2017 GMC Yukon Exterior Lighting

TAIL AND BRAKE LIGHT NO LONGER WORKING

MY DRIVERS SIDE BRAKE LIGHTS RARELY COME ON. IF I HIT A BUMP THEY COME ON FOR A SECOND.

INTERMITTENTLY DEFECTIVE TAIL / BRAKE LIGHT. LED CIRCUIT BREAKS. KNOWN ISSUE. DEALER WANTS $800 TO FIX.. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR TAIL LAMPS WERE INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MANDAL BUICK GMC (11290 MANDAL PKWY, D'IBERVILLE, MS 39540). THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL AND ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE DEALER QUOTED A COST OF $760 TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000.

WITHOUT WARNING, RIGHT REAR TAILLIGHT STOPS WORKING. THIS IS FOR OPERATING AND STOPPING. APPARENTLY, THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS...SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD FOR A KNOWN PART WITH PROBLEMS.

PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE AND TAIL LIGHT QUIT WORKING TOOK TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAD FIXED IT AND HAD NOT. TOOK BACK TO THEM AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T GET ONE IT'S ON BACK ORDER. AFTER LOOKING INTO IT MYSELF IT SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THAT GM ISN'T DOING ANYTHING TO FIX BUT PUT THE SAME LIGHTS BACK IN THAT WILL FAIL AGAIN. I'VE ASKED ABOUT AN UPDATED LIGHT THAT WOULDN'T FAIL AGAIN AND THE DEALERSHIP SEEMS TO HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE LIGHTS AT ALL. GM NEEDS TO STEP UP AND FIX THE THIS ISSUE AS IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM.

DRIVERS SIDE LED BRAKE LIGHT DOES NOT FUNCTION. VEHICLE HAS 52,000 MILES. KNOWN DEFECT YET GMC DOES NOT OFFER REPAIR. REQUIRES $800 LIGHT ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT.

DRIVERS SIDE LED BRAKE LIGHT STRIP INOP. DEALER SAYS ITS 650 PER SIDE PLUS LABOR TO REPLACE. GMC IS AWARE OF ISSUE BUT WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THERE PRODUCT. THEY ALSO LIE AND SAY IT'S THE FIRST THEY HAVE HEARD OF THIS TYPE OF FAILURE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND CUSTOMER IS LIABLE FOR A TICKET THAT MAY RESULT FROM FAULTY GM PARTS.

THE REAR PASSENGER LIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS FAILED. NO LIGHTS WITHIN THE HOUSING ARE CURRENTLY WORKING. THE UNSAFE CONDITION EXISTS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, AS IT HAS NO RUNNING LIGHTS, BRAKE LIGHTS OR TURN SIGNALS. THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR YUKON'S OF THIS YEAR, WHICH ARE STILL FAIRLY NEW.

THE GMC YUKON MODELS IN ALL TRIMS, HAVE FAULTY LED STRIPS THAT CAUSE THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO FAIL ON THE LEFT, AND RIGHT BRAKE LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THE FRUSTRATING PART IS IT WORKS INTERMITTENTLY, AND WHEN IT'S OFF A SLIGHT TAP WILL MOMENTARILY BRING IT BACK ON FOR THE DURATION OF THE JOLT. THIS LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT IT'S FAULTY CONNECTION INSIDE THE SEALS BRAKE LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ON OWNER FORUMS OF GMC YUKON'S . THIS IS KNOWN AS THE NEW YEAR MODELS 18-19 ARE NOT HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

DRIVING FROM PRESCOTT, AZ TO PHOENIX, AZ WITH MY HUSBAND AND 3 YEAR OLD SON. WE WERE HEADING EAST ON SR-69 WHEN WE WERE PULLED OVER. WE WERE INFORMED THAT OUR PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WAS NON-OPERATIONAL. AFTER INSPECTION IT WAS FOUND THAT TURN SIGNAL AND HAZARD LIGHTS WORKED BUT NOT BREAK. A REPAIR ORDER WAS ISSUED. WE TOOK IT TO THE GMC DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE WHOLE TAIL/BRAKE LIGHT HOUSING, WIRE, AND POTENTIALLY THE FUSE NEEDED REPLACED AND THAT IT WOULD COST $700. WE WERE ALSO TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT A THEY HAVE HAD SEVERAL GMC YUKON OWNERS COME IN WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND THAT IT WAS A PART MALFUNCTION THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE COVERED BY OUT WARRANTY.

REAR PASSENGER TAIL LIGHT FAILURE. TAIL LIGHT FAILS PREMATURELY WITHOUT ANY MEANS TO WARN DRIVER SHORT OF DIRECT OBSERVATION. PROBLEM KNOWN TO GMC GIVEN HIGH NUMBER OF FAILURES AND COMPLAINTS OF PREMATURE FAILURES. TAIL LIGHT IS EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE.

2017 YUKON (ONLY BEEN IN USE FOR 19 MONTHS) DS BRAKELIGHT ASSEMBLY (RED LED OUTTER RING) STOPPED WORKING.

TAIL LIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY WORK. DEALER CLAIMS FULL TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY REQUIRED TO FIX (AT ~$850) AND NOT COVERED BY ANY WARRANTY. HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF SIMILAR PROBLEM. SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOPS POST FIXES TO SOLUTION BY MELTING PLASTIC HOUSING AND CONNECTING METAL PIECES ON CIRCUIT BOARD ASSEMBLY THAT BREAK (THIS IS JUST A THIN METAL PLATE THAT WAS POORLY DESIGNED AND CRACKS AT A SIMILAR POINT FREQUENTLY. I THINK THIS IS A FAULTY DESIGN THAT EXPOSES MANY CUSTOMER ERA TO GREAT RISK AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY GMC. PLEASE LOOK INTO IT. CAR IS IN MOTION, STATIONARY OR TURNING WHEN HAPPENS. BRAKE LIGHTS ARE LIGHT THAT IS IMPACTED.

PULLED OVER BY POLICE FOR MALFUNCTIONING LHR BRAKE LIGHT. ENTIRE REAR LAMP ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED SINCE IT IS AN INTEGRATED CIRCUIT BOARD WITH LED LAMPS. $700 PLUS INSTALLATION. SEVERAL VICTIMS ON-LINE DISCUSSION FORUMS.
