SUSPENSION
MY 2015 YUKON DENALI HAD A COMPLETE SUSPENSION FAILURE ON ALL FOUR TIRES AT 67,535 MILES. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS WAY TOO SOON TO BE HAVING SUSPENSION PROBLEMS ON THIS, BUT WHEN DIAGNOSED, THAT WAS THE ISSUE. I WAS TOLD BY MY AUTO REPAIR SHOP THAT IT WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN THAT CONDITION, AS THE STEERING COULD FAIL TO WORK CORRECTLY WHEN GOING THROUGH TIGHT TURNS AND BRAKING. THEY SAID THAT IT COULD POSSIBLY SKID DUE TO NOT HAVING ANY SHOCKS OR STRUTS FUNCTIONING. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS LIFTED, THE WHEELS DID NOT LOWER FROM THE CARRIAGE AT ALL DUE TO COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE SUSPENSION SYSTEM. WE REPLACED THE REAR SHOCKS AND FRONT STRUTS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. THIS PROBLEM DID NOT OCCUR ALL AT ONCE, BUT RATHER OVER A PERIOD OF A COUPLE WEEKS WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTED TO RIDE ROUGHER ON EACH TIRE. ALL FOUR WENT OUT WITHIN A SPAN OF TWO WEEKS TIME.

STEERING
THE PROBLEM I BEEN HAVING IS WITH THE STEERING. WHEN YOU TURN THE STEERING WHEEL SUDDENLY OR JUST KINDA FAST THE STEERING ASSIST WILL LOCK UP AND ALL OF THE DASHBOARD AND AC WILL SHUT OFF AND THAN RESTARTS. NOT ALL THE TIME BUT ABOUT 6 TIMES THE ENGINE SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT IT PUTS YOU IN THIS CAN HAPPEN WHEN STATIONARY WHEN YOU TRYING TO PULL OUT ON THE HIGHWAY OR AT SLOT SPEED WHEN TRYING TO TURN THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
CIRCUIT BOARDS IN LED TAIL LIGHTS FAILING. THIS RESULTS IN SPORADIC FUNCTIONING BRAKE LIGHTS. THE DESIGN OF THE BUS BAR IN THE TAIL LIGHT HAS RESULTED IN CREATING WEAK SPOTS IN THE BUS BAR THAT CRACK AND UNLESS REPLACED OR REPAIRED AT SUBSTANTIAL COST THE BRAKE LIGHTS MAY OR MAY NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY.

SERVICE BRAKES
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

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS DEPRESSED FULLY, THE GAS PEDAL STICKS THE CAR CONTINUES ACCELERATING. THE PROBLEM BEGAN WITH INITIAL COMPLETE DEPRESSION OF GAS PEDAL TO CAUSE SOME ACCELERATION AND DEPRESSING BRAKE ALLOWED VEHICLE TO RETURN TO NORMAL DRIVING. THE PROBLEM HAS WORSENED OVER TIME TO THE POINT WHERE BOTH FEET DEPRESSING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL DID NOT AFFECT ACCELERATION AND CAUSED SMOKE TO EMIT FROM BOTH FRONT BRAKE PADS, AND THE PASSENGER FRONT BRAKE PAD FLAMED UP FROM THE HEAT. THE CAR WAS DRIVEN INTO A PARKING LOT WITH THE BRAKE DEPRESSED THE ENTIRE TIME, AND TURNED OFF. SO FAR, THIS HAS ONLY HAPPENED WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS FULLY DEPRESSED. THE DEALER TOLD ME THE MAT CAUSED THIS EVEN THOUGH THE MAT IS CUT AROUND THE GAS PEDAL WITH PLENTY OF ROOM TO NOT OBSTRUCT PEDAL. THE MAT ALSO DOES NOT SLIDE OR MOVE ABOUT THE AREA. THE GMC DEALER TOLD ME THEY TOOK THE MAT OUT AND DID NOT NOTICE ANY AUTO ACCELERATION, AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE UNABLE TO DEPRESS THE GAS PEDAL FULL TO ATTEMPT TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM, TO NOT COMPROMISE THE SAFETY OF THE OTHER CARS NEARBY.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
BOTH OF THE TAILLIGHTS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO THE GMC DEALER ONLY TO BE TOLD IT WILL BE 2000.00 TO REPLACE THEM BOTH. THIS IS A FACTORY PROBLEM. SOMETIMES ONE WORKS, SOMETIMES THEY BOTH WORK AND SOMETIMES NEITHER WORK, IN MOTION, STATIONARY, ALL STREETS AND AT ANY TIME.

AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY
MY DASHBOARD IS CRACKING FOR NO REASON. THERE IS A CRACK WHERE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IS INSTALLED. I'M CONCERNED THAT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, ITEMS LIKE THE SPEAKER IN THE DASH BOARD WILL BECOME PROJECTILES. I AM ALSO CONCERNED THAT IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS THEN POTENTIALLY SHARDS OF BROKEN PLASTIC WILL ALSO BE FLYING THROUGH THE CABIN.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
RIGHT REAR LED TAIL/BRAKE LIGHT STOPPED WORKING. NOT EASILY FIXABLE. DEALERS ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND MAKE YOU PAY $700+ A PIECE FOR A WHOLE NEW ASSEMBLY. THE ISSUE APPEARS TO BE A FAULTY CIRCUIT BOARD INSIDE. THIS SHOULD BE SOMETHING THAT CAN BE TAKEN APART AND FIXED EASILY OR GM SHOULD REPLACE IT FOR FREE.

POWER TRAIN
I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIME FOR INSPECTION. THE FIRST TIME INVOLVED A REPEATED VIBRATION WHILE DRIVING. THE RESOLUTION WAS TO CHANGE OR FLUSH THE TRANSMISSION FLUID TO GET RID OF ANY METAL SHAVINGS. SINCE THEN I'VE TAKEN IT BACK INTO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE WITH REPORTS OF JERKING, A DELAYED START WHEN ACCELERATING, AND MOST RECENTLY A LURCHING WHEN SHIFTING BETWEEN REVERSE AND DRIVE. EACH TIME THEY HAVE SAID THIS IS NORMAL.

AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
AS YOU'RE ALREADY AWARE OF FROM SEVERAL PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS, THE DASH BOARD IN OUR VEHICLE IS CRACKED OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL, AND IS ALSO CRACKED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DASH. IT IS SPREADING OVER THE ENTIRE DASH AND COMPROMISED THE AIRBAG SYSTEM, WHICH IS TRULY A HAZARD. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. AND, THIS IS NOT A RESULT OF HEAT CRACKING THE DASHBOARD B/C WE KEEP OUR CAR IN THE GARAGE AND HARDLY DRIVE IT DURING THE WEEK! THIS IS DEFINITELY A DEFECT WITH GMC AND I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY WON'T RECALL IT!! EVEN TOYOTA HAS THE SAME ISSUE, EXCEPT THEY OFFERED A RECALL AND ALLOWED OWNERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET THE ISSUE FIXED. THIS IS TRULY A SAFETY HAZARD AND I'M SO DISAPPOINTED IN GMC. CHEAP AND WON'T FIX THEIR MANUFACTURE MISTAKE!!!
