2014 GMC Yukon Body & structure Problems

Owner-reported complaints naming the body or structure system, filed with NHTSA

Data refreshed

Body & structure reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Purchased new 2014 Yukon Denali in February 2015. Currently have 66,000 miles. September 2022: professional repair of the dashboard performed. Separation began June 2022. Separation of dash became larger, 2" to be exact, then the cracks appeared. Then it became noisy with rattling. According to the repair shop this is a common occurrence in some GM vehicles. GMC does not acknowledge this as a recall. February 5, 2021, our passenger side airbag was replaced by a certified GM/Chevrolet Dealership due to recall. Apparently, removal and replacement of airbag can weaken the dashboard. This is an issue I will advise GM of, whether or not it will make any difference.

IT NOW VIBRATES UNCONTROLLABLY DURING ALL DRIVING OVER 15MPH, IS DISTRACTING TO THE DRIVER AND I AM CONCERNED ABOUT ITS EFFECTING THE FUNCTION OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. *TR

PURCHASED VEHICLE 2016 FROM DEALERSHIP. JUST RECENTLY WORKING THE PAST 6 MONTHS STARTED NOTICING CRACKS ON THE DASH. CORNER OF PASSENGER AIRBAG AND ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL AT STEERING WHEEL. I READ ONLINE THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2009-2014 GMC VEHICLES. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE IF AIRBAGS DEPLOY THERE COULD BE SHRAPNEL THROWN IN THE FACE OF DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS. THE DASH SHOULD IT BE DOING THIS IN A 4 YEAR OLD VEHICLE AND FROM WHAT I'VE READ GMC IS NOT WANTING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR MAKING A CHEAP PART. A RECALL SHOULD BE DONE TO MAKE THEM OWN UP TO THEIR PRODUCT. 2015 MODELS HAS A BETTER DASH INSTALLED BECAUSE OF ALL THE COMPLAINTS.

MY COMPLAINT IS THE DASH ON THE THE 2014 YUKON IS CRACKING AT THE AIRBAG AND CAUSING THE DASH TO FLAP AROUND IN THE MIDDLE NEAR THE SPEAKER. FOR A 60K DOLLAR VEHICLE, THIS SEEMS LIKE THE MFG SHOULD REPLACE DUE TO QUALITY. THE DASH COULD CAUSE AIRBAG PUNCTURE AND POSSIBLE FRAGMENTS IN AN ACCIDENT. I'M NOT FEELING VERY SAFE WITH THIS PRODUCT.

THE DASH CRACKED IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS. I HAVE 1 LONG CRACK OVER THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND 3 CRACKS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ON THE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT. THIS IS MORE THAN A COSMETIC ISSUE. I AM PARTICULARLY CONCERNED THAT THE CRACKS AROUND THE AIRBAG POSE GREAT DANGER IF THE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED IN THAT IT COULD SEND SHARP PLASTIC PIECES FLYING IMPALING A PASSENGER OR THE SHARP PIECES COULD PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG LEAVING THE PASSENGER WITHOUT PROTECTION. I AM UNSURE OF WHEN IT HAPPENED; I JUST HAPPENED TO NOTICE THE CRACKS WHILE DRIVING LAST WEEK. *TR

FOR THE FOURTH TIME THE REAR LIFT GATE HATCH WINDOW HAS SEPARATED FROM THE HINGE (S). IT ALWAYS HAPPENS WHILE IN MOTION AND ON JUST A STRAIGHT ROAD! I GUESS I WILL START TAKING PICS OF THE HINGES, NEVER THOUGH OF THAT SINCE IT IS ON WARRANTY. I AM AFRAID IT WILL SOMETIME FALL COMPLETELY OFF WHILE DRIVING.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
