Noticed a noise in the front suspension and took it in to dealership to get looked at. Dealership inspected and told me some internal component of the strut had failed and it wasn't operating correctly. I asked if I could just continue to drive it and they told me it could be a safety issue if I didn't get it fixed. My vehicle only has 39,000 miles and I found it very odd for this component to fail with such low mileage. After doing a little research, it turns out there are many reports of both the front and rear suspension components failing on these vehicle when they were not very old and had low mileage.

THE REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS NEED TO BE REPLACED AT 43000 MILES. THESE ARE ELECTRONIC MAGNETIC RHEALOGICAL SHOCKS AND COST OVER $600 EACH!! THIS SEEMS LIKE AN ABNORMAL ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY GM. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE CARS AND SINCE THE PART NUMBER HAS CHANGED IT SEEMS THAT GM KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE.

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON IN THE CAR AND I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AS SOON AS AN APPOINTMENT BECAME AVAILABLE. AFTER A FEW HOURS OF DIAGNOSIS, CHEVROLET SERVICE DETERMINED THERE WAS A LOOSE WIRE AND IT WAS REPAIRED. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT MY CAR WAS OUT OF SERVICE FOR TWO DAYS WHILE THE ISSUE WAS BEING DIAGNOSED AND I HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. I THINK THIS TYPE OF SAFETY REPAIR SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER EXCLUSIVE OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD.
