2015 Tahoe LTZ 109,450 miles on it. Recent purchase. It has had the suspension pump (not sure the correct term) and new shocks put on.m by the used car dealership I bought it from. Handling and riding was so much better until today, I now have the check suspension light coming on and the ride seems rough (bumpy) again. Sorry if my description is not the best, woman here and unfamiliar with the right terminology. Any advise, or insight.....I will take it to my local Chevy dealership to get a diagnosis.
Thank you

Check if the shocks were replaced with ACDelco units or cheapies from Amazon? If cheapies then I would not be surprised if they already failed. Save money and take it to your reputable independednt mechanic.

Get a good scanner on it that will read the suspension code to give you clues as to what it's complaining about.

Would the shocks go bad that quickly having been done only a few weeks?
I will call my regular mechanic!
Thank you!

Unfortunately to read that code you need a bi-directional scanner and they are on the low end around $500 and auto stores don’t have them for their free scans.

I’d just bring it back to the shop.
