My sister was unfortunately in accident and is looking to replace her older Honda Pilot with a newer 3 row SUV. She has test driven a few 2020 to 2022 Chevy Traverses and likes the way they drive and the amount of space in the rear with third row folded for her dog's travel crate. I'm not overly familiar with the newer models, but I have read and heard some not so favorable things over the years about the older models in terms of reliability. I would like to think that any issues with the timing chains on the 3.6 would have been resolved at this point, but just trying to do the big brother thing to help her minimize the chance of headaches down the road.
She is looking primarily at what I believe are mid trim LT models, as she wants AWD, leather, and a few niceties without going for a fully loaded model. Anything she buys would be low mileage, as she would ideally like to keep it for at least 10 to 15 years.
She is not necessarily easy on her cars, but she can follow a maintenance schedule well if one is laid out for her.
Any input on these model years is appreciated, as all she really has to go by is the Consumer Reports ratings, which I tend to take with a grain of salt.
