2015 Chevrolet Suburban consumer reviews

This is my third consecutive Suburban. My first was a 2001 Z71 which I purchased used in 2005 and kept until 2018. If it weren't for the ravages of road salt, I would still own that vehicle and it still ran perfectly when we sold it, it was just getting rusty. The second Suburban was a clean South Carolina 2014 LTZ. We assumed that this vehicle was a step forward but as we discovered, this vehicle was somewhat of a step backward from the 2001. The quality control on some interior parts was sub par, particularly the plastics and the dash boards all crack and GM won't pay to fix them. The last factory GPS update was 2016 and there are no plans for a newer disc. Also, the 5.3 liter engine in the 2010-2014 models is coming under a class action lawsuit soon for numerous oil consumption problems. This vehicle and a friends using the same engine, were, and still are, consuming oil. The engine and transmission together were very sluggish on acceleration as well. I would not recommend the 2007-2014 Suburban, particularly not a 2010-2014. Enter the restyled 2015 Suburban with the new Gen V 5.3 liter engine. We bought ours used a few months ago and traded the 2014 after owning it for only 15 months. Having owned three Suburbans now, I can tell you GM did a heck of a job on designing this vehicle. The quality control is certainly equal to the high end luxury cars and the interior styling is beautiful. The hearty paint feels a half inch thick. Ours is a 2015 LTZ 4WD with a black exterior and a two tone tan and brown interior with the factory wood grain trim, absolutely gorgeous. The LTZ has an easy to view 8 inch video screen and the GPS is currently updated to 2019 by GM. The ride is amazingly comfortable for any vehicle let alone a 4WD truck, even better than the 2014 2WD we owned. The Gen V 5.3 liter engine is all new and does not have the oil consumption problems of the Gen IV previously used. It also has a considerable increase in horsepower and torque and is considerably faster on acceleration and shifting. If that wasn't enough, it also gets about 2 MPG more than the Gen IV in the same vehicle. I average 18.3 in the city driving to work, that is an unheard of number from a full size SUV. So, if you are considering a Suburban, Yukon or Escalade, and you can afford to do so, I would suggest you only consider the 2015 and up model years based on my experience in owning the past three generations of them. I only paid $500 more for our top of the line, fully loaded 2015 LTZ 4WD with less miles than I did for our pretty similarly equipped 2014 LTZ 2WD. The vehicle had a few minor issues when we purchased it and the dealer repaired them at no charge to us, they did very good in our book

The Chevrolet Suburban is an awesome vehicle that is perfect for my family. We would not really consider any other vehicle for our use in the future.

We've had 2 previous Suburbans, and we wouldn't want anything else for our family vehicle, it has so much room and it's so big we feel safe when we drive it. We love all the features this new one has more then the other 2 we've owned. We are happy campers! :D

Great spacious, performance, comfort and rugged luxury. New drivetrain in the latest model is smooth and solid. Durable and unfragile. Tough robust Large SUVu k

Exceeds my expectations It’s a very wonderful car it has enough seats for the family and it’s good for road trips. My family loves this car

This suv has a lot of comfort and a lot of features that I am not used to having along with the safety features that comes with it.

It’s roomy, comfortable, has the most up to date technology but I’ve had to replace the back hatch mechanism 2 times, replaced 2 fuel injectors, replaced the battery, replaced the air conditioning unit and now I’m being told my transmission needs to be replaced. This car has been the worst car mechanically I’ve owned in my 30+ years of driving.

This Suburban is perfect in all ways except for very little leg room in the third seat. Except for the third seat my Suburban meets or exceeds all my expectations

I love this car, its very confortable, its drives very smooth and the space inside is amazing I bought it almost new from the dealer with 2000 miles!!

The worst car not rellable that I ever owned ! This is ridiculous, just had to a new engine on a 137.000, only, 2015 SUV !
