Delivery 7/3/06
Dead Battery 7/3/06 Batteries go dead. In your case, having been so close to delivey, I would bet dealer didn't charge while on lot, or it was dead in shipment and dealer only boosted to get it out of the lot.
Battery Replaced 7/4/06
On-Star Module malfunction 7/4/06 Early model gen 6 boxes had some problems. First time, I would bet they replaced with another early gen 6. Second time a revised gen 6 module
Replaced On-Star 8/10/06
Serpentine Belt Replaced 8/22/06 Very strange for a belt to go bad.
Door Rattle reported 8/22/06 still there
Total Brake Failure 9/11/06 This one....with the type of fluid circuits used nowadays, a total brake failure? For a total brake failure to happen, all the fluid in both circuits would have to dump. Sure it wasn't just an assist failure, in that the assist motor failed and you had non-assisted brakes? How did you stop the truck?
Wind noise roof marker lights 9/11/06 One reason why I will never have those lamps.
TPM sensor problem 10/17/06 Did the dealer replace a sensor, or just mark it on the repair order?
Driver door Harness came apart 1/8/07 Not sure how a door harness, attached to a door in a static position could come apart. More information...please. There are really no strains on a door harness attached to the metal door.
Transfer case overhaul 1/15/07 still being worked on Easy case to rebuild, are they waiting for parts? Might be some problems with parts not normally required getting in the supply pipe for GM of Canada or it might just be GM of Canada not stocking the parts (not uncommon).
The vehicle has not been off-roaded even though that was one reason for purchase. All mileage is highway.

I would be interested in other's opinions as to whether my expectations are too high. I know that in any manufacturing there is a probability that there will be the odd poorly made product, did I unfortunately purchase one?

I do have some questions....
