2019 GMC Yukon Xl

This car had catastrophic engine failure due to the lifters, push rods and camshaft. This car make and model and engine type is notorious for these specific parts to malfunction. This could have left myself and my children stranded on the interstate. The vehicle has been inspected by a certified master technician with ASE training. They confirmed that these parts are a common issue with these cars.

The contact owns a 2019 GMC Yukon XL. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, he heard an abnormal sound coming from underneath the vehicle. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a general failure with the transmission. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, who again diagnosed a general failure with the transmission, and informed the contact that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 65,000.

Service Trailer Brake System keeps coming on while driving. Dealership says nothing wrong although they replaced fuse. Still happening. Only thing that seems to work is pulling off road and restarting vehicle. That is only a,temporary "fix". Comes back a few days later. This is a safety issue as 1) distracts me while driving 2) I pull an 8,000lb travel trailer with the vehicle.

I actually own two GMC's one is a 2018 GMC sierra and this vehicle and they both have transmission problems. This vehicle has 100,000 miles on it and the transmission is gone, you want to charge 70,0000.00 for a vehicle that has a sup par transmission and to replace it cost over 6000.00. The sad thing is when I pulled up to the dealership and told the sales manager and shop manager my problem they just shook their head and said it won't be good and that they have had to replace a lot of them, so many that they keep the transmission in stock like wiper blades. This is utterly ridiculous and I have bought and paid for at least six or seven GM products in my life but this will be my last one I promise you that.

The contact owns a 2019 GMC Yukon XL. The contact stated that while driving 65 MPH, the sunroof inadvertently shattered. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer but had not been diagnosed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was offered a payment but declined. The failure mileage was approximately 75,000. The VIN was unavailable.

I purchased this vehicle, new. I have never towed anything with this vehicle. Yet, the "SERVICE Trailer Brake System" warning has been flashing, endlessly for two days. The chime is distracting when it comes to driving and/or hearing emergency sirens, should they be nearby. I have not taken it in for service as this just occurred yesterday (4/27/2022). This issue makes the vehicle difficult to drive and feel safe.

Last Friday evening, while driving the vehicle on the highway, the power steering suddenly stopped working. I heard a warning chime and saw an indicator "Service Power Steering" message on my display. I managed to steer the vehicle into a parking lot to inspect the engine bay and fuses. When I restarted the engine, the power steering was functioning. The power steering failure has not reoccured since it initially happened. My vehicle is a 2019 year model. I noticed that GM has a recall for 2021 year models for this very same problem. I'm wondering if the recall shouldn't be expanded given my experience.
