Owners of the 2010 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 have filed 53 safety complaints with NHTSA between February 2010 and May 2019. The most complained-about system is the air bags, named in 22 of them (42%). The typical failure was reported at 70,000 miles, the median across the 37 complaints that gave an odometer reading.
No recall campaign was matched to this year, make and model. That is not the same as a clean vehicle: recalls are issued against production ranges, and the only reliable check is your own VIN.
Complaints naming each system. One complaint can name several, so these add up to more than 53.
By the year NHTSA received them, which is not the year the failures happened. They peaked in 2017 at 16.

If this is your car and a dealer keeps failing to fix it, your state's lemon law may require the manufacturer to replace it or buy it back. What each state asks for , read from the statutes.
A complaint is one owner's account and has not been verified by NHTSA or by us. A vehicle with more complaints is not necessarily worse: models that sold in larger numbers collect more of them. How this is counted.
