The Suburban is everything we wanted out of a vehicle for our growing family. We love the new independent suspension and the over all look and feel of the Suburban. Now the bad the entertainment system is all based on HDMI plugs I tried everything to get it to work and the only thing that worked was a firestick. That is even shotty if you don't get the WIFI in the vehicle. The headphones they gave us dont connect and we had to take it to a dealer to get them to work and they even had some issues with it. We had to use other bluetooth headphones to work with the system. But alas the cargo area is awesome, the panoramic sun roof is beautiful and the power is exactly what we needed for us!

Broke down on a road trip out of town, undrivable,in a Saturday I made it to a dealer but no mechanic on that day no rental cars available so stuck at a hotel till Monday with my dog. I bought it for multiple state travel but now I learned the engine has defect that will break down over and over even after fixed as I need to drive 3,000 Miles per month for next 3 months, first new Chevy in 37 years of owning buying them never had any issues, so had to buy another car to get on my way for my son's graduation as I couldn't wait for repair to get done ,and can't trust engine in future for any more long distance travel.so I wasted 70,000 do not buy.

Multiple major issues within 6,000 miles

Own a '21 Suburban Z71. Have had multiple recalls and issues with Lifting/Lowering System. Major issue with Engine Lifter going out at 5,000 miles. Spent 2 weeks in shop awaiting parts and repair for Lifters and Rods and Gaskets. Just picked it up YESTERDAY and now the same Warning Light is already going off again after 24 hours! We spent $73K on this piece of garbage. Smaller issues with Paint peeling off the front fender after the 1st week of purchase. It looks awesome. Comfortable inside. But if it's in the shop all the time, it is useless. GM will only give us $45 for a rental. They claim. I still have not seen the money yet from the last 2 week repair.

I’ll be honest. We’re a Honda family. For years & years we have purchased nothing but Honda for the reliability, comfort & fuel economy. However, we now possess the need to tow, and Honda didn’t have a viable V8 option. After extensive research on large 3 row SUVs. We decided on the Suburban. For the 75k price tag, I admit, it could have more to set itself apart from the competition…. I mean, no LED brake lights?? Come on Chevy. With this being said, this SUV is awesome, we just turned over 18,000 miles, and I am blown away. Fit & finish is spectacular, and they really had a family in mind when crafting these SUVs. Driving it is pure fun, the roar of the engine along with its cloud like maneuverability are incredible. I will also add, the Bose audio surround sound is mesmerizing, far & away the best speaker system I’ve ever had. Why am I nervous? Reliability - reliability - reliability. After reading about others experiences with their 2021 model year Suburbans I am terrified. I do have the 100k mile bumper to bumper extended warranty. But lifter failures, leaks, suspension issues all appear to plague the 21’ - I am just hoping we got the good of the bunch, and they worked out issues for 22. We will have to see I guess. 9.5/10 EXCELLENT SUV for those who need a family hauler, as well as a tow machine, and want to do it with class. UPDATE: The only repair we have had is our windshield wiper motors went out @15,000 miles. Other than that it has been an incredibly solid SUV!

Engine failed before 5k miles

We had bought a 2021 Suburban RST in Dec 2020, my husband and I were our way to my surgery and check engine light came on and the SUV started shaking and making weird noises on the freeway. Get home the next day (Friday) and didn’t feel comfortable driving it..take it into Chevy that Tuesday and the whole engine failed and needed to be replaced (took over a month and kept giving us the runaround). Traded it in for a 4Runner because they told us this is a problem with all new Tahoe’s and Suburbans. Will never consider buying Chevy again. Waste of $70k.
