Stay far away from GMC

2023 GMC Yukon XL Denali 4dr SUV (6.2L 8cyl 10A)
My 5 month old Yukon XL Denali suffered catastrophic engine failure over two weeks ago with only 12,000 miles on it. From the mouth of the service manager at GMC, there is an ‘epedemic’ of complete engine failure, just like mine in the 6.2L engine. I need a complete engine replacement which is on back order nationwide. Funny that they have engines to build new Denali’s to sell to … unsuspecting customers, but refused to provide replacement engines to those have all who have already signed on the dotted line. Run away from GMC. Customer service is nonexistent and they, do nothing to help the consumer after purchase.
They don’t make them like they used to

2022 GMC Yukon XL Denali 4dr SUV 4WD (6.2L 8cyl 10A)
Although these vehicles are beautiful to look at, they definitely don’t make them like they used to. I didn’t even have it 2 full days and the radio and sound throughout the whole vehicle went out. It wouldn’t work again until I shut the car down for the night and tried again the next day. Hasn’t happened again for a few days, but from what I’ve investigated, it’s prone to happen again. … It’s got a few things that I’m not too happy about. Nothing that’s the end of the world, but definitely annoying when you pay 90k for a vehicle.
Don't ever buy one

2023 GMC Yukon XL SLT 4dr SUV 4WD (5.3L 8cyl 10A)
It is junk..most electronic stuff does not work..it's a brand new 2023 Yukon xl and I am having issues on day two..lights are poor..transmission is rough..suspension is like my 20 year old truck that I just scrapped..the dealer doesn't give a crap and service department just ignores you saying it shouldn't be like that but can't fix it..call me and I'll tell you all the issues and for … sure you won't spend a 100,000 dollars on an unreliable stupidly engineered vehicle built by a corporation that doesn't care about anything...[contact info removed]
Disappointed - the roof leaks after 2 years
3 out of 5 starsLinda E., 10/23/2023
2021 GMC Yukon XL AT4 4dr SUV 4WD (5.3L 8cyl 10A)
Bought our 2021 GMC Yukon XL SLT brand spankin’ new off the lot. No complaints until 2 years and 20 days after ownership when the roof leaked on a rainy morning. The water poured into the car through the interior light covers and control panel above the driver and passenger seat. Water also poured in through a lower duct by the driver’s left leg. GMC would not allow a warranty on it. We … give thumbs down to GMC and Chevrolet products. It’s no wonder so many people buy foreign cars —- they are better quality than American cars. 👎🏼GMC👎🏼
