2019 Tahoe Windshield Crack, no impact
I experienced a massive shatter/cracking in my windshield when my 2015 was a little over a month old. Driving down one of our more notorious freeways, something struck the windshield, which sounded like a .50 cal striking armor plating (THUMP!). The wife was sitting on the passenger side and... -
Hood/Paint Issue
Thanks for the advice, I will give it a try. A friend recommended "ceramic" coating, which is something else I may look into. I hope the other areas that weren't repaired don't start failing- -
Pickup to XL
I certainly understand, I went from a 93 C3500 Crew Cab (which I spent thousands of hours & dollars on customizing, altering and improving) to a 2015 Yukon XL. Initially, I went to the dealership looking to purchase a replacement for the truck. I no longer tow a boat to and from the Colorado...- WTSHARK

Hood/Paint Issue
FINAL UPDATE; 3/5/20 I took the truck down to the dealer last week, as I mentioned previously, their attitude, vs. the local dealer's was a complete 180 degree difference. I will NEVER return to Boulevard GMC again. Having said that, Hardin GMC (my original sales dealer) had the truck for 7... -
Peeling clear coat
I've been posting about this issue in another thread, started by someone else having issues with their clear coat. Here's the other thread: https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/hood-paint-issue.114649/page-3#post-1419883 Sadly, it's a common issues with GM Trucks/SUV's. My 2015 Yukon XL... -
Hood/Paint Issue
As pointed out previously, I had hoped for that too, but new clear coat, may not fix the issue... it's more than likely an issue with all layers and the best means to fix it is to remove down to the metal, re-condition, apply fresh primer, paint and clear, but maybe it'll work for you- I hope so. -
Hood/Paint Issue
UPDATE: 2/21/20; I took the Yukon to the dealer I bought it from, Hardin GMC in Anaheim, Ca. I spoke with Walt (Service GM) who had already applied for the assistance. He e-mailed his rep at GM, who said they would offer a 50/50, but because I hadn't bought a GM product for almost 30 years... -
Hood/Paint Issue
Update; if anyone is still following/reading this. I didn't think it needed a new topic, so I'll post this here. I finally called my sales dealer (I've been putting this off because I just didn't want to deal with it), but calling yesterday, asking to speak to the service manager, I was told he... -
When people ask, Why do you need such a big.....
No Kids, but hauling several large bins of relatively expensive scuba gear to and from different locations. I had a C3500, when I had a boat, but I don't have a trailer-able boat any longer, and needed something the taller bins could be secured in (at least overnight, if needed) and when I fold...- WTSHARK

Hood/Paint Issue
I still need to call my sales dealer, with the holidays and other obligations, I just haven't made the time to call, schedule an appointment and be told; "You're SOL". GM has essentially told me to pound sand, so hopefully, as mentioned previously in a post, I'll get that "good faith" discount... -
Hood/Paint Issue
Plasti dip isn't the worst idea, I thought about it, my fear would be it would "grab" all of the little micro scratches and be near impossible to get off. I don't know if it would "stabilize" the clear coat underneath or if it would simply continue to degrade, eventually flaking off with the... -
Hood/Paint Issue
Another update (for anyone still following). I haven't made it back to my sales dealer yet (work and holidays stuff), but I DID hear back from GM Customer Service. They were basically like "There's no assistance or discount programs available", essentially they're not interested in helping. I... -
Hood/Paint Issue
Ok- I got a call from the "California Customer Engagement blah blah", who asked me a bunch of questions (more about what the dealer told me than what my truck has experienced) and said "well, each dealer sets their own pricing". She asked what the issue was with the 1600 dollar quote, which I... -
Hood/Paint Issue
I will add an update (in case anyone else is still reading this thread) and I don't want to "hijack" the thread, but.. I took the truck to the dealer (for, ya know, the FOURTH recall) and they fixed the recall and said "someone will call you back once they contact GM". The dealership does have... -
Hood/Paint Issue
I agree, I'm going back to my youth in that pretty much every paint flaw could be sanded out and "fixed". Additional "shrug" and eye roll. :) -
Hood/Paint Issue
I was going to post a new thread, but then saw this. I bought my 2015 Yukon XL in 2015, from a salesman I had purchased my previous two Chevy trucks from. He's a good guy and always takes care of me. My Yukon is essentially, a "second car". I am retired, but work part time and the truck has... -
2015 Yukon XL Driver's Side Door Keyhole cover
Found these little hole covers from Widget.com, they're made of ABS plastic, available in a number of sizes and at 4 cents apiece, I bought 25 of them (minimum order). I spent about 3 minutes sanding the back profile to match the angle of the handle and slid it in. I intended to paint match it... -
Driver's Side Keyhole Cover
I'd wanted to "block" out the single driver's side key hole cover on my Yukon since I bought it. There was a kit available (requiring the removal of the handle mechanism) but I wanted something simple, that I could remove easily in case of the dead battery. I had the thought a hole plug would... -
The Unexplainable, Unresolved issue an expert LS builder and Dealership can't figure out
Wow, in all my years as a cop (28+), that's the first (and only) time I've ever seen any steel/copper wool used for any "other" purpose than stuffing a crack pipe. I actually had to take a couple of screenshots and send it to a couple of my colleagues, captioning; "Look, it's NOT just for...- WTSHARK

Just had my third row stolen in dallas
That's a great idea, consider adding the last 4 digits of your SSN, or some combination of your, your kids/spouse, parent's b-day. A specific number, you could prove is yours. A name is obvious proof, but if it's found (granted, some crooks are so stupid they'd never look under a seat), but to... -
Just had my third row stolen in dallas
Being the victim of any crime sucks- "WE" (productive, hard-working and honest members of society) bust our rear-ends to provide for our families, remain productive and positive members of society and get the job done- The "others" (those that choose to steal, lie, cheat, refuse to work, etc)... -
Replace , cap or cover GMT900 dash...?
Sitting, with the sun beating down onto it through the windshield takes a toll. Even if you're parking in garage at home, carport or other option... the dash is getting baked in UV. They shouldn't be cracking so soon, I have a 2015 with a flawless dash, but I also put sunshades up in the... -
3rd row seat belt in roof.....
Yes, that sucks. Could've been one of "those" little mistakes that got missed during qc. Who knows, perhaps everything is done by robot now and the radial welding arm that mounts those was down that day and it slipped by. You've got a good point, "kids pulling too hard", but only after say a few...
