Suspension on other Suburban years
No other Suburban model year has enough reports of suspension for a sheet of its own. See every Suburban 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
Owners who name the part that was replaced mention the struts or shocks (16 reports).
Recalls and investigations
No recall on the suspension system covers the 2015 model year as of Oct 2, 2026.

When it happens
The middle half of failures fell between 49,000 and 80,000 miles, from the 25 reports that gave a mileage.

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 1 of 29 reports involved a crash. 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.
File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation. How reports land on this sheet.
