2016 GMC Yukon XL complaints

MY VEHICLE IS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD. THE RIGHT REAR LED TAILLIGHT HAS FAILED. THE TAILLIGHT NO LONGER WORKS. IT DOES NOT WORK WITH THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS OR WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE BRAKE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2016 GMC YUKONS. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS $900.00 TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE LIGHT HOUSING.

BOTH TAIL LIGHTS AND BREAK LIGHTS HAVE STOPPED WORKING. THEY ARE MORE THAN $700 EACH AND GM KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM AS THEY HAVE NO LIGHTS AVAILABLE, THEY ARE ON BACKORDER FOR WEEKS. YOU CAN FIND A FIX ONLINE BY RESOLDERING A METAL PIECE THAT CAN TEMPORARILY FIX THE PROBLEM.

MY DRIVER SIDE TAILLIGHT WENT OUT. DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO REPLACE AS MY 2016 WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER, THE DEALERSHIP ADMITTED TO THE LARGE NUMBER OF LIGHTS THAT THEY HAVE HAD TO REPLACE. I HAD TO ORDER AND AFTERMARKET LIGHT TO REPLACE MYSELF. THE VERY NEXT DAY AFTER REPLACING THE LIGHT, MY PASSENGER SIDE TAILLIGHT IS NOW OUT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!! SO MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ONLINE. THIS FIRST HAPPENED TO DRIVE SIDE AROUND JULY 2019.WE WERE FINALLY ABLE TO REPLACE THE LIGHT IN JAN 2020. THE PASSENGER TAILLIGHT WENT OUT 1/13/2020.

WE HAVE HAD OUR 2016 YUKON XL FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS. LAST YEAR WE STARTED EXPERIENCING EPISODES WHERE THE VEHICLE WILL SHIFT DOWN INTO REDUCED POWER MODE WITH P0090 AND P0091 AS THE FAULT CODES. WE HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE DEALER, BUT ONCE THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TURNED OFF FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES OR SO IT CLEARS AND LEAVES NO TRACE OF AN ISSUE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND RECENTLY SHIFTED INTO REDUCED POWER LEAVING US ONLY ABLE TO DRIVE 35 MILES PER HOUR. WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY IN MARYLAND WITH CARS FLYING AROUND US AT ~80 MILES PER HOUR. WE HAD ALL OF OUR CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND WERE IN THE FAR LEFT LANE. THE REDUCED POWER MADE IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GET TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER SAFELY. I HAVE A FRIEND WITH A NEW GMC SIERRA THAT HAS THE SAME ISSUE. HE DROPPED IT OFF AT HIS DEALER FOR 3 WEEKS AND RETURNED IT FINDING ANY ISSUES. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. ALL IT WILL TAKE IS SOMEONE DYING TO TURN IT INTO A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT.

MY REAR TAIL LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING AND THE DEALERSHIP IS CHARGING $800 TO REPLACE THE MODULE. PREVIOUSLY I HAD A 2016 YUKON XL AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED AROUND 40K MILES. MY SISTER-IN-LAW ALSO HAS A 2016 YUKON XL AND ONE OF HER TAIL LIGHTS DID THE SAME THING. AFTER SEARCHING ONLINE THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2015 AND 2016 YUKON XL MODELS AND GM SHOULD BE REPLACING THESE PARTS AT NO COST TO THESE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR ISN'T EVEN 5 YEARS OLD.

BRAKES WERE NOT 100% RESPONSIVE STARTING IN SUMMER 2019; VACUUM PUMP WAS REPLACED PURSUANT TO RECALL IN LATE 2019 AND SOFTWARE ERROR RELATED TO BRAKING WAS ADDRESSED BY DEALER IN JANUARY 2020. CUSTOMER STATED TO DEALER THAT BRAKES ARE STILL NOT 100% RESPONSIVE, AND THAT BRAKES WILL PULSE A FEW TIMES WHEN PRESSED AND BEFORE THE VEHICLE ACTUALLY STARTS TO STOP. DEALER REFUSED TO CONSIDER THAT EXISTING ISSUES WITH LAST TWO RECALLS IN 2019 RELATED TO BRAKES COULD BE CAUSING NON-RESPONSIVE BRAKES.

