They all have transmission issues after 2014.
All 5.3 since 2007 are prone to lifter failure.
The 10 speed seems to be getting better reviews than the 8speed did.
I purposely sought out a 2009 6.2 Denali a few years ago because of this. 6 Speed Trans, 6.2, no AMF cylinder deactivation to cause lifters to fail.
2 things-
1- Realistically there are hundreds of thousands that survive not having issues. If you follow forums or FB it makes the problems appear way more common. (Average Joe that buys a Tahoe, and does not have issues, or make mods to it, is not going to join a fb group to say- "I have a bone stock 2016 Tahoe and it runs good" lol)
2- If you buy anything newer than a 2015 get a warranty.
