2015 GMC Yukon Exterior Lighting

THE BRAKE LIGHTS WORK SOMETIMES AND THEN DON'T, THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE. IF THEY STOP WORKING WHILE DRIVING THIS COULD KILL ME OR ANOTHER DRIVER OR SOMEONES PASSENGER(S).

I PURCHASED A 2015 GMC YUKON AND AM THE SECOND OWNER. LAST WEEK, MY DRIVER'S SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WENT OUT. I NOTICED IT WHILE DRIVING WHEN SOMEONE BEHIND ME TOLD ME IT WAS OUT. SIX MONTHS AGO, I REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WHICH COST $875 TO FIX (THE ENTIRE LIGHT ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED, NOT JUST A BULB). A LITTLE RESEARCH ONLINE HAS PROVEN THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM FOR MANY OTHER GMC YUKON OWNERS. LED LIGHTS ARE SUPPOSED TO LAST THE LIFETIME OF THE VEHICLE, BUT IT WOULD APPEAR THAT SOMETHING ABOUT THE PRODUCT IS DEFECTIVE. THIS IS SIMPLY OUTRAGEOUS AND GMC KNOWS THAT IT IS A PROBLEM.

BRAKE LED LIGHTS GO OUT AND ON, SOMETIMES ONE SIDE WORKS, THEN OTHER TIMES THE OTHER SIDE GOES OUT, AND SOMETIMES BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK. SOMETIMES BY BANGING THE COVER, IT TURNS ON AND WORKS, BUT THEN THEY GO OUT.

REAR LIGHTS, TAIL LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. YOU CANT JUST CHANGE THE BULB. BEING LEDS THE WHOLE PIECE HAS TO BE CHANGED. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND GM KNOWS ABOUT IT, YET THERES BEEN NO RECALL??

ALL BREAK LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING AT THE SAME TIME ON BOTH SIDES OF VEHICLE. TURN SIGNAL, BACK UP LIGHTS, BLINKERS ALL STILL WORK. I WAS TOLD THE ENTIRE BREAK LIGHT HAD TO BE REPLACED FOR A COST OF APX 2K. IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND THE COST OF REPAIR IS ASTRONOMICAL.

RIGHT SIDE /PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED. DEALER SAYS IT'S A CRACKED ELECTRICAL BOARD. THEY SAID THAT THEY HAVE SEEN TONS OF THESE AND IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY. $1300 DEALER REPAIR ESTIMATE. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE.

LEFT REAR TAIL LIGHT (LED) AND BREAK LIGHT FAILURE. NOT A BULB BUT THE CIRCUIT FAILED. BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY WOULD NOT COVER BULBS, BUT THIS WAS NOT A BULB FAILURE! I WOULD LIKE TO APPEAL THIS DENIAL

I HAVE REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE TAILIGHT AND NOW THE DRIVER SIDE TAILIGHT IS NOT WORKING. THE TURN SIGNAL AND REVERSE LIGHT WORK BUT THE RED PART OF THE LIGHT WILL WORK AND THEN GO OUT.

REAR PARKING/BRAKE LIGHT WENT OUT. DEALER SAYS THE FIX IS $800 PLUS LABOR TO FIX.

TAILLIGHT IS OUT ON MY VEHICLE. THE LIGHTS ARE LED AND THE CAR IS ONLY FOUR YEARS OLD. REPLACEMENT IS $500-750 FOR A TAILLIGHT!

THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS WORK PERIODICALLY. I'VE ALREADY REPLACED THE LEFT SIDE AND NOW THE RIGHT SIDE HAS WENT OUT. COST IS $750 TO REPLACE. I AM CURRENTLY HAVING TO WAIT ON A TAIL LIGHT BECAUSE THEY ARE BACKORDERED DUE TO SO MANY OTHERS HAVING SAME PROBLEM (ACCORDING TO DEALER). IT WILL WORK PERIODICALLY AT FIRST BUT IF THIS IS LIKE THE PREVIOUS, IT WILL EVENTUALLY QUIT WORKING ALL TOGETHER. SOMETIME THE BOTTOM HALF IS LIT BUT NOT THE WHOLE LAMP. DEALER COULDN'T TELL ME IF THEY HAD FIXED THE PROBLEM OR IF I WILL BE GETTING ANOTHER FAULTY PART.

