2016 GMC YUKON Complaints

10/1/2018 I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON THE 99 FREEWAY SOUTH BOUND IN LATHROP, CA AND OUT OF NOWHERE MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO OVERHEAT, THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE WAS TO THE VERY TOP, I WAS NOT ABLE TO DRIVE TO DRIVE TO A NEARBY GAS STATION, DUE TO THE VEHICLE LOST SPEED AND IT WOULD NOT LET ME ACCELERATE DURING THAT TIME THE ENGINE IDLE LIGHT CAME ON, SO I WAS FORCED TO PULL OVER ON A VERY NARROW SOFT SHOULDER, THEN IMMEDIATELY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND ALSO THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT. THERE WAS A LIGHT SMOKE A LOT OF NOISES COMING FROM THE ENGINE. EVERYTHING HAPPENS SO FAST IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING DUE TO THE HEAVY ONCOMING TRAFFIC PASSING ME BY. I HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOED TO STOCKTON FOR REPAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2016 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 TO 65 MPH, A TRACTOR TRAILER REAR ENDED THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. THE IMPACT CAUSED THE CONTACT TO REAR END THE PRECEDING VEHICLE AND PUSHED BOTH VEHICLES INTO THE RIGHT LANE. THE TWO VEHICLES CAME TO A STOP WHEN THEY ENTERED A DITCH. THE CONTACT'S HEAD STRUCK THE STEERING WHEEL. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT RECEIVED. THE AIR BAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO O'CONNOR AUTO PARK (199 RIVERSIDE DRIVE, AUGUSTA, MAINE 04330, (866) 483-3057), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED (REPORT NUMBER: 18S091850). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 GMC YUKON XL. WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING 65 MPH, WATER LEAKED FROM THE HEADLINER CONSOLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 62,000.

RADAR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE SMALLER CAR ON THE RIGHT LANE LEFT SIDE DOES NOT SEE A CAR WHEN CHANGING LANE WITH THE TURN SIGNAL ON. INTERSTATE. OFF RAMP SUNNY DAY HIGH SUN 09/05/2018

BOTH REAR TAIL LIGHTS HAVE FAILED UNDER 40,000 MILES. DEFECTIVE! PLEASE RECALL!!!

ON 9/25/18 WHILE APPLYING BRAKES THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME EXTREMELY HARD TO PRESS AND VERY HARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THANK GOD IT WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY THIS OCCURRED. MY SIGNIFICANT OTHER CAME HOME FROM WORK ON 9/27/18 AND CHANGED PADS, LUBED CALIPER SLIDERS, AND VERIFIED PROPER CALIPER OPERATION. SPENT 9/26/18 TALKING WITH THE DEALER AND CHECKING RECALLS. ALL THESE REPAIRS WERE SUGGESTED BY THE LOCAL DEALER, BY THEM OF COURSE. UPON TEST DRIVE AFTER NEW PADS WERE INSTALLED, THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED. DRIVING FORWARD THE BRAKES OPERATE AS THEY SHOULD OR AT LEAST FEEL NORMAL.

BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHTS ARE NOT FUNCTIONING AT ALL. BECAUSE IT IS AN LED LAMP, THE ENTIRE TAIL LAMPS ASSEMBLY REQUIRES REPLACEMENT AT A SIGNIFICANT COST.

THE REAR BRAKE LIGHT WORK INTERMITTENTLY. IT'S MOSTLY THE DRIVER'S SIDE BUT HE BOTH GO ON AND OFF WHEN I'M DRIVING AND PARKED. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS. I AM AFRAID I AM GOING TO GET REAR ENDED WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. I HAVE SEEN MANY VEHICLE JUST LIKE MINE WITH AT LEAST ONE BRAKE LIGHT OUT. WHEN HE LOOKED THIS UP ONLINE IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE. MY SISTER HAS THE EXACT SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL. SHE EXPERIENCED THE EXACT SAME BRAKE LIGHT ISSUES. SHE OPENED A CASE WITH GM AND THEY WORKED WITH HER TO COVER IT AND CHARGED HER THE DEDUCTIBLE. SHE WAS OVER THE 36K MILES GM CONSTANTLY REFERENCES. THIS IS SO UNSAFE. THE AIR ON THIS VEHICLE ALSO DOES LOT STAY COLD. IT TURNS WARM WHEN I SLOW DOWN.

PROGRESSIVE INTERMITTENT BRAKE LIGHT FUNCTIONALITY THAT EVENTUALLY CULMINATED WITH COMPLETE INOPERABILITY; ONLY THE RIGHT/LEFT BRAKE LIGHT ASSEMBLIES ARE AFFECTED; REVERSE LAMPS OPERATE; UPPER CENTER BRAKE LIGHT FUNCTIONS NORMALLY; THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH GMC BRAKE LIGHT ASSEMBLIES PER MULTIPLE FORUMS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING, THE TAIL LIGHTS ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT WAS ALERTED BY OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MOTOR CITY BUICK GMC (3101 PACHECO RD, BAKERSFIELD, CA 93313, (855) 393-2841) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TAIL LIGHTS FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,000.
