This Problem Across All Years
At stop light vehicle began to sputter and make noise, I was very close to my home, no engine light on. Upon turning vehicle off and using a code reader codes P0106 and P0506 was on scanner. I had vehicle towed to Complete Car Care. Mis fire on multiple cylinders. Vehicle has 69,801 miles. 3 push rods bent and I valve spring broken. The right Cylinder head assembly had to be removed and replaced with 8 new push rods, 8 new lifters, gaskets, seals, and valve spring. Cost was $3304.79. In addition the rear tail light has been sporadic on and off, GM was to replace up to 70,000 miles. When I took it to them they stated the time limit had expired, yet I had not been informed until I did a google search. GM requesting $475 plus tax. I am concerned my vehicle has the same manufacturing defects as the GM motors being recalled with total engine failures.
At stop light vehicle began to sputter, run rough, and make noise. I was less than a mile from my home, no check engine light on. I turned the vehicle off, used a scanner to have codes P0106 and P0506 show. I had vehicle towed to Complete Car Care. Misfire on multiple cylinders, 3 push rods bent, one valve spring broken. The right Cylinder head assembly had to be removed and replaced with 8 new push rods, 8 new lifters, gaskets, seals, and valve spring. Total cost $3304.79, the vehicle only has 69,801 miles on it. In addition one of the rear tail lights has a known issue (found out on google), intermittently goes out, was never notified. I took the car to Jim Hudson GMC to be told it would cost $475 plus tax because I did not come in early enough even though it is to be warranted up to 70,000 miles. I am greatly concerned that this engine has the same manufacturing defects of the current recall and extended recall for the GMC Yukon Denali engines.

I report years ago the seat belts wasn’t work, also all time I report with GMC vibrations and stops power at roads or low power to go in the freeways some times are to , and screen for gos and radio wasn’t work, this was a bad car . I take some videos but the agency try to charge me to check the car. Al of those put my person or others person in a risk because I lost the power in the middle of the road also, 2 of the seats belts are not working 1 of those is for my child, and the screen for gps can make me crazy at roads the system report construction or objects at road and I decrease the velocity in roads and the car was behind me slow or the screen jump from gps to radio or news or whatever some times the touch doesn’t work and I was lost in the roads driving around. The last thing is the vibration went I use the brakes to stop the car is shaking this was my first new car and is bad car and unsafe car

drivers side tail light flickering and sometimes not working a $900+ cost! I issue with right hand side when suv has 32k miles, seems like this is an ongoing issue, luckily it was still under warranty the 1st time. The AC condenser when out in April, also an know issue with the Yukon, they wanted to charge me $1500 to repair, I was able to find someone to do it for around $600, now the outlet and usb ports seem to not work. I also had an issue with the braking system , dealer couldn't figure it out, I finally found someone to repair it, $500 fix. For what I paid for the Yukon, you would think they would use top of the line parts!

UNKNOWN 4 times in the past 6 months, while parking the vehicle (turning into a spot, left or right) or slowly turning to pull up to a security code box, the car completely begins to lose power in drive, and has lost power while in drive twice. The dash begins to flicker to the point that you can't decipher which error codes are showing up. Most recently, the Trailer Brake Service message was on before it died. We were not towing anything, did not have tow mode on, or anything like that. The parking sensors were on for all these instances...regardless if we were parking or not. I can't confirm if that is the issue or not. It was pretty dangerous when I was pulling into my parents driveway along a busy road when the car did this before I was completely off the road...with my 3 young children in the back 2 rows. I know the battery is new. I did have the dealer look at the brakes about a month ago, because I felt they were soft. They said they were fine. They and myself checked the reservoir for brake fluid low. Was in normal range. Starter was replaced in March time frame. I feel this is related to the factory trailering system wiring harness or something.

I was driving and all my sensors came on stating they needed service including front camera, blind spot notification, lane departure, emergency braking etc. upon parking I exited my vehicle and walked around the rear of my car to find multiple wires hanging down burned from my exhaust. I took my vehicle to an automotive repair shop and not the dealer since it was no longer under warranty. They said they had never seen anything like it. It appeared the harness that holds the sensor module/wires disconnected from the car. It appears to be held in place with some sort of industrial glue. When it failed it was hanging in front of the exhaust and melted all of them. This disabled all of these sensors. I now have to pay for a new harness and to replace all of these sensors. In researching online it appears water intrusion has caused issues in some models and caused these harnesses to fail. I’m wondering if this is the cause even though this model isn’t part of the recall.

The rear break lights malfunctioned and will quite working periodically there has been no inspection from a dealership at this moment and driving at night time puts me and my family at risk due to the fact that I could be rear ended and cause a major accident and my vehicle has no warning light or service light for this problem.

This complaint is not in response to an event. It is a safety issue resulting from a common problem with this vehicle model, i.e.: brake light failure. The tail/brake light LED circuit board has a design weakness resulting in cracking of the board in 2 common locations, resulting in stop light illumination failures, which could lead to rear end collisions. GM has not issued a recall and their extended warranty allowance is inadequate, thereby leaving a significant repair expense falling to owners when the problem is encountered. The proper safety response is for GM to recall all of the vehicles with this style tail light in order to repair the circuit board weakness.

1) LED tail-lights fail intermittently - this is a known problem GM does not proactively address unless customers complain repeatedly. Puts driver and passenger in danger. this began happening at 25K miles. 2) AC condenser fails - GM will not address as part of a broader recall despite extensive late model customer complaints. This put passengers in danger on any road trip across desert terrain. GM has been unresponsive despite numerous calls asking for resolution. This occurred at 36k miles. 3) Electrical failings - numerous electrical failings - from entertainment system (at 10k miles), starter motor and internal lighting - all failing at 36k miles. NHTSA must take a look at these manufacturing defects - they are putting customers at risk!

