SERVICE BRAKES
ATTEMPTED TO SLOW DOWN BY STEPPING ON BRAKES BUT THE PEDAL WAS EXTREMELY STIFF AND THERE WAS NO STOPPING ACTION. HAD TO ALMOST STAND ON THE BRAKE PEDAL WITH ALL MY FORCE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP BEFORE ALMOST HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A DEALER AND THEY SAID THE BRAKE BOOSTER PUMP HAD FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
MY YUKON 2015 HAD 62,000 MILES IN MAY 2019 WHEN THE LEFT TAIL LIGHT WENT OUT. BECAUSE IT IS AN LED LIGHT, THE PART FROM THE DEALERSHIP AVERAGE AROUND $700. IT WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND I HAD IT REPLACED IN THE BEGINNING OF JUNE 2019. TODAY MY RIGHT REAR TAIL LIGHT IS NOW OUT. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE 2015 YUKONS AND GMC WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL OR DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE PART IS WAY OVERPRICED. IF THIS IS AN ISSUE, IT SHOULD EITHER BE RECALLED FOR SAFETY REASONS OR THE PART SHOULD BE MADE AVAILABLE AT A MORE REASONABLE PRICE. SPENDING $1500.00 FOR BREAKLIGHTS IN ONE MONTH IS WRONG. PLEASE SOMEONE REACH OUT AND HELP STOP THIS.

AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
DASH BOARD PANEL HAS CRACKED OPEN FOR UNKNOWN REASONS CAUSING A SAFETY CONCERN WITH SHARP EDGES AND OPENINGS THAT ALLOW OPPORTUNITIES FOR FOREIGN OBJECTS/ITEMS TO ENTER VEHICLE CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTATION PANELS. PASSENGER AIR BAG AT DASH BOARD SEEMS DEFECTIVE DUE TO CRACKED DASH BOARD PANELS AND ASSOCIATED TRIM PIECES. IT APPEARS THAN UPON AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT THERE WOULD BE POSSIBLE ADDITIONAL OCCUPANT/PASSENGER INJURIES DUE TO THE BROKEN/LOOSE FITTING/SUB-STANDARD DASH BOARD PLASTIC PIECES.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
DRIVERS' SIDE BRAKE LIGHT/TAIL LIGHT FAILURE AT 44K MILES. GMC REFUSES TO FIX UNDER WARRANTY (EVEN WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY PURCHASED) DESPITE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE. DEALER QUOTED $1,000 TO FIX JUST THE ONE SIDE AND ADMITTED THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. I WAS STOPPED BY ANOTHER DRIVER AT A RED LIGHT TO INFORM ME OF THE ISSUE - HE SAID HE NEARLY HIT ME BECAUSE OF IT AND WAS SCARED.

SERVICE BRAKES, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE RIGHT REAR TAIL LIGHT BRAKE LIGHTS HAVE GONE COMPLETELY OUT. THESE ARE ONE SOLID HOUSING AND HAVE TO BE REPLACED TO SIMPLY FIX THE BRAKE LIGHT. REVERSE AND TURN SIGNAL LIGHTS ARE OK. THE HOUSINGS COST 600-700 DOLLARS EACH TO REPLACE WHICH IS A LUDICROUS AMOUNT TO HAVE TO SPEND. IN ORDER TO BE WITHIN REGULATIONS FOR INSPECTION, THESE HAVE TO BE WORKING. WE FEEL THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL AS THERE ARE LOTS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THESE HOUSINGS.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
A FEW MONTHS AGO THE DRIVER SIDE TAILLIGHT STOPPED WORKING (OR WOULD ONLY WORK INTERMITTENTLY). TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS $850 TO REPAIR. FILED COMPLAINT WITH GMC AND AS I WAS WORKING THROUGH THAT WITH THEM THE PASSENGER SIDE TAILLIGHT STOPPED WORKING AS WELL. NOW I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT IS NOT EVEN 3 YEARS OLD WITHOUT WORKING TAILLIGHTS. THIS IS TOTALLY RIDICULOUS. A $65,000 'PROFESSIONAL GRADE' VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THIS ISSUE AT 55,000 MILES. GMC NEEDS TO WAKE UP AND RECALL THESE. WILL IT TAKE A FATAL ACCIDENT TO SPUR A RECALL??

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
MY VEHICLE IS A 2015 YUKON XL. IN 2018 I HAD TO REPLACE MY FRONT DRIVER SIDE LED LIGHTS AND MY PASSENGER SIDE REAR BRAKE LIGHT FOR A COST OVER $2,000. I LITERALLY HAD TO CANCEL A FAMILY VACATION IN ORDER TO PAY FOR THE LIGHTS ON MY VEHICLE. IT IS ILLEGAL TO DRIVE WITHOUT WORKING BRAKE LIGHTS. THIS YEAR, JUNE 2019, I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE DRIVER SIDE BREAK LIGHT AT A COST CLOSE TO $1,000.
