Potential Buyer Concerned about Reliability

[OrangeCrush]

I have to agree with the rest of the guys. I've got over 70K miles on my '03 and the only problems I've had have been self induced. Incorrect settings when installing gears resulting in new diff unit, balance problem on drive shaft...blah, blah, blah.... all because of difficulties because of the lift kit (which was a freak and should have never happened)

Nonetheless, the only other issue is the sunroof, it still works, it's quirky and though I have an extended warranty, I haven't gotten around to fixing it yet.

Mechanically it's on the same level of any Yukon, Escalade, etc, etc. I sold my 1999 Yukon with 155K miles and other than the normal alternator, waterpump and suspension parts (also had a lift on it) it never left me stranded. I drove that thing everywhere.

Today I leave to Florida to visit family, this will be the 6th trip in the last year and a half and I've never had any issues.

I'm honestly not sure why the JD powers survey comes back so low because many of my friends drive H2's and they also are incident free.

I'm sure you'll have to get things fixed "while at the dealer" but my H2 has never left me on the side of the road to the point when I replace this vehicle, it will probably be with another H2.

I commend you for doing your homework but I honestly think you'll be terrificly pleased with your purchase.

Good luck with whatever vehicle you choose.
