Read led brake lights are intermittently not working. Because they are a sealed unit, cannot change the bulb, need to replace entire assembly. Dealer is quoting $831 per assembly to replace, for a total of $1662. GM is refusing to address this safety concern because the car is just over 4K miles over warranty mileage. I have been notified by other drivers on the road that my brake lights are not working. This is an expensive repair just to "replace the bulbs". there are third party services that repair this common problem with these units: www.ledfix.com/yukontaillightrepair.html https://www.yukontaillightrepair.com/ other GMC owners with the same problem: Https://www.carcomplaints.com/GMC/Yukon/2015/lights/taillight_not_working_properly.shtml attached is a copy of my service invoice with the dealers quote. I have already contacted GM twice about this. The reference number for each call are 8-4782652601 and 9-4950899453. How is this issue not a recall" what needs to be done to get GM to replace these faulty tail light assemblies" thank you.
Both the driver and passenger brake lights are not functioning at all. Because it is an led lamp, the entire tail lamps assembly requires replacement at a significant cost.
GMC Yukon 2016 rear lights are defective. This is the 2nd time they have gone out and it is not a quick fix to replace.

Rear tail light seems to work intermittent. When the temperature goes up it does not work, cool down it works. My Yukon is only 2 years old, I thought led last longer, that is a big joke. To replace it at the dealers would be $803 for a tail light. That is highway robbery. The dealership needs to look into this to see why there are so many problems from other individuals. I will think twice before I purchase another GMC vehicle.
Led tail light/brake light failure. These tail lights on the 2015 to present GMC and Chevrolet SUVS have premature failure. The cost to the public for these lights are around 700$ each to replace. GM needs to recall the taillights or have them warranted for the life of the vehicle. This creates a safety hazard for drivers and not to mention a possible traffic ticket coupled with the cost associated with the replacement; GM needs to recall these for the shear fact that they cost as much as a house payment just to replace one light.
Passenger side brake light started going out then will go back on and go back out and then it just went out completely the car is less than 2 years old. Bought it brand-new I have been the only owner. There is no reason why a tail light should be going out before the car is even 2 years old.
Rear led brake lights are not working - they work then they don't work it's not consistent - sometimes going out for days. The vehicle is only 2 yrs old and I'm not sure what is causing the malfunction and don't want to pay 700 to replace each light. It is really unsafe to be driving.
Rear tail lights have manufacturer defect and entire panel needs to be fixed as an electrical issue due to lighting failure. Safety issue of brake lights not working and manufacturer needs to repair entire tail light.
Headlights are too dim and do not provide appropriate visibility for safe driving at night, particularly when navigating curvy roads as the lights do not project an adequate distance. Factory bulbs have been replaced with another brand with minimal improvement.