RIGHT TAIL LIGHT WENT PUT, TOOK IT TO GET FIXED. THEY SAID IT WAS THE CIRCUIT BOARD AND I HAD TO PAY $900 TO GET IT FIXED. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAVE HAD A TON OF THE CIRCUIT BOARD REPLACEMENTS AND DIDN'T KNOW WHY GM DIDN'T DO A RECALL. NOW, MY LEFT SIDE CIRCUIT BOARD IS OUT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

TRANSMISSION SHUDDERING AND HARD, CLUNKY SHIFTING

REAR PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT FIXTURE LED FAILED AS A RESULT OF FAILURE OF METAL CONTACT POINT WITHIN LED ENCLOSURE. ISSUE IS WELL DOCUMENTED ON THE INTERNET HOWEVER GMC HAS FAILED TO RESPONSE. VEHICLE IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD WITH 79,300 MILES. REPAIR COST WAS ESTIMATED AT $913.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 GMC YUKON XL. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO CRASH INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. PRIOR TO THE CRASH, THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP WAS REPLACED, BUT THE BRAKES DID NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER SERVICED AT MICK DONALD'S GMC(5155 STATE ST, SAGINAW, MI) PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V645000(SERVICE BRAKES) IN WHICH THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL MODULE WAS REPROGRAMMED. AFTERWARDS, THE BRAKES OPERATED NORMALLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000.

LEFT REAR BRAKE LIGHT FAILED IN APRIL, 2019, DEALER ESTIMATE TO REPLACE, $709.86, AFTER SOME HEATED DISCUSSION, "WARRANTY FROM GMC REDUCED THE BILL TO $186. 49,326 MILES WHEN LIGHT REPLACED. 15 SEPTEMBER 2019, MILEAGE 54,290, THE RIGHT BRAKE LIGHT FAILED AND WAS ORDERED BY DEALER, ESTIMATE TO REPAIR $709.86, PART DID NOT COME IN IN 30 DAYS, SO I CALLED GMC TECH ASSIST SERVICE (866-790-5600 AND SPOKE WITH "CHRIS" WHO OPENED A CASE #[XXX]. THIS WAS PASSED TO GMC'S JESSICA AT (866-790-5600 EXT.[XXX]. CONTACTING HER PROVED DIFFICULT AND THE PART STILL DID NOT SHOW UP. FINALLY, ON 18 NOVEMBER, 2019 THE DEALERSHIP CALLED AND SAID THEY HAD THE PART AND INSTALLED IT ON 19 NOVEMBER, 2019, VEHICLE MILAGE NOW 59,061. DEALER CHARGED $418.00. FOR THE LIGHT AND WORK SHOWING A TOTAL COST OF $709.86 AND MY REPAIR COST "COPAY" BEING $418.00 WITH THE GMC WARRANTY SUPPOSEDLY PICKING UP THE DIFFERENCE. TWO MORE ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT "[XXX]", 22 NOV. @ 12:30 P.M., AND 26 NOV. @ 1425 GOT NO RESPONSE. FINALLY CONTACTED HER ON 02 DEC. AND SHE WAS UNAWARE THE PART HAD SHIPPED BUT FOUND THE RECORD AND SAID THAT THE FROM $709.86 TO $418.00 WAS THE ONLY THING THEY COULD DO AND THAT I HAD NO RECOURSE. SHE DID OFFER TO HAVE HER SUPERVISOR CALL ME AND SAID SHE WOULD RECORD MY DISLIKE OF THE SETTLEMENT. SHE COULD NOT OR WOULD NOT ATTEMPT TO EXPLAIN WHY THERE WAS SUCH A HUGE DIFFERENCE IN THE PRICE BETWEEN THE LIGHTS OR THE AMOUNT THAT THE GMC WARRANTY WOULD COVER. LOOKING ONLINE, I NOTE THAT HAVE BEEN MANY TH

