Passenger side led taillight assembly is out with only 22,000 miles its past the 3 year warranty period. The dealership is asking approx $700 to replace/repair.
Bought 2015 Yukon in September 17, certified by dealer and June 18 I noticed rear light flickering on driver side. Bought warranty for truck and it's not covered. Dealer says 876$ for one new light. I have read online now where alot of complaints are being made for same issue. Also have exterior black door panel flapping in the wind and dealer says that's not covered under warranty either. Looks like I will be trading this truck in asap
I was pulled over for no brake lights, officer told me he has the same vehicle and that he has the same problem. The brake lights come on and off when ever they want to. Very very unsafe
Rear tail light is out and dealership wants to charge $900 to replace the entire assembly. This vehicle is 3 years old. There is absolutely no reason an led bulb would or should burn out this fast nor should the entire assembly be replaced. GM should be required to recall or replace just the bulbs at cost.
Led tail lights/brake lights not working due to bad circuit boards in the lamp housing when in motion or in park. GM says there is a upgrade kit but they made them where you can not get into them and fix them without replacing the whole unit which runs an average of $650 and up each. Brake lights are a serious safety hazard if they do not work. I have been on many blog sites with hundreds of people experiencing the same issues on the same vehicle. GM should recall them and replace them with the upgrade kit because it is a manufacturing defect and a safety hazard on the road.

Headlight has water condensation in it and dealership says it's a sealed unit so the whole headlight needs replaced and if it happened to the passenger side it's most likely going to happen to the driver side 1 headlight cost $1,200 to replace and labor if GMC knows this is a problem with the 2015 Yukon how come something is not being done about it because $1,200 is not a small amount of money!
Right rear taillight works intermittently. It is an led assembly, no bulbs can be replaced. Only way to repair is to replace total assembly at cost od well over $650. This is a design or product flaw that GM is aware of and should be replace under warranty. They deny there is a problem.
Led taillight is already out - should last for 10+ years, car is out of warranty, dealer charges $750 to replace and can't guarantee it won't happen again. Dealer can't explain why the light is out, says it just happens
Brake light stopped working, GMC wants to replace the whole assembly for $800. My warranty has expired but I think GMC should have away to repair the light instead of replacing the whole assembly. A recall on this shady way of getting the consumer hard earned money. Because it should last longer. I can't drive my car in fear of getting a ticket. Please help