LEFT BACK TAILLIGHT DEFECTIVE. IT WAS REPLACED BY GMC IN 2017 UNDER WARRANTY (BELOW 36,000 MILES) NOW AT 44000 IT FAILED AGAIN. LOTS AND LOTS OF PEOPLE POSTING THE SAME ISSUE ONLINE. BAD DESIGN OR JUST PLAIN BAD QUALITY.

THE ISSUE IS SO WELL KNOW THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE ON EBAY MAKING A BUSINESS TO REPAIR IT. A SIMPLE TYPE IN EBAY YUKON TAIL LIGHT WILL SHOW MULTIPLE LINKS.

BRAKE LIGHT IS NOT WORKING ON PASSENGER SIDE. WENT TO REPLACE BULB AND FOUND OUT THAT ONE HAS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TAILLIGHT ENSEMBLE WHICH IS $700-800. IT IS SAD THAT SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO SAFETY LIKE A BRAKE LIGHT HAS TO COST THAT MUCH TO REPLACE. I RESEARCHED AND FOUND THIS TENDS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. SO MUCH FOR LED LIGHTS--THIS IS ALSO POOR ENGINEERING!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LED TAIL LIGHTS BURNED OUT PREMATURELY. THE CONTACT CALLED [XXX] AT 817-264-7746 (LOCATED AT 501 TX-114, GRAPEVINE, TX 76051) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE TAIL LIGHT WAS A SEALED UNIT THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AS A WHOLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REPAIR WAS TOO COSTLY FOR A SIMPLE BURNED OUT BULB. THE CONTACT CALLED IT A DESIGN FLAW. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, STATED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE, AND OFFERED THE CONTACT A SMALL DISCOUNT FOR AN OIL CHANGE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 66,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED. *DT INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

BRAKE LIGHTS FOR PASSENGER REAR LAMP ASSEMBLY IS NOT WORKING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME WITHIN 25 MONTHS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED. THE ENTIRE LAMP ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $600+. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 49,000 MILES, AND IT IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. ONLINE FORUMS INDICATE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE LIGHTS IN THE LAMP ASSEMBLIES. IT APPEARS THE CIRCUIT BOARDS FOR THE LED BRAKE LIGHTS ARE BREAKING.

THE LED REAR BRAKE LIGHTS AREN'T WORKING.

BRAKE LIGHT GOES IN AND OUT AND DOESN'T WORK ALL THE TIME. ACCORDING TO WHAT I'M READING IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. THERE IS NO FIX EXCEPT BUYING A BRAND NEW ONE AND THAT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT. SEEMS LIKE A POOR DESIGN AND NOT TO MENTION I CAN GET A TICKET FOR THIS. AND MOST IMPORTANT...I HAVE A FAMILY WITH TWO SMALL KIDS AND THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IF MY BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK!

