    2026 Yukon build date

    Our dealer is not giving us many details, but we placed an order August 8, and were notified the build date was scheduled for the week of September 1 with an expected delivery before the end of the month. We're in the DFW area so transport from Arlington is negligible. Not sure how that jives...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    Neither outcome is great. I think the oil change is just kicking the can down the road, and as people are posting, there have been failures and metal found in 2025 motors already, so a replacement motor may just be more of the same. Many claim these dealers have the engine swaps down to a...

    No Allocations, now ordering a 2026

    I'm not here to convince anyone of the truth of what I've been told. I simply shared what I had heard from people I trusted, which contradicts GMs official statement, and convinced me not to buy a 2025 L87. None of us will ever know the truth about this entire situation.

    2025 Yukon garage door opener

    Glad to hear some are finding a way to make it work, as maddening as it is. Buttons and switches are certainly disappearing at an alarming rate now that screens are more cost effective. Plus, manufacturers are pushing software defined vehicles and they cant do that with physical buttons. The...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    Didn't mean to insinuate you were disagreeing. I wondered the same until I saw GM's statement about 2025s being ok, despite failure reports. I suspect its still too early to tell what the failure rate on the '25 L87s is. Unless and until NHTSA receives enough complaints about the 2025 L87, we...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    I’ve heard this argument but if true, then GM shouldn’t have released a statement saying 2025 year model vehicles aren’t affected.

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    No documented proof other than what trusted contacts at GM dealers have shared, which 100% contradicts GMs official statement that was published on GM Authority. I can’t imagine dealer execs and owners would tell anyone to not purchase a new vehicle if there wasn’t some legitimate concern. The...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    Per my post a few days ago... When we started looking into trading one of our recalled vehicles for a new 2025, someone we know who is on the executive team at another GM dealer told us to wait or buy a 5.3 instead, because they've had several new 2025 6.2 trucks blow in the last few weeks. I've...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    Trade offers on ours as of last week were reasonable. The dealers seem to be able to purchase recalled trucks, then since dealer inventory takes priority in the recall, they can perform the recall well ahead of when many customers will receive their second letter, and sell the "tested" truck to...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    My understanding from multiple GM dealer folks is that the "extended warranty" everyone is referring to is only "special coverage" and what you'll receive is ONLY related to the bottom end of the engine, i.e. if it fails again for the same reason as the recall, you are covered for 10 years, 150K...

    Potential buyer… issues online from loud minority or reason for concern?

    Exactly. Although that's not always easy to do if you have a small pool of dependable dealers to choose from.

    Potential buyer… issues online from loud minority or reason for concern?

    I have personally owned at least 9 GM vehicles across several brands, and purchased all but 1 new. I'm not a brand loyalist and have owned vehicles from multiple other brands during the same period. All GM vehicles were driven until the warranty expired, but none over 100,000 miles...

    No Allocations, now ordering a 2026

    If only they still made an HD Yukon or Suburban. That with a 6.6 would be the ticket!

    No Allocations, now ordering a 2026

    I've had two different GM dealership employees tell me that new 2025 trucks are still failing for the same reason. An owner of a large network of dealers told a friend the same and suggested GM doesn't have a clue what's causing the issue yet. According to GM's statement to GM Authority, “A...

    2025 Rear Seat Entertainment via HDMI and Apple Device w/out Wi-Fi?

    There are several threads on streaming with the updated aka decontented rear seat entertainment systems in the 2025 trucks. Rather than have a recurring OnStar data plan, we would rather connect an Apple device loaded with movies to the HDMI input. It appeared this was possible back in 2021 or...

    Piano Black Trim in 2025+ Yukons

    Piano black trim is a cheap substitute that all the manufacturers seem to be using. I wish the trend would die, as everyone seems to agree its not durable and easily scratches. Trying to find a PPF guy who can hand cut pieces to cover it, because it doesn't appear precut patterns exist for the...

    GM Mobile Service Plus Availability?

    Thanks for the heads up everyone. Will try to avoid any trucks with this on the sticker, or demand a commensurate discount. Looks like a money grab by GM at this point in time.

    I had the GM Performance Exhaust installed

    Well that's disappointing to hear. Corsa appears to make one for the '25 with 5.3 too.

    GM Mobile Service Plus Availability?

    We’ve had the same experience here with all but one GMC dealer who has great service but never seems to have the truck we’re looking for. Most of the local GMC store service departments are just abysmal. The one good dealer used to accept service visits for trucks purchased from other GM...

    I had the GM Performance Exhaust installed

    How did the GM Borla system sound on your '25 5.3. Considering trading a recalled 6.2 for a '25 5.3 as well, but will definitely miss the rumble and thought the exhaust may help a little.

    GM Mobile Service Plus Availability?

    Has anyone here bought a vehicle with GM Mobile Service Plus, and been successful in using it? We are in the DFW Texas area, and I've heard several reports that people paid for this because it was on their window sticker, only to find out none of the dealers in their area participated, so they...

    Piano Black Trim in 2025+ Yukons

    We recently looked at several 2025 Yukons to potentially replace our recalled truck. I was not impressed with the interior quality compared to our 2021 or 2024, especially the piano black trim around the cupholder areas in the center console. Multiple new trucks on the lot already had...

    2025 Yukon- Heads Up Display

    Verified Carplay prompts do appear in the HUD on a 2025 AT4 and Denali.

    2025 Yukon- Heads Up Display

    Do Carplay turn arrow prompts display in the 2025 heads up display like they do on the 2024? I also cant seem to verify online or via the owners manual without going to the dealer and pairing my phone to one.
