THE REAR LED TAILIGHT GOES IN AND OUT, WHILE DRIVING THE CAR. THE DEALER WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM UNLESS THE LIGHT IS NOT WORKING, BUT BECAUSE IT IS INTERMITTENT, WE CANNOT GET IT TO FAIL AT THE DEALERSHIP. WE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR 2 YEARS AND IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE TAIL LIGHT WILL NOT WORK.

PASSENGER SIDE REAR BRAKE LIGHT AND TAIL LIGHT STOPPED WORKING. THIS CANNOT BE FIXED WITH A SIMPLE BULB. THIS IS AN INTEGRATED LED REQUIRING THE ENTIRE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY TO BE REPLACED AT THE OWNERS EXPENSE. DEALER ESTIMATE WAS $800 AFTER INSTALLING.

TAIL LIGHT NO LONGER WORKING. SAFETY HAZARD. IT STARTED FLASHING INTERMITTENTLY AND SMELLING FUNNY NOW IT WON'T WORK AT ALL. THIS WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND OF COURSE IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY AS I'M AT 60K BUT GMC WILL DO NOTHING FOR IT EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A WIDELY KNOWN ISSUE. I CONTACTED THEM AND THEY WILL DO NOTHING!

BRAKE LIGHTS HAVE FAILED. I APPEARS TO BE DUE TO A FAULTY SOLIDER ON THE LED ASSEMBLY. BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS HAVE NOW FAILED. THE FAULT IS CONSTANT AND HAS NO RELATIONSHIP TO STATUS OF THE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE OR ROAD CONDITIONS. CONSUMER CAN NOT REPAIR THE FAULT DUE TO THE DESIGN OF THE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THE VEHICLE OWNER AND OTHER DRIVERS ARE BEING ENDANGERED BY THIS ISSUE THAT IS OBVIOUSLY A QUALITY ISSUE WITH THE PRODUCT.

SUNROOF: WHILE TRAVELING ON THE ROAD AT 55MPH, MY SUNROOF, WHICH WAS CLOSED, RANDOMLY EXPLODED. YOU CAN SEE THE GLASS ACTUALLY PUSHED UP AND OUT WHEN IT BLEW. WE HAD GLASS EVERYWHERE IN THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME AND THERE WAS NOTHING THAT CAME THROUGH THE WINDOW. IT WAS A NICE SUNNY DAY, NO RAIN OR OTHER REASON FOR THIS TO HAVE HAPPENED. I STOPPED RIGHT AWAY AND TOOK PHOTOS OF THE DAMAGE. I CALLED MY INSURANCE COMPANY RIGHT AWAY AND AM WAITING FOR THE SUNROOF TO BE REPLACED.

AFTER ABOUT 1 YEAR OF OWNING THIS VERY EXPENSIVE VEHICLE (BOUGHT IT WHEN IT WAS ABOUT 2 YEARS OLD, IE. 2017) USED FROM A GMC DEALER - THE DRIVERS SIDE TAIL LIGHT STARTED WORKING ONLY INTERMITTENTLY AND THEN STOP WORKING ALL TOGETHER. I HAD THE DEALER ESTIMATE THE REPLACEMENT COST AND THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD BE $1,500 TO REPLACE BOTH TAIL LIGHTS (SAID I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY BECAUSE THEY WERE LED????). THIS IS ABSURD ON SO MANY LEVELS...THESE ARE ONE OF THE MOST EXPENSIVE VEHICLES ON THE MARKET AND WITHIN ONLY A FEW YEARS THE TAIL LIGHTS NEED TO REPLACED...AT AN OUTRAGEOUS COST. MY LAST YUKON (2007) DIDN'T HAVE A TAIL LIGHT GO OUT FOR MANY YEARS...AND I BOUGHT A REPLACEMENT BULB FOR $3 AND DID IT MYSELF. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, IT APPEARS TO BE A "COMMON" ISSUE FOR THESE GMC VEHICLES...AND THE FACT THAT GMC IS WELL AWARE OF THIS IS DOING NOTHING ABOUT A KNOWN AND PERSISTENT ISSUE IS FRUSTRATING.

