The left tire turned sideways, locking the steering system. The vehicle was equipped with factory stock suspension and GM 24-inch rims-Pre-Accident Diagnostic Negligence: The vehicle exhibited a severe front-end \"thumping noise\" within the warranty window. It was brought to Lucas Chevrolet on [XXX] (31,901 miles) and Burlington Chevrolet on [XXX] (with a \"Service 4WD\" light active). Both certified facilities failed to perform physical tear-downs or torque checks, releasing a hazardous vehicle. Burlington Chevrolet is currently ignoring all voicemails requesting my service records-Dangerous 20-Hour Roadside Abandonment: Chevrolet Roadside Assistance left the driver stranded on a live highway shoulder for 2.5 hours in rush-hour traffic and darkness. Due to unsafe conditions, the driver was forced to leave the vehicle for an unassisted tow. Because roadside repeatedly sent wrong equipment for a collapsed suspension, the vehicle sat overnight and was not delivered to the dealer until 21 hours later-Evidence Preservation Hazard: Dealership Director Bob called the consumer to explicitly direct them not to hire legal counsel. Following this call, the dealership unilaterally changed writing from a \"Customer Satisfaction Guarantee\" to a \"Goodwill Repair\" and Service Manager Denny DiRenzo levied a $150 core charge on the steering rack. This fee acts as a financial barrier to force the surrender and destruction of the physical evidence. GM is also refusing to inspect the remaining three ball joints. Investigate Manufacturing Defect: Cross-reference this structural collapse with active wheel hub bolt recalls, Wave the $150 core, investigate parts, buy back, create recall for hub bolts and upper control ar INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2025","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"SUBURBAN 1500","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
