This truck has given us so many issues. We bought it used with 20k miles on it and we've had to replace the A/C compressor and now the transmission needs replacing at 83k miles. So extremely frustrating!!!

We have owned this car over 2 years now and we really love this car/truck! It has about 36000 miles and zero problems. In 40 years of driving this is the best road trip vehicle I have ever driven! Very comfortable, great road view, lots of seating and luggage room. Great sound system. Lots of nice electronic gadgets. Heads up display, lane keep assist, all system info in DIC, heated/cooled seats, heated wheel, auto wipers, auto high beams, magnetic syspension, etc.. Drives smooth and holds the road great. Requires very little driver input. Can't say enough good about this Suburban. 15.5 avg mpg, mostly city. 21 mpg hwy. Not bad for a full size 4x4 and we drive fairly fast. Update: We are now at 54000 miles. Still awesome/great full size SUV. No complaints. Great on long trips and amazing in the snow! I added a level lift to the front and slightly larger tires which caused mpg to drop about 1.5 mpg but we expected that. It looks better and its nice that our 4x4 SUV no longer scrapes parking lot cement stops or steep driveways. This vehicle has taken years of family use/abuse and still looks like new. All the leather is still in great condition after everything works as when new. Only oil and tires have needed maintenance so far. Under warranty we told dealer the engine makes a slight clicking noise so the they replaced all lifters. Also our insurance replace windshield to to chip due to a rock from passing truck. They used new GM (HUD) glass. This SUV still rides so nice and smooth. We love road trips in our Suburban! I keep vehicles forever and will update in a year or two.

My 4th Suburban in the last 10 years. I trade about every 3 years. I have the LT Signature edition. We took a 2800 mile trip to the Smoky Mtns in Nov. '17 and averaged 20.1 mpg! That includes a lot of mountain and curve driving and I was very pleased. The freeway driving was at 75 mph. That's about a 2.5 mpg increase over the '14 that I traded in with 55,000 mi with absolutely no problems. I have the cocoa/dune interior and I think that it is very classy and attractive. The only problem I have with the new style Suburban is the sloping rear floor. Twice we have had items roll out the back when the door was opened. One was a glass grocery jar that broke on the asphalt. I'm hoping that they address this issue on the next version. The ride is wonderful and this vehicle is made to take long trips. Jan. 21. Still have the '17 Suburban. Didn't drive as much in 2020 because of the China virus. Decided to keep it for another year as we only have 42,500 miles on it. Had 1 problem in the past year which is really the only real problem I've had going back 12 years and 4 different Suburbans. The electric button on the tailgate ceased to operate so that it wouldn't lift. Had to replace the cable which cost $500 with labor. Otherwise it's been a wonderful vehicle, but now I see that the '21 has the level rear floor, so I'll be looking at one of those next fall. Jan. 22. Still have the '17 Suburban and have had no problems in the past year. I ordered a new '21, but because of supply issues, it looks like I'm getting a '22. I now have 56,000 mi. on it and I couldn't believe the trade in value I received on the '17.

I own a 2004 suburban and I absolutely love it. we decided it was time to buy another car so we got another suburban. We bought it new and have owned it for three years and already it has had over $17,000 worth of warranty work done to it. While all this was going on we got told we were lying and that we were full of it by the dealership. Finally I've decided its time to get rid of the car from hell and I'm sure not getting a suburban!

Comfortable, quiet and a smooth drive. Averaged 23 mpg at 75 mph (no headwind). 3rd row is really for kids but we did hall adults 6 hours back there. Would be nice to have a jump seat in the 2nd row with a few more cup holders. Milage in town is doing good but drops when setting at the light. Storage is useful and plentifully. Traded a 2017 impala in on this with no regrets, of course we had a suburban since 1999.
