2015 GMC YUKON XL Complaints

BOTH LED BRAKE LIGHTS FAULTY. REPLACED RH AND NEW PART IS ALSO NOT WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. LH DOES NOT INTERMITTENTLY.

BRAKE LIGHTS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. THE PROBLEM IS NOT WITH THE LED BUT WITH THE POOR QUALITY OF THE CONTROLLER BOARD. BOTH OF MY TAIL LIGHTS HAVE ENCOUNTERED THIS ISSUE IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS AND THEY ARE VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE. THE PART ALONE IS OVER $ 900.00. I HAVE TALKED TO A COUPLE OF DEALERS ABOUT THIS AND THEY ARE A FREQUENT PROBLEM, AND ONE DEALER SPECIFIED THAT HE HAS SOLD 4 REPLACEMENT UNITS IN THE LAST 24 HOURS. THIS INDICATES THAT THE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY IS VERY POOR QUALITY AND CAN BE A SAFETY HAZARD AS THERE IS NO WAY TO TELL THAT YOUR BRAKE LIGHT ISN'T WORKING UNLESS SOMEONE TELLS YOU.

ISSUES WITH BACK LED TAIL LAMPS NOT WORKING. I HAVE SEEN MANY ISSUES WITH PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.

MY DRIVERS SIDE TAIL LIGHT JUST WORKS INTERMITTENTLY WHEN I AM OUT ON THE ROAD DRIVING.

MY RIGHT REAR TAIL LIGHT WORKS ON AND OFF FOR ABOUT A YEAR . I HAVE 41,000 MILES ON MY CAR AND NOW THE LEFT TAIL LIGHT GOES IN AND OUT ALSO SO I POTENTIALLY COULD HAVE TWO BRAKE LIGHTS OUT AT THE SAME TIME. I'VE SEEN SEVERAL OF THE SAME CAR IS ON THE ROAD WITH THE SAME PROBLEM GMC DENIES THE PROBLEM AND CHARGES $800 PER TAIL LIGHT TO FIX IT'S A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND I DON'T FEEL LIKE MY FAMILY IS SAFE AND I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD BE LIABLE FOR THEIR FAULTY LIGHT EQUIPMENT. THEY WON'T RECOGNIZE THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ISSUE IT'S COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. WHEN LOOKING UP THE PROBLEM ONLINE THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME MODEL CAR.

LED TAILLIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS WORK INTERMITTENTLY ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSANGER SIDE. PROBLEM HAS BEEN LONG TERM AND APPEARS TO BE FAILING MORE FREQUENTLY NOW.

FRONT RIGHT LED DAYLIGHT LIGHT IS OUT. CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY, AND PART IS APPROXIMATELY $750 TO REPLACE, VICE JUST A BULB SWAP. CAR HAS ABOUT 90K MILES ON IT. LED DAYLIGHT IS NOT ABLE TO BE REPAIRED. I BELIEVE IT'S REFERRED TO AS DRL. DEALERSHIP WILL NOT REPLACE IN WARRANTY, BECAUSE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY - AND REPLACEMENT FOR A LIGHT IS OVER $700....ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE AND UNSUSTAINABLE. ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS MODEL IS A 2015 MODEL. OVER THE LIFE OF THIS VEHICLE, HOW MANY TIMES AM I EXPECTED TO REPLACE A $750 LED HOUSING?

MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FILLED WITH GMC ABOUT THEIR POOR BRAKE DESIGN ON THEIR 2015- 2019 YUKONS THE CIRCUIT BREAKS AND THE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY QUITS WORKING. YUKON SAYS THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF SUCH COMPLAINTS. AND WILL NOT RECALL THEIR POOR ASSEMBLY DESIGN.

BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED WITHIN DAYS OF EACH OTHER. THE FAILURE WAS THE SAME AS INDICATED HERE: HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T53845_DS768963 . I HAVE PICTURES OF THE FAILED PIECE.

BAD LED BRAKE LIGHTS: WE PURCHASED OUR GMC YUKON XL 2015 IN MAY 2016. SINCE THEN WE HAVE HAD TO REPLACE BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS(1 AFTER A YEAR-MARCH 2017 AND THE 2ND AFTER 2 YEARS-AUG 2018) AND HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE ONLY 2 YEARS. THEY ARE LED LIGHTS SO NOT A CHEAP REPAIR. QUOTED COST $750-$2000. SO FAR, OUR WARRANTY HAS COVERED THE REPAIRS BUT ONCE WARRANTY IS OFF, IT WILL COST TOO MUCH TO REPAIR AND IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE WITHOUT REPAIRING! WE HAVE HAD MANY VEHICLES OVER THE YEARS AND HAVE ONLY REPLACED BRAKE LIGHTS 2-3 TIMES AND FOR LESS THAN $25 EACH TIME. THIS APPEARS TO BE A BAD DESIGN OR FAULTY PARTS BY GMC. ONE OF THE FAILURES WAS DUE TO INTERNAL SHORT IN THE LED MODULE. WE WOULD LIKE GMC TO RESOLVE THE FAULTY PARTS AND RECALL THE PART AND FULLY REPLACE OUR BRAKE LIGHTS WITH RELIABLE LIGHTS VS LIGHTS THAT ONLY LAST A YEAR. THANK YOU!
