2015 GMC YUKON Complaints

BOTH OF MY TAILLIGHTS WENT COMPLETELY OUT ON MY 2015 YUKON DENALI. I WAS TOLD BY A STRANGER WHO ASKED ME TO PULL OVER THAT BOTH LIGHTS WERE COMPLETELY OUT (SPECIFICALLY INSIDE OUR RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY). I HAVE A FOUR YEAR OLD AND A BABY WITH MY HANDS FULL. I WAS SO GRATEFUL TO THE STRANGER THAT INFORMED ME- PREVENTING A POTENTIAL ACCIDENT WITH MY BABIES IN THE CAR. I CALLED TO SEE HOW MUCH THE REPLACEMENT LIGHTS WOULD BE. WITH LABOR WE WERE LOOKING AT $2,000 AT THE DEALERSHIP! TO ME THIS WAS OUTRAGEOUS... ESPECIALLY AFTER DOING RESEARCH AND SEEING THAT MANY 2015 YUKON DENALI OWNERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND THIS IS NOT YET A RECALL FOR GMC! WHEN WILL THE ISSUE BE RECALLED?... HEAVEN FORBID NOT AFTER A HORRIFIC ACCIDENT FROM A BLATANT SAFETY ISSUE THAT THEY ARE NOT TAKING SERIOUSLY! WE PROCEEDED TO CALL GMC COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT TO FILE A COMPLAINT- THE WOMAN LIED AND TOLD ME SHE HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS BEING AN ISSUE BUT EVEN IF SHE HAD SHE COULDN'T TELL ME.... NEEDLESS TO SAY MY COMPLAINT WENT UPON DEAF EARS AT GMC. I HAD NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO ORDER TWO NEW TAILLIGHTS THROUGH GMC.... NOW THAT I AM AWAITING MY ORDER I'M THINKING THAT I COULD EXPERIENCE THE SAME ISSUE WITH MY NEW LIGHTS. ADDING TO MY FRUSTRATION, THE PARTS DEPARTMENT SOLIDIFIED THAT THE TAILLIGHT ISSUE IS INCESSANT WITH THIS MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR... AND THEY NEED TO KEEP MY TAILLIGHTS WHEN THEY ISSUE MY NEW LIGHTS. I COULDN'T HELP BUT FIND THIS STRANGE AND BECAME SKEPTICAL THAT THEY NEED TO KEEP MY FAULTY TAILLIGHTS. I'M FRUSTRATED AND NERVOUS DRIVING MY VEHICLE WITH MY CHILDREN. I'M WORRIED FOR OUR SAFETY AND I PRAY MY COMPLAINT IS TAKEN SERIOUSLY. GMC NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR FAULTY PRODUCTS. MY LEFT LIGHT IS HALF WAY OUT NOW BC MY DAD TRIED TO WELD A BRIDGE TO TURN THE LIGHTS BACK ON IN THE MEAN TIME... DIDN'T END UP WORKING.

THE REAR POWER LOCKS ARE INOPERATIVE AT TIMES- WHEN USING THE KEYLESS ENTRY AND THE MASTER SWITCH. OWNER IS HAVING TO REACH TO THE BACK SEAT TO OPEN THE BACK DOORS WITH THE BACK DOOR LOCKS TO ALLOW PASSENGERS (CHILDREN) OUT OF THE VEHICLE. IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION, THE BACK SEAT PASSENGERS ARE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO GET OUT ON THEIR OWN, OR BE ABLE TO GET OUT QUICKLY WITH ASSISTANCE. THIS ALSO MAKES THE CHILD LOCK FUNCTION UNUSABLE AS THE BACK DOORS WOULD NEVER OPEN.

BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OUT. DEALER SAID HAD TO REPLACE ENTIRE FIXTURE. NOT COVERED UNDER BUMPER TO BUMPER EXTENDED WARRANTY PURCHASED. SAFETY HAZARD THAT MANY OTHER 2015 YUKON OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED. TRIM/SEAL APPLIQUS AROUND DOOR WINDOWS ALSO COMING OFF AND ALSO NOT CO WEED UNDER B2B WARRANTY. SHOTTILY MADE VEHICLE.

DRIVER SIDE REAR BRAKE LIGHT WORKING INTERMITTENTLY, APPROX. 10% OF THE TIME. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND SAID IT IS KNOWN ISSUE WITH MOST DENALI BRAKE LIGHTS. WAS QUOTED TO REPLACE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY $900. EACH SIDE FOR THIS KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND KNOWN BY GMC WITH NO RECALLS AVAILABLE.

PASSENGER SIDE TAIL LIGHT STOPS WORKING OCCASIONALLY. THIS AFFECT'S THE BRAKE LIGHT AND NIGHT DRIVING. IT HAS STOPPED WORKING UP TO A WEEK AT A TIME, BUT THEN STARTS WORKING AGAIN. IT MIGHT BE WEATHER RELATED.

TAIL LIGHTS WORK INCONSISTENTLY, DEALERSHIP TELLS ME IT'S COMMON PROBLEM WITH MY YEAR AND MODEL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE ABS AND BRAKE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BUICK GMC OF KIRKLAND (12335 120TH AVE NE, KIRKLAND, WA 98034, (877) 505-6211) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL SPEED SENSORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V761000 (ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, SERVICE BRAKES). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,000. *DT*JB

BRAKE LIGHT GOES IN AND OUT AND DOESN'T WORK ALL THE TIME. ACCORDING TO WHAT I'M READING IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. THERE IS NO FIX EXCEPT BUYING A BRAND NEW ONE AND THAT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT. SEEMS LIKE A POOR DESIGN AND NOT TO MENTION I CAN GET A TICKET FOR THIS. AND MOST IMPORTANT...I HAVE A FAMILY WITH TWO SMALL KIDS AND THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IF MY BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK!

CAR WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF OUR HOUSE AND COMBUSTED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WHILE WE WERE SLEEPING. CAR WAS EXPLODING AND ENGULFED IN FLAMES...COMPLETELY DESTROYED VIA FIRE AND THE WORST DAMAGE WAS IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. CAUSE OF THE FIRE IS UNKNOWN ALTHOUGH BASED ON RESEARCH SOUNDS LIKE NHTSA CAMPAIGN #14V007000 OR 14V152000. FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE AND POLICE WERE ON THE SCENE.

REAR PASSENGER TAIL LIGHT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A RIDICULOUS COST. EXTREMELY POOR ENGINEERING DESIGN. THAT IS IF IT WASN'T INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED TO FAIL. ON THE LOW END $5-600 TO REPLACE A TAIL LIGHT??? WHAT A JOKE. SAD THING IS I'M LUCKY, MANY MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD MORE THAN ONE LIGHT ASSEMBLY GO OUT. I'VE BOUGHT GM FOR MY LAST 3 VEHICLES (ENVOY, TAHOE, YUKON) THIS WILL LIKELY BE THE LAST TIME I EVER BUY GM.
