I have had the ps pump, steering gear box, fuel pump, 4WD switch, and all rotors/ brakes replaced. My sunroof rubber seal had to be replaced. All my work has been done by a GM dealership from North Carolina, mo & wa. My vehicle has never been off road, it is more for looks. But I am not pleased with this $38,000 maintenance trap. I have all documented work and services.
