2015 GMC YUKON DENALI Complaints

WAS DRIVING ABOUT 7-10 MPH IN A WAL MART PARKING LOT WHEN THE STEERING ON MY 2015 GMC YUKON DENALI COMPLETELY GAVE OUT WHICH CAUSED ME TO SCRAP A POLE ON THE BACK DOOR BEHIND DRIVER. FINALLY WHEN VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD FREELY SPIN AND NOT IN GAUGE THE TIRES TO ROTATE. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST GMC DEAR SHIP TO HAVE THEM ASSES THE PROBLEM AND TOLD THEM THIS HAS TO BE FROM THE ROOT CAUSE OF A RECALL THAT A SENSOR WILL LOSE TEMP CONNECTION WITH STEERING AND MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. WHICH DID AS WELL AS INJURY TO MY WIFE WHO WAS DRIVING. NOW THE VEHICLE IS AT THE GMC DEALERSHIP GIVING ME A RUN A ROUND THAT THE STEERING COLUMN MAGICALLY SNAPPED AND NEEDS TO BE COVERED THROUGH EXTENDED WARRANTY. I HAVE AN OPEN COMPLAINT WITH THE DEALERSHIP AS WELL AS GMC IT SELF. PLEASE IF YOU OWN THIS YEAR VEHICLE BE VERY CAREFUL THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A REALLY HORRIBLE SITUATION.

TAIL LIGHTS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. SOME TIMES THEY ARE WORKING FINE, AND THEN FOR SOME REASON ONE OR BOTH WILL SHUT OFF AT DIFFERENT TIMES FOR NO APPARENT REASON.

DRIVERS AND PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHT GO OUT INTERMITTENTLY. PASSENGER STAYS OFF FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME. LOOKED INTO REPLACING NO IDEA IF IT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. COST AT LEAST $500. EACH PARTS ONLY. I HAVE SEEN SO MANY OTHER VEHICLES LIKE MINE SAME PROBLEM. HEADLIGHTS ALSO GOING OUT, WATER INSIDE OF COVER. LED AND TURN SIGNAL WENT OUT ON DRIVERS SIDE REPLACED FOR A COST OF $900.00, (JUST FOR THE HEADLIGHT) AGAIN NO GUARANTEE IT WILL KEEP WORKING. ALSO BATTERY WENT DEAD REPLACED BATTERY. NEW BATTERY ALSO WENT DEAD. CAR ALARM WENT OFF THE NIGHT BEFORE BATTERY DEAD IN THE MORNING. HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 3 WEEKS NOW. SAME THING HAPPENS ALARM GOES OFF KILLS BATTERY. SHOWS MASSIVE DRAIN AND SET ABOUT 32 CODES. THE DRAIN DOESN'T REGISTER AFTER THAT. RECHARGE BATTERY CAR IS NOT RUNNING WHEN THIS HAPPENS. PROBLEM REPEATS EVERY TIME AFTER CHARGING THE BATTERY. SOMETHING IN THE WIRING IS SHORTING OUT. TESTED BOTH BATTERIES THEY BOTH TEST GOOD. AFRAID OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT WITH THE ELECTRICAL ON THE VEHICLE. NOT SURE IF THE LIGHTS HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS OR NOT. WHEN ORDERING HEADLIGHT AND ASKING ABOUT BRAKES TOLD BY DEALER PARTS THEY SURE ARE SELLING A BUNCH OF THESE. I HAVE HAD PEOPLE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD STOP ME TO TELL ME MY BRAKE LIGHT IS OUT. I DID NOT KNOW THAT THE TURN SIGNAL ON THE FRONT WAS NOT WORKING UNTIL A CAR PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME WHILE WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. I GOT OUT AND LOOKED AT THE LIGHT AND IT WAS NOT WORKING. I CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT ALL BECAUSE IT KEEPS DRAINING THE BATTERY. I HAVE A ASE CERTIFIED MASTER TECHNICIAN WORKING ON THE VEHICLE IN A REPUTABLE SHOP.

2015 GMC YUKON DENALI, BREAK LIGHT MALFUNCTION, DRIVING, PARKED WITH NO INDICATION WHEN IT WILL WORK OR NOT. DEALERSHIP AND GMC SERVICE CENTER CLAIMED THERE WERE NO OR VERY FEW COMPLAINTS HOWEVER I HAVE FOUND HUNDREDS ALREADY. THEY REFUSED TO EVEN LOOK AT THE LIGHT STATING I CAN GET IT REPLACED FOR AROUND $775 BECAUSE THEY CANNOT CHANGE BULBS ON THAT TYPE OF TAIL LIGHT. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS NEW FEATURE STARTING WITH MY YEAR MODEL AND SINCE GMC WENT WITH ENCASED LED LIGHTS THEY NO LONGER CAN FIX THEM UNDER WARRANTY. THIS WAS NEVER DISCLOSED ANYWHERE AND GMC DOES NOT STATE THAT ANYWHERE I COULD FIND AND WILL NOT COVER IT UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH IT IS OBVIOUSLY A WIRING ISSUE SINCE THE LIGHT DOES WORK SOMETIMES. I ALSO HAD PROOF WITH PICTURES THAT THE TAIL LIGHT DOES WORK SOMETIMES BUT NOT CONSTANTLY AND THE DEALER REFERRED ME TO GMC SERVICE CENTER. THE GMC SERVICE CENTER BASICALLY EXPLAINED THE SAME THING, THAT THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF COMPLAINTS AND THOSE WOULD NOT BE COVERED BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS ACTUALLY BROKE OR OUT, AND THAT IS NOT COVERED. THEY ACTUALLY SUGGESTED I GO BACK TO THE PURCHASING DEALERSHIP WHICH IS THE ONE THAT SENT ME TO THEM, JUST GOT THE GO AROUND WITH NO ACTION. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE IF THE LIGHTS STOP WORKING SUDDENLY, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE WHOLE LIGHT GOES BLACK. NOW I CANNOT GET MY VEHICLE REGISTERED DUE TO THE LIGHT AND WILL NEED TO FIX OR REPLACE A FACTORY ISSUE WITH THE LIGHT JUST TO GET MY VEHICLE INSPECTED AND REGISTERED.

