• 12/31/2018· SERVICE BRAKES

  ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHEN PARKING, AND DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SOEEDV( 60 MPH)ON INTERSTATE IN SUDDEN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC BRAKES FAILED TO ENGAGE AFTER WORKING PROPERLY BEFORE AND AGAIN AFTER WITH MORE THAN A MONTH BETWEEN INCIDENTS . THE SECOND INCIDENT OCCURRED ON 12/31/18 AFTER THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN FOR ROUTINE OIL CHANGE AND SERVICE THAT INCLUDED A MULTI POINT INSPECTION AT THE GMC DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW. THE VEHICLE IS FREQUENTLY SERVICED AS REQUIRED AND HAS TIRES WITH GOOD TREAD . THE FAILURE IS ALARMING AS IT OFTEN COMES WHEN TRYING TO MAKE A NECESSARY STOP AND THE FAILURE COMES OUT OF THE BLUE THEN RETURNS TO NORMAL. THIS OCCURRENCE SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURER AND SHOULD BE TAKEN VERY SERIOUSLY SINCE THE MATTER IS LITERALLY A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH. I WILL BE MAKING AN APPOINTMENT FOR MY VEHICLE TO BE CHECKED OUT AND WILL UPDATE THE DEALERSHIP FINDINGS .

  BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OUT. DEALER SAID HAD TO REPLACE ENTIRE FIXTURE. NOT COVERED UNDER BUMPER TO BUMPER EXTENDED WARRANTY PURCHASED. SAFETY HAZARD THAT MANY OTHER 2015 YUKON OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED. TRIM/SEAL APPLIQUS AROUND DOOR WINDOWS ALSO COMING OFF AND ALSO NOT CO WEED UNDER B2B WARRANTY. SHOTTILY MADE VEHICLE.

  DRIVER SIDE REAR BRAKE LIGHT WORKING INTERMITTENTLY, APPROX. 10% OF THE TIME. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND SAID IT IS KNOWN ISSUE WITH MOST DENALI BRAKE LIGHTS. WAS QUOTED TO REPLACE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY $900.

  CRACK DEVELOPED AT EDGE OF WINDSHIELD AT DEICER STRIP. NO APPARRENT CAUSE SUCH AS ROCK DAMAGE. GMC WILL NOT COVER THIS REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. MY WIFE'S 2015 SUBARU OUTBACK RECEIVED A WARRANTY EXTENSION NOTICE FOR THIS VERY DEFECT STATING THAT "DURING THE MFG PROCESS CERTAIN COMPOUNDS USED TO ADHERE THE DEICER TO THE WINDSHIELD CREATED A CONDITION WHERE THE GLASS BECAME MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO CRACKING FOLLOWING A MINOR WOUND." I'M QUITE CERTAIN THIS DEFECT IS THE PROBLEM WITH MY YUKON. IS IT POSSIBLE THAT SUBARU AND GMC WINDSHIELDS ARE PROVIDED BY THE SAME SUB-CONTRACTOR?

• 12/27/2018· EXTERIOR LIGHTING

  MY RIGHT REAR TAILLIGHT STOPPED WORKING, INCLUDING THE BRAKE LIGHT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT IS A BURNED OUT TAILLIGHT AND HAS TO BE REPLACED. THE COST WAS $800. I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THESE TAILLIGHTS ARE LED AND LAST FOREVER. IN READING ONLINE, IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THESE GMC/CHEVY TAILLIGHTS WHERE THE CIRCUIT BOARD BREAKS AND THE LIGHT STOPS WORKING.

• 12/26/2019· EXTERIOR LIGHTING

  BRAKE LIGHTS AND TAIL LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. THE LED LIGHTS HAVE STOPPED WORKING AT 4 YEARS OLD AND 50,000 MILES. NO OPTION TO REPLACE INDIVIDUAL BULBS, DEALER SAID THE ENTIRE LIGHT FIXTURE HAS TO BE REPLACED AT $665 PER EACH SIDE. MAJOR SAFETY FEATURE NOT WORKING @ BRAKE LIGHTS!!!

