What 977 owners told NHTSA about the 2015 GMC Yukon Denali Xl 1500

THERE WAS A RECALL FOR LOW BREAK FAILURE IT WAS RECALL 19V645. I HAD THIS DONE LAST YEAR AND TODAY I ALMOST HIT A CAR IN THE DRIVE THROUGH SIDE THE BRAKES ARE STILL DOING THE SAME THING GOING TO THE FLOOR. THEY NEED TO REPLACE THE FAULTY VACUUM PUMP. I EXPERIENCE THIS WHILE BACKING OUT AND STOPPING AT SLOW SPEEDS.

THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIME IN THE CITY CROSSING AN INTERSECTION USUALLY AT SLOW SPEED BRAKING AND TURNING AND ALL THE SUDDEN I LOSE EVERYTHING. NO STEERING ELECTRICAL AND BRAKING. THE PARK ASSIST WILL SOMETIMES START GOING OFF LIKE CRAZY JUST BEFORE IT HAPPENS, BUT NOT ALL THE TIME. PUT IN PARK AND OPEN THE DOOR IT COMES BACK ON. THEN SAYS ROLL DOWN DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW AND THEN BACK UP. AT ON TIME I DID HAVE IT HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS GETTING READY TO PASS AND GIVING IT GAS AND EVERYTHING SHUT DOWN FOR A SPLIT SECOND AND THEN TOOK OFF AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED.

MAJOR SAFETY ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE. ANOTHER 2015 YUKON WITH NO TAIL OR STOP LIGHTS. I'M OVER MILLAGE ON SPECIAL RECALL. THERE SHOULD BE NO TIME/MILLAGE ISSUE ON THIS. SEAT BELTS LOCK UP. BRAKES ARE EITHER GOOD OR MUSSY WHENEVER THEY WANT TO BE. HARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE. ALSO WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IT WOULD COMPLETELY DIE (NO LIGHTS MOTOR DIED, NO POWER STEERING, NO AIR BAGS, NO RADIO NOTHING AT ALL ON THE X-WAY AT 70 MPH) AND THE DEALER COULD NOT REPAIR IT! RUST ON FRAME RAILS. (AND MORE).

MY PASSENGER SIDE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY NEED TO BE REPLACED AS THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING. THIS HAS BECOME A COMMON PROBLEM AS EVIDENCED BY THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS FILED ON YOUR SITE FOR THE SAME ISSUE. LACK OF PROPERLY FUNCTIONING TAIL LIGHTS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED. *TR

I BOUGHT MY GMC YUKON IN MARCH OF 2019 ABOUT A WEEK LATER I HAD PEOPLE INFORM ME MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING. I WOULD CHECK AT NIGHT AND THEY WOULD. A FEW MONTHS LATER I NOTICED IT MYSELF, THEY WOULD WORK ONE MINUTE BUT NOT THE NEXT. DECEMBER OF 2019 I GET A LETTER FROM GMC STATING THEY KNOW 2015 MODEL GMC YUKON VEHICLES MAY HAVE A CONDITION WHERE THE BRAKE LIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY DO NOT ILLUMINATE. I COULD HAVE IT DONE IF MY SUV WAS NOT OVER 72K MILES BUT IT WAS WHEN I BOUGHT IT. SO THAT DOESN'T HELP ME AND THEY WANT $2K TO FIX IT. I CALLED TO SEE WHAT THEY COULD DO AND THEY TOLD ME THIS WASN'T A SAFETY ISSUE. IF THEY DO WORK AND SOMEONE DOESN'T SEE I AM BRAKING, MY KIDS OR FAMILY ARE IN THE BACK SEAT, HOW IS THAT NOT SAFETY RELATED? THEY NEED TO MAKE THIS A RECALL! *TR

BOTH LED BRAKE LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. THEY WERE BOTH REPLACED BY THE DEALERSHIP. NOW APPROXIMATELY 7 MONTHS LATER THE PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHT HAS STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE PART, WHICH COST $700.00 EACH SIDE, AND HAS FAILED TWICE IN YEAR. FROM A SIMPLE SEARCH ON THE INTERNET THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR GMC YUKON'S AND DENALI'S BUT THERE IS NOT A RECALL FOR THIS FAILURE. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE A FAULTY DESIGN. THE SOLDER CONNECTION PREMATURELY BREAKS AND CAUSES THE LED BRAKE LIGHTS TO NOT WORK. *TR

