Tahoe & Suburban The power, space, and brutal towing ability make the Tahoe and its longer sibling, the Suburban, arguably the best full size SUV's on the market today.

Default new member new truck

whats up guys new member here hope to get lots of great advice and ideas from you guys. had several suvs in last few years

1991 grand Cherokee
1995 suburban
1999 ml320 wifes old car
2001 Mitsubishi Montero
a 2003 denali xl (my favorite vehicle until 8/17/2013)
and a 2004 Nissan armada

my last car the armada gave me problems for the entire 17months that I owned (bought it last winter) final straw was when I hit one of new York city's infamous potholes and my rear lower control arm broke 2 weeks ago. this is when I was informed of the EXTENSIVE rust underneath the truck that the previous owner did a great job of covering up with paint or whatever. after getting truck fixed and driving it I didn't feel safe hauling my family around so I traded it in. on 8/17/2013 I bought a chevy suburban ltz.....WOW....I have every available option except the power running boards. its only been one day and im in love. took the family on a drive and I didn't wanna go home. I'm wishing for a long trouble free relationship with this truck. So now the questions what should I be on alert for or any major issues with these trucks. I know about the oil consumption with some of them and I will definitely keep an eye out for that. thanks in advance oh 76,000 on odmeter

Welcome to the forum.

Other possible issues are cracked dash, door handles that are razor sharp due to untrimmed mold flash before plating, door lock actuators, AFM lifter problems, . . .
