AT LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD AND 60K MILES, THE FOLLOWING HAS OCCURRED AT DIFFERENT TIMES UP UNTIL NOW: OVERALL ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION INCLUDING DISPLAY ILLUMINATION FAILURE (DISPLAY GOES COMPLETELY BLACK AND/OR DIM WHILE DRIVING - CANNOT SEE SPEEDOMETER ETC. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON BOTH THE HIGHWAY AND SURFACE STREETS, INCLUDING DAYTIME AND NIGHTTIME), AUDIO/ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM GLITCHES (RADIO VOLUME CHANGES TO AND GETS STUCK RANDOMLY ON HIGHEST VOLUME SETTING (WAS NEVER EVEN SET TO THIS LEVEL) WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING SUDDEN DISTRACTION/DISRUPTION), TAIL LIGHT MALFUNCTION (INTERMITTENTLY STOPS WORKING BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SIDES), AND NOW THE MOTOR TO THE SUNROOF HAS DIED (OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AND AT A MOMENT WHEN IT WAS NECESSARY TO CLOSE FOR SAFETY ON THE HIGHWAY.) THE TRANSMISSION IS DEFECTIVE (FOR THE SECOND TIME - OFF SHIFTS AND DOWNSHIFTS UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING AT BOTH LOWER AND HIGHER SPEEDS. HAS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY REQUIRING ME TO PULL OVER AND RESTART THE VEHICLE.) THESE INCIDENTS HAVE BEEN OCCURRING FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS, BUT BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN INTERMITTENT IT HAS BEEN HARD TO PINPOINT WHEN TO BRING IN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION.

OEM LED TAIL LIGHTS HAVE FAILED ON MY GMC WITH 40,000 MILES ON IT. THE BULB IS GOOD, YET THE LED PORTION (WHICH COSTS OVER $800 TO FIX) NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS PORTION IS THE ENTIRE REAR BRAKE LIGHT HOUSING. THIS IS VERY COMMON AMONG THESE VEHICLES HEATED SEATS QUIT WORKING ON DENALI. THE BACKRESTS STILL HEAT UP, BUT THE BOTTOMS DON'T HEAT UP AT ALL. ALSO, THEY WILL NOT TURN ON IN REMOTE START MODE EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE SET TO TURN ON IN THIS MODE.

FAULTY TAIL LIGHT HOUSING, RESULTS IN TAIL/BRAKE LIGHTS NOT WORKING. NOT THE RESULT OF DAMAGE, SIMPLY BAD DESIGN IN THE LED HOUSING AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS. THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WAS POORLY CONSTRUCTED, AND THE ONLY FIX IS TO COMPLETELY REPLACE THE ENTIRE HOUSING AT $750 INCLUDING LABOR.
