ENGINE
MY YUKON HAS A LEAKING RADIATOR WHICH IS A KNOWN DEFECT NOT JUST IN YUKONS, BUT ALSO IN TAHOES, SILVERADOS, SUBURBANS AND OTHER VEHICLES. GM REFUSES TO COVER THE REPAIR FOR ALL TRUCKS, ONLY CERTAIN ONES. I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE CRITERIA THEY ARE USING IS...BUT IT IS THE SAME DEFECT AFFECTING ALL OF THE VEHICLES. *TR

I HAVE AN 2008 YUKON WITH A CRACKED DASH BOARD IN MANY DEFERENTS PARTS. THE CRACKS ARE SO BAD THAT WHILE DRIVING EVERYTHING SHAKES AND MAKE ALL RADDLING NOISES. THE SECTION AROUND THE AIR BAG MAKES LOTS OF NOISE. THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. JUST BOUGH THE CAR ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND IT WAS CRACKED THEN.

2016 YUKON DENALI, BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS MALFUNCTION WITH ON 78K MILES. I CAN'T AFFORD NEW BRAKE LIGHTS AS THEY ARE MANUFACTURER ONLY AND $800 A POP. I PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY TO COVER ANY OF THESE EXPENSES AT ANOTHER 3K, AND THE DEALER TELLS ME HEADLIGHTS, TAIL-LIGHTS ARE NOT COVERED. I SHOULD HAVE RESEARCHED BETTER, OR WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT A VEHICLE WITH ANY LED LIGHTS. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
YUKON HAS 27,855 MILES ON IT AND THE FUEL INJECTORS HAVE GONE BAD AND STALLS WHILE DRIVING. IDLES ROUGH AND WHEN ACCELERATING THE YUKON JOLTS. COST IS $2,200 DEALER IN CHANTILLY VA. CHECK ENGINE STATES THAT THE VEHICLE MISFIRES BASED ON DEALER'S DIAGNOSTIC. NO WARRANTY TO COVER THE VEHICLE. OTHER COMPLAINTS OF OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME SYSTEMATIC FAILURES OF THE FUEL INJECTORS AND THERE IS BACK LOG FOR THE PART. NOT SURE HOW A LOW MILEAGE VEHICLE WOULD NEED TO REPLACE FUEL INJECTORS WITH LESS THAN 30,000 MILES. OTHERWISE THE VEHICLE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
IN THE LAST YEAR, BOTH OF THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS HAVE FAILED IN MY 2017 GMC YUKON. TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP REPLACE THE TAIL LIGHTS IT COST +$750 PER TAIL LIGHT FOR A CAR THAT IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD. I WORK WITH LED LIGHTING AND ON AVERAGE, LED LIGHTS SHOULD LAST FOR 5000 HOURS OF USE. THERE IS NO WAY THAT IN THE LAST 3 YEARS WE HAVE UTILIZED 5000 HOURS OF DRIVE TIME TO WARRANT THAT THESE LED'S SHOULD BE BURNING OUT. I BELIEVE THAT THE LED'S THAT THEY ARE USING ARE DEFECTIVE AND A CASE NEEDS TO BE MADE TO SEE IF GMC IS HAVING ISSUES WITH THE REAR TAIL LIGHT LED'S, THE PARTS ARE WAY TOO EXPENSIVE TO BE FAILING AFTER A FEW YEARS OF INTERMITTENT USE. *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE REAR TAIL LIGHT KEEPS GOING OUT. IT WAS ALREADY REPLACED ONCE AT MY DEALERSHIP. NOW THE SAME LIGHT LESS THAN 3 YEARS IS NOT FUNCTIONING. POSING A SAFETY CONCERN AS OTHER VEHICLES WOULD NOT SEE ME AT A COMPLETE STOP DUE TO MY REAR PASSENGER LIGHT NOT WORKING. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL. ITS A VERY COMMON THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND GMC SHOULD HAVE THIS FIXED ASAP. TRIED CALLING GMC AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME WITH THE REPAIR COST OF MY REAR PASSENGER TAIL LIGHT. I STATED THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE AND REQUIRED THEIR ATTENTION. TO NO AVAIL I WAS DENIED ANY ASSISTANCE. THE LIGHT ITSELF AT MY DEALERSHIP IS $800 NOT INCLUDING LABOR. THIS IS MY EVERY DAY FAMILY DRIVER CAR. I HAVE BEEN STOPPED BY COPS AND GIVEN WARNINGS AND BY OTHER PASSER BY'S THAT MY BRAKE LIGHT IS NOT FUNCTIONING SAFELY AND APPROPRIATELY. THIS NEEDS TO BE ESCALATED TO A SAFETY RECALL. AS THERE ARE MANY THREADS WITH OTHER GMC YUKON OWNERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. THANK YOU. *TR

