: the contact stated that the 2005 Chevrolet Suburban has no quick exit from the third seat and the tailgate. It takes too much force to open from the inside. The vehicle is so long the side view mirrors do not show the road very well even after adjustments are made. The brakes on the vehicle take too much force to stop the vehicle in an emergency. Lastly, the pickup on the transmission is sluggish which is a concern in emergency conditions when accelerating from a stopped position. The contact spoke with the dealer, and was referred to the manufacturer because all issues are with the design of the vehicle.

General Motors recently announced an SUV/truck recall for defective and unsafe anti-lock brake systems. The recall went into effect in 14 cold-weather states and Canada...but it excluded Wisconsin!!!! it did so because GM said it didn't have enough complaints from Wisconsin. That's ludicrous! many here had the same problems as in Iowa, Michigan, and all the rest. I experienced the problem, took my 2001 Suburban to my GM dealer for repairs, and was told I'd be reimbursed subject to the recall. Then the Wisconsin exclusion was announced. Many people here will be operating unsafe vehicles...and that's not right! please help. Mark & sharon leider.

The antilock brakes come on at low speed, which is startling and increases stopping distance. This defect is acknowleged by General Motors, though they refuse to issue a recall. They tell me to pay for it myself. I am afraid that this defect will cause an accident.
