While vacationing into the North Carolina Mountains, pulling a 24 foot travel trailer with a 94 suburban, rear end gave out stranding vehicle in Sylva NC. Dealershp there, rebuilt rear end at a moderate cost of $1400. Oh well, vehicle had 100,000 miles on it. Rear ends always go around then anyway. It gets better. The new rear burned up in 200 miles, stranding family in Buford Georgia for 3 days. Another $1400 dollars because 2nd dealer claimed workmanship error in North Carolina, not covered under warranty. Guess what, stranded again in Valdosta Georgia, another 300 miles, rear blown out. Vehicle towed back to Buford, North of Atlanta, camper stranded in Valdosta. I rented a car and drove back to Ft Lauderdale, Fl, truck and camper left in Ga. Oh, did I mention I also blew a heater core in Macon, Ga and a leaf spring and tire on the trailer in Sycamore Ga. Still in litigation with GM.
