2016 GMC YUKON Complaints

I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND POWER OF THE CAR FOR OVER TWO YEARS. I HAVE CONTACTED GMC AND HAVE FOLLOWED EVERYTHING THAT GMC HAVE REQUESTED FOR ME TO DO WITH A VEHICLE. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO FOUR DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS, HAVE HAD EVERYTHING DONE WITH IT FROM FLUSHING IT THREE TO FOUR TIMES AND HAVE HAD TORQUE CONVERTER REPLACED THE CONTROL VALVE BODY REPLACE. RECALL FOR THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ALSO DONE. AFTER EVERYTHING THE CAR IS IN WORST CONDITION AT THE MOMENT.

AFTER LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP WHEN GETTING THE BRAKE RECALL UPDATED WITHIN 48HRS MY TRANSMISSION STARTS SHUDDERING! NEVER HAD A SINGLE PROBLEM UNTIL THE RECALL WAS UPDATED! WAS TOLD THERE IS ONLY A FLUID FLUSHING AVAILABLE FOR THE 8CYL TRANSMISSION NOT THE 6CYL! WAS TOLD THAT I WAS OUT OF MY POWER TRAIN AT 82K MILES AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO FIX THE TOURQUE CONVERTER OR BY A NEW TRANSMISSION! PLUS WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TILL AFTER JANUARY 2020 BECAUSE THEY ARE BACKED UP FROM OTHER VEHICLES HAVING THE SAME ISSUES! THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR THE 8CYL BUT NOTHING FOR THE 6! WHY? I LOVE MY CAR AND YOU WOULD THINK AT 70K IT WOULD BE MORE RELIABLE AND GM WOULD BACK THEIR PRODUCT! I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE MAKERS OF GM AND WITH THE ISSUES I'M LOOKING AT WITH NO RELIEF IN SIGHT I WOULD BE BETTER OFF TRADING FOR A FORD OR ANYTHING OTHER THAN GM! I'M REALLY HOPING THAT IS NOT THE CASE AND GM WILL OFFER A FIX FOR THESE ISSUES!

WENT TO USE AIR CONDITIONING AND IT WOULD ONLY BLOW HOT AIR. AFTER CHECKING ONLINE, AND WITH EXPERIENCES FROM OTHER OWNERS, THE AIR CONDITIONING FAILURES APPEARS TO BE A VERY COSTLY COMMON ISSUE BUT THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR THE DEFECTIVE PARTS.