NHTSA ODI 11326422

THE BRAKE LIGHT IS NOT WORKING. ALL OTHER FUNCTIONS IN THE ASSEMBLY ARE FINE. REVERSE AND TURN SIGNAL, NO BRAKE INDICATION. IT DOES NOT ACTIVATE A WARNING ON THE DASH FOR THE BRAKE LIGHT FAILURE. THIS HAPPENS 24/7... THIS SHOULD NOT OCCUR WITH AN ITEM PRICED AT OVER $700.00 TO REPLACE. *TR

I PURCHASED BY VEHICLE IN THE SUMMER OF 2015. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP NUMEROUS TIMES FOR VARIOUS ISSUES, MOSTLY ELECTRICAL INVOLVING THE COMPUTER AND SOFTWARE, OR ISSUES INVOLVING MY TIRES OR STEERING WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL.. MY "DRIVER ASSIST" HAS MALFUNCTIONED MANY TIMES AND I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE SHOP TO HAVE IT REPAIRED ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS. LAST SUMMER MY FRONT AND REAR LIGHTS STARTED FLICKERING AND STOPPED WORKING. I SPENT $800 FOR THE BACK PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHT AND ALMOST $1000 FOR THE FRONT DRIVER HEAD LIGHT ASSEMBLY. I ALSO HAD TO GET A NEW BATTERY FOR THIS VEHICLE. MY 2015 GMC YUKON XL IS NOW MALFUNCTIONING AGAIN AND THIS TIME, I AM TOLD THAT THE SEAT MOTOR (THAT ALERTS YOU WHEN YOU ARE NEAR AN OBSTACLE HAS BURNED OUT.) ABOUT 4 DAYS AGO, I BECAME AWARE OF TICKING NOISE WHILE MY CAR HAS BEEN IDLE. I IMMEDIATELY SCHEDULED A MAINTENANCE APPOINTMENT. TODAY, I AM ALSO INFORMED THAT MY "LIFTERS" ARE BAD ON THE VEHICLE AND MY ENGINE IS GOING BAD. I AM TOLD THE AIR CONDITIONING CONDENSER HAS BURNED OUT, I AM TOLD THE MOTOR UNDER MY SEAT IS BURNED OUT. I HAVE PERFORMED ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, I GET OIL CHANGES REGULARLY AND USE HIGH QUALITY SYNTHETIC OILS. I TAKE MY CAR TO THE SHOP AT LEAST 2X PER YEAR FOR PROBLEMS AND SOME MAJOR REPAIR IS ALWAYS REQUIRED. THIS IS A CAR THAT I AM GOING INTO THE 5TH YEAR OF OWNERSHIP THIS SUMMER. ORIGINALLY. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR BRAKES, NOW I AM TOLD THERE IS NOT, BUT I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN FOR VARIOUS RECALLS AT LEAST 3X. THIS IS AN UNSAFE, DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. EVERY SYSTEM FAILS. I AM NOW IN SEARCH OF A NEW VEHICLE. I HAVE DRIVEN OTHER GM VEHICLES (GRAND AM, HUMMER) AND NONE HAVE REQUIRED SO MUCH REPAIR COSTS. TODAY I AM TOLD THAT IT WILL COST $6800 TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE TO MAKE IT SAFE. MY REPAIR RECORDS WILL SHOW THE REPAIRS AND SERVICE CHARGES I HAVE PAID SINCE PURCHASE. THIS IS A LEMON. *TR