I PURCHASED MY 2016 YUKON XL DENALI USED WITH 40K MILES. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE LESS THEN A WEEK AND HAVE HAD SEVERAL PEOPLE TELL ME THAT I HAVE A BRAKE LIGHT OUT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, BUT EVERY TIME I STOP AND HAVE IT LOOKED AT ITS WORKING JUST FINE. THE COST TO REPLACE IT IS APPROXIMATELY $700 FOR EACH ASSEMBLY. AFTER SOME RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE AND THAT GMC IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BUT WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I'M AFRAID THAT I MIGHT BE REAR ENDED BECAUSE THE LIGHTS DECIDE NOT TO WORK AT THAT MOMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 GMC YUKON XL. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT'S WIFE NOTICED A LEAK ENTERING THE CABIN FROM THE OVERHEAD ANTENNA. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ALSO, WHILE PULLING INTO THE DRIVEWAY AND DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE CONTACT'S NEIGHBOR INFORMED HIM THAT ALL THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS (REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHTS AND TAILGATE BRAKE LIGHT) WERE NOT FUNCTIONING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NORTH COUNTY BUICK GMC (LOCATED AT 1515 AUTO PARK WAY N, ESCONDIDO, CA 92029, (866) 852-7135) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OVERHEAD ANTENNA AND ALL THREE BRAKE LIGHTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE BRAKE LIGHT AND ANTENNA WERE REPAIRED, BUT THE OTHER BRAKE LIGHTS WERE STILL NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 61,000.

TAIL LIGHT WENT OUT AND IS A KNOWN AND COMMON ISSUE WITHIN 2 TO 4 YEARS OF VEHICLE OWNERSHIP (OFTEN BOTH SIDES GO OUT). IN MY CASE, THE DRIVER SIDE TAIL LIGHT WENT OUT. TOTAL COST FOR ME WAS $850. THERE ARE MANY COMMENTS REGARDING THIS ONLINE. TYPICAL COST TO REPAIR IS $700 TO $800 AT DEALERSHIP. ONLY OTHER OPTION TO REDUCE COST IS TO MAIL OUT PART, BUT THIS LEAVES YOU WITHOUT A VEHICLE FOR SEVERAL DAYS FOR REPAIR AND DELIVERY TIME.

2016 GMC YUKON XL C1500 SLE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO SAFETY RECALL NOTICE N192268490 ISSUES WITH POWER BRAKE ASSIST. *AS *JS

THE TAILIGHT/BRAKE LIGHT KEEP GOING BAD. IT WORKS HALF THE TIME. I WILL CHECK IT AND IT'S WORKING THEN I HIT A BUMP AND PEOPLE TELL ME IT'S NOT WORKING. I HIT ANOTHER BUMP I LOOK AND IT WORKING. AFTER REPLACING IT ONCE ALREADY HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND THEY WANT ANOTHER $1000 TO FIX IT BUT THE DEALER TOLD ME GMC NOW HAS A BETTER REPLACEMENT FOR IT. IF THEY HAVE A BETTER BUILT OPTION THEN GMC SHOULD BE MADE TO CHANGE LIGHTS ON ALL OF THEM BEFORE SOME ONE GETS KILLED.

