2015 GMC YUKON Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED RECEIVED RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V586000 (STEERING) LAST WEEK FOR HER POWER STEERING. THE POWER STEERING DID NOT WORK WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO MOVE FROM A PARKED POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO DON SHETLER BUICK CHEVROLET (19400 CROWLEY EUNICE HWY, CROWLEY, LA 70526 (337) 514-4309) WHO THOUGHT THEY WOULD DO THE RECALL REPAIR BUT THEY FOUND OUT THAT THE POWER STEERING WAS DISCONNECTED. THEY DEALER CHARGED THE CONTACT FOR TWO HOURS OF LABOR SINCE THOSE REPAIRS WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE REPAIRS HAD BEEN COMPLETED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000.

BRAKE LIGHTS HAVE GONE OFF AND ON FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS BEFORE FINALLY GOING OUT. DEALERSHIP REFUSED THERE WAS A PROBLEM WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND NOW THE REPAIR WILL COST $1700

DRIVER SIDE LEFT BRAKE LIGHT LED POOR QUALITY, FAILED. TURN SIGNAL WORKS, BRAKE LIGHT DOESN'T. LEDS ARE SUPPOSED TO LAST LONGER THAN INCANDESCENT BULBS (AND AT THE EXPENSIVE PRICE OF $500+ TO FIX THIS EACH TIME IT GOES OUT PEOPLE WILL BE LESS APT TO FIX), BUT THIS IS APPARENTLY A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM FROM LOOKING INTO IT. THERE WAS NO CATALYST THAT SET THE PROBLEM OFF, JUST FAILED ON ITS OWN.

DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED THROUGH A DRIVE THROUGH AND MY BRAKES FAILED WHEN I TRIED TO STOP BEFORE PULLING OUT ONTO A CROSS STREET. PEDAL LOCKED, AND VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ROLL. AFTER STEPPING ON THE BRAKES A FEW TIMES THEY ENGAGED AGAIN. SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN I WAS LEAVING A PARKING LOT, ONLY THIS TIME THE BRAKES WOULD NOT ENGAGE AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. I COASTED INTO A POTTED DECORATIVE TREE THAT STOPPED ME, SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND BACK INTO DRIVE AND THEY BEGAN WORKING AGAIN. NO WARNING SIGNALS APPEARED ON DASH, AND BRAKES AND BRAKE FLUID HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND ALL ARE SATISFACTORY.

THE REAR LEFT LIGHT DOES NOT WORK CONSISTENTLY. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALER THE WHOLE LIGHT ASSEMBLY WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACE AT A COST OF $800. THE YUKON IS PASSED THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY BY A FEW MONTHS BUT BELOW THE 36000 MILES. THE EXTENDED WARRANTY DOESN'T COVER THE LIGHT ASSEMBLY EITHER. GO FIGURE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE REAR LED LIGHTS ON THIS GMC SUV ACCORDING TO NUMEROUS WEB SITES.

PURCHASED MY 2015 GMC YUKON IN JUNE 2017. WHEN I INITIALLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE EVERYTHING WAS FINE. AROUND MAY OR JUNE OF 2018 THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT WAS FILLED WITH CONDENSATION AND I WAS QUOTED $1462 FOR LABOR AND PARTS. MIND YOU THE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 50K MILES ON IT. I SENT A COMPLAINT TO THE CORPORATE OFFICE AND ENDED UP PAYING $860 DOLLARS TO HAVE IT FIXED. HERE IT IS NOW OCTOBER AND NOW BOTH THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE INTERMITTENTLY WORKING. I JUST TOOK THE TRUCK IN FOR A RECENT RECALL FOR A STEERING ISSUE. I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY THERE ARE SO MANY ISSUES RELATED TO THE LIGHTS. SO I WILL NOW HAVE TO PAY GET THE TAILLIGHTS FIXED. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER ISSUES NOT TESTED AND I AM CURRENTLY FLU AT THE POINT OF READING THIS VEHICLE IN.

DURING MANEUVER IN PARKING LOT TRYING TO TURN AROUND STEERING GOT EXTREMELY STIFF WHICH RESULTED IN ME RUNNING INTO SIDE WALK, RAMP. THE ONLY PART OF MY VEHICLE THAT WAS DAMAGE WAS THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT WHEEL. CURB RASH BEYOND REPAIR. AT THE TIME I WAS NOT AWARE OF VEHICLE RECALL AND DID NOT FILE AN ACCIDENT REPORT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED TWICE, ONCE WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT AND THE SECOND FAILURE WAS WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE BRAKE LIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOULEVARD BUICK GMC (2800 CHERRY AVE, SIGNAL HILL, CA 90755, (562) 492-1000) FOR BOTH FAILURES AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TAIL LIGHTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,000.

THE REAR RIGHT TAIL LIGHT DON'T WORK PROPERLY HAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM SOMETIMES WORK SOMETIME DON'T. DEALER TOLD ME CAN'T BE COVER UNDER WARRANTY, BECAUSE WAS EXPIRED. I'M AFRAID MAY BOTH TAIL LIGHT STOP WORKING AND GET REAR ENDED. GMC SHOULD DO SOMETHING, BECAUSE IS THEY PROBLEMS I SAW ON THOSE SUV

PASSENGERS SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WAS ONLY INTERMITTENTLY UNTIL IT QUIT ALL TOGETHER THEN THE DRIVERS SIDE DID THE SAME THING. I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER ABOUT IT LAST YEAR AND THEY STATED THEY WERE NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND THE COST TO REPLACE THEM WAS OVER $800 EACH.