TAIL LAMPS WOULD INTERMITTENTLY OPERATE. AT TIMES NONE WOULD WORK AT OTHERS SOME WOULD WORK. AND OTHERS ALL WOULD WORK. GMC FINALLY ADDRESSES THIS WITH: N182180270 (SPECIAL COVERAGE). GMC WAS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE ON OR PRIOR TO NOVEMBER 26, 2019. THEY STATED NOTIFICATIONS TO CUSTOMERS WOULD BEGIN ON DECEMBER 12, 2019. I WAS NOTIFIED TODAY 2-12-2020 WELL AFTER GMC WAS AWARE OF ISSUES. GMC ALLOWS FOR WARRANTY OF 6 YEARS AFTER PLACED IN SERVICE OR 72,000 MILES. SINCE MY VEHICLE HAD 902 MILES AT TIME OF PURCHASE MY WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 72,902 MILES. HAD GMC MADE ME AWARE IN DECEMBER OR TOO AFTER KNOWING IN LATE NOV 2019 I WOULD STILL HAVE BEEN UNDER WARRANTY FOR A RESOLUTION TO FIX ISSUES. THERE WILLFUL NEGLIGENCE IN FAILING TO NOTIFY ME HINDERED THEIR AVAILABLE WARRANTY UNDER SPECIAL COVERAGE OF NO USE TO ME TO MY DETRIMENT OF SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS (~$1800 USD).

THE BRAKE AND TAIL LIGHTS ON THIS GMC YUKON ONLY RANDOMLY LIGHT UP. HAVE BEEN TOLD RANDOM TIMES BY OTHER MOTORIST THAT BRAKE OR TAIL LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING ON HIGHWAY. I'VE CONTACTED GM MULTIPLE TIMES ON PHONE AND AT DEALER AND THEY WANT ME TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE. THEY FINALLY SENT A LETTER OUT TODAY NOTING THERE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT STILL WANT FIX MINE BECAUSE IT'S OVER 72K ON YUKON. SAFETY HAS NO MILEAGE LIMIT AND GM NEEDS TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS. GOOGLE THIS ISSUE AND YOU WILL SEE THE INTERNET IS FULL OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT GM LED BRAKE AND TAIL LIGHTS GOING BAD. THANKS FOR ANY HELP WITH THIS MATTER.

TAIL LAMPS, TAIL LAMPS TAIL LAMPS! NON SERVICEABLE LED ILLUMINATION BULB CIRCUIT IS FAULTY LEADING TO INTERMITTENT OPERATION. HAVING PART TIME BRAKE LIGHT IS AGAINST THE LAW AND MORE IMPORTANT TO ME, LEAVES MY FAMILY IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION. WEB SEARCH LEADS TO MANY MOTORIST HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS I. AS A PAYING TAXPAYER WE SHOULD NOT BE SOLD FAULTY GOODS THAT MAY HAVE DIRE CONSEQUENCES.

MY VEHICLE HAS SUFFERED FROM POOR SLOW SPEED BRAKING SINCE IT WAS NEW. I WAS TOLD THIS IS JUST A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN I POINTED OUT THIS PROBLEM AGAIN, I WAS TOLD THAT GM RECOMMENDS REPLACING THE VACUUM PUMP, BUT SINCE I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. AFTER NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS AND COMPLAINTS TO THE NHTSA, GM ISSUE A RECALL. THE RECALL DID NOT CALL FOR REPLACING THE VACUUM PUMP AS GM HAD PREVIOUSLY REQUESTED, AND INSTEAD DID A SOFTWARE UPDATE. I JUST HAD THIS RECALL PERFORMED, AND THE BRAKES ARE NOW WORSE THAN EVER BEFORE. TODAY, I WAS PULLING INTO A CARWASH, AND WHEN I HIT THE BRAKES, THEY WERE HARD AS A ROCK AND WOULD NOT STOP MY VEHICLE. I ALMOST HIT THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. I HAD TO WARN THE PERSON AT THE CARWASH TO BE CAREFUL THAT THE BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. AFTER HE MOVED MY VEHICLE, HE SAID THAT HE NEW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. THIS SITUATION CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS. IT MAY CAUSE YOU TO STRIKE THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU. IF THERE IS A PERSON BETWEEN YOU AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU, SUCH AS A CARWASH, THEY MAY BE CRUSHED BETWEEN THE TWO VEHICLES. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS ONLY AT LOW SPEED SUCH AS PARKING LOTS OR IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN OCCURING SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NEW. IT IS NOW WORSE AFTER HAVING THE RECALL PERFORMED TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. THE MOST RECENT OCCURENCE WAS TODAY.

