EXTERIOR LIGHTING
LED BRAKE LIGHTS GO OUT QUICKLY WITHOUT ANY WARNING ON THE DASHBOARD. MULTIPLE ONLINE COMPLAINTS OF SAME ISSUE TO THE POINT THAT MULTIPLE BUSINESSES ADVERTISE ABOUT THIS SPECIFIC FIX. DEALERSHIP WANTS $1500 FOR REPAIR OF BOTH AND DESPITE ONLINE ADVERTISEMENTS THEY DENY THIS IS A PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE WHATEVER THE CAUSE IT BYPASSES THE DASHBOARD ALARM. YOU HAVE TO FIND OUT VIA ACCIDENT, COLLISION, OR BY RECEIVING A TICKET.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2015 GMC YUKON XL HAVE A CONDITION THAT ALLOW WATER TO LEAK INTO THE VEHICLE'S ROOF-MOUNTED ANTENNA. THIS CONDITION PREVENTS THE VEHICLE'S ONSTAR SYSTEM FROM ACCURATELY DETERMINING THE VEHICLE'S LOCATION; DISABLE THE VEHICLE'S COMPASS, NAVIGATION, AND XM RADIO SYSTEMS; ILLUMINATE THE VEHICLE'S RED ONSTAR LED INDICATOR. GMC CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM ' LOSS OF GPS, ONSTAR AND XM ANTENNA FUNCTIONS ' 2015 CADILLAC CHEVROLET GMC 15155 EXPIRED AUGUST 2017 BUT DOES NOT ADDRESS A SOLUTION FOR THE VEHICLES THAT MISSED THE DEADLINE.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
DRIVER SIDE LEFT BRAKE LIGHT LED POOR QUALITY, FAILED. TURN SIGNAL WORKS, BRAKE LIGHT DOESN'T. LEDS ARE SUPPOSED TO LAST LONGER THAN INCANDESCENT BULBS (AND AT THE EXPENSIVE PRICE OF $500+ TO FIX THIS EACH TIME IT GOES OUT PEOPLE WILL BE LESS APT TO FIX), BUT THIS IS APPARENTLY A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM FROM LOOKING INTO IT. THERE WAS NO CATALYST THAT SET THE PROBLEM OFF, JUST FAILED ON ITS OWN.

SERVICE BRAKES
DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED THROUGH A DRIVE THROUGH AND MY BRAKES FAILED WHEN I TRIED TO STOP BEFORE PULLING OUT ONTO A CROSS STREET. PEDAL LOCKED, AND VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ROLL. AFTER STEPPING ON THE BRAKES A FEW TIMES THEY ENGAGED AGAIN. SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN I WAS LEAVING A PARKING LOT, ONLY THIS TIME THE BRAKES WOULD NOT ENGAGE AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. I COASTED INTO A POTTED DECORATIVE TREE THAT STOPPED ME, SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND BACK INTO DRIVE AND THEY BEGAN WORKING AGAIN. NO WARNING SIGNALS APPEARED ON DASH, AND BRAKES AND BRAKE FLUID HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND ALL ARE SATISFACTORY.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE REAR LEFT LIGHT DOES NOT WORK CONSISTENTLY. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALER THE WHOLE LIGHT ASSEMBLY WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACE AT A COST OF $800. THE YUKON IS PASSED THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY BY A FEW MONTHS BUT BELOW THE 36000 MILES. THE EXTENDED WARRANTY DOESN'T COVER THE LIGHT ASSEMBLY EITHER. GO FIGURE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE REAR LED LIGHTS ON THIS GMC SUV ACCORDING TO NUMEROUS WEB SITES.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
JUST GOT THIS VEHICLE 2 MONTHS AGO. BRAKE LIGHTS SEEM TO WORK WHEN THE WANT TO. HAVE READ OTHERS REVIEWS AND SEEMS EVERYONE WITH THIS VEHICLE IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE! THE CRUISE CONTROL WORKS WHEN IT WANTS TOO,. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS OFF AND ON HAD IT CHECKED ONCE WHILE ON AND WAS TOLD IT'S AN O2 SENSOR. WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON REMOTE START WON'T WORK. SEEMS THE BRAKE LIGHT ISSUE IS PURPOSEFUL SINCE SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND IT COSTS SO DANG MUCH TO FIX IT! FOR SUCH A NICE VEHICLE AND EXPENSIVE PAYMENT YOU WOULD THINK THERE WOULD BE NO ISSUES.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I PUT IN ANOTHER COMPLAINT AND FORGOT TO ADD MAYBE THE MOST IMPORTANT DETAILS!!!! I HAVE NOTICED MY CRUISE CONTROL, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, BRAKE LIGHTS, AND REMOTE START THOUGH I'M HAVING ISSUES WITH THEM ALL WORKING ONLY WHEN THEY WANT TO IT SEEMS WHEN IT'S HOT OUTSIDE ALL OF THESE THINGS GO HAY WIRE AND WHEN IT'S FREEZING COLD (COLORADO WINTER) EVERYTHING WORKS FINE. TODAY HIGH OF 40 EVERYTHING IS WORKING FINE... HIGHS IN THE 80+ EVERYTHING SEEMS TO NOT WORK. SO IT'S BASICALLY BOILING DOWN TO ELECTRICAL ISSUES WHEN IT'S HOT AND NO ISSUES WHEN IT'S FREEZING COLD. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE FIX THIS!!!! I'VE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF OTHERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WITH HEAT AND ELECTRICAL ISSUES.(CARGURUS.COM) PLEASE SOMEONE DO SOMETHING GM NEEDS TO FIX THIS!!!!!!!! I ONLY HOPE OTHERS HAVE MADE THESE COMPLAINTS SO GM CAN BE HELD RESPONSIBLE! 800$ FOR A BRAKE LIGHT GET OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!! AND THAT'S JUST THE PRICE TO FIX THE BRAKE LIGHT WHEN IT DECIDES NOT TO WORK AND I'M NOT PAYING THAT MUCH TO FIX ONE ISSUE WHEN IT SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING WITH THIS VEHICLE AND HEAT!

