This vehicle has a lot of problems, that started after the warranty ran out, under normal.

Extended warranty only benefits dealer.

Carfax indicates this vehicle was a lease in Michigan before I bought it.

Dealer not willing to make any concessions with repairs.

Fuel line came off pump 12000 miles.

Front wheel bearing replaced at 18000 miles.

This car seems to be a Monday morning car as a lot of little details were not completed by the factory, no paint on inside of fenders and hood, loose fuel line. Went back to dealer and found the cars made in Tarrytown NJ had no paint, but from elsewhere had been painted. The dealer has been great at fixing this car, but a new car shouldn't need this much work. Also this car has very poor gas mileage, about 16 mpg. I have a 1999 sierra V8 that gets 18 mpg!

My Engine crank seal was leaking at 25,000 miles.

The Bose stereo stopped functioning properly. More specific, the SCV (Speed compensated volume) quit.

The wiper control module has burned out twice before 35,000 miles. I barely use the wipers.

My front wheel bearings and hubs were shot at 43,000 miles.

The front window motor burned out at 25,000 miles.

I love the 4.3 engine reliability. You will never hear of problems with the "engine" of these vehicles; its just everything else goes bad!!

The interior is cramped, especially in the back. At most, 2 petite people can sit barely comfortable.

Maintenance is very easy. Being a mechanics son, I do my own work. Its pretty easy to change all of the fluids. The fuel filter is hard though.

Rad cracked in first year. Replaced under warranty.

Ignition Switch shorted out, leaving third gear as default. Replace under warranty.

Right front wheel bearing had to be replaced at 71094 KM $545 for the part, it is a sealed unit that can't be greased. Not under warranty.

Changing wheel bearings every 70,000 KM can get expensice. Why can't they be greased or the seals mad beter.