ANYTIME THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING THE FUMES FROM THE EXHAUST MAKE ME AND MY KIDS FEEL NAUSEOUS AND GIVING HEADACHES JUST FROM WALKING TO/AROUND THE TRUCK TO GET IN. WE ARE TAKING THIS TRUCK TO THE DEALER ON MONDAY. BEING THE 3RD DEALER WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO IN THE PAST YEAR. HAVE HAD MANY OTHER ISSUES OUT OF THIS VEHICLE AND JUST CANT SEEM TO GET THEM ALL FIXED. FOR SUCH A PRICEY VEHICLE YOU WOULDNT THINK THERE WOULD BE THIS MANY PROBLEMS. THE LIFT GATE IS POPPING NOT WANTING TO OPEN OR SHUTS ON YOU AS YOU WALK UNDER IT. THE WINDOW APPLIQUES ARE JUST SLOWLY FLYING OFF 1 BY 1. TRANSMISSION IS HARD SHIFTING IN LOW GEARS, DURING ACCELERATION AND DECELERATION. WE HAVE A HORRIBLE GRINDING/SQUEAKING NOISE IN THE FRONT THAT YOU CAN FEEL IN THE FLOOR BOARDS. THE BRAKES, WE HAD A MODULE REPLACED, BUT IT STILL FEELS AS IF WHEN PUSHING THE PEDAL IT LOOSES PRESSURE, CAUSING NEAR ACCIDENTS. THIS IS INSANE!!!!!! BOOUGHT THIS TRUCK JUST OVER A YEAR AGO AND HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!

NHTSA ODI 11279279

I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF A RECALL ON THE VACUUM PUMP THAT CONTROLS THE BRAKES. MY BRAKES WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT WARNING. BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND OF COURSE THEY ONLY COVERED THE RECALIBRATION OF THE VACUUM PUMP BUT NOT THE VACUUM PUMP ITSELF. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS AND VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR THAT I FEEL GMC SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR IN FULL.

WHEN TRAVELING AT LOW SPEEDS, LESS THAN 5 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WILL BECOME HARD TO PUSH AND CAR WILL NOT COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, BUT WILL ROLL TO A STOP. THIS CAN HAPPEN TRYING TO PULL INTO A TIGHT SPOT OR WHILE IN A DRIVE-THRU OR IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC OR SIMPLY YOUR OWN GARAGE OR BACKING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY OR FOUR WAY STOP, THE LIST CAN GO ON AND ON. IT HAPPENS ON A DAILY BASIS. I TOOK TO THE CERTIFIED DEALER TO HAVE THE RECALL PERFORMED BUT APPARENTLY THE RECALL WILL NOT WORK ON MY VEHICLE AS THE VACUUM PUMP NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED WAS OCT 2018 AND HAD ABOUT 80K MILES ON IT. IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. IT IS A 2015 YUKON AND SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. IT IS RIDICULOUS THAT GMC IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT WANTS TO NOT RECALL FOR THE PART TO BE REPLACED BUT HAVE ANYONE HAVING THE PROBLEM COME IN AND SEE IF THE SOFTWARE UPDATE WILL TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM. THEN AT THAT TIME LETS CHARGE THE CUSTOMER WELL OVER $600 TO HAVE THE PUMP REPLACED INSTEAD OF MAKING IT RIGHT BY THE CUSTOMERS. I WILL BE TAKING MY CAR ELSE WHERE TO HAVE THE PART REPLACED FOR HALF THE COST TO ME. THIS HAS BEEN A WASTE OF TIME AND I COULD HAD TAKEN ELSE WHERE TO BEGIN WITH MONTHS AGO, IF I WOULD HAD KNOWN THE TYPE OF RECALL THAT GMC WOULD BE GIVING. WHEN YOU PAY MORE THAN $60K FOR A VEHICLE THESE TYPE OF PROBLEMS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN.

WHEN DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS I LOSE BREAKING POWER. IT TAKES BOTH FEET PRESSING AS HARD AS I CAN TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. I HAVE NEARLY HIT TWO CARS WHILE PARKING AND SEVERAL IN TRAFFIC WHILE IN RUSH HOUR. IT FEELS AS THOUGH I LOSE VACUUM. IF I INCREASE THE RPM'S ON THE VEHICLE I REGAIN VACUUM. USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN PARKING.
