Very Reliable

This truck has always run very well and I have performed routine maintenance since I purchased it. I use synthetic motor oil and transmission fluid. With 203,000 miles it still runs quiet in the city and highway. I get 19 mpg highway and 14 mpg city. We have thought about getting rid of it but it is now a great third vehicle that serves many purposes.

We bought our Yukon brand new; just off the truck. We had to go looking for it, because they were new on the market and everyone was wanting one. We have never regreted it. They do not make the 2dr type any more, it is a classic. I have received numerous compliements on the great sporty look it has. It has been extremely reliable and fun to drive. It has leather interior and still a nice looking vehicle. I was hit from behind once and the Yukon was tough and did not sustain much damage even though the lady that hit me with a Suburban had tremendous damage.

Over all this has been the best truck i have ever owned. It has major potential to be anything that you want it to be. Great porformance and great towing. Very easy to see and handles like a car. I cant resist to upgrade and soup up the engine. Overall it is a truck with major potential. My yukon has 165,000 miles on it and still no problems. Sounds great with 40 series flowmasters.

Purchased the Yukon new between X-Mas & New Year '94. Best vehicle we've ever owned. While the gas mileage isn't great at 15 MPG the maintenance has been nil. I track cost per mile on maintenance and repair and this is, by far, the best rig we'ver ever owned. As an example, until 80K miles our repair cost totaled $140.00 (an electrical switch). Had a choice of a company car, any American made vehicle, I chose another Yukon. Americans can build great vehicles and this is one.

My experience has been excellent. The Yukon has been a dependable workhorse with a minimum of problems. And the problems were worked out very well by the dealer.

Prior to my possesion, the trans. just basically collapsed. I had the entire trans. replaced & i haven't had any trouble with it since. The space is above and beyond. Recently I went to go pick up a Double-size mattress. I wasn't quite sure if I would fit, but I took the risk, and sure enough, both the box springs and mattress fit perfectly!

@233605 Original miles I am some what satisfied, except for transmission issues, on a recent trip out of state to Texas from Idaho, I and wife rented a vehicle because the 95 gmc Yukon we own was manufactured for speeds of 65 mph, the new highway speeds are 80 mph and I didn't want to risk loosing an engine, so I opted to rent which isn't the problem, before we left, I pulled both batteries from my 78 Chevy and my wife's 95 gmc Yukon, since we were going to be gone for 2 weeks I figured, if you were going to steal our vehicles from our drive way, you car thieves had better bring a battery, when we came back, both trucks were there, I reinstalled both batteries and they both started, shortly after that we drove our vehicles to and from work, and my wife informed me that vehicle transmission has a rough engagement from first to second, after I explained this situation to a transmission shop, and had it serviced 12 quarts tranny fluid and filter, I figured that would solve the problem, the problem wasn't servicing, what actually happened when I removed the Battery, the main battery charges the small battery in the ECM, which stores all the parameters of the engine and transmission, I got lucky and found a automotive electric shop for older cars, and what needs to be brought to lite is the ECM had be re flashed to install the original memory, and that would solve the problem, which it did and every thing shifted smoothly, but now im dealing with the reverse on the transmission its slow to engage, so back to the drawing board, but for all those that want to keep there older vehicles, i give you fair warning, parts are becoming hard to find, the parts that are available are not meeting American Standards, Former President Bill Clintons NAFTA allowed American auto parts to be made over seas in foreign countries, and American's are getting junk in the box, even the new cars are getting junk, A prime example. AC DELCO is a subsidiary of GM, and when I watch our mechanic install 3 BRAND NEW AC DELCO ALTENATORS for my wife's 95 GMC YUKON, rite out of the box, the first 3 wouldn't hold charge finally the 4th one did. I know eventually I will need to replace the transmission my only hope is it I get a new one will it be made in America with American made parts or am I going to get a transmission casing with foreign made parts in side. My fingers are crossed. Good luck American's and happy hunting for American made parts. Thanks Rick

I bought this vehicle new, after it sat in the dealer's lot for a year. The replacement of various gaskets and severe corrosion in ignition coil have only been my high price maintenance items. In all, I have spent about $6,000 maintaining this vehicle over its first 80,000 miles.

Intake Manifold Gasket

I bought my truck because it had a completely new engine due to an intake manifold gasket failure. To my chagrin, I've replaced that same suspect gasket 3 more times. It's a design flaw, which GM is happy to exploit.

I bought my yukon with 50,000 miles. It has a diesel engine. I now have 150,000 + miles, with exception of about $3000 in up keep (seals, idler arms, etc...) I have not had many problems.