I HAVE A 2015 YUKON DENALI WITH ABOUT 63K MILES. MY TAIL LIGHTS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY. THE DRIVER SIGN WORKS RANDOMLY. AT TIME IT WORKS IN THE DAY AND NIGHT OTHERS IT APPEARS TO ONLY WORK IN NIGHT TIME OR WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT DIRECTLY IN THE SUN DURING THE DAY. YESTERDAY EVENING I NOTICE THE PASSENGER SIDE WAS OUT INSTEAD OF THE DRIVER SIDE. I HAVE WENT TO GMC DEALERSHIP AND THEY ALL SAY THAT THE PART NEEDS TO BE PLACE AND WILL COST AROUND $800 FOR ONE LIGHT. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN ALL GM MADE VEHICLES AND SEEMS TO BE MORE NOTICEABLE IN GMC YUKONS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SEVERAL PEOPLE MY LIGHT WAS OUT THEN IT POPS BACK ON AND EVEN THE POLICE HAS STOP ME FOR MY TAIL LIGHT BEFORE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD CAUSE WARM TO ME AND MY FAMILY (TWO SMALL TODDLER) WHICH I TRANSPORT TO AND FROM SCHOOL OR SOMEONE ELSE FAMILY DUE TO ALOT OF YOUR CUSTOMERS MAINLY PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT THEIR FAMILIES FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER. IT TROUBLES ME THAT WE PAY $60K - $70K FOR THESE VEHICLES AND THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO REPLACE THE LIGHT WITH THE SAME FAULTY PART. THIS ISSUES HAPPENS WHEN PARK AND DRIVING. I LIVE IN BATON ROUGE, LA AND I USE THE INTERSTATE TO GET TO AND FROM WORK EACH AND EVERY DAY. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE GMC PROVIDE A SOLUTION THAT FIXES THIS ISSUE AND NOT PROFIT OFF OF A BAD PART BUT FORCING IT'S CUSTOMERS TO CONSTANTLY HAVE TO REPLACE BAD TAIL LIGHTS. I LOVE MY GMC YUKON AND WILL CONTINUE TO PURCHASE ONE AS LONG AS I FEEL I'M GETTING A QUALITY VEHICLE FOR THE AMOUNT OF MONEY I'M PAYING.

SOMEONE WHO WAS DRIVING BEHIND ME TOLD ME MY DRIVER'S SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WAS OUT. I CHECKED IT WITH THE HELP OF SOMEONE ELSE A COUPLE TIMES AFTERWARDS AND IT WORKED. THEN A WEEK OR SO LATER A CO-WORKER TOLD ME THE SAME THING, THAT IT WAS OUT. I CHECKED IT AGAIN LATER AND IT WORKED, SO THE PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THE TAILLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAD TO BE REPLACED. I JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 1/7/2019 AND BEFORE IT WAS OFFERED FOR SALE THE PASSENGER-SIDE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY WAS ALSO REPLACED.

MY REAR PASSENGER SIDE TAIL LIGHT RANDOMLY WORKS. NO RHYME NOR REASON. WE NOTICED THIS AFTER BCM WAS REPLACED.

REAR BREAK TAILIGHTS DO NOT WORK AT ALL TIMES. MOST OF THE TIME THEY REQUIRE TAPPING ON THE TAILLIGHT TO GET THEM TO LIGHT THE TAIL LIGHT. NOT A BULB ISSUE AND SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH ALL YUKON'S OF THIS MAKE. VERY FRUSTRATING TO HAVE THEM WORK INCONSISTENTLY . SOMETIMES ONE LIGHT OUT AND SOMETIMES BOTH.

THE BRAKE LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT WITH ONLY 42000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE READ ON MESSAGE BOARDS ACROSS THE NATION THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM. DEALER WANTS 800 TO FIX IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE BRAKE LIGHT AND PASSENGER SIDE TAIL LIGHT WERE BURNED OUT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ED BOZARTH CHEVROLET (2001 S HAVANA ST, AURORA, CO 80014, (720) 746-2716) AND JOHN ELWAY CHEVROLET (5200 S BROADWAY, ENGLEWOOD, CO 80113, (720) 259-0391), BUT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 81,000.

MY TAILLIGHT ASSEMBLY LED LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT. I'VE READ ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IT'S A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE AND THE DEALER CHARGES CLOSE TO $1000 PER LIGHT TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE.

DRIVER SIDE REAR TAIL GAVE OUT TWICE AND DEALERSHIP OR GMC WON'T OVER WITH. THE DEALERSHIP THEM SELF SAID IT WAS FAULTY AND THEY BEEN HAVING LOTS OF PROBLEMS WITH THERE INVENTORY