VEHICLE WAS UNDER RECALL AND SERVICE WAS COMPLETED AT GM DEALER MID OCTOBER. FOLLOWING RECALL FOR BRAKE VACUM PUMP AND NEW COMPUTER PROGRAM, I LOST MY BRAKES ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS AT SLOW SPEEDS IN REVERSE AND FORWARD. VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO DEALER AND AFTER TWO DAYS OF TESTING VEHICLE WOULD NOT DUPLICATE ISSUE OR PROVIDE A CODE. DEALER RETURNED VEHICLE. THAT DAY 11/05/2019 BRAKE FAILURE OCCURED ON TWO SEPERATE OCCASIONS BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAY ON GRADE. UPON CONTACT WITH DEALER ADVISED THEY WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING FURTHER UNTIL A CODE WAS PROVIDED. IF I WISHED TO REPLACE THE EBC VACUM PUMP IT WOULD BE OUT OF POCKET. VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN DAILY UNTIL ANOTHER APPOINTMENT CAN BE MADE. ON 11/13/2019 BRAKE FAILURE OCCURED AGAIN ON TWO OCCASIONS. WHEN FAILURE OCCURS PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND WHAT SOUNDS LIKE ABS NOISE IS ACTIVE WITH A PULSATION IN THE PEDAL. VEHICLE WILL NOT STOP AND HAVE TO USE E-BRAKE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AS BRAKING DISTANCE IS DRAMATICLY REDUCED. A FOLLOW-UP APPOINT WILL BE MADE WITH GM DEALER AGAIN.

I WAS NOTIFIED BY ANOTHER DRIVER MY PASSENGER REAR TAIL LIGHT WAS OUT. THERE IS NO NOTIFICATION ON THE DASHBOARD TO ALERT DRIVERS. THE NEXT DAY THE LIGHT WAS WORKING. I CONTINUED TO CHECK IT PERIODICALLY AND FIGURED IT WAS A FLUKE. I WAS STOPPED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING THAT THE LIGHT WAS OUT ROUGHLY A WEEK LATER. AFTER LOOKING INTO REPAIR THE COST IS RIDICULOUS $650-$800+ AND IT APPEARS TO BE A WIDELY KNOWN ISSUE. I WAS ACTUALLY IN A PARKING LOT AND SAW A VEHICLE EXACTLY LIKE MINE SAME LIGHT OUT. NOT SURE WHY LIGHTS ARE GOING OUT IN A THREE YEAR OLD VEHICLE JUST HITTING 40000 MILES.

I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND POWER OF THE CAR FOR OVER TWO YEARS. I HAVE CONTACTED GMC AND HAVE FOLLOWED EVERYTHING THAT GMC HAVE REQUESTED FOR ME TO DO WITH A VEHICLE. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO FOUR DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS, HAVE HAD EVERYTHING DONE WITH IT FROM FLUSHING IT THREE TO FOUR TIMES AND HAVE HAD TORQUE CONVERTER REPLACED THE CONTROL VALVE BODY REPLACE. RECALL FOR THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ALSO DONE. AFTER EVERYTHING THE CAR IS IN WORST CONDITION AT THE MOMENT.

BREAK PEDAL GETS HARD AT THE TIME TRADE TO STOP THE VEHICLE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 GMC YUKON XL. WHILE DRIVING AT LOW OR HIGH SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SHOOK VIOLENTLY AS IF IT WOULD FALL APART. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CAPPELLINO BUICK GMC (5411 TRANSIT RD, BUFFALO, NY 14221) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A TORQUE CONVERTER SHUDDER FAILURE AND A TRANSMISSION FLUSH WAS COMPLETED. THE DEALER ADVISED THE CONTACT TO DRIVE FOR 200 MILES TO CORRECT THE FAILURE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE ANOTHER TRANSMISSION FLUSH WAS COMPLETED. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THE SHEET METAL ON THE CROSS-MEMBER WAS CAUSING THE VIBRATION. THE CROSS MEMBER WAS REPAIRED. AFTER THE REPAIRS, THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE WAS UNCOMFORTABLE WITH UNEVEN PRESSURE AND A HIGH VELOCITY VIBRATION. THE SAME DEALER AND WEST HERR CHEVROLET OF WILLIAMSVILLE (8040 TRANSIT RD, WILLIAMSVILLE, NY 14221) PERFORMED SEVERAL TRANSMISSION FLUSHES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND A CLAIM WAS FILED. THE CONTACT WAS COMPENSATED FOR THE FAILURE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY AT THE WEST HERR DEALER AS THE VEHICLE WAS STALLING, THE RPMS INCREASED, AND THE TRACTION AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,241.

PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT STOPPED WORKING (BOTH IN MOTION AND STATIONARY). IT LOOKS LIKE MANY OWNERS ARE ALSO EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM, SO WOULD BE GREAT IF AN INVESTIGATION COULD BE STARTED.

BOTH LED TAIL LIGHTS STARTED FLICKERING AND FAILED WITHIN A MONTH OF EACH OTHER. THE MECHANIC SAID THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THESE LIGHTS AND THAT THE CIRCUIT BOARD FAILED.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING DOWN A MAJOR ROAD AND A PERSON PULLED NEXT TO HER AT A STOP TO TELL HER THAT HER BRAKE LIGHTS WERE WORKING ONLY PART OF THE TIME. GM HAD JUST SERVICED MY VEHICLE AND DIDN'T CATCH IT, AND UPON RESEARCHING THE ISSUE, IT IS A KNOWN FAULTY DESIGN OF THE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THE LED BRAKE LIGHT STARTS INTERMITTENTLY FAILING AT THE 2 YEAR POINT, LEADING TO DRIVERS FOLLOWING DRIVERS TO NOT KNOW THAT THE LEADING VEHICLE IS STOPPING. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND THE ONLY RESPONSE FROM GM IS TO MAKE THE CUSTOMER BUY A NEW $700 BRAKE LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THE ISSUE IS SO COMMON THAT MULTIPLE COMPANIES HAVE STARTED BRAKE LIGHT REPAIR SERVICES AND MULTIPLE YOUTUBE VIDEOS EXIST TO WALK INDIVIDUALS THROUGH THE PROCESS OF REPAIRING THEIR OWN BRAKE LIGHTS. THE COST OF THE REPAIR IS SO STEEP THAT I HESITATE TO GET THE PROBLEM FIXED, AND THOUGH GM REPORTEDLY HAS DEVELOPED A REPLACEMENT LIGHT ASSEMBLY THAT CORRECTS THE FAULT, THEY ARE NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECTIVE BRAKE LIGHT ASSEMBLE THAT THESE VEHICLES COME OFF THE ASSEMBLY LINE WITH. THE MAJOR DANGER IS THAT WE DRIVE FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND LIKELY DO NOT KNOW OUR BRAKE LIGHTS ARE INTERMITTENTLY FAILING--SINCE GM CANNOT EVEN CATCH THIS WHEN THEY DO SERVICE ON VEHICLES (MINE HAD BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR AN OIL CHANGE A FEW WEEKS BEFORE THE BRAKE ISSUE), THEN THEY ARE LEAVING A LOT OF CUSTOMERS DRIVING WITHOUT BRAKE LIGHTS TO AVOID THE COST OF THE REPAIR EVEN THOUGH THEY APPROVED A FAULTY DESIGN.

RUNNING BOARDS FAILING TO WORK PROPERLY ALL THE TIME. SOMETIMES WILL START TO GO DOWN BUT RETURN UP WHEN OPENING DOOR. WILL ALSO FAIL TO GO UP AFTER CLOSING DOOR AND REMAIN DOWN. MIDDLE ROW DVD SCREEN IS BLACK AND NOT WORKING. REAR BRAKE LIGHTS WORKING OFF AND ON. HORRIBLE LOUD SQUEALING SOUND UNDER THE HOOD. THE VEHICLE WILL ALSO BEGIN TO SHAKE RANDOMLY AND FEELS JUMPY AT TIMES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 GMC YUKON XL. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS OR WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS EITHER INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATED OR DID NOT ILLUMINATE AT ALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY BOARD WAS LOOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,348.

