Basic warranty on this car is 3 years / 36,000 miles. Only 40% of reported failures happen inside it — the remaining 60% come out of the owner's pocket. Powertrain cover (5 years / 60,000 miles) reaches further, but it only covers the engine and transmission, which account for about 40% of the complaints here.

What actually fails — and at what age

On the GMC Hummer EV Pickup, the early trouble is Structure and Electrical System — reported at around 3 years, so a car still under warranty is the one to check for it.
