Suspension on other SRX years
No other SRX model year has enough reports of suspension for a sheet of its own. See every SRX year.
What this problem usually is
Suspension complaints are mostly about noise and handling: a clunk over bumps, a car that pulls to one side, a ride that bounces or leans more than it used to. The more serious reports describe a part breaking or coming loose, and that's where the recalls in this group are concentrated.
What got replaced
Few of these reports name the part that was replaced.
Recalls and investigations
2 recalls on the suspension system cover the 2015 model year. A recall on the same system isn't always the same failure, so read the defect text.
The rear suspension toe link adjuster may not have been tightened properly, which could result in a loose toe link.
On the affected vehicles, the jam nut in the rear suspension toe adjuster link may not be torqued to the proper specification. A loose toe adjuster link can cause the vehicle to sway or wander at highway speeds.

Is this a known problem?

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 3 of 29 reports involved a crash and 4 people were hurt. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