MANUFACTURE DEFECTIVE , FRONT DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS HIGH CONDENSATION WHICH CONTINUES TO GET WORSE. IT HAS CAUSED THE LIGHT TO MALFUNCTION AND NOW WILL NOT WORK. I WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC THAT THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IF NOT THE BULBS WILL CONTINUE TO BURN OUT DUE TO THE CONDENSATION. *TR

RIGHT REAR TAIL LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT STOPPED WORKING. IT IS AN LED LIGHT AND VERY EXPENSIVE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS LACK OF A BRAKE LIGHT ON ONE SIDE IS IN VIOLATION OF LEGAL REQUIREMENTS. LED LIGHTS SHOULD NOT QUIT FUNCTIONING AFTER 5 YEARS AND 85,000 MILES. *TR

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
VEHICLE HAS A ROUGH IDLE AT COLD START. ALSO MISFIRES AT STOPLIGHTS AND RANDOM TIMES. VEHICLE STALLED ONCE THIS MORNING COMPLETELY. TOLD BY MY GMC DEALERSHIP THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE ALL FUEL INJECTORS FOR OVER $2,000. I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN MARCH. THE FUEL INJECTORS ARE ON BACK-ORDER CURRENTLY SO I AM UNABLE TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. I WAS TOLD ANOTHER VEHICLE LIKE MINE AT THAT SERVICE CENTER HAS BEEN WAITING ALREADY FOR 6 WEEKS FOR FUEL INJECTORS AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT AT LEAST ANOTHER MONTH. THIS MEANS I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO REGISTER MY VEHICLE WITH MY STATE AS IT WILL NOT PASS SMOG INSPECTION WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO REGISTER IT DUE TO THE DMV CLOSURE FROM COVID-19. ITS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT CAN STALL AT ANY MOMENT AND IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX WITHOUT WAITING FOR PARTS. THESE PARTS ARE OBVIOUSLY ON BACK-ORDER SO LONG BECAUSE THIS IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM. I FOUND A SERVICE BULLETIN FROM NHTSA ( DCS5097 ) WHICH COVERS MY PROBLEM EXACTLY. BUT FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON, SPECIAL COVERAGE ONLY APPLIES TO 13 STATES. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MUCH MORE WIDESPREAD PROBLEM THAN THOUGHT AND I BELIEVE MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF THOSE AROUND ME IS AT RISK IF I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE AND THOSE LIKE MINE SHOULD BE COVERED BY SPECIAL COVERAGE AS WELL. AND AT THE VERY LEAST THE PARTS TO FIX THIS SHOULD BE AVAILABLE GIVEN THAT ITS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE NOW FOR WELL OVER A YEAR. THESE PARTS HAVE BEEN BACK-ORDERED WAY BEFORE COVID-19 EVEN HIT, SO IT CANNOT BE ATTRIBUTED TO THAT. GM HAS AN OBLIGATION TO KEEP THEIR VEHICLES ON THE ROAD SAFE AND MAINTAINED TO THE BEST OF THEIR ABILITY AND WHEN IT COMES TO THIS ISSUE THEY ARE FAILING TO DO SO. *TR
