A little too big

Loved most of the new 2021 Yukon and the ride was smoother than older models, but found it a little bit too big for my needs.

No roof rails available for 2021+ model

If you need roof rack cross rails make sure they come with the car - cannot buy after market at all for 21 model year. (written 5/2021). Dealer told me they were recalled. '21 model uses new clamp-on rails - the look neat but GMC parts not available and no third party parts either -- so if you want a roof rails get cross rails with the car when you buy it or don't buy it!

got a error message to call Sirius Radio - no connection. Connection is fine and radio plays. Took to dealer can't solve the problem, call GMC technical support and told take car to dealer. Will need several hours of testing. Not happy with not being able to get a quick fix for a minor problem.

The Denali trim has everything you could want. Traded from a Lincoln Aviator that had nothing but problems. Highly recommend, have had no issues. Wouldn’t change a thing!

No brakes No battery No CD Player

I purchased my Denali Yukon XL Sept 2020 (ordered vehicle March 2020). Surprisingly, no more CD players. Not everyone is into high tech or uses WiFi. This is a major problem to a lot of consumers who would really prefer to listen to their CD collection instead of the same roll of Sirius music every 12 hours. Upon my purchase, I immediately received Onstar notices that I had two recall on my Denali. To the dealership for repairs and more recalls continued. My biggest complaint at that time was when you would go through a car wash, the poor design does not allow the water to flow away from the vehicle but hangs up (it makes a sound of boiling water) and then it dumps the water once you’ve stopped on your garage floor. The water with soap flows out all over your garage floor once you stop your vehicle. That problem is resurfacing again. More recalls. In October 2021, I drove to Ohio and back (over Friday and back home on Saturday). Sunday I headed out to run errands but on the messsge board of the Denali I was told I had NO brakes; and, I had NO breaks. Can you even imagine what would have happened on either highways or country roads if my brakes failed somewhere on my trip. I called Onstar and had my vehicle towed to the dealership (Ed Martin GMC Indianapolis). They had no idea why no brakes as they started working but they did reboot the computer finally. From the time I picked up my Denali in 2020, odd things would happen with the side mirrors, mostly with the right mirror as it would never stay in the set position. Now, the battery does not hold a charge well. They replaced the battery after it sat on their lot for 32 days, because I received the same email from Onstar stating my battery was dangerous low. Like I didn’t know when they called me stating they replaced the battery and come pick up my vehicle (even when that was a battery issue). Every time I took my vehicle in on some stupid things it was doing, they would waste my time trying to get the vehicle to duplicate the issue and finding nothing wrong. My battery would go low and not charge up to 14. I have asked repeatedly to replace the alternator as if it’s not working correctly, the battery will be called on to try and run all the electronics, etc., things will not work right because the battery cannot stay charged. But, they refuse. Now, I was told to make sure I turn off my Bluetooth before shutting off my vehicle, as it continues searching for a signal. That’s unreal as everything should be turned off but some necessary required items behind the scenes when you shutdown your vehicle. I’ve owned Denalis since 2007 starting with a short one. Purchased others in 2009, 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2021. Though I love the looks of my 2021, I cannot rely on it wondering when it will fail, locally or out of state. Always watching the battery gauge to see if it will charge up to 14, or not. It’s scary.

Major Electrical issues

2021 GMC Yukon Denali 4dr SUV (6.2L 8cyl 10A)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful
Having major electrical issues at 16k miles. It locked me inside the car and all power including onstar shut down completely. All kinds of error alerts to my phone and on the vehicle screen. Vehicle told me to roll down the windows then back up and open the doors then shut them. Power steering alert said “take the wheel”. I have a seriously possessed Yukon Denali 2021. Dealership said they can’t explain it and found 2 wires rubbing together that they think may have triggered it??? I’m afraid to drive this truck!
Super Nice Truck

We have had our Yukon for almost 6 months and 4000 KMs. So far, no issues. What a nice riding SUV. Very smooth, comfortable, and a joy to drive. We live in a cold and snowy climate and the Yukon loves the snow. Eats through it. The lane keep assist is nice on highway drives. Decent cargo space behind the 3rd row. I’m satisfied with the 5.3L. Mean sounding V8. The fuel mileage in cold weather is atrocious, but has improved quite a a bit now that we are getting milder weather. I feel like it’s a good value for what you get for the price.

Not a single dealership repair in 3.5yrs other than overhead console for some recall had done during oil change. Fuel economy around 16.5 with 6.2l but plenty strong. Selected tires smooth but not great traction in the snow. Best vehicle i've owned and i've owned many.
AWESOME COMFORTABLE RELIABLE

My 2021 GMC Yukon is just as comfortable as my 2020 Cadillac Escalade. I would recommend just remember to do the maintenance on time that is the KEY.

Went from a 2017 Chevy Tahoe Premier and I love it. I loved my Tahoe too. The new Sunroof is a fantastic upgrade. Love the extra space behind 3rd row and the cargo area is much flatter. I also appreciate the adjustable 2nd row buckets. My only dislike it how they changed the texting feature. On my previous vehicle, it would pop up with who you had a message from, this one does not. I don't care for the Wireless Carplay because I don't need it.
