeable bounce as I drove. Took it to the dealer I bought it from and they told me the rear shocks were bad/locked out and needed to be replaced - estimate to repair is $1700.”
NHTSA complaint #11253682, filed 2019-09, 73,000 miles“I have a 2015 chevy Tahoe ltz. Rides like crap even after I installed the $1800 front and rear struts. Its very rough at low or high speeds. Its very bouncy and dangerous. Ridiculous that a $65,000 luxury vehicle has such a bad design on the suspension!”
