POWER TRAIN
WHILE TRAVELING DOWN HILL ON LONG GRADES THE TRANSMISSION DROPS TO NEUTRAL OR VERY LOW GEAR AND ENGINE REVS DROP TO IDLE. THE GRADE BREAK DISENGAGES AND THE VEHICLE FREE WHEELS AND HENCE SPEEDS UP. THE ONLY WAY TO RE-ENGAGE THE TRANSMISSION IS TO EXCESSIVELY REV THE ENGINE. THIS IS HAS BEEN AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE OVER THE LAST 18 MONTHS AND I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO REPLICATE AT A SERVICE CENTER.

SUSPENSION
2016 GMC YUKON DENALI XL 40K MINT CONDITION BOUNCES VIGOROUSLY AT SLOW SPEEDS AND EVEN MORE SO AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT IS TO A POINT THE RIDE IS UNBEARABLE AND POTENTIALLY DOWN RIGHT DANGEROUS. I HAVE READ COUNTLESS COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE AND I AS WELL AS MANY OTHERS ARE WONDERING WHY IS THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUED ON THE SHOCK AND STRUTS ON THESE VEHICLES .(2015-2016)

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE BRAKE/TAIL LIGHTS WORK SOMEDAYS, AND NOT OTHER DAYS. ONE DAY THE ARE BOTH WORKING, ONE DAY ONLY ONE WORKS, AND SOME DAYS NEITHER WORK. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT IS VERY PREVALENT. JUST LOOK ONLINE. I HAVE PERSONALLY PHOTOGRAPHED SEVERAL OF THE SAME ISSUE ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL IN MY HOMETOWN. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS ME TO PAY $1300 TO HAVE NEW LIGHTS INSTALLED AND GMC IS IN DENIAL OF THEIR PROBLEM.(THE BACK UP/REVERSE WHITE LIGHT WORKS ALL OF THE TIME, ITS THE RED BRAKE/TAIL LIGHT THAT DOESN'T WORK) THIS SHOWS THAT ITS AN ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED, NOT REPLACED AT THE OWNER'S EXPENSE.

SERVICE BRAKES
IT WAS A 101 DEGREE OUT HERE IN DENVER, COLORADO. WHILE DRIVING ON A TOLL WAY AT 75 MILES PER HOUR AN "ABS" LIGHT WITH A "SERVICE STABILITRAK" MESSAGE POPPED OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING OK WITH LIGHTS ON UNTIL I FINISH THE TOLL WAY (30 MILES) AND THEN FOR THE NEXT 50 MILES ON A HIGHWAY. I NOTICED THE FIRST PROBLEM WHEN I EXITED THE HIGHWAY AND DRIVING AT A LOWER RPM. AT 30-45 MILES PER HOUR THE VEHICLE STARTED SETTING THE BREAK ON BY ITSELF AND DRAFTED TO THE LEFT LANE. THEN I HAD TO STEER QUICKLY TO THE RIGHTSCOUPLE TIMES UNTIL I REACH TO MY DESTINATION. I ALSO NOTICED THAT WHEN I STEER HARDER EITHER TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT AT A LOW RPM, THE VEHICLE STOPES ROLLING BY ITSELF BEFORE I PUSH ON THE BREAK.

REAR PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHT HAS STOPPED WORKING. TOOK INTO DEALERSHIP AND IT APPEARS GMC DOES NOT COVER UNDER WARRANTY. IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS OF REAR BRAKE LIGHT ISSUES WITH GMC VEHICLES, SPECIFICALLY YUKONS BUT GMC CONTINUES TO INDICATE THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
AT 64,497 MY WIFE'S POWER STEERING WENT OUT ON HER VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENED A DAY AFTER OUR TRIP TO ATLANTA, GA. WE TOOK IT TO OUR LOCAL GMC DEALERSHIP AND WAS NOTIFIED THAT 4 MODULES HAD TO BE REPLACED AND A RECOMMENDED WIRING HARNESS. IN 2015 GMC VEHICLES HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE AND RECALL BUT NOT THE 2016. THIS COST ME $1400 IN REPAIRS.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
TAKATA RECALL...ELECTRICAL IS ALWAYS MESSING UP. ALWAYS FUEL EMMISIONS SYSTEM LIGHT, WHICH THEN MESSES UP THE RADIO THAT SHUTS OFF AND ON AND GETS WARM, SIGNALS THEN DO NOT CLICK. THE STRUTS AND SHOCKS GIVE ME PROBLEMS. I HAVE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY FIXING ONE THING AFTER ANOTHER. THIS SUV IS MY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION WITH MY FAMILY OF 8. I FEEL IT IS UNSAFE TO BE DRIVING. THE TRUCK IS AFFECTED WITH DRIVING IN A STREET, HIGHWAY OR MAKING A TURN.
