2015 GMC YUKON XL Complaints

I PURCHASED OUR 2015 GMC YUKON XL IN OCTOBER OF 2014. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH NOISE COMING FROM THE TIRES FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE AND HAD MANY PARTS REPLACED ONLY FOR THE NOISE TO COME RIGHT BACK. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES AND ALL THE TIRES ARE WEARING TO THE POINT THAT BELTS ARE NOW SHOWING. WHEN TALKING TO CONTINENTAL THESE FACTORY TIRES HAVE AN 80,000 MILE WARRANTY BUT THAT TIRE WEAR WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER FACTORY TIRES. AFTER CALLING GMC, CONTINENTAL AND MY LOCAL DEALER, I FINALLY WAS TOLD THEY WOULD GIVE ME $250 TOWARD NEW TIRES BUT I COULD ONLY USE THAT TOWARD THE PURCHASE OF CONTINENTAL TIRES. RECENTLY THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SAME TIRES THAT ARE ON MY VEHICLE FOR ALL THE PROBLEMS I HAVE BEEN HAVING. WHEN I CALLED CONTINENTAL, I WAS TOLD THAT MY TIRES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. HOW CAN I HAVE THE EXACT SAME ISSUES THAT ARE DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL BUT THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT BECAUSE MY DOT IS NOT IN THE 1 MONTH RECALL. I HAVE NOW HAD TO SPEND $1000 TO PURCHASE NEW TIRES FOR A VEHICLE THAT HAS ONLY 40,000 MILES ON IT AND COST $70,000 TO PURCHASE 2 YEARS AGO. *TR

THREAD OF THE LEFT BACK TIRE FLOWERED UP AND IT POPPED WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT ON A FLAT. A COLLISION ALMOST TOOK PLACE, MY HUSBAND WAS ALMOST SMASHED BETWEEN THE CONCRETE WALL AND THE TRUCK WHILE TRYING TO CHECK THE TIRE, ON STAR RESPONSE WAS GOING TO TAKE 1HR 45 MIN. AFTER GETTING TO A SAFE PLACE WE CHECKED THE OTHER 3 TIRES AND NOTICE THE RIGHT REAR TIRE PRESENTED MISSING PART OF THE TIRE WALL AS A PUZZLE PIECE MISSING, TIRES HAD EXACTLY 30K MILES WITH THIS TRIP. TIRES ARE CONTINENTAL P275-55R20-111S WE TOLD THE DEALER TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE. *TR

I PURCHASED A NEW, 2015 GMC YUKON XL IN DECEMBER OF 2014. I HAD BEEN DEALING WITH A VIBRATION RELATED PROBLEM AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS STARTING IN OCTOBER OF 2015 IN MY SUV THAT THE DEALER BALANCED, ALIGNED, ETC. PROBLEM STILL EXISTED IN DECEMBER OF 2015, AGAIN RAN TESTS AND FOUND NOTHING. CONTINUED TO COMPLAIN EVERY TIME I WENT INTO DEALER AND ON JUNE 28, 2016 AND WAS TOLD MY TREAD WAS WEARING UNEVENLY, AND AFTER A ROAD TEST WITH THE HEAD TECHNICIAN IT WAS FOUND THERE WAS HIGH ROAD FORCE ON THE TIRES. TODAY I CAME IN FOR MY OIL CHANGE AND MY DEALER HAD AN ALERT TO CHECK MY TIRES (ORIGINAL ONES THAT I REPLACED AT MY COST ON 6/28/16) FOR THE EXACT TIRE ON MY TRUCK GIVING ME THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE A HIGH SPEED VIBRATION AND TREAD WEAR PROBLEMS. MY OLD TIRES WERE OUTSIDE OF THE RECALL BUT I FEEL THAT THEY WERE DEFECTIVE. MY DOT# WAS A32AWBDE2414 AND I HAD TO REPLACE ALL 4 TIRES. GM PAID PARTIAL WARRANTY ON THEM. MY COST WAS $519.45. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC YUKON XL. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. AFTER TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 64,712.

A/C WON'T GET COLD! ONE OF MANY PROBLEMS I HAVE HAD WITH THIS BRAND NEW TRUCK THAT IS A YEAR OLD! TV'S HAVE HAD PROBLEMS, TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, GIVING IT GAS WAS ALSO A PROBLEM! I HAVE JUST HIT 40,000 ON THE TRUCK AND THEY WANT TO TELL ME IT NOT UNDER WARRANTY! A/C SHOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM YET! NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS OUT THIS TRUCK! CAN SOMEONE HELP ME? A DISAPPOINTED TRUCK OWNER!

MY 2015 GMC YUKON XL WITH 5000 MILES EXHIBITS A BUFFETING / PRESSURE SENSATION THAT CAN BE FELT PREDOMINATELY IN THE EARS BETWEEN 30 AND 70 MPH WHEN ONLY THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOWS ARE DOWN . AFTER A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME IT BEGINS TO CAUSE DIZZINESS, EAR PAIN, AND HEADACHES. SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG AND MUST BE FIXED

