2015 GMC Denali Problems

BOTH BACK BRAKE LIGHT WORK INCONSISTANTLY. WHILE MOVING AND AT A COMPLETE STOP. LOCAL DEALERSHIP CHARGES AT MIN 1200 PER LIGHT TO FIX. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE DENALI'S.

BOTH BREAKLIGHTS NO LONGER WORK DUE TO FAULTY ELECTRICAL PANEL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC DENALI. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTED AND WAS UNABLE TO UPSHIFT INTO THE HIGHER GEARS. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER STERLING BUICK GMC (5853 FRONTAGE RD. I 49 SOUTH, OPELOUSAS, LA 70570, (337) 942-3516) AND MADE THE DEALER AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED AS OF YET. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 148,000.

VEHICLE SEEMS TO BE STUCK IN 4WD, UNABLE TO SWITCH OUT OF IT. CANNOT TURN VEHICLE.

REAR DEFROSTER STARTED EMITTING SMOKE, OVERHEATED AND CRACKED REAR WINDSHIELD. PLEASE SEE EXISTING RECALL N192220470. ALTHOUGH VEHICLE NOT LOCATED IN CANADA, CAN ASSURE YOU THIS IS HAPPENING IN UNITED STATES AS WELL. *TR

WHILE THANKFULLY DRIVING IN THE SLOW LANE ON THE INTERSTATE IN ST. LOUIS MY STABILITY LIGHT CAME ON THE TRUCK THEN SLOWED DOWN ON ITS OWN THEN WENT INTO FOUR-WHEEL-DRIVE THEN REVVED UP TO 6000 RPMS THEN EVERY SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON ON THE DASH WHEN PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD THE CAR THEN WOULD NOT DRIVE FORWARD IT STAYED IN NEUTRAL REGARDLESS OF GEARSHIFTING IT THEN BEGAN TO CYCLE THROUGH ALL OF THE SERVICE REQUEST FOR THE VEHICLE. AFTER HAVING TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP WHICH WAS THREE HOURS AWAY FROM MY HOUSE THEY INFORMED ME THE FOLLOWING MORNING THE POWER STEERING CONTROL GEARBOX HAD WENT OUT AND FRIED ALL THE ELECTRICAL'S INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 39,000 MILES AFTER CONTACTING GMC THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO THAT THERE WAS NOTHING ON A RECALL LIST FOR MY VEHICLES VIN NUMBER. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I SAW THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR A VERY SIMILAR SITUATION IN 2018 IN SEPTEMBER. I HAVE VIDEOS OF THE VEHICLE COMPUTER SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONING IF REQUESTED. I JUST WANTED TO DOCUMENT AND FILE A COMPLAINT SO THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN TO SOMEONE ELSE AND CAUSE A SERIOUS WRECK , SINCE GMC HAS FAILED TO RECOGNIZE THIS SERIOUS OF AN ISSUE.

THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIME IN THE CITY CROSSING AN INTERSECTION USUALLY AT SLOW SPEED BRAKING AND TURNING AND ALL THE SUDDEN I LOSE EVERYTHING. NO STEERING ELECTRICAL AND BRAKING. THE PARK ASSIST WILL SOMETIMES START GOING OFF LIKE CRAZY JUST BEFORE IT HAPPENS, BUT NOT ALL THE TIME. PUT IN PARK AND OPEN THE DOOR IT COMES BACK ON. THEN SAYS ROLL DOWN DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW AND THEN BACK UP. AT ON TIME I DID HAVE IT HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS GETTING READY TO PASS AND GIVING IT GAS AND EVERYTHING SHUT DOWN FOR A SPLIT SECOND AND THEN TOOK OFF AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED.

INTERMITTENT POWER STEERING FAILURE TURNING AT LOW SPEEDS. ALMOST HIT A CAR WHILE TURNING IN A ROAD DUE TO LACK OF POWER STEERING WORKING PROPERLY.

BOTH LED BRAKE LIGHTS HAVE FAILED. IF YOU TAP THEM THEY WOK FOR A MINUTE BUT WHEN DRIVING THEY GO OUT AGAIN. THE SEAT VIBRATES TO ALERT YOU OF OBSTACLES BUT THE MOTOR IN THE SEAT ONLY WORK PERIODICALLY. THE REAR WINDOW WIPER HAS FAILED. THE YUKON HAS BEEN DRIVEN 3 YEARS AND 50K MI AND NOW NEEDS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN REPAIRS BECAUSE OF THE DEFECTIVE PARTS USED.
