 I have attempted to get these issues repaired and have sent letters, but the chey dealers will not get involved, nor will the dealer i bought it from agree to research it any farther. i have spent over $500.00 in front end parts, exhaust parts and it is still there. i have owned 3 other suburbans and this is the worst driving one i have ever had. are there any other ways to get this car to safely go down the road? it wanders all over and is unsafe to drive on a windy day.
 Vehicle has had eight parts repaired or replaced within first 18,000 miles.
