Still can’t get it right

I give up. I have owned 6 big GM SUV’s. This was the worst. For starters this vehicle came with Apple care play and a wireless phone charger which was not compatible with Apple products. The rain sensing wipers never worked properly because of poor design and poor sensitivity. The outside thermometer would read 70 degrees when it was 100 outside. The vehicle came with defective leather drivers seat and a 3rd row seat that had to be replaced because of continuous rattle. The backup camera was low resolution and useless at night. The car fell apart just after the warranty expired. The compass broke $1000 to repair. The air conditioner condenser failed $2000. The hepatic seat motor broke. There have been numerous recalls and several known problems from previous design flaws. Replacing the battery was an ordeal. Traded in for a new Jeep months ago and still getting service warnings about new problems on my phone app.

When I first purchased my car, I loved it, but unfortunately before I even hit 70,000 miles, I’ve already had the fuel injection system fully replaced, tons of electrical issues and now have to have the lift valves replaced, which is a $6000 job. There’s also been a problem with the paint which I guess was a part ofa five-year window where GMC and other Brands were putting out cars with faulty paint, had to have it repainted. There are so many problems for a car that has been serviced regularly by the dealer. Not worth the monthly

GMC Yukon XL Denali 2017

My family and I purchased the GMC Yukon XL Denali thinking it would be a good vehicle for the family. We could not have been more wrong. We have owned this vehicle for a little over 4 years now. We have had to replace both rear struts once. That cost us $2,000. We have had to replace the front struts twice. That is about $3,600 in front struts. GM refuses to help us and to fix the problem that is clearly due to their error. Did I mention my front struts are now locked up again and needing to be replaced for a third time? Do not buy a Yukon, run for the hills. It's unfortunate for my family that we had to learn the hard way. I grew up with a father that swore by GM products. But after seeing how they treat us as loyal customers for over 40 years we will never buy another vehicle from them again.

Blown away

Coming from a 2015 Honda Pilot EX-L, the Denali is like moving from the middle of Wisconsin to Abu Dhabi... this thing has it all!! It's a blast to drive and is top notch on comfort. The materials inside the cabin are all soft and pleasing to the eye. The safety features are what really sold us on it. The haptic feedback in the seat warns you of any possible collisions and monitors front, back and sides at all times. I would suggest this vehicle to anyone looking for class and comfort.
