2017 GMC Yukon XL Electrical system Problems

“The air conditioning in my 2017 Yukon Xl stopped blowing cold air. There is a known issue with Gmc condensers. I brought my yukon to the dealership and was told that indeed it was the condenser which caused refrigerant to leak. However, it was not covered under the special coverage adjustment 17336 as my VIN # was not included for some reason. Same problem, but I have to pay for this out of my pocket - $1200. I live in the deep south, have small children, and cannot go without AC.”

“While standing behind the vehicle and attempting to remove items from the rear cargo area, the lift gate randomly slams shut without notice or warning. This occurred several times while I was behind the vehicle. On some occasions my child(ren) was with me andwas almost hit as well. Since I am taller I was hit and was able to save my child from injury. I was hit several times on different occasions either I the head or in the back, depending on my position at the time. …”

“Transmission went out at 88k miles. My sister in law also has a 2017 bought from another state and it went out at 79k miles a week after mine. Passenger side tail light works if you push on it then randomly goes out (wiring/electrical issue). Of course the drivers side tail light is the only one on recall. Cruise control set itself at over 100mph and rapidly accelerated until I hit the brakes. I received a recall for the breaking system specifically for my VIN number that needs to be fixed now that my transmission is complete.”

“While standing behind the vehicle with the lift gate open, and attempting to remove items from the rear area the lift gate randomly slams shut without notice or warning. On several occasions my children were in the way of the lift gate closing as well, however, since I am taller I was hit first saving my children. On several occasions I was hit in the head and it the back by the slamming rear lift gate. I ensured that I did not have the key fob accidently activated in my pocket and that I did not activate the closure sensor underneath the rear of the vehicle. …”
