    Not so good in the white stuff.

    As others have told you: There is something wrong with your truck - take it to the dealer to get it sorted.

    Snow tires?

    You absolutely do not need dedicated snow tires on 4WD Yukons for safe driving in the snow. I live in Chicago where snow is common and have never had any issues. Personally I think it is overkill to put snow tires on a massively heavy, long wheel based 4WD vehicle, but to each his own.

    About to pull the trigger - need advice

    My advice: Do neither. Put the GMC out of your mind and go directly to the nearest Ford, Lincoln, or Toyota (or other) dealer where you will find a full size SUV that is engineered and built better than the GMC you are considering. Trust me...I've now spent over a year with my 2015 Denali XL.

    Sunroof fabric wind deflector

    The fishnet fabric wind deflector is loud, ugly, and hackish.

    Drivers Seat Back panel

    I had the same issue. Dealer "fixed" it but it is now starting to fall off again. Just another one of the many fit/finish issues with these trucks.

    MP4 Video?

    I loaded a few movies onto a USB thumb drive...all are in MP4 format (copied from my iTunes). Intellilink does not seem to recognize any content on the USB. Anyone know of a solution? Thank you, Scott

    Easy there. His input is perfectly valid given the title of the thread.

    What's up with the high pitch noise when in 4WD?

    There are a few threads on here about it but to summarize: The control module that sits under the dash behind the selector knob generates this sound while the knob is in the "auto" position. Several have had the module replaced but the sound does not go away. The only fix I am aware of is...

    Given all the Snow in some areas - how does she do with the 22s?

    We had a decent snow (~14 inches) a couple of weeks ago, took the truck out to see how it would do on the 22's and stock Bridgestones. I was on unplowed streets with at least of foot of fresh snowfall, truck felt very stable and planted. Found a few drifts of at least 2 feet, plowed through...

    Reliability? Is it as bad as it sounds?

    Short answer: Yes Long answer: I traded a 2005 Toyota Sequoia wwith 135,000 miles on it for our 2015 Denali XL. The ony reason we did not get another Sequoia is that we needed more cargo space. The XL does offer more space but it is nowhere near the quality of the Sequoia. None of our...

    Chirp sound from exhaust

    Thank you for posting the link. Simply amazing that I will be climbing under my brand new $75k truck to fix a GMC design error with a hose clamp.

    Buyer's Remorse - 2015 Denali XL

    Don't believe me? ---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ---------- I understand your point, and agree. However, in my case, the quality issues are not worth the time or hassle to have fixed - can live with them. I'm just disappointed that a vehicle at...

    Buyer's Remorse - 2015 Denali XL

    Ha ha...your logic is comical. I pay a manufacturer $75k to build me a vehicle, it shows up with quality issues, and it is "on me". Of course I looked at the vehicle and noticed these things when I picked it up - and I also had 3 kids and a wife needing a truck to get to school, practices...

    Chirp sound from exhaust

    Sounds to me like the cylinder deactivation "valve" that is on the exhaust - it opens/closes when switching between V4 and V8 modes to avoid droning in V4 mode - mine squeeks everytime and is getting louder as time goes by. Someone else on this forum posted a home fix.