VEHICLE CLUNKS OR HARD SHIFT WHILE SHIFTING VEHICLE FROM PARK TO DRIVE, OR PARK TO REVERSE. HAPPENS EVERY MORNING OR WHILE TRANSMISSION HAS COOLED DOWN. DEALER INDICATES THERE'S NO FIX FOR THIS CONDITION, NOT EVEN A UPDATE TO TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE.

I GIVE!!! NOW BREAK LIGHTS NOT WORKING!!! RIGHT BREAK LIGHT IS OUT AND LEFT DRIVER IS INTERMITTENT. VEHICLE HAS 37K ON IT AND WAS JUST PICKED UP FROM THE DEALER AFTER HAVING 1 OF MANY ISSUES THROUGH THE PAST YEAR RECTIFIED AND NOW THIS! THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD AND COULD TREMENDOUSLY INJURE SOMEONE. RIGHT NOW MY CAR CANNOT EVEN PASS INSPECTION DUE TO THE FAULTY EQUIPMENT INSTALLED BY THE MANUFACTURE THAT IS A DANGER TO MY SAFETY. I HAVE OWNED MANY GMC'S (6 TOTAL) THROUGH THE YEARS AND THIS BEING THE WORST!! THE LATEST, I HAVE HAD THE TORQUE CONVERTER REPLACED IN AUG 18 - DUE TO SHUDDERING AND VIBRATION. THEN THE STEERING COLUMN REPLACED DUE TO POPPING , BACK HATCH HINGE REPLACED DUE TO POPPING AND MALFUNCTION, BACK GLASS DOOR RUBBER GASKET REPLACED DUE TO LEAKING, SHARKFIN ANTENNA REPLACED DUE TO LEAKING, SUNROOF GASKET REPLACED DUE TO LEAKING, NEW TIRES AT 500 MILES DUE TO EXCESSIVE VIBRATION. BACK DOOR ADJUSTED DUE TO SLAMMING, AND ADDITIONAL SLIGHT ISSUES. THE RADIO HAS A CONSTANT GLITCH ON THE SCREEN SINCE DAY ONE THAT AFTER BEING TAKEN IN NUMEROUS TIMES, OF COURSE THE DEALER CANNOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND KEEPS PERFORMING A FLASH UPDATE WHICH NEVER HELPS AND AS SOON AS I DRIVE OFF IT GLITCHES AGAIN. I HAVE CONTACTED GM REGARDING THE BRAKE LIGHTS, RADIO, AND NOW MY PASSENGER STEP IS MALFUNCTIONING NOT TO MENTION A RECALL WAS JUST RELEASED ON THE POWER STEERING. WILL THE REPAIRS EVER END? GUESS ONCE I TRADE IT IN ON ANOTHER MANUFACTURE AS THIS WILL MOST LIKELY BE THE LAST GMC I WILL EVER PURCHASE!! I DO NOT HAVE TIME TO LIVE MY LIFE AT THE DEALER FOR A HIGH END PURCHASE THAT IS THE WORST MISTAKE EVER!! NOT TO MENTION BEING A SAFETY HAZARD!!!

REAR LEFT TAIL LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT WORK INTERMITTENTLY. YET STARTED HAPPENING AND CAR WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION IN THE STATE OF VA. WHEN NOTICED THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, BUT HAVE ALSO SEEN WHILE DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC YUKON DENALI XL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EMITTED AN ABNORMAL FUEL ODOR. UPON INSPECTION, THE CONTACT OBSERVED A PUDDLE OF FUEL ON THE GROUND. THE CONTACT ALSO NOTICED THAT THE FUEL TANK AND FUEL LINE DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH SPACE IN BETWEEN THEM, WHICH CAUSED A HOLE TO DEVELOP IN THE FUEL LINE. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000. **TR CONSUMER STATED FUEL WAS LEAKING FROM PRESSURE LINE TO ENGINE ABOVE FUEL TANK. WHEN TANK WAS REMOVED THE FUEL LINE HAD RUBBED A HOLE IN ITSELF FROM THE WHERE IT CLIPS INTO THE TANK. THE LINE HAD PUSHED OUT ALMOST 2 GALLON OF FUEL IN LESS THEN 10 MINUTES OF IDLING TIME IN MY GARAGE. UPDATE 11/1/18*JB

RIGHT SIDE LED BRAKE LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING. IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRICAL TRACES IN SIDE THE SEALED LIGHT. REPLACEMENT IS $600!

THE REAR LED BRAKE TAIL LIGHT STOPPED WORKING DUE TO A CRACK IN THE CONDUCTIVE PLATE INSIDE THE ASSEMBLY.
