I’ve seen a lot of negative reviews for the 2021 GMC Yukon and as a recent owner I felt that I should post a review myself. We’ve had our 2021 Yukon Denali for 4 weeks now and it has exceeded our expectations. Great ride, fantastic fit and finish (this is coming from a current 2015 Lexus GS350 owner that was assembled in Japan), we’ve had the SUV for 4 weeks and experienced no issues. When we bought the vehicle last month I asked the sales rep about some of the issues that I had read about online and he said that they had seen a few Yukon’s experience issues but it was all software related. If you are looking for a family vehicle with room for adult passengers and rear-facing child car seats there is not a lot of options that check those boxes and allow a driver that is over 6’ tall (like me) to not feel like they have to compromise on front seat leg room. Bottom line, there is a reason GMC and Chevy dealerships can’t keep these things on the lot. Update - 12 months and 8k miles of ownership and still no issues and still loving it.

Drove vehicle on several long trips. Have approximately 5,000 miles on SUV. Have had three recalls, none that noticeably affected vehicle. Large, comfortable interior. Nice turn radius for a large vehicle. Very powerful and excellent acceleration. Many excellent safety features. On a few occasions the speakers have stopped working. So far, after vehicle sits for awhile ( 15-30 minutes), speakers return. Given 4 stars instead of 5 due to recalls and speaker issue.

I've owned more than 15 vehicles, from 7 different manufacturers and this vehicle, by far, is the best I've ever owned! Over 50k miles and other than oil changes and tires (only downside, the Continentals provided were HORRIBLE in rain, replaced with Pirelli Scorpion AS3's and they're great) NO squeaks, rattles, nothing! All electronics working great, just can't say enough good things. I've never owned a vehicle where I've gotten so many compliments. It's the upgraded Cayenne Red with all black interior. Great gas mileage on highway. Local, it is what it is for an almost 8,000lb vehicle. Highly recommend and will buy another!

This vehicle replaced a 2014 buick enclave which I really liked. We have had large vehicles for many years and the new yukon was no problem getting use to. Lots of room and I am so pleased with the diesel. Has plenty of power and the mileage is amazing. First trip from western NC to Shreveport gave us 28 mpg. I don't fully trust the brakes on the vehicle. The petal is very firm like manual brakes. Takes more foot pressure to stop than I have been use to. I would prefer a hand or foot operated emergency brake with range of braking rather than a button that locks all wheels up immediately. I like to shift gears in our mountains at times and the push button transmission makes it more work and no fun. The multiple systems will take time to get use to, but they are a wonder of achievement. The navigation system works great and is very easy to operate. Good ride and lovely to look at.
