EXTERIOR LIGHTING
DRIVER SIDE BREAK LIGHT WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. AFTER RESEARCHING MULTIPLE OWNERS IN SIMILAR MODEL YEARS HAVE NOTED THE ISSUE BEING INSIDE OF THE LIGHT ITSELF HAVING AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. BUT THE DEALERSHIP WANTS $750 FOR A NEW ONE WHEN THE PROBLEM IS WIDE SPREAD, NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND MADE RIGHT.

AIR BAGS
I WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION WHERE MY VEHICLE ENDED UP IN A DITCH AND HIT A CEMENT CULVERT HEAD ON. THE STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY. ALL AIRBAGS ALONG THE SIDES OF THE VEHICLE DID, BUT NEITHER FRONT WERE ACTIVATED. ALTHOUGH I DIDN'T HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE, THERE WERE OTHER ITEMS IN THE SEAT THAT WERE QUITE HEAVY.

AIR BAGS
SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT. A FEW MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT STARTED GOING ON OCASSIONALY. BECAUSE IT WAS SO INTERMITTANT IT COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. AS SOON AS IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY IT STARTED STAYING ON ALL THE TIME AND I WAS TOLD AT THE DEALER THAT THE AIR BAGS WEREN'T WORKING SO I HAD TO PAY $450 TO GET IT REPAIRED EVEN THOUGH THERE HAD ALWAYS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE NEW. VEHICLE NOW HAS 17,000 MILES ON IT.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
PASSENGER SIDE REAR BRAKE LIGHT SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. IT IS AN LED LIGHT WHICH SHOULD NEVER HAVE TO BE REPLACED. OUR LOCAL GMC SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THAT IT IS THE 'DRIVER' ATTACHED TO THE LED BULB THAT IS FAULTY, BUT IT CANNOT SIMPLY BE REPLACED. THEY HAVE TO REINSTALL AN ENTIRE TAIL LIGHT WHICH APPARENTLY IS PRETTY COSTLY. I WAS QUOTED $925. AGAIN, NOTHING WRONG WITH THE LIGHT BULB ITSELF. SHOULDN'T COST $925 TO FIX.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE LED LIGHTS ON THE LEFT REAR TAIL LIGHT ARE DEFECTIVE. THEY FLICKER OR DO NOT WORK AT ALL. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 43,000 MILES. TO FIX THE ISSUE REQUIRES REPLACING THE ENTIRE TAIL LIGHT AT A COST OF MORE THAN $800. IT SHOULD BE A RECALL ON A DEFECTIVE PART.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
DRIVER'S SIDE BRAKE LIGHT NOT WORKING. APPARENTLY A COMMON PROBLEM IN THESE YEAR YUKONS, AND GMC REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM. REPAIR IS EXORBITANTLY EXPENSIVE, AND GMC SHOULD PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES, AND HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS ARE OUT. IT'S BECAUSE OF A DEFECT IN DESIGN. THE METAL BRACKET THAT HOLDS THE BRAKE LIGHT LEDS IS CRACKED AND BREAKS THE CIRCUIT, THEREFORE THE LIGHTS WON'T WORK. LED LIGHTS SHOULD WORK FOR QUITE A LONG TIME. ONLY WAY TO FIX IT THROUGH THE DEALER IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY TO THE TUNE OF APPROXIMATELY $1400 FOR BOTH LIGHTS. IT CAN BE REPAIRED BY CUTTING THE ASSEMBLY OPEN AND SOLDERING THE CRACK IN THE LED BRACKET. THERE ARE MANY INSTANCES OF THIS BEING REPORTED ONLINE. DEALERS DENY ENCOUNTERING THE PROBLEM. GMC IS NOT ADDRESSING THE ISSUE. THERE ARE REPORTED CASES ONLINE WHERE GMC YUKON OWNERS HAVE OF COURSE HAD THE REPAIRS MADE WITHIN WARRANTY WITH NO COST BUT AS SOON AS THE WARRANTY IS OUT AND THE PROBLEM REOCCURS, THEN THE OWNER HAS TO PAY APPROXIMATELY $700 PER LIGHT TO REPLACE THE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, NO BRAKE LIGHTS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS WRECKS AND INJURY.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE VEHICLE IS A 7 PASSENGER 2015 GMC YUKEN VEHICLE. BOTH REAR TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLIES HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $500.00 EACH. THE ENTIRE LIGHTING ASSEMBLY INCLUDING BRAKE LIGHT FAILED. THE OPERATOR IS NEVER MADE AWARE BY THE VEHICLE WARNING SYSTEM THAT THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE OR TAIL LIGHTS ARE NOT FUNCTIONING. THE ONLY WAY THE HAZARD IS IDENTIFIED IS IF ANOTHER OPERATOR NOTIFIES THE OWNER. BEING THAT THE VEHICLE IS A 7 PASSENGER AND USUALLY CARRYING CHILDREN ARE IN THE THIRD ROW THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. A REAR END COLLISION DUE TO NO LIGHTS OR BRAKE LIGHTS IS VERY POSSIBLE. I CONTACTED GMC AND THEY ARE AWARE OF THE LED LIGHTS FAILING HOWEVER DUE TO THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO RECALL THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR THE NEW LED LIGHTS. DOES IT HAVE TO TAKE A VEHICLE BEING REAR ENDED AND A CHILD INJURED OR KILLED TO HAVE THESE VEHICLES RECALLED? THIS ISSUE IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET, ONE HAS TO TYPE GMC LED LIGHT FAILURE AND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING
