    Tail lights - failing again - looking for suggested replacement source (or cause)

    I had to argue to get to $200. They wanted $800 the first time and $700 the second time.... Sorry but if I can expect to need to replace $200 tail lights (let alone $700) every 40k miles there's a problem and it has nothing to do with how much my money is worth to me. Principle. GMC charged me...

    Tail lights - failing again - looking for suggested replacement source (or cause)

    You got to be kidding me this car has 40,000 miles on it! 40,000! and I've had $1400 worth of tail lights go out???!?!. For comparison: I drive an 2005 Silverado it's been to the dealer exactly zero times since I drove it off the lot - 140k miles ago. This Yukon has been to the dealer 6 times...

    Tail lights - failing again - looking for suggested replacement source (or cause)

    Part number K2UGLH See attached I shared my discontent with the Dealer and he offered to for x it for $200. So I need to find the guy that can sell me just the part - I can fix a Taillight just need the part. Anyone got a line on this?

    Tail lights - failing again - looking for suggested replacement source (or cause)

    just ran through several pages in this forum (Exterior) - no one has posted about prematurely failing Tail lights. I would be REALLY impressed if I was the first one to have this happen not once but twice.... Let me know if I am in fact the only one and I'll shut up and buy a mercedes.

    LED lighting

    Save your money for replacement tail lights - those burn out after roughly 1.5 to 2 yrs and cost $700 a piece from the dealer. It's not if they burn it's when. We just burned our second one out at ~2.2 yrs of ownership.

    Tail lights - failing again - looking for suggested replacement source (or cause)

    I was amazed that the first tail light went out in under two yrs of owner ship. I was MORE amazed that the replacement cost was $700 quoted from Pearson GMC in Sunnyvale, CA. It was covered under warranty at that time but the warraty has since expired and sure enough..... the other tail light...

    2015 yukon XL Steering Wheel shifts (like the Loose seat shift kind of shift)

    Should mentioned there is only 37k miles on the truck (it's not been the happiest miles burned either) - have had to have the 22in rims balanced and rebalanced to fix a shaking at hwy speed (is that normal? none of my other cars needed this much attention) - folding middle seat back collapsed...
