ENGINE
We have a 2021 Yukon Denali. It has just over 12,000 miles on it. My wife called me In a frenzy today saying the motor was making a poping noise and it was pulling her on the interstate. She was very concered, but managed to make it home From Her 15 mile exit. When she got home, it was evident that the lifters are to blame For This incident. GMC needs to recall all these 2021 GMC Yukons with all these lifter problems. Very unsafe. We plan on getting rid of the vehicle.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Headlights are terrible. Driving at night is treacherous because the headlights are not very bright unless I can use brights which seems like they could be low beam instead of high beam. With oncoming traffic it is hard to see the road and I get scared it may cause an accident, either hitting an oncoming car or going off the road myself. It's terrible. Others have commented on the headlights also asking me how can I see. There is no film on the covering over headlights. I Can see the bulbs just fine but they look burnt. My husband thought so too. Just scared driving at night. Need better Headlights!

SERVICE BRAKES
While I was in line at the gas station to get gas, I moved up because the car I front of me had done so. After moving up a bit, I pressed my feet on the brake but the pedal was very stiff and the breaks did not hardly engage. I almost ran into the vehicle in front of me. This was very scary. So I called for a tow truck to pick me up but after a while they didn’t show. I started my car up to see if the the brakes engaged and they did. So I slowly and carefully drove myself to the GMC dealership in Southaven, MC which was 0.3 mile away from the gas station. The GMC dealership said that it was vacuum pump that was at fault and admitted it was a recall for this. But they said since my truck has already been serviced for this recall that I would have to pay to get it fixed. This is absolutely absurd. If the issue was not fixed properly in the first place, why would I be responsible for getting it fixed the second time?
