I totally agree with you ! I wish I had read your review before I bought my 2021 Yukon Denali . It’s been in the service department longer than with me it seems . I bought mine October 2020.
List of problems include
Third row seat head rest won’t stay up.
SD card says it’s been removed ,
It has not .
Rear seat media doesn’t work .
Been in shop 3 times for this and each time it’s a temporary fix.
Several electrical problems including the electrical harness that I had to wait almost 30 days for it so my vehicle sat in the service department all taken apart waiting for part .
The modules
Navigation system doesn’t work
The roof retains waiter and swishes around for hours . Been in shop 3 times including today .
Rear passenger seat door would not open.

so i agree it seems like production was rushed.
The electrical harness and rearseat media came off production line not working.
Don’t they test electrical parts or better yet the whole vehicle to make sure it works.
Especially when it costs over $87k??
I regret trading in my 2018 Yukon Denali. I neverhad problems with that one
Wait...did you change your screen name and also now you’re Nancy instead of Andrew? Did you get booted? Btw you spelled Denali wrong this time.

Just in case anyone is on the line about whether to buy - I would wait if I could do it over again.

Ordered a 2021 GMC Yukon Denali. Traded my 2016 Yukon Denali and put $5K down and a friend gave me an employee discount code to save over $4.5K off sticker. Drove 2021 Denali off lot with only 2 miles on it. Drove it home to discover rear headrest would not stay upright. Drove back to dealer the following day, they looked at it and scheduled appointment 2 days later. Drove it the next day and "Service Driver Assist System" warning came on. Dropped it at dealer the next morning with 62 miles on it and they kept it for 8 days to replace the headrest and replace driver assist front radar module. Picked up from dealer on afternoon of 8th day and it had 124 miles on it due to the "testing" they did. Stopped at a store on the way home and noticed the park assist lights came and beeping on when there was nothing around me while parking. Later that night, drove to empty parking lot and recorded the vehicle malfunctioning over and over with park assist lights/alarms while nothing around the vehicle and screen blinking/glitching. I will post a video if I can.

Took it back to the dealer today and I can only imagine how long they will have it this time. At this point I'd just rather it be more than 30 days so I can file a lemon claim.




Did you really admit to committing fraud? Karma? Dont F*uck it up for us that earned it.
