2015 GMC YUKON Complaints

DRIVING THE 2015 GMC YUKON, TRIED TO APPLY BRAKES, BRAKES WENT TO FLOOR AND NO BRAKING AVAILABLE. HAD TO JUMP A MEDIAN IN THE ROAD TO GET CAR STOPPED. CALLED DEALERSHIP, THEY WERE AWARE AND SAID DRIVE IT THERE, ALMOST WRECKED AGAIN PULLING INTO PARKING OT AT DEALERSHIP. YOU CANNOT DRIVE THE CAR LIKE THIS, VERY DANGEROUS. BEING TOLD ITS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT GMC KNOWS ABOUT BUT WILL ONLY FIX IF ITS 70,000 OR 6 YEARS. NOT OK, FIX THE PROBLEM MY CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY UNTIL 100,000 MILES! VACUUM PUMP, VACUUM PUMP BELT, BRAKE BOOSTER, MASTER CYLINDER AND VACUUM PIPE ALL NEED REPLACING!!!!!! MAKE A RECALL BEFORE MORE PEOPLE ARE HURT!!!!

BRAKES BECOME HARD TO PUSH WHEN GOING BELOW 5MPH AND DOESN'T WANT TO STOP WHEN PRESSED. SOMETIMES YOU PRESS BRAKES AND PUSH AS HARD AS YOU CAN AND IT JUST KEEPS MOVING UNTIL HE SLOWLY COMES TO A STOP. IT HAPPENS WHEN TRAVELING AT A LOW SPEED OR EVEN AT A STOP AND YOU NEED TO BARELY MOVE FORWARD OR BACKWARD. MAKES IT HARD TO PARK IN TIGHT SPACES, MOVE IN TRAFFIC, AND IN A DRIVE-THRU. IT WILL HAPPEN MOVING FORWARD OR BACKWARD - THAT DOESN'T MATTER IT ALSO HAPPENS WHEN YOU COME TO A STOP AND BARELY MOVE AGAIN AND NEED TO STOP - BRAKES BECOME HARD AND IT STOPS ON ITS OWN TIME. I EVEN HAD IT HAPPEN WHEN I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT ON DOWNWARD HILL AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME STARTED MOVING AND SUDDENLY STOPPED AGAIN AND MY CAR DIDN'T WANT TO STOP. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME SINCE AROUND NOV 2018. IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE

THE BRAKE LIGHTS WORK SOMETIMES AND THEN DON'T, THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE. IF THEY STOP WORKING WHILE DRIVING THIS COULD KILL ME OR ANOTHER DRIVER OR SOMEONES PASSENGER(S).

HAD AN ACCIDENT IN 2018 AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND WHEN TRIED TO STOP AND PUSHED ON MY BRAKE PEDAL, IT WAS LIKE IT FROZE AND I WAS STILL MOVING. I WAS DRIVING 37MPH ON A CITY STREET WHEN THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED.

ON REPEATED OCCASIONS (FROM 2015 TO 2019) I HAVE EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION AT LOW SPEEDS AND SUDDEN JERKING MOTIONS. THE TRANSMISSION AND SPEED CONTROLS ARE UNPREDICTABLE AND DANGEROUS. THIS IS HAZARDOUS AND MAY RESULT IN A LOSS OF CONTROL. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE BRAKES INCLUDING A STUCK CALIPER AT APPROXIMATELY 42,000 MILES. I REPORTED THESE ISSUES AND NUMEROUS OTHER ISSUES TO GMC CORPORATE, TUSTIN BUICK GMC ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT IT WAS A SOFTWARE ISSUE AND THINGS ARE SATISFACTORY AND SAFE. GMC CONTENDS THAT THE VEHICLE IS FINE AND DECLINES TO ASSIST WITH ISSUES. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE. THE DATE BELOW IS APPROXIMATE. THE MILEAGE IS APPROXIMATE ON ALL ENTRIES.

THE AC CONDENSER STOPPED WORKING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAS BEEN REPLACED. FIRST UNDER WARRANTY, SECOND IS NOT. IT IS FUNNY HOW EVERY PERSON AT DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT KNOWS THE CONDENSER IS A FAULTY PRODUCT, BIT GMC WON'T RECALL. EVEN NON GMC REPAIR SHOPS KNOW THIS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC YUKON. SHORTLY AFTER THE CONTACT PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE AND THE RADIO FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE DEALER (PENSKE BUICK GMC OF CERRITOS, 17720 CRUSADER AVE, CERRITOS, CA 90703, (877) 886-6265) REPLACED THE RADIO WITH A WARRANTY; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. ALSO, THE VENT CONTROLS FAILED FOR THE AIR CONDITIONER AND HEATER. WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AND A U TURN, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED SEVERAL TIMES. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT THEY SERVICED THE VEHICLE PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V586000 (STEERING) AND WAS AWARE THAT THE RECALL REMEDY FAILED. THE CONDITION PROGRESSED TO THE POINT THAT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE MULTIPLE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I PURCHASED A 2015 GMC YUKON AND AM THE SECOND OWNER. LAST WEEK, MY DRIVER'S SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WENT OUT. I NOTICED IT WHILE DRIVING WHEN SOMEONE BEHIND ME TOLD ME IT WAS OUT. SIX MONTHS AGO, I REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WHICH COST $875 TO FIX (THE ENTIRE LIGHT ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED, NOT JUST A BULB). A LITTLE RESEARCH ONLINE HAS PROVEN THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM FOR MANY OTHER GMC YUKON OWNERS. LED LIGHTS ARE SUPPOSED TO LAST THE LIFETIME OF THE VEHICLE, BUT IT WOULD APPEAR THAT SOMETHING ABOUT THE PRODUCT IS DEFECTIVE. THIS IS SIMPLY OUTRAGEOUS AND GMC KNOWS THAT IT IS A PROBLEM.

BRAKE LED LIGHTS GO OUT AND ON, SOMETIMES ONE SIDE WORKS, THEN OTHER TIMES THE OTHER SIDE GOES OUT, AND SOMETIMES BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK. SOMETIMES BY BANGING THE COVER, IT TURNS ON AND WORKS, BUT THEN THEY GO OUT.

REAR LIGHTS, TAIL LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. YOU CANT JUST CHANGE THE BULB. BEING LEDS THE WHOLE PIECE HAS TO BE CHANGED. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND GM KNOWS ABOUT IT, YET THERES BEEN NO RECALL??
