Engine replacement at 120,000 miles. I was told by mechanic that the 2020 Suburban's have a problem with the fuel injector wiring harness dry rotting and the sensor changing the engine from v8 to v6 when on highway going bad causing misfire in engine and ruining the engine.
Had to replace motor. Had to replace the vibrater in the seat. Had to replace transmission. Electric shorted.
My car shut off two times while driving. When you google the issue, it auto populates meaning that this is a very common issue with gm. It starts back to 2015 searches as well. Gm needs to recall their Suburbans for their cars turning off while driving which caused me to lose power steering, power brakes and anything that requires electrical.
The vehicle has 70,000 miles. The engine has failed and been replaced two times. We are on the third engine. The first time was in 2021 the second time was in 2024. I heard that others are having a similar issue. This is a 2020 . 6. 2l rst. The engine failed the first time while driving at high speed the car just stopped working. The second time we heard it failing and were able to drive it to the dealer where the engine fell apart in the parking lot the vehicle has had other issues too. Currently the wire harness has failed. This has happened several times but the dealer has not figured out a repair. Each time it’s failed while driving causing power steering to fail while driving. I don’t not trust my teen drivers around the vehicle or to drive.
