AIR BAGS
THE "SERVICE AIR BAG" LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR ALMOST A YEAR AND THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH IS CRACKED AND PROTRUDING UPWARDS ABOUT 1/2 INCH. I COVERED IT WITH A CLOTH DASH COVER ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO AND IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
BRAKE LIGHT GOES IN AND OUT AND DOESN'T WORK ALL THE TIME. ACCORDING TO WHAT I'M READING IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. THERE IS NO FIX EXCEPT BUYING A BRAND NEW ONE AND THAT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT. SEEMS LIKE A POOR DESIGN AND NOT TO MENTION I CAN GET A TICKET FOR THIS. AND MOST IMPORTANT...I HAVE A FAMILY WITH TWO SMALL KIDS AND THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IF MY BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK!

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
REAR PASSENGER TAIL LIGHT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A RIDICULOUS COST. EXTREMELY POOR ENGINEERING DESIGN. THAT IS IF IT WASN'T INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED TO FAIL. ON THE LOW END $5-600 TO REPLACE A TAIL LIGHT??? WHAT A JOKE. SAD THING IS I'M LUCKY, MANY MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD MORE THAN ONE LIGHT ASSEMBLY GO OUT. I'VE BOUGHT GM FOR MY LAST 3 VEHICLES (ENVOY, TAHOE, YUKON) THIS WILL LIKELY BE THE LAST TIME I EVER BUY GM.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
BRAKE LIGHTS WORK SPORADICALLY, UNTIL THE PASSENGER REAR FINALLY STOPPED WORKING ALL TOGETHER. CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, THAT THEY REPLACE SEVERAL A WEEK, AND MY WARRANTY WOULD NOT COVER IT. GOT A ESTIMATE OF OVER $1600 TO REPAIR IT. WAS PULLED OVER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS EACH TIME WAS TOLD IT WAS EITHER THE LEFT OR RIGHT NOT WORKING. THEN MIRACULOUSLY BOTH WOULD BE WORKING. IF THIS IS SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM LIKE THE DEALERSHIP STATED, THEN WHY HASN'T GM RECALLED OR DISCONTINUED USING THEM? THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND NOT AS SIMPLE AS REPLACING A BULB. WAY TO COSTLY TO JUST BRING IN FOR REPAIRS!

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
MY TAIL LIGHTS GO OUT EVERY NOW AND THEN. MORE IN THE SUMMER THAN THE WINTER. THE BREAK LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNAL STILL WORK GREAT. I HAVE LOOKED ONLINE AND IT LOOKS LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. ITS A SAFETY ISSUE HAVING TAIL LIGHTS ONE MINUTE AND THEN NOT HAVING TAIL LIGHTS. I ASKED GM MONTHS AGO TO DO A RECALL AND STILL HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING. THIS HAPPENS WHILE IT IS IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. WE SEEN ONLINE THAT ALL THE ISSUE IS, IS A PLACE THAT COMES LOOSE IN THE TAIL LIGHT AND IT ONLY NEEDS SOLDERED TOGETHER. WE TOOK THE TAIL LIGHTS OUT AND HAD A PROFESSIONAL TO SOLDER IT AND THEY STARTED WORKING PERFECTLY. THEY NOW ARE WORKING PART TIME AGAIN. FOR THIS TO HAPPEN TO MULTIPLE PEOPLE I FEEL LIKE IT IS AN ISSUE GM SHOULD FIX. IF IT WAS RARE I WOULD UNDERSTAND IF I HAD TO BUY NEW TAIL LIGHTS. BUT WITH MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE WILL NEW LIGHTS NOT DO THE SAME?

SEATS, SUSPENSION, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE A/C HAS QUICK WORKING. WE TOOK IT IN TO GET FIXED, THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG EXCEPT LOW ON FREON. REPLACED AND IT IS GONE (HAS DYE IN IT & NO DETECTION WHERE IT HAS GONE). I DIDN'T DRIVE THIS CAR FOR 6 MOS. BECAUSE OF THIS (TOO HOT). I CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX EVERYTHING THAT IS GOING WRONG ON THIS CAR. SAME DAY A/C WENT OUT, THE HEAT SYSTEM WENT OUT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT. JUST BLOWS COLD AIR! THIS IS RIDICULOUS! THE SUSPENSION IS NOW SLAMMING HARD AND SUPER LOUD (ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS COOL/COLD OUT). I AM GLAD THEY ARE FINALLY FIXING THE BRAKE ISSUE BUT REALLY? ALL THIS OTHER BS ON THIS EXPENSIVE CAR? THE DAY WE GOT BACK FROM SHOP FOR THE A/C, THE DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WAS OUT. OMG!! TALK ABOUT EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR!! 650-800 FOR JUST THE LIGHT ASSEMBLY THROUGH GMC AND THAT IS RECONDITIONED PARTS! WHY WOULD WE PUT MORE CRAP PARTS IN? WAITED ANOTHER 2 MOS TO SAVE MONEY TO GO TO AN AFTERMARKET PERSON TO FIX THIS. JUST WAITING ON THE OTHER SIDE TO GO OUT! LIGHTS GO OUT ALL THE TIME, WHY WOULD YOU MAKE THEM WHERE THEY ARE NOT AFFORDABLE? WE BABY OUR CAR, PARK AWAY FROM EVERYONE AND YET IT IS FALLING APART DUE TO THE CRAPPY PRODUCTS THAT GM USED TO MANUFACTURE IT. ALL THESE PROBLEMS HAPPENED (EXCEPT THE BRAKING ISSUE AND THE SUSPENSION) WHEN I WENT TO START THE CAR AND I NOTICED IT. THE SUSPENSION IS WHEN I AM DRIVING AND THE ROAD CAN JUST HAVE A 'WAVE" IN IT. IF THERE IS ANY SORT OF BOUNCE, THIS CAR WILL BOTTOM OUT AND IS SUPER LOUD.THE AIR STARTED 3/28/19 AND ALL HAS FOLLOWED. WE BOUGHT IT USED WITH 74K-ISH ON IT. HAVE ONLY HAD IT SINCE LAST JULY, 2018