TRANSMISSION HAS NOT SHIFTED CORRECTLY. SHUDDERING OCCURS OR SHIFTS ARE NOT SMOOTH

OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS, WE HAVE BEEN HEARING THIS CLICKING SOUND IN OUR 2016 GMC YUKON XL. ADDITIONALLY, WE HAD EXPERIENCED OCCASIONAL TIMES WHERE THE VEHICLES BRAKES WOULD NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY MOSTLY IN SLOWER SPEED SITUATIONS. IN THE LAST SEVERAL WEEKS, THE SHORT RANGE BRAKING WAS HINDERED AGAIN AS THE BREAK WOULD 'STICK' AND NOT SLOW THE CAR. SEVERAL CLOSE INSTANCES OF HITTING EITHER ANOTHER CAR OR FAMILY MEMBER. I THEN LOOKED UP ON NHTSA IF ANY RECALLS, AND I NOTICED A RECALL WHICH DESCRIBED EXACTLY WHAT WE HAD BEEN EXPERIENCING. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP YESTERDAY AND THEY TOLD MY WIFE IT WAS FIXED AND SENT HER ON HER WAY TO PICK UP MY 5 CHILDREN FROM SCHOOL. A FEW HOURS LATER, THE CAR JUST WOULDN'T BREAK AND MY WIFE CALLED ME TO ACTUALLY GO TO THE LOCATION ON MY CHILD'S PRACTICE SO I COULD DRIVE IT HOME AS SHE DIDN'T TRUST THE VEHICLE ANY LONGER. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY. UPON THEIR INSPECTION, THEY SAID THE VACUUM PUMP WAS FAULTY AND WOULD COST $500 TO FIX. THEN I STARTED TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER, AND TO MY SURPRISE, THERE APPEARS TO BE A LONG STANDING ISSUE WITH 2014-16 GM VEHICLES THAT HAVE HAD FAULTY VACUUM PUMPS. HOWEVER, THESE HAVEN'T BEEN RECALLED YET. THE REVIEW ALSO LED ME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE CLICKING SOUND WE WOULD HEAR APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO THIS FAULTY PART. UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME, MY MILES ARE BEYOND THE WARRANTY PERIOD BUT THIS HAS BEEN A PERSISTENT ISSUE FOR A LONG TIME. BASICALLY, IT FEELS AS IF MY FAMIL

DRIVERS BRAKE LIGHT SHORTS OUT AND STOPS WORKING.

LED BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED AND CANNOT BE REPAIRED. I CANNOT REPLACE BULBS EITHER. GMC WANTS $600+ TO REPLACE THE LIGHT WITH ONE THAT HAS RISK OF FAILURE, SAME AS THE ORIGINAL! NO GUARANTEE!

I HAD THE RECALL (N192268490) APPLIED TO MY YUKON ON 12 SEP. I ONLY EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL 2X PRIOR TO THE RECALL. SINCE THE RECALL I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE INCIDENTS MUCH WORSE THAN THAN THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM. TONIGHT THE BRAKES WERE SO BAD I OVER SHOT MY PARKING SPOT AND DROVE INTO SOME BUSHES. IF A HARD STRUCTURE WAS THERE I WOULD HAVE DAMAGED THE CAR. THIS PROBLEM IS REPEATABLE. NO WARNING LIGHTS COME ON BUT THE "GRADE BREAKING ON" LIGHT WILL COME ON. THE BREAK PEDAL WAS VERY SOFT AND SHUTTERED. I EMPHASIZE THIS IS NEW SINCE THE RECALL WAS IMPLEMENTED.

A CAR BRAKED IN FRONT OF ME GOING AROUND 40 MILES PER HOUR. I WAS UNABLE TO STOP IN TIME AND REARENDED THEM. THIS CAR IS PART OF THE GM RECALL FOR BRAKES

THE RIGHT TAIL LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT FAILED AT ONLY 44,000 MILES. FAILS TO WORK IN ALL PHASES OF OPERATION.

THE LED BRAKE LIGHTS FAIL INTERMITTENTLY AND THEN COMPLETELY DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW OF WEAK CIRCUITRY. THE LED CIRCUIT BREAKS FROM FATIGUE IN THE BRAKE LIGHT HOUSING. THERE IS NO DASH NOTIFICATION TO TELL YOU WHEN A BRAKE LIGHT HAS FAILED. GM REPLACEMENT BRAKE LIGHTS COST $650 EACH BUT THEY HAVE THE SAME DESIGN FLAW. PICTURES ATTACHED.

