So I've got mine on order and just received the latest Consumer Reports magazine. A 2/100 in reliability? Is that a joke?

Yeah I saw that too. Pretty terrible review on the ‘21 models.

ever since 2014/2015 GM vehicles have gone down in rated reliability, more electronics+different core software=more problems
same goes if you purchase a LT base versus a LTZ with all the bells & whistles the LT base is going to be the most reliable.

No matter what they say…CR will publish what they want and tailor the results. Rember based in Connecticut,,,,,beginning of the Tree Hugger movement for the NorthEast. If its not a Saab, Volvo or Audi, then they don’t want any part of it.

Wow. That is pathetically bad. The score is so low, it makes it seem like CR has some type of vendetta against GM. Were the Tahoe and Escalade rated the same? What was their reasoning behind the score?

I've owned 2 Jaguars, let alone this Yukon. Nobody had been on the bottom more than JLR. Know what? Both Jags I've had have been excellent so far, with service (What little needed...) far better than GM.
As far as the Yukon goes? Not a lick of trouble in 9 months. But glad I have the Dmax.

Our '21 yukon has been great so far. Closing in on 8K miles and nothing whatsoever that would make me think it has any reliability issues

Anyone who thinks CR is an unbiased, neutral entity that tests stuff out of the goodness of their hearts is mistaken. They are in it for the money. They had $260M+ in revenue last year, $230M of it in subscriptions. They make that kind of money by convincing people that they have their best interests in mind. I personally believe they see what the masses like and report tests supporting the trends so people will buy their “reports” so they can feel good about what they bought.
