2021 GMC Yukon SLT 4dr SUV 4WD (5.3L 8cyl 10A)

Great vehicle when it's not in the shop. There is a known issue with the 5.3L and 6.2L engine lifters that cause bent rods and engine failure. The fanboys will tell you this is an isolated occurance...it's not. This mainly effects Yukons built before April 1st 2021. Problem is mine was built after that date and has the same issue. The forums give a very grim view of GM's ability to fix this issue as "fixed" engines have also failed. I still love my Yukon, I just don't trust it anymore after if left me stranded and it had to be towed.

2022 GMC Yukon Denali 4dr SUV 4WD (6.2L 8cyl 10A)
11 of 11 people found this review helpful
Purchased a 2022 Denali new for traveling and it drives well at highway speeds. Around town I don't enjoy driving it as much. Engine stutters at a stoplight. No reason found and a common complaint. Drivers seat with unusual wear at 20K miles worse than any other leather seat vehicle I have owned in 30 years. GM cannot find the water leak coming from the roof or welds or rails?? No loaner and they have had it twice and declared it fixed. Still leaks. One month so far. Tech worked well at first but now has weird glitches that pop up now telling me something isn't available now (lane keeping etc). Once the engine is shut off then restarted it functions again. Nav has frozen in place during a trip in the same way. I am really disappointed in this vehicle after all the research for a safe large SUV for highway driving and hauling in snow, etc. Prior Ford Expedition was much better. Still trying to get things fixed through GM. Update. Been 6 times to dealer out of service 60-90 days. Dealer can’t find the leak. GMC of no help either. I take it to GM dealer and it sits on the lot. They don’t even look at it anymore. No loaner car available. Definitely Not professional grade. No loaner car available ever at any of these times. Very dissatisfied with GMC. 2 years now of water leaking in to fill cup holders etc. how they can’t find it I really don’t understand. At 30K miles I have traded it and did so with full disclosure. Tried lemon law attorneys who didn’t help. It meets well beyond lemon law regulations. This is the second GMC Yukon I have had issues with. Customer care would tell me they were going to elevate to a manager and instead they gave me a new customer care representative every week it was out of service sitting at the dealer. Two separate dealerships would not help. I looked and was amazed at all the issues on GM vehicles at various websites like carcomplaints.com. Buyer beware.

Engine Failure at 9000 Miles

The Yukon was originally delivered with a cracked windshield. Then at 3000 miles a light came up because there was apparently next to no oil. So, not a great start... Today, at 9000 miles, it left us stranded in the middle of the road. Engine would not fire. Tow truck driver saud they've been towing the new Yukon left and right lately. GM charges Mercedes pricing with none of the quality and certainly none of the benefits and perks.

Not as good as expected

The battery died after 3 months/2500 miles, but it wasn't obvious that was the problem. IT TOOK GM ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE 2 DAYS AND DOZENS OF PHONE CALLS TO GET IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. THEIR "MIDDLE MAN" IN INDIA AND THE TOW COMPANIES THEY USE ARE HORRIBLE. One tow company "partner" they called twice, hid the key without telling anyone, I had to drive an hour to take a key fob to the vehicle, lied to me repeatedly, and never did tow the car. It's a long ugly story. The US based GM Roadside Assistance people were all very nice, but unable to do better. Afterwards I couldn't tell anybody really cared. The plastic cargo liners on the back of the third seat fell off and wouldn't stay on the third day we had it. Runs good, but not as strong as the '17 Yukon Denali it replaced, with same engine and horsepower. The ride is much better than the '17.

Do not purchase until issues are worked out

2021 GMC Yukon SLT 4dr SUV (5.3L 8cyl 10A)

I purchase new vehicles often. I’ve had every make/model car you can own. So I decided to try a Yukon GMC for first time. Issues every other day. Car wouldn’t fire, car broken into and no windows in stock to replace, 3rd row headrests have been out of commission for 6 months. I feel unsafe at this point. In addition, the interior seating is cheaply made and the exterior rear and doors are not even medal. Apple play and wifi frequently miscommunicate and makes radio stations not work. Lights are constantly going off and my video camera stays on 90% of the time thinking I’m hitting something while driving. The electrical system needs to be revamped. Purchased new in July 2020 and already 7 recalls. Dear seatbelts don’t work. This car is a COMPLETE DISASTER . Will never purchase. GMC vehicle again.
