My wife and I purchased a new 2022 Yukon around July 4, 2022. The vehicle came with a 36k or 3 years warranty. Around October 2023, we experienced several safety concern issues with the SUV and around 11/01/23, we reported these issues to a GMC dealer. Around 11/01/23, we took our SUV for service at an approved GMC dealer and reported issues with the steering suspension such as a knocking, snapping, and cracking sound when making a turn, and a bumping when making a U-turn or left turn into a parking spot. We also reported issues with the parking and key sensors. We were informed the issue was fixed and that some suspension bolts were loosed and needed to be torqued. On 1/29/24, we took the SUV back for some of these same reasons after other dealers declined to take our SUV under warranty. Once more, the issue was temporarily fixed. We have now scheduled another appointment for these same reasons of knocking, cracking, and bumping when coming from the front suspension and when making a turn or U-turn. In addition, we are now experiencing oil warning lights for a second time as oil comsumption. We believe these are serious safety issues, especially with any potential failure of the suspension under rain, fog conditions, and the lack of resolution and wonder if other similar issues have been reported or experienced by similar drivers of these vehicles. Attached find copies of the work orders. Should you need any additional information, please advise. Thank you.

I was driving on the freeway with my family when the dashboard lights went off and the car started making a noise. The car then started shaking and I immediately pulled over. I was with my family and my children got scared. Previously to this the car had not shown any signs of problems. I had the car towed to the dealership. I received a call 2 days later from dealership stating my car needed a new engine. The car only has 42K miles and has had all oil changes.

Since purchase there has been a grinding noise when the vehicle is initially started up and put into reverse. I am worried that this is associated with the current engine recall that is on this vehicle. There is an increased risk associated with this vehicle as I am paralyzed and unable to exit the vehicle quickly, which is increased drastically when I have toddler and baby in vehicle. This risk comes from the reported 42 potential fires related to this recall in malfunctioning engines. There have been no warning lamps or indicators that have appeared to date.

On the morning of Thursday, [XXX], our 2022 Yukon Denali departed from West Richland, WA with the intent to arrive in Spokane, WA. After a short stop in Ritzville, WA around [XXX] local time, we entered the freeway ([XXX] to Spokane, WA) and attempted to pass a semi-truck. The vehicle got to approximately 60mph and then began to rev without any propulsion to increase speed. The vehicle shut off completely and stated that we were to put the car in neutral and attempt to restart. While going 50-60mph, we shifted into neutral and attempted to restart without any success. While the situation was extremely dangerous give the traffic (semi-truck on the right and an approaching vehicle directly behind us), we slowed the vehicle and maneuvered to the shoulder where we stopped the vehicle. The vehicle would not start so we leverage the OnStar system to call a tow truck. Unfortunately, there was no ride available being 1-2 miles outside of Ritzville, WA where transportation services do not exist. We requested the help of WA state troopers who picked up 7 of us (4 separate trips) on the side of the highway. The vehicle was towed to Spokane, WA and we were left to fend for ourselves to get to Spokane. The vehicle is in the shop and we are told based on the codes achieved that it is a full engine failure.

After only 47,000 the Yukon started with hard starts and triggering a check engine light. Owner suggested fuel issues, the dealership suggested a bad wire. They adjust the "bare wire", and mentioned that the fuel pumps on these vehicles have issues and they would order one- but give them a holler when we have additional problems. The Yukon continued to hard start, evolving into stalling when started. The dealership was alerted but due to lack of engine codes being stored the dealership couldn't help us. Eventually when driving 57mph, the Yukon cut engine on a busy route, driver was able to get the Yukon to the shoulder and attempted restart- the Yukon was dead. AAA attempted to battery jump the Yukon without success. We were without our Yukon for 8 weeks, being placed in random trucks that couldn't support our family size. Upstate Chevy of Attica was not help in the process. We did contact GM directly and received a case number 9-14907008493. The engine was replaced. The Yukon still doesn't seem to be 100%, with some slow to starts. We are asking for compensation toward another GM full size SUV. We are GM friends and family and have purchased several vehicles over the years. We'd like to trade our suv now for a new 2025 without engine issues- but since our Yukon was gutted, that is now noted on a carfax which devalues our trade.

Total valve body failure in the transmission at 30k miles. I was traveling with my daughter on the freeway at 65 mph and the vehicle went into limp mode. No indication of problems prior to this incident. Vehicle has been at dealer going on a month now. They have no valve bodies available, on a national backorder. They replace it with the valve body that is known to fail again. GM knows about this problem and the solution they offered was only a software upgrade so the back tires don't lock up when this happens. My daughter and I could have been seriously hurt or killed.