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
PURCHASED MY 2015 GMC YUKON IN JUNE 2017. WHEN I INITIALLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE EVERYTHING WAS FINE. AROUND MAY OR JUNE OF 2018 THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT WAS FILLED WITH CONDENSATION AND I WAS QUOTED $1462 FOR LABOR AND PARTS. MIND YOU THE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 50K MILES ON IT. I SENT A COMPLAINT TO THE CORPORATE OFFICE AND ENDED UP PAYING $860 DOLLARS TO HAVE IT FIXED. HERE IT IS NOW OCTOBER AND NOW BOTH THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE INTERMITTENTLY WORKING. I JUST TOOK THE TRUCK IN FOR A RECENT RECALL FOR A STEERING ISSUE. I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY THERE ARE SO MANY ISSUES RELATED TO THE LIGHTS. SO I WILL NOW HAVE TO PAY GET THE TAILLIGHTS FIXED. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER ISSUES NOT TESTED AND I AM CURRENTLY FLU AT THE POINT OF READING THIS VEHICLE IN.

STEERING
WAS DRIVING ABOUT 7-10 MPH IN A WAL MART PARKING LOT WHEN THE STEERING ON MY 2015 GMC YUKON DENALI COMPLETELY GAVE OUT WHICH CAUSED ME TO SCRAP A POLE ON THE BACK DOOR BEHIND DRIVER. FINALLY WHEN VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD FREELY SPIN AND NOT IN GAUGE THE TIRES TO ROTATE. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST GMC DEAR SHIP TO HAVE THEM ASSES THE PROBLEM AND TOLD THEM THIS HAS TO BE FROM THE ROOT CAUSE OF A RECALL THAT A SENSOR WILL LOSE TEMP CONNECTION WITH STEERING AND MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. WHICH DID AS WELL AS INJURY TO MY WIFE WHO WAS DRIVING. NOW THE VEHICLE IS AT THE GMC DEALERSHIP GIVING ME A RUN A ROUND THAT THE STEERING COLUMN MAGICALLY SNAPPED AND NEEDS TO BE COVERED THROUGH EXTENDED WARRANTY. I HAVE AN OPEN COMPLAINT WITH THE DEALERSHIP AS WELL AS GMC IT SELF. PLEASE IF YOU OWN THIS YEAR VEHICLE BE VERY CAREFUL THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A REALLY HORRIBLE SITUATION.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
DRIVERS AND PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHT GO OUT INTERMITTENTLY. PASSENGER STAYS OFF FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME. LOOKED INTO REPLACING NO IDEA IF IT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. COST AT LEAST $500. EACH PARTS ONLY. I HAVE SEEN SO MANY OTHER VEHICLES LIKE MINE SAME PROBLEM. HEADLIGHTS ALSO GOING OUT, WATER INSIDE OF COVER. LED AND TURN SIGNAL WENT OUT ON DRIVERS SIDE REPLACED FOR A COST OF $900.00, (JUST FOR THE HEADLIGHT) AGAIN NO GUARANTEE IT WILL KEEP WORKING. ALSO BATTERY WENT DEAD REPLACED BATTERY. NEW BATTERY ALSO WENT DEAD. CAR ALARM WENT OFF THE NIGHT BEFORE BATTERY DEAD IN THE MORNING. HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 3 WEEKS NOW. SAME THING HAPPENS ALARM GOES OFF KILLS BATTERY. SHOWS MASSIVE DRAIN AND SET ABOUT 32 CODES. THE DRAIN DOESN'T REGISTER AFTER THAT. RECHARGE BATTERY CAR IS NOT RUNNING WHEN THIS HAPPENS. PROBLEM REPEATS EVERY TIME AFTER CHARGING THE BATTERY. SOMETHING IN THE WIRING IS SHORTING OUT. TESTED BOTH BATTERIES THEY BOTH TEST GOOD. AFRAID OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT WITH THE ELECTRICAL ON THE VEHICLE. NOT SURE IF THE LIGHTS HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS OR NOT. WHEN ORDERING HEADLIGHT AND ASKING ABOUT BRAKES TOLD BY DEALER PARTS THEY SURE ARE SELLING A BUNCH OF THESE. I HAVE HAD PEOPLE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD STOP ME TO TELL ME MY BRAKE LIGHT IS OUT. I DID NOT KNOW THAT THE TURN SIGNAL ON THE FRONT WAS NOT WORKING UNTIL A CAR PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME WHILE WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. I GOT OUT AND LOOKED AT THE LIGHT AND IT WAS NOT WORKING. I CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT ALL BECAUSE IT KEEPS DRAINING THE BATTERY. I HAVE A ASE CERTIFIED MASTER TECHNICIAN WORKING ON THE VEHICLE IN A REPUTABLE SHOP.
