| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Exceptionally dangerous spontaneous shearing of front left torsion bar. gmc must know of this problem, because they have completely redesigned the torsion bars, requiring a major retrofitting (at the owner's expense) of the van's cross frame member. fortunately for us, this major component of the suspension broke while the car was parked. other reports on the internet describe the part as breaking while driving, instantly dropping the left side of the car until the tire hits the wheel well and throwing the car violently to the left.*ak |