The brake lights fail. First the left light failed, and two days later the right light failed. After researching, this is a common problem with GM and these models. The fix is not just a bulb- the whole rear light assemblies (each side) needs replacing with GM price quotes of $900 a side. We were over 1000 miles away from home.

THE AIR CONDITIONING IN MY 2017 YUKON XL STOPPED BLOWING COLD AIR. THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH GMC CONDENSERS. I BROUGHT MY YUKON TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT INDEED IT WAS THE CONDENSER WHICH CAUSED REFRIGERANT TO LEAK. HOWEVER, IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT 17336 AS MY VIN # WAS NOT INCLUDED FOR SOME REASON. SAME PROBLEM, BUT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS OUT OF MY POCKET - $1200. I LIVE IN THE DEEP SOUTH, HAVE SMALL CHILDREN, AND CANNOT GO WITHOUT AC.

TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AT 88K MILES. MY SISTER IN LAW ALSO HAS A 2017 BOUGHT FROM ANOTHER STATE AND IT WENT OUT AT 79K MILES A WEEK AFTER MINE. PASSENGER SIDE TAIL LIGHT WORKS IF YOU PUSH ON IT THEN RANDOMLY GOES OUT (WIRING/ELECTRICAL ISSUE). OF COURSE THE DRIVERS SIDE TAIL LIGHT IS THE ONLY ONE ON RECALL. CRUISE CONTROL SET ITSELF AT OVER 100MPH AND RAPIDLY ACCELERATED UNTIL I HIT THE BRAKES. I RECEIVED A RECALL FOR THE BREAKING SYSTEM SPECIFICALLY FOR MY VIN NUMBER THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED NOW THAT MY TRANSMISSION IS COMPLETE.

WHILE PARKED AND RUNNING WITH NO DRIVER IN THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLES KEY FOB WAS LOCKED IN THE CAR BY A PASSENGER EXITING THE VEHICLE. THE PASSENGER, A CHILD, EXITED THE VEHICLE AND PUSHED THE "DOOR LOCK" BUTTON AND THEN CLOSED THE DOOR, LOCKING IT WHILE RUNNING WITH THE KEY FOB IN THE VEHICLE. NO WARNING ALERT NOISE WAS EMITTED AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK THE DOORS AS DESIGNED. THE WEATHER WAS APPROX. 80 DEGREES. THIS HAZARD IS NOT SUPPOSE TO OCCUR AND POSES A HIGH RISK OF CAUSING HARM OR DEATH TO AN UNSUSPECTING PASSENGER. THE HAZARD MITIGATION FOR THIS EVENT FAILED.
WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE DASH DISPLAYED NUMEROUS AND RANDOM ERROR MESSAGES: (WORDING MAY NOT BE EXACT) SERVICE FRONT COLLISION SYSTEM. FRONT RADAR BLOCKED. FRONT COLLISION SYSTEM UNAVAILABLE. THESE MESSAGES INDICATED A PROBLEM WITH THE FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM. THE WEATHER ON THE PARTICULAR DAY VARIED. ERRORS OCCURRED AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THIS HAZARD CAN CAUSE SERIOUS HARM IF THE SENSORS DETECT AN IMMINENT FORWARD CRASH IN ERROR AND APPLY THE BRAKES IN TRAFFIC. THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION IS LIKELY TO RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. THE ROOT CAUSE WAS DETERMINED TO BE RELATED TO AN ADDITIONAL FAILURE MODE IDENTIFIED IN THE OILY SUBSTANCE LEAKING FROM THE CONTROL BOX MOUNTED ON THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. THIS OILY SUBSTANCE WAS IDENTIFIED BY THE VEHICLE OWNER AND REPORTED TO THE DEALER.

UPON DRIVING VEHICLE WATER WAS OBSERVED TO DRIP FROM UPPER LEFT HAND DRIVERS COMPARTMENT ONTO DRIVER. THE WEATHER HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN RAINING. ROOF FABRIC WAS SATURATED AND WATER WAS ACTIVELY FALLING. THE DEALER CONFIRMED THE ANTENNA ASSEMBLY ON THE ROOF WAS A KNOWN FAILURE MODE FOR THIS HAZARD. WATER CAN PASSIVELY MIGRATE THROUGH INTERIOR COLUMN. VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN THROUGH ANY MECHANICAL OR AUTOMATED WASHING SYSTEM. VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN SUBJECT TO ANY EXTERNAL CAUSE. FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY FAULTY MANUFACTURING ASSEMBLY PROCESS.
WHILE DRIVING WITH THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM ACTIVELY NAVIGATING THE DESTINATION PATH, THE CENTER CONSOLE DISPLAY SCREEN TURNS TO A BLACK SCREEN WITH NO NAVIGATION FEATURES. THE CONSOLE RANDOMLY REBOOTS AND MUST RESTART. THIS FAILURE MODE CAN CAUSE EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS BY DELAYING THE DRIVERS ABILITY TO FOLLOW THE CORRECT ROUTE. THE DEALER IDENTIFIED THE CAUSE TO BE THE RADIO ASSEMBLY. RADIO REPLACED. SIMILAR SITUATION CONTINUE TO OCCUR WITH THE REPLACEMENT RADIO.
WHILE DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY FLASHES. VEHICLE RUNS EXTREMELY ROUGH, SLUGGISH AT TIMES. DEALER CHECKED VEHICLE OVER A PERIOD OF TIME AND EVENTUALLY CONFIRMED RANDOM MISFIRES. UNABLE TO FIX ISSUE. UNABLE TO DETERMINE CAUSE. VEHICLE WAS LATER CONFIRMED TO HAVE A FAULTY TRANSMISSION TRANSMISSION REPLACED BY DEALER.