TAILIGHT BRAKE LIGHT NOT WORKING, NO REPLACEMENT BULB AVAILABLE, GM SAYS MUST BE ENTIRE UNIT AND HOUSING FOR $701. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND ONEROUS. THIS IS CLEARLY A DEFECTIVE DESIGN AND DEFECTIVE PART. SHOULD BE REPLACED OR REPAIRED FOR FREE.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
BOTH REAR TAIL LIGHTS (BRAKE AND RUNNING LIGHTS) ARE NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE PASSENGER SIDE ISN'T WORKING ALL TOGETHER AND THE DRIVERS SIDE WILL SOMETIMES BE ON AND OTHER TIMES NOT. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS $679 EACH SIDE FOR REPLACEMENTS. THIS SEEMS LIKE QUITE A BIG EXPENSE FOR A SAFETY ISSUE THAT GM NEEDS TO ADDRESS.

LED BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OUT. WHEN I DID A SEARCH ON THIS PROBLEM, DISCOVERED THAT MANY OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR YUKONS. DEALERS CHARGING ASTRONOMICAL PRICES TO FIX. LEDS ARE SUPPOSED TO LAST LONGER THAN REGULAR BULBS. THESE LIGHT ASSEMBLIES HAVE A WELL KNOWN WEAK SPOT THAT CAUSES THEM TO GO OUT. GMC HAS COME UP WITH AN UPDATED ASSEMBLY. THEY SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL AND REPLACE THE ORIGINAL WEAK ASSEMBLIES WITH THE NEW ONES.

AT LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD BOTH TAILLIGHTS HAVE QUIT. THEY ARE A SEALED ASSEMBLY SO THE WHOLE SIDE NEEDS REPLACED. WE WERE QUOTED $750 EACH. OUR THREE YEAR OLD YUKON HAS NO TAILLIGHTS AND WILL TAKE $1500 TO REPLACE. I'M DISAPPOINTED IN GM TO SAY THE LEAST.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE BRAKE LIGHTS, TAIL LIGHTS, AND THE INTERIOR REAR BRAKE LIGHT FLICKERED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DELANO CHEVROLET BUICK GMC (600 1ST AVE, DELANO, CA 93215, 661-735-4974) TO BE DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED. THE DIAGNOSIS RESULTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 92,000.

SERVICE BRAKES, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I WAS TOLD MY A COLLEGUE THAT MY DRIVERS SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WAS OUT. I TOOK IT INTO THE LOCAL MECHANIC AND IT WAS NOT OUT. A FEW MONTHS GO BY AND I AM TOLD AGAIN, THAT MY DRIVERS SIDE TAIL LIGHT IS OUT. I TAKE IT TO A DIFFERENT SHOP AND IT IS WORKING CORRECTLY. THE VERY NEXT DAY A TRUCK TELLS ME AT A STOP LIGHT THAT I HAVE NO BRAKE LIGHTS. I WAS PULLED OVER BY A POLICE OFFICER FOR NOT HAVING PROPERLY WORKING BREAK LIGHTS. HE LET'S ME GO WITH A FRIENDLY NOTICE, BUT AS SOON AS I STARTED MY VEHICLE TO DRIVE AWAY HE IMMEDIATELY PULLS ME BACK OVER TO TELL ME THAT HE WAS MISTAKEN THAT ONLY MY DRIERS SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WAS OUT. THIS HAS HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY OVER THE LAST THREE TO FOUR MONTHS.

BRAKE LIGHTS ONLY WORK INTERMITTENTLY. THIS POSES A SAFETY HAZARD WHILE DRIVING AND COULD CAUSE A WRECK. REPLACEMENT IS $800 PER LIGHT, VERY COST PROHIBITIVE.

BRAKE LIGHTS ARE FAILING INTERMITTENTLY. DEALER HAS RECOMMENDED REPLACING BOTH TAIL LIGHT HOUSING ASSEMBLIES AT A SIGNIFICANT COST OF $750 EACH. DEALER HAS ALSO STATED THIS IS A "COMMON PROBLEM" OF THE 2015 GMC VEHICLES WITH AN LED BRAKE LIGHT DESIGN; NO EASY OR AFFORDABLE SOLUTION OUT THERE.
