EXTERIOR LIGHTING
2015 GMC YUKON DENALI, BREAK LIGHT MALFUNCTION, DRIVING, PARKED WITH NO INDICATION WHEN IT WILL WORK OR NOT. DEALERSHIP AND GMC SERVICE CENTER CLAIMED THERE WERE NO OR VERY FEW COMPLAINTS HOWEVER I HAVE FOUND HUNDREDS ALREADY. THEY REFUSED TO EVEN LOOK AT THE LIGHT STATING I CAN GET IT REPLACED FOR AROUND $775 BECAUSE THEY CANNOT CHANGE BULBS ON THAT TYPE OF TAIL LIGHT. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS NEW FEATURE STARTING WITH MY YEAR MODEL AND SINCE GMC WENT WITH ENCASED LED LIGHTS THEY NO LONGER CAN FIX THEM UNDER WARRANTY. THIS WAS NEVER DISCLOSED ANYWHERE AND GMC DOES NOT STATE THAT ANYWHERE I COULD FIND AND WILL NOT COVER IT UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH IT IS OBVIOUSLY A WIRING ISSUE SINCE THE LIGHT DOES WORK SOMETIMES. I ALSO HAD PROOF WITH PICTURES THAT THE TAIL LIGHT DOES WORK SOMETIMES BUT NOT CONSTANTLY AND THE DEALER REFERRED ME TO GMC SERVICE CENTER. THE GMC SERVICE CENTER BASICALLY EXPLAINED THE SAME THING, THAT THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF COMPLAINTS AND THOSE WOULD NOT BE COVERED BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS ACTUALLY BROKE OR OUT, AND THAT IS NOT COVERED. THEY ACTUALLY SUGGESTED I GO BACK TO THE PURCHASING DEALERSHIP WHICH IS THE ONE THAT SENT ME TO THEM, JUST GOT THE GO AROUND WITH NO ACTION. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE IF THE LIGHTS STOP WORKING SUDDENLY, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE WHOLE LIGHT GOES BLACK. NOW I CANNOT GET MY VEHICLE REGISTERED DUE TO THE LIGHT AND WILL NEED TO FIX OR REPLACE A FACTORY ISSUE WITH THE LIGHT JUST TO GET MY VEHICLE INSPECTED AND REGISTERED.

PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHT INCONSISTANLY WILL WORK ONE DAY THEN STOP WORKING. THE NEXT DAY IT WILL BE WORKING AGAIN. THE BRAKE LIGHT IS AN LED STRIP AND CANNOT BE REPLACED. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR MONTHS AND THE CAR HAS 10K MILES. WE NEVER KNOW IF AND WHEN THE LIGHT WILL BE WORKING. I HAVE BEEN TAKING PICTURES DOCUMENTING THE BRAKE LIGHT AND IT APPEARS TO WORK FOR 2 WEEKS THEN GOES OUT FOR A WEEK AND THEN COMES BACK ON FOR TWO WEEKS.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
REAR PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHT STOPPED WORKING. INTERNET SEARCHES INDICATE THAT IT IS A FREQUENT PROBLEM WITH MANY COMPLAINTS. MOST NOTABLE IS THE DEALER COST TO REPLACE - $600 - $800 PER FIXTURE DUE TO IT BEING A SEALED UNIT AFTER WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. GM NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. A RECALL IS DEFINITELY IN ORDER.