VEHICLE SHAKES/VIBRATES ABOVE 35 MPH. WHEN VEHICLE ACCELERATES ABOVE 35 MPH THE THE STEERING WILL VIBRATE WITH A FEELING THAT THE SUSPENSION IS SHIMMYING/SHUDDERING RAPIDLY. THIS IS ESPECIALLY BAD ON AN INCLINE FROM A STOPPED POSITION. AS THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES UP THE INCLINE, WHEN APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH IS ATTAINED, THE ENTIRE VEHICLE WILL STEADILY SHUDDER/VIBRATE. TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY VIBRATE IN THE FRONT END AND IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS OCCURS WITH BRAND NEW TIRES THAT HAVE BEEN BALANCED AND RE-BALANCED TO CONFIRM IT IS NOT TIRE RELATED.

THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT, THE ENGINE IS MAKING A NOISE AND A SERVICE CENTER SAID LOTS OF GM'S VEHICLES ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM ALSO STOP WORKING AND I HAVE TO REPLACE IT

DRIVER SIDE REAR BRAKE AND TAIL LIGHT AND TURN SIGNAL WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. SOMETIMES IT WORKS FINE, SOME TIMES IT FLICKERS, AND SOMETIMES IT IT TOTALLY OUT. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS RANDOMLY. I HAVE SEEN IT WHILE PARKED, AND WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD

BRAKE LIGHTS FAULTY. HAVE HAD BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER'S SIDE REPLACED. DRIVERS SIDE IS NOW SHORTING OUT AGAIN. TONS OF OWNERS OF THE YUKON LINE HAVE HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH FAULTY TAIL LIGHTS. LAW ENFORCEMENT THINKS IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE WHICH IT IS! THESE TAIL LIGHTS WORK INTERMITTENTLY OR NOT AT ALL!

VEHICLE BEGAN HESITATING DURING ACCELERATION. PROBLEM OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY AT FIRST BUT NOW OCCURS EACH TIME THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON OCCASIONALLY. THIS JERKING CAUSES SAFETY ISSUES WHEN TRYING TO INCREASE SPEED. MANY COMPLAINTS ARE ON LINE FROM OTHER OWNERS WITH SAME ISSUE

THE PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT STOPPED WORKING WITH NO INDICATION ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM FOR MODEL YEARS 2015 THRU 2019 DUE TO A DESIGN/MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THE REPAIR INVOLVES REPLACING THE ENTIRE TAILLIGHT ASSEMBLY FOR ABOUT $800. THE DEALER WILL NOT REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY AFTER 2 YEARS OR 24,000 MILES EVEN THOUGH IT IS A SAFETY RELATED DEFECT. THERE IS NOT A SAFETY RECALL AT THE PRESENT TIME. MY VEHICLE IS OVER 2 YEARS OLD BUT ONLY HAS 20,000 MILES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 GMC YUKON XL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE TAIL LIGHT WAS INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO PRINCE CHEVROLET OF ALBANY (2701 LEDO ROAD, ALBANY, GEORGIA 31707, 229-432-6271) TWICE FOR THE TAIL LIGHT FAILURE; HOWEVER, THE DEALER STATED THAT THE REPLACEMENT LED LIGHT WAS NOT AVAILABLE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 GMC YUKON XL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE SHUDDERED WHEN SHIFTING GEARS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION, TRANSMISSION FLUID, AND WIRING HARNESS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED; HOWEVER, PARTS NUMBER: 700, 711, 2429, 7371, AND 87571 WERE ON BACKORDER. THE CONTACT CALLED TED BRITT CHEVROLET (46990 HARRY BYRD HWY, STERLING, VA 20164, (703) 955-3610), BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD ATTEMPT TO LOCATE THE PARTS; HOWEVER, NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS A LEMON. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,350.