ON THE DAY I TEST DROVE MY YUKON MY HUSBAND AND I NOTICED A VIBRATION IN THE VEHICLE. WHEN WE RETURNED TO DEALER NOTICED ONE OF THE RIMS WAS DIFFERENT THAN THE OTHER THREE SO WE ALL BELIEVED IT WAS THE CAUSE. WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE HANDLED. SO WE CAME BACK TO PICKUP AND THAT'S WHERE IT ALL BEGAN. THIS VEHICLE HAS SEVERE REVERBERATION AND VIBRATIONS. REVERBERATION CAUSES SEVERE HEADACHES AND NAUSEA. MY DRIVING LEG GOES NUMB FROM THE VIBRATION THAT COMES THRU THE GAS PEDAL. SO UNSAFE. SEVERE TUNNELING VIBRATION THEY HAVE DONE THE TIRES NOT THE PROBLEM. REPOSITIONED UPPER AND LOWER REAR CONTROL ARMS TO CHANGE PINION ANGLE &CHECKED AND ADJUSTED TRANSMISSION CROSS MEMBER AND MOUNT. PICKED IT UP IMMEDIATELY NOTICED NOTHING HAD CHANGED. WHEN RIGHT BACK TO DEALER AND SERVICE MANAGER DROVE WITH ME. HE ALSO AGREED THAT IT WASN'T FIXED. BROUGHT BACK AGAIN. AFTER DOING ANOTHER SERIES OF THINGS GMC REP DROVE VEHICLE AND SAID THAT PICO SCORES FALL UNDER SPECS. OFFERED ME A ADDITIONAL 2YR/24000 MILE WARRANTY. HAHA I TRADE EVERY THREE YEARS AND PUT 6000 MILES PER YEAR ON MY SUV. SO ON 1/28/16 THE PICO SCORE WAS 20 BEFORE THE REPAIRS CLAIMED THEY GOT IT DOWN TO 5. PICKED IT UP BROUGHT IT BACK TO DEALER 2/3 (I'VE PUT 45 MILES ON BETWEEN SERVICES) TAKE IT BACK OUT ON ROAD PICO BACK AT 20 DID MORE STUFF GOT IT BACK DOWN TO 6. SO GM REP SAYS IT'S WITHIN GM SPECS?? THIS IS CRAZY. JUST TOOK DISABLED HUSBAND TO DR AND HE COULD HARDLY MAKE IT HOME IN THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS A SEVERE HEALTH CONCERN. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT AND KILL SOMEONE BEFORE THIS IS ADDRESSED. I HAVE ACTUALLY STUMBLED AFTER GETTING OUT OF THIS VEHICLE DUE TO THE REVERBERATION AND MY EQUILIBRIUM BEING OFF BECAUSE OF IT. I HAD WKED FOR A GM DEALER FOR 25 YEARS THAT'S WHEN THEY USED TO TAKE CARE.OF THERE CUSTOMERS. I HAVE DRIVEN AND OWNED 20 SUBURBAN & YUKONS I HAVE NEVER HAD ONE LIKE THIS. CONCLUSION: NOT FIXED

WITH ALL WINDOWS UP, VEHICLE EXHIBITS A BUFFETING / PRESSURE SENSATION THAT CAN BE FELT PREDOMINATELY IN THE EARS BETWEEN 30 AND 50 MPH. SIMILAR TO WHEN ONLY THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOWS ARE DOWN IN MANY VEHICLES. I SECOND THE FACT THAT AFTER ANY AMOUNT OF TIME AT THESE SUSTAINED SPEEDS IT BEGINS TO CAUSE DIZZINESS, EAR PAIN, AND HEADACHES. GM FORUMS ARE FLOODED WITH COMPLAINTS. THIS VEHICLE OBVIOUSLY WAS MANUFACTURED WITH A SIGNIFICANT, KNOWN FLAW THAT THEY CANNOT CURRENTLY FIX. THIS SHOULD ABSOLUTELY BE A SAFETY ISSUE STRICTLY BASED UPON THE PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS ONSET BY THE FEELING WITHIN THE VEHICLE.

HORRIBLE CABIN PRESSURE AND BUFFETING ABOVE SPEEDS OF 40MPH. PASSENGERS HAVE COMPLAINED OF HEADACHES, DIZZINESS, EARS POPPING, ETC. OCCURS WITH ALL WINDOWS AND SUNROOF CLOSED. DURING LONG PERIODS IT CAN SOMETIMES CREATE NAUSEA AND SICK FEELING EVEN HOURS AFTER EXITING TRUCK.

VEHICLE EXHIBITS A "BUFFETTING" OR PRESSURE SENSATION THAT CAN BE FELT PRIMARILY IN THE EARS BETWEEN 40 AND 50 MPH. AFTER ANY AMOUNT OF TIME AT THESE SUSTAINED SPEEDS IT BEGINS TO CAUSE DIZZINESS, EAR PAIN, AND HEADACHES. THIS CONDITION WAS CONFIRMED BY THE DEALER WITH 3 SEPARATE DRIVERS INCLUDING A TECH, THE SALES MANAGER, AND THE OWNER. GM HAS A TECHNICAL PI ISSUED, AS THE PROBLEM IS APPARENTLY RELATIVELY COMMON IN THESE VEHICLES. SUGGESTED REPAIRS INCLUDE RE-BONDING THE ROOF SHEET METAL TO THE FRAME, REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL, REPLACEMENT OF THE PROPSHAFT, REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF WHEELS AND TIRES, REMOVAL AND "RELAXING" OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM, AND MORE. NONE OF WHICH APPEARS TO SOLVE THE ISSUE. A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH TURNED UP DOZENS OF CASES WITH THIS ISSUE IN JUST ONE WEBSITE. GM HAS MANUFACTURED A VEHICLE WITH A SIGNIFICANT, KNOWN FLAW THAT THEY CANNOT CURRENTLY FIX. THIS FLAW SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE STRICTLY BASED UPON THE PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS TRIGGERED BY THE SENSATION WITHIN THE VEHICLE.
