I have had a few problems with my Denali, and now GMC denies my reimbursement for the heated washer?? Here is my list--what would you do???

Problems encountered since August, 2008.


Trailer hitch cover keeps falling off. Fixed with Velcro.
Both drivers side door handles broken off?? Never had that happen on any car ever?? (4x)
Strange dampness/mold odor enters cabin every time it rains-snows-carwash-high humidity outside??
Center cap fell off of right rear wheel when first purchased
Brakes are squeaking.
Recall for heated windshield washer fluid reservoir.
Windshield wipers would not turn off?? Had to replace heated washer module, BCM and fuse block failed, replaced heated washer module--out of warranty $900!!!
Power running boards not working? Re-calibrated by dealership.
Remote start only works from about 15 feet??
Power lift gate close button on lift gate requires 3-4 attempts to get it to close--just do it manually now.
Passenger side front door retainer cap keeps falling off. Now store in glove box so I won’t lose it.
Replaced all 4 chrome 20” wheels due to rust penetrating the chrome.
Chrome GM logo on sides are discolored and black??
Rear Main seal leaking oil.
Tailgate exterior switch not operational?
Rear defrost connectors broke off 4X. Soldered back on.
Front left Bose tweeter not working. Replaced by me. $35.00

Do you not have a lemon law there? If that was a georgia car you would have a brand new one. Three major things happen in one year and you get a new ride. I always brag on my 05 for the build quality. sorrry to hear that.

wow that sucks. Next time get a Toyota or Ford... (I have a 09 Tahoe, and it will be my LAST GM product, that's for damn sure).

Did you buy it new? Are you still under warranty? A lot of those things sound like they can easily be fixed by the dealer. If you are out of warranty, I would get an extended one and fix all that stuff.

I have the hitch cover issue, just a crappy design. My wheels are being replaced under warranty too. But other than that, not a single problem so far. I bought mine used and have had it for 2 years now. It was GM Certified Used FWIW.

I do have to agree though, that lemon would either be replaced by the factory or down the road if it were mine.

Some of the items were under warranty, but the vehicle has been at the dealership 17 times!

I have had it with this ride, going down the road. Wont buy a toyota, but looking at a Ford this afternoon.

My dad has a suburban, no problems, my sister has an 09 tahoe, no problems. Mine is apparently a POS!

Maybe it is cursed somehow???

Anyone know a good witch doctor?

We've had an 07 Tahoe, 07 Tahoe, 08 Yukon, 09 Denali, and haven't had this many problems combined... well one of the 07 Tahoes, but that's because I got t-***** and it was totaled.
