The passenger seat belt will no longer just click in. In order for us to get it to latch, you have to push down on the red button as your pushing the seat belt in, then it will latch. We bought this used and within 1-2 weeks this happened. But other things happened with the engine and that took priority. It was in the shop for almost 6 months. I'm not sure if the dealer/ previous seller knew about it and they were able to "fix" it so it worked when we bought it. (We are lied to on a lot of things) I'm afraid that it might not hold up in a crash if it's not buckling right.
VERY VERY VERY BAD AC CONDENSER TO COSTLY TO FIX
THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON WHEN DRIVING. ISSUES WITH AIRBAG WIRING UNDER SEAT. WIRING HARNESS IS ON BACK ORDER MEANING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. GM SHOULD BE RECALLING AND TAKING CARE OF THESE ISSUES. WHEN ONE BUYS A 2017 SUBURBAN AND PAYING OVER $40K YOU DON'T EXPECT TO BE INVESTING MONEY TO BE FIXING SAFETY ISSUES.