GMC 2016 YUKON XL DENALI BACK TAILLIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS ARE OUT. ALL OF THEM. VERY DANGEROUS. GMC DENIED RESPONSIBILITY BUT EVERYONE I KNOW THAT HAS THE SAME CAR SAYS THEY HAVE HAD ISSUES. NEVER HAD THIS IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE IN 30+ YEARS OF DRIVING. THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY FAULTY AND THEY NEED TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY

THE FRONT COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK. I CAN SET A 1-3 BAR ALERT ON THE STEERING WHEEL, HOWEVER IN THE 3 MONTHS I'VE OWNED THE CAR AND TRYING DIFFERENT MANEUVERS AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS, I DON'T GET A AN AUDIBLE NOR VISUAL RED LIGHT WARNING THAT I'VE EXPERIENCED ON A NEWER CHEVY IMPALA I DRIVE. THE DASH INFO CENTER BELOW THE GAUGES WILL CHANGE FROM A GREEN SEMI-CIRCULAR 3 BAR SYSTEM TO A YELLOW IF I COME WITHIN THE 3 CAR LENGTHS SET OF ANOTHER VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING. I'VE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE USING GOOGLE AND QUITE A FEW PEOPLE SAY DIFFERENT GMC MODELS WITH THIS SYSTEM ALL BEHAVE DIFFERENTLY. EVERYONE USES THE YOU TUBE VIDEO BY GM AS THE EXAMPLE OF HOW IT IS SUPPOSED TO WORK. NOTE, MY WINDSHIELD NEXT TO THE REARVIEW MIRROR IS CLEAN, SO THE SENSORS ARE NOT IMPEDED. TO ME, SETTING THE SYSTEM TO THE MAXIMUM FORWARD DISTANCE TO AVOID A COLLISION GIVES YOU A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY THAT COULD EASILY LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. THE SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK AS DESIGNED.

2016 GMC YUKON DENALI XL 40K MINT CONDITION BOUNCES VIGOROUSLY AT SLOW SPEEDS AND EVEN MORE SO AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT IS TO A POINT THE RIDE IS UNBEARABLE AND POTENTIALLY DOWN RIGHT DANGEROUS. I HAVE READ COUNTLESS COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE AND I AS WELL AS MANY OTHERS ARE WONDERING WHY IS THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUED ON THE SHOCK AND STRUTS ON THESE VEHICLES .(2015-2016)

THE RIGHT REAR BRAKE LIGHT QUIT WORKING. WILL COME ON WHEN PUSHED AGAINST CAR. DEALER SAID IT WAS ELECTRICAL IN THE BRAKE LIGHT UNIT.

MY LEFT TAILLIGHT IS OUT. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE LIGHT IT JUST STOPPED WORKING! IT WOULD WORK SOMETIME AND SOMETIME IT WOULD NOT. NOW IT IS NOT WORKING AT ALL!

REAR DRIVER'S SIDE BRAKE LIGHT IS INOPERABLE. MY VEHICLE IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD. IF MY LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT VIEWS THIS AS A PROBLEM, SO SHOULD THE NHTSA. GMC NEEDS TO RECALL THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO REPORT THIS PROBLEM FOR IT TO BE ADDRESSED? THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE!!!

REAR PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHT HAS STOPPED WORKING. TOOK INTO DEALERSHIP AND IT APPEARS GMC DOES NOT COVER UNDER WARRANTY. IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS OF REAR BRAKE LIGHT ISSUES WITH GMC VEHICLES, SPECIFICALLY YUKONS BUT GMC CONTINUES TO INDICATE THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM.

AT 64,497 MY WIFE'S POWER STEERING WENT OUT ON HER VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENED A DAY AFTER OUR TRIP TO ATLANTA, GA. WE TOOK IT TO OUR LOCAL GMC DEALERSHIP AND WAS NOTIFIED THAT 4 MODULES HAD TO BE REPLACED AND A RECOMMENDED WIRING HARNESS. IN 2015 GMC VEHICLES HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE AND RECALL BUT NOT THE 2016. THIS COST ME $1400 IN REPAIRS.