• 12/22/2017· POWER TRAIN

  ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN 2015 GMC YUKON DENALI XL-- ENGINE WAS RUNNING IN TRAFFIC AND STALLED OUT AT INTERSECTION MAKING A TURN. DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED AS BENT PUSH ROD, BROKEN VALVE SPRING, BROKEN LIFTER. THIS HAS BEEN LINKED TO FAULTY ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WITH GMC ENGINES. THERE IS AN ACTIVE SERVICE BULLETIN FROM GM CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM. UNDER EXISTING POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, GM AGREES TO FIX THE BROKEN ENGINE COMPONENTS, BUT WILL NOT ADDRESS THE UNDERLYING ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM, THE AFM SYSTEM. THE GM CUSTOMER SERVICE REP STATED THAT IT IS NOT GM'S CURRENT POLICY TO ADDRESS THE AFM SYSTEM EVEN THOUGH IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT AGREES THIS IS THE PROBLEM. DOCUMENTATION ONLINE FROM OTHER CONSUMERS VALIDATES THAT THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE. IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE UNLESS THE AFM SYSTEM IS ADDRESSED, THERE IS A RISK THE ENGINE WILL FAIL IN TRAFFIC. I FEEL LIKE GM IS UNWILLING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUES BECAUSE THERE IS NO EASY, CHEAP FIX AND THE PROBLEM IS SO WIDESPREAD IN ITS VEHICLES WITH AFM SYSTEMS. IT IS A POTENTIAL PUBLIC TRAFFIC SAFETY CONCERN AS THESE ENGINES AGE.

  DRIVING IN SNOWY CONDITIONS WITH THE VEHICLE IN 4WD, BEGAN NAVIGATING A TURN AND THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL, AND THE DASH DISPLAYED THE "4WD SHIFT ON PROGRESS" ON THE DASH WITHOUT DRIVER TOUCHING THE 4WD BUTTONS. COULD NOT STEER OR BRAKE OR DO ANYTHING. VEHICLE ENDED UP HITTING A WALL CAUSING A FAIR AMOUNT OF DAMAGE.

WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE TAILLIGHT IT STILL ILLUMINATES, THERE ARE NO LEDS OUT, BUT TAILLIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT WON'T ILLUMINATE. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY'VE STATED IF FOUND FAULTY IT REQUIRES COMPLETE REPLACEMENT OF THE TAILLIGHT AND IT WAS QUOTED AT ROUGHLY $850 INSTALLED, WHICH SEEMS REALLY EXCESSIVE WHEN A TAILLIGHT GOES OUT.

  Brake Assist Light came on. Pierre brakes failed and had to press down hard manually to get the car to stop. Felt antilock breaks were assisting. We felt very unsafe. It’s very scary.

• 12/20/2021· SERVICE BRAKES

  Last week, the power brake assist began fading away intermittently at low speeds, and caught my wife off guard in a grocery store parking lot when she pulled into a parking space and the brakes were not available. She had to plant both feet on the brake pedal in a panic stop before crashing into the car parked in front of her, and has since never driven the vehicle. This is a danger, and is potentially life threatening.

  WHILE THANKFULLY DRIVING IN THE SLOW LANE ON THE INTERSTATE IN ST. LOUIS MY STABILITY LIGHT CAME ON THE TRUCK THEN SLOWED DOWN ON ITS OWN THEN WENT INTO FOUR-WHEEL-DRIVE THEN REVVED UP TO 6000 RPMS THEN EVERY SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON ON THE DASH WHEN PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD THE CAR THEN WOULD NOT DRIVE FORWARD IT STAYED IN NEUTRAL REGARDLESS OF GEARSHIFTING IT THEN BEGAN TO CYCLE THROUGH ALL OF THE SERVICE REQUEST FOR THE VEHICLE. AFTER HAVING TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP WHICH WAS THREE HOURS AWAY FROM MY HOUSE THEY INFORMED ME THE FOLLOWING MORNING THE POWER STEERING CONTROL GEARBOX HAD WENT OUT AND FRIED ALL THE ELECTRICAL'S INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 39,000 MILES AFTER CONTACTING GMC THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO THAT THERE WAS NOTHING ON A RECALL LIST FOR MY VEHICLES VIN NUMBER. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I SAW THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR A VERY SIMILAR SITUATION IN 2018 IN SEPTEMBER. I HAVE VIDEOS OF THE VEHICLE COMPUTER SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONING IF REQUESTED. I JUST WANTED TO DOCUMENT AND FILE A COMPLAINT SO THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN TO SOMEONE ELSE AND CAUSE A SERIOUS WRECK , SINCE GMC HAS FAILED TO RECOGNIZE THIS SERIOUS OF AN ISSUE.

