While driving at highway speed in normal traffic, the upper front grill deflector detached from the vehicle and struck the windshield, cracking the windshield. This appears consistent with the defect that is the subject of Safety Recall N24290120.

2023 GMC YUKON

Filed Jul 21, 2026


My 2023 GMC Yukon has had a strong mildew/musty odor coming from the HVAC system since the vehicle was new. The odor is most noticeable every time the vehicle is started after it has been sitting for several hours or overnight. After the system runs for a short time, the odor dissipates. This concern has been reported to my GMC dealer on multiple occasions. Previous repair attempts have not permanently corrected the problem, and the odor continues to worsen. The smell is now strong enough that…

2024 GMC YUKON

Filed Jul 20, 2026


I am reporting a serious safety defect and unreasonable delay in addressing it under safety recall N252494000 (L87 Engine – Loss of Propulsion). My GMC Yukon has an illuminated check engine light and is now also overheating. According to GM’s own customer service r, this can lead to knocking, unusual engine noises, hesitation, high RPMs, abnormal shifting, reduced propulsion, and sudden loss of propulsion while driving, increasing the risk of a crash. I have contacted multiple dealerships for…

2017 GMC ACADIA

Filed Jul 20, 2026


My Acadia went into limp Mode displaying low power mode on the screen and wouldn’t start for a couple days after. Lights started illuminating on the dash as abs, traction control, and stanilitrack, then check engine light came on and my gmc app displayed code p2138.

2017 GMC ACADIA

Filed Jul 20, 2026


Something inside the wheel started smoking and my gmc app displayed low break fluid. I pulled over and had someone come out two days later. The breakpad had uneven wear and the caliper had a broken seal on it which in turn tore the caliper up! This was not a safe situation to have with 4 kids in the car. This car has been one problem after another !
