For a brand new Suburban I don't feel it should be having major part problems. No safety defect listed.

I've had this vehicle in for brake repairs at least 6 times since I bought it. It now has 26,500 miles. The brakes have been replaced 4 times, master cylinder replaced, proportioning valve replaced, and right side caliper replaced. I have also had the following replaced: Motor pulley, A/C compressor, tie rod, idler arm, pitman arm, coil in steering column, main belt, front differential gasket. Every time I take it in to the dealer, it seems that I am a pest........I will never own another GMC product, and I am seeking legal advice for a possible manufacturer buyback.

The A/C stunk; I felt insecure with the brakes soft most times.twice we drove 45 mi. To midway and they did not take the vehicle in, GMC said to go to nearest dealer.
