2015 GMC YUKON Complaints

PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT OUT. I SEE THERE ARE OVER 100 COMPLAINTS, AND NO RECALL. COME ON GMC, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD.

REPLACED PASSENGER TAIL LIGHT DUE TO LED FAILURE IN 2017. DRIVER'S SIDE FAILED THIS WEEK. FULL REPLACEMENT OF HOUSING IS REQUIRED, AND NOTHING THAT I CAN FIND STATES ANY DESIGN IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO DATE. THIS MEANS FURTHER REPLACEMENTS OF THE ENTIRE LIGHT (PART ALONE IS QUOTED AT AROUND $700) WILL BE NECESSARY THROUGHOUT THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. IT APPEARS FROM A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH THAT THERE ARE A LARGE NUMBER OF VEHICLES EFFECTED, YET THE DEALER CLAIMS THERE IS NOT A DESIGN ISSUE AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. GIVEN THIS FAILURE MAKES THE TAIL LIGHT INOPERABLE AS WELL AS THE BRAKE LIGHTS, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

PART OF THE CIRCUIT BOARD IN THE TAIL LIGHTS WAS VERY POORLY DESIGNED. IT IS A SEALED ASSEMBLY WITHOUT SERVICEABLE PARTS. A VERY THIN STRIP OF METAL, ONE AT THE TOP, AND ONE AT THE BOTTOM BREAK DUE TO THERMAL EXPANSION AND CONTRACTION. IT GIVES NO WARNING NO LIGHTS NOTHING JUST ALL THE SUDDEN NO TAIL OR BRAKE LIGHT. IT'S NOT RIGHT IT ISN'T SERVICEABLE, AND THE DEALERSHIP CHARGES $400 PLUS FOR A NEW ONE. WHAT HAPPENS IF BOTH FAIL AT THE SAME TIME. G.M. NEEDS TO BE HELD LIABLE, AND DO THE RIGHT THING. AFTER ALL THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE "PROFESSIONAL GRADE".

DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT STOPPED WORKING ON 2015 YUKON W 65K MILES AND NO ACCIDENTS. DEALER SAID IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE AND PART IS $800 TO REPAIR DUE TO LED ASSEMBLY. GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE OFFERED A $100 VOUCHER TO GO TOWARDS NEW PART (IF I TOOK MY CAR IN AND PAID FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST) WHICH IS A JOKE. AS OF TODAY THERE ARE 278 COMPLAINTS REGARDING 2015 YUKONS AND 60% OF THOSE ARE REGARDING EXTERIOR LIGHTING. HOWEVER GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE WOULD NOT ADMIT FAULTY TAIL LIGHTS WERE A "KNOWN ISSUE." WHY ISN'T THIS A RECALL?! AND WHY ARE CONSUMERS STILL BE CHARGED $800 FOR FAULTY TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLIES? GMC IS PROFITING OFF OF KNOWN WIDE-SPREAD ISSUES AND NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. THE BRAKE LIGHT IS ON BACKORDER DUE TO THE SHEER NUMBER OF OTHERS EXPERIENCING THIS SAME ISSUE. MY CAR HAS HAD SHOCKS REPLACED AT 15K MILES, ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH INTERIOR LIGHTS, AC PROBLEMS, AND NOW THIS ALL BEFORE 70K. COME ON GMC....STEP IT UP OR ELSE I'LL BE TRADING MY POS YUKON IN FOR A CHEVY.

THE TAIL LIGHT FAILED WITH NO PHYSICAL DAMAGE. L.E.D. FAILURE NO TAIL LIGHT OR BRAKE LIGHT. BULBS ARE NOT REPLACEABLE & THE WHOLE TAIL LIGHT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED

TAKATA RECALL: I WAS INFORMED TODAY BY ANOTHER DRIVER THAT BOTH OF MY REAR BREAK LIGHTS ARE OUT, AND I CHECKED AND DONT HAVE ANY REAR BREAK LIGHTS ONLY THE STRIP LIGHT UP TOP WORKS. I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND HAVE ONLY EVER DRIVER ON CITY STREETS OR HIGHWAYS. THIS IS SOME BULL CRAP CONSIDERING THE PRICE OF THESE VEHICLES AND NEED A RECALL FOR THE REAR BREAK LIGHTS, BECAUSE THEY ARE $800.00 TO REPLACE EACH BREAK LIGHT.

TAIL/BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED CAUSING A SAFETY CONCERN. TOOK VEHICLE IN TO GMC DEALER FOR REPAIR. LEFT TAIL LIGHT (ACTUALLY THE ENTIRE PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD) WAS REPLACED, RIGHT IS ON BACK ORDER. VEHICLE OUT OF FACTORY WARRANTY AND EVEN THOUGH WE HAD AN EXTENDED BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY, THE WORK WAS NOT COVERED. THIS IS A FREQUENT ISSUE, I HAVE DISCOVERED ON LINE, ACCORDING TO MANY OWNERS OF GMC SUVS AND TRUCKS BETWEEN THE 2015 AND 2018 MODELS. COST OF REPAIR INCLUDING BOTH TAIL LIGHTS IS 1617.05. GMC SUPPORTED ME BY COVERING 600.00 OF THE COST SO I PAID 1017.05 OUT OF POCKET FOR 2 TAIL LIGHTS THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED. I HAVE ONLY 24554 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND HAVE NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT. ADDITIONAL TO THAT, THE 2 FRONT SEAT BELTS ARE FRAYING WHICH MAY LEAD TO WEAKNESS EVENTUALLY CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE. I WANT GMC TO COVER ALL COSTS RELATED TO REPAIR OF THESE TWO PROBLEMS. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL REGARDING BOTH. SEAT BELT PROBLEM HAS BEEN ON GOING FOR MONTHS AND THE TAIL LIGHT THING JUST HAPPENED ON MONDAY, JUNE 17, 2019.

THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS OF MY VEHICLE WENT OUT IN JULY OF 2017 BOTH OF THEM WITHIN A WEEK, DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. I HAD THE WHOLE LIGHT PANEL REPLACED UNDER THE WARRANTY ON EACH OF THEM AND NOW AGAIN MY PASSENGER-SIDE BRAKE LIGHT HAS GONE OUT. IT CAME BACK ON MOMENTARILY IN THE MORNING AND THEN WENT OUT AGAIN. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND FOUND THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM ANDA FRIEND OF MINE CURRENTLY HAS ONE OUT ON HER 2017 YUKON WHICH SHE IS TAKING IN TO GET FIXED. SPEAKING WITH THE SERVICE ADVISORS AT THE DEALERSHIP THEY INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM BUT NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR IT. AS OF TODAY THE PART IS ALSO ON BACKORDER AND THEY DO NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WILL GET THE PART IN. SO IN THE MEANTIME I AM WITHOUT A BRAKE LIGHT.

LEFT REAR BRAKE LIGHT FIXTURE (LED STYLE) COMPLETELY FAILED AFTER 54,000 MILES. IT'S NOT THE LEDS THEMSELVES. SOMETHING ELSE IN THE POWER SUPPLY FAILED.

BOTH OF THE VEHICLE TAIL LIGHTS HAVE BECOME NONOPERATIONAL DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK. THE TAIL LIGHTS ARE A COMPLETE ASSEMBLES AND CONSIST OF LEDS.
