Air conditioning - after 100,000 miles i had to replace my air conditioning system due to leaks. now i am having problem with water leaking into my car. the replacement parts for the air conditioning are not properly made (in my opinion). there is no drain hose to the evaporator - just a lip - that is suppose to drain out onto the ground. the lip is not long enough to allow the water to dip properly. therefore, i kept getting water in my backseat floorboard.  view

Dt*: the contact stated that while driving at 15 mph and lower, the steering was difficult. there was also a popping noise in the steering column while turning either right or left. the vehicle was taken to a private repair shop, where it was determined that the rack and pinion needed replacing. there is a nhtsa recall # 02v286000. the vehicle was not included due to the vin.  view

I had a heavy pulsating of the steering column and brake pedal during routine braking i informed my dealer of this at 8500 miles and was informed this is normal. at 9,000 miles i was insistent that they look at my truck and they had to replace the front brake rotors, pads, torque member, replaced rear brake pads and machine the rear rotors, i was informed that this would need to be done about every 6,000 to 9,000 miles because the braking system is too small for a truck this size.  view

Check engine warning light would illuminate during normal vehicle operation and subsequent mechanical inspections could not detect the following impending problem. my family and i were returning from a weekend vacation in arizona on our way home. while driving through the middle of the desert just past the california/arizona state line i heard a loud "pop" and our vehicle lost power. we were towed back into needles, ca and it was determined that the fuel pump had failed. we were forced to stay the night in a local hotel as a new pump had to be installed in the gas tank. i have been informed that there have been numerous problems with suburban fuel pumps and some recalls have resulted from this situation. i would like to know if there is an avenue i can pursue for repair compensation as this was a costly replacement. sincerely, steve rodriguez.  view