POWER TRAIN, STEERING, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I GIVE!!! NOW BREAK LIGHTS NOT WORKING!!! RIGHT BREAK LIGHT IS OUT AND LEFT DRIVER IS INTERMITTENT. VEHICLE HAS 37K ON IT AND WAS JUST PICKED UP FROM THE DEALER AFTER HAVING 1 OF MANY ISSUES THROUGH THE PAST YEAR RECTIFIED AND NOW THIS! THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD AND COULD TREMENDOUSLY INJURE SOMEONE. RIGHT NOW MY CAR CANNOT EVEN PASS INSPECTION DUE TO THE FAULTY EQUIPMENT INSTALLED BY THE MANUFACTURE THAT IS A DANGER TO MY SAFETY. I HAVE OWNED MANY GMC'S (6 TOTAL) THROUGH THE YEARS AND THIS BEING THE WORST!! THE LATEST, I HAVE HAD THE TORQUE CONVERTER REPLACED IN AUG 18 - DUE TO SHUDDERING AND VIBRATION. THEN THE STEERING COLUMN REPLACED DUE TO POPPING , BACK HATCH HINGE REPLACED DUE TO POPPING AND MALFUNCTION, BACK GLASS DOOR RUBBER GASKET REPLACED DUE TO LEAKING, SHARKFIN ANTENNA REPLACED DUE TO LEAKING, SUNROOF GASKET REPLACED DUE TO LEAKING, NEW TIRES AT 500 MILES DUE TO EXCESSIVE VIBRATION. BACK DOOR ADJUSTED DUE TO SLAMMING, AND ADDITIONAL SLIGHT ISSUES. THE RADIO HAS A CONSTANT GLITCH ON THE SCREEN SINCE DAY ONE THAT AFTER BEING TAKEN IN NUMEROUS TIMES, OF COURSE THE DEALER CANNOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND KEEPS PERFORMING A FLASH UPDATE WHICH NEVER HELPS AND AS SOON AS I DRIVE OFF IT GLITCHES AGAIN. I HAVE CONTACTED GM REGARDING THE BRAKE LIGHTS, RADIO, AND NOW MY PASSENGER STEP IS MALFUNCTIONING NOT TO MENTION A RECALL WAS JUST RELEASED ON THE POWER STEERING. WILL THE REPAIRS EVER END? GUESS ONCE I TRADE IT IN ON ANOTHER MANUFACTURE AS THIS WILL MOST LIKELY BE THE LAST GMC I WILL EVER PURCHASE!! I DO NOT HAVE TIME TO LIVE MY LIFE AT THE DEALER FOR A HIGH END PURCHASE THAT IS THE WORST MISTAKE EVER!! NOT TO MENTION BEING A SAFETY HAZARD!!!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
WHEN USING STEERING TO TURN AROUND, TURN INTO A PARKING SPACE OR BACK IN, 'PARKING ASSIST OFF' SHOW UP ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL, THEN THE STEERING WHEELS LOCKS AND THE CAR TURNS OFF WHILE STILL ENGAGED IN DRIVE. SOMETIMES 'BRAKE ASSIST' COMES ON FIRST. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, UNABLE TO TURN STEERING WHEEL. CAR SHUTS DOWN AND DOORS LOCK. I HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART THE CAR. SOMETIMES IT DOES IT MORE THAN ONCE AFTER RESTARTING THE CAR. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A GMC DEALER FOR EVALUATION AND REPAIR. HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 6 DIFFERENT TIMES. WHEN DRIVING, I AM ALWAYS AFRAID TO MAKE SHARP TURNS. HOWEVER, IT HAS ONLY HAPPENED AT SLOW SPEEDS WHEN TRYING TO TURN IN TO A DRIVEWAY OR TURN AROUND SUCH AS IN A PARKING LOT. *DT CONSUMER STATED AFTER TAKING MY CAR TO GMC DEALER AND BEING TOLD MY VEHICLE NEEDED A SORTWARE UPDATE, MY CAR WENT A FEW WEEKS WITHOUT AN EPISODE UNTIL THIS EVENING AT 7:52PM EASTERN TIME, WHILE BACKING IN TO MY DRIVEWAY. THE STEERING WHEEL KICKED IN PLACE AND THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF AND DOORS LOCKED, LEAVING ME OUT IN THE STREET, UNABLE TO CONTROL MY CAR FOR SECONDS. UPDATED 10/18/18*JB UPDATED 10/26/18*JB

SERVICE BRAKES
THE PASSENGER TAIL LIGHT IS WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. THE DEALER SAID THAT THE ONLY FIX IS TO BUY A NEW BRAKE LIGHT UNIT @ $650. AFTER SEARCHING ON LINE, OTHER OPTIONS ARE TO SEND BRAKE LIGHT UNIT OFF FOR REPAIR, OR PURCHASE AFTER MARKET BRAKE LIGHT UNIT. AS MANY PEOPLE THAT ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE, IT SURE SEEMS LIKE GMC WOULD CORRECT THIS FAULTY BRAKE LIGHT.