  I was driving down the highway and out of no where I hear this loud kaboom! I ducked thinking something just hit me and pull over but here glass tinkling around. I automatically know it is my sunroof so I get out and look and my sunroof exploded. (Looked like it was pushed up.) Luckily I had the inside part shut or I and my passenger would have been covered in glass.

  Transmission failure at 167,000 miles. Transmission failed during a 100 mile trip initially slipping and eventually would not engage. Vehicle traveled on I 26 and could have resulted in accident on this 80 mph interstate. This vehicle is typically driven by my wife. No warning and GM Onstar provided vehicle diagnostic check in days prior to failure with no issues. Technician advised this was the 3rd vehicle this month in his shop with 6L80e transmission failure and said they normally fail around 150,000 miles. This is a known failure on numerous general motors vehicles across the product line. Repair required replacement of 6l80e transmission with a factory rebuilt transmission. Cost $4,100.

  THE VEHICLE'S TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY ON BOTH THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGER'S SIDES ARE DEFECTIVE. THE SOLDER DOES NOT HOLD AND THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE LIGHTS AND RUNNING LIGHTS FAIL INTERMITTENTLY. THE DRIVER IS TOTALLY UNAWARE OF THIS MAJOR ISSUE THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING. IN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET THERE ARE NUMEROUS CUSTOMERS OF GMC'S YUKON'S AND DENALI'S WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAFETY PROBLEM. I REALIZED THE PROBLEM WHEN ANOTHER MOTORIST ALMOST STRUCK THE BACK OF MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THERE WERE NOT BRAKE LIGHTS AT ALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AND BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED. THE SIGNAL LIGHTS WILL STILL WORK.

  VEHICLE EXHIBITS A "BUFFETTING" OR PRESSURE SENSATION THAT CAN BE FELT PRIMARILY IN THE EARS BETWEEN 40 AND 50 MPH. AFTER ANY AMOUNT OF TIME AT THESE SUSTAINED SPEEDS IT BEGINS TO CAUSE DIZZINESS, EAR PAIN, AND HEADACHES. THIS CONDITION WAS CONFIRMED BY THE DEALER WITH 3 SEPARATE DRIVERS INCLUDING A TECH, THE SALES MANAGER, AND THE OWNER. GM HAS A TECHNICAL PI ISSUED, AS THE PROBLEM IS APPARENTLY RELATIVELY COMMON IN THESE VEHICLES. SUGGESTED REPAIRS INCLUDE RE-BONDING THE ROOF SHEET METAL TO THE FRAME, REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL, REPLACEMENT OF THE PROPSHAFT, REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF WHEELS AND TIRES, REMOVAL AND "RELAXING" OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM, AND MORE. NONE OF WHICH APPEARS TO SOLVE THE ISSUE. A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH TURNED UP DOZENS OF CASES WITH THIS ISSUE IN JUST ONE WEBSITE. GM HAS MANUFACTURED A VEHICLE WITH A SIGNIFICANT, KNOWN FLAW THAT THEY CANNOT CURRENTLY FIX. THIS FLAW SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE STRICTLY BASED UPON THE PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS TRIGGERED BY THE SENSATION WITHIN THE VEHICLE.

  REAR PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHT IS WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. PURCHASED EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT IT IS NOT COVERING COST TO REPLACE WHICH DEALER SAYS WILL BE OVER $700. WAS TOLD THAT GMC KNOWS THESE LIGHTS ARE NOT LASTING AS LONG, SO THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY OF THE LIGHTS, BUT I AM STILL OUT DUE TO MILES ON MY CAR. THE PURCHASED EXTENDED WARRANTY GOES TO 125K MILES, BUT THEY WILL NOT COVER.

  WHEN COMING TO A STOP, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME STIFF AND DID NOT ENGAGE. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS IN THE PAST, AND HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING AT SLOW SPEEDS (LESS THAN 5MPH). THE ISSUE IS A FAULTY POWER BREAK PUMP.

• 12/10/2015· SERVICE BRAKES

  EARLIER THIS YEAR I PURCHASED A 2015 GMC YUKON DENALI. AFTER DRIVING IT A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME I REALIZED THE BRAKE PEDAL IS LOCATED SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN THE GAS PEDAL. I'VE COME TO REALIZE THAT THE ~4INCH GAP IS CAUSING A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD, ESPECIALLY IN EMERGENCY BRAKING SITUATIONS. MY FOOT, ALONG WITH OTHERS IN THE POST LINKED BELOW, OFTEN GETS CAUGHT IN THE LARGE GAP BETWEEN THE GAS AND THE BRAKE, ESPECIALLY WHEN MOVING QUICKLY. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY INSTANCES TO DATE WHERE THE SOLE OF MY SHOES HAS GOTTEN STUCK UNDER THE BRAKE PEDAL, PREVENTING ME FROM STOPPING IN TIME. I'VE NARROWLY AVOIDED AT LEAST 5 ACCIDENTS, BECAUSE OF THIS. FEARING THAT IT IS A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE IT RESULTS IN A COLLISION I REACHED OUT TO GMC TO SEE IF THERE WAS A FIX. THEY RESPONDED AND SAID THAT THE PEDALS ARE WORKING AS DESIGNED AND SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THEIR RESPONSE, ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THE CLEAR SAFETY HAZARD IT CREATES. IT IS A LARGE CAR, REQUIRING MORE BRAKING DISTANCE THAN MOST. ANY IMPEDANCE TO THE PROCESS SHOULD BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY ESPECIALLY IF IT IS A MANUFACTURER DESIGN FLAW SUCH AS THIS. SIMILAR COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN VOICED IN THIS ONLINE CONSUMER THREAD. ONE OF MANY THAT I FOUND REITERATING THE PROBLEM. HTTP://WWW.TAHOEYUKONFORUM.COM/THREADS/GAS-BRAKE-PEDAL-DISTANCE.67500/

  The contact owns a 2015 GMC Yukon XL. The contact stated that when the vehicle was started, the vehicle started shaking with a tapping sound coming from the engine compartment. The contact stated that there were no warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed around the block, the failure persisted. The vehicle was parked at the residence. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the lifters in the engine were loose, and the lifters and the right side of the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

  Both tail lights fail. I just bought this vehicle at Ewald Automotive in Oconmowoc Wi a month ago with 100k and I know they were aware of the problem and so is GMC. I am not paying 900 bucks for each tail light. They are absolute junk. The left side someone already messed with it because there is electrical tape on it. Ewald laughed in my face.

  THE BRAKES FAILED IN MY CAR CAUSING A REAR COLLISION WITH AN OBJECT IN MY DRIVEWAY. AFTER INSPECTION FROM A CERTIFIED GMC DEALERSHIP, THE BRAKE FAILURE WAS NOT CAUSED BY SERVICE NEGLECT OR AGE OF BRAKES, IT WAS DUE TO THE VACCUM PUMP FAILURE TO PROVIDE PRESSURE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN TWO YEARS THIS PART HAS CAUSED MY BRAKES TO FAIL. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE PART AT NO COST THOUGH THERE IS NOT FORMAL RECALL ON THIS PART. BOTH TIMES THIS PART FAILED THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS TOWED OUT OF A CITY TO BE REPAIRED AS IT WAS DANGERSOUS TO DRIVE AND THE SECOND TIME THE FAILURE CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO COLLIDE WITH A LARGE DUMPSTER IN MY DRIVEWAY CAUSING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR.

I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE AND HAD MANY PARTS REPLACED ONLY FOR THE NOISE TO COME RIGHT BACK. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES AND ALL THE TIRES ARE WEARING TO THE POINT THAT BELTS ARE NOW SHOWING. WHEN TALKING TO CONTINENTAL THESE FACTORY TIRES HAVE AN 80,000 MILE WARRANTY BUT THAT TIRE WEAR WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER FACTORY TIRES. AFTER CALLING GMC, CONTINENTAL AND MY LOCAL DEALER, I FINALLY WAS TOLD THEY WOULD GIVE ME $250 TOWARD NEW TIRES BUT I COULD ONLY USE THAT TOWARD THE PURCHASE OF CONTINENTAL TIRES.

HOW CAN I HAVE THE EXACT SAME ISSUES THAT ARE DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL BUT THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT BECAUSE MY DOT IS NOT IN THE 1 MONTH RECALL.
