The infotainment and instrumentation cluster will reboot while driving. This has happened multiple times while on the express way and while using super cruise. When the event happens the infotainment and instrument cluster will turn black for multiple minutes rebooting. At times they do not successfully reboot and forces the vehicle to pull over stop and force a system reset.

The image module system has completely failed and never worked in the Yukon. Then it would brake while still accelerating.

DuraMAX 3.0L LZ0 engine with defective crankshaft thrust bearing caused catastrophic engine failure requiring engine replacement. The event occurred at about 1,000 miles. There is a GM TSB that addresses this issue. This failure displayed all of the symptoms as described in the Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 25-NA-307. The engine has been replaced by GM. There was only one cryptic dashboard message that "acceleration may be reduced", that briefly appeared and then disappeared, three days before the incident. With no check engine light, the mysterious message was chalked up to possibly a DEF low warning. DEF was added. The vehicle displayed no problems during those three days -handling normally. Then while at interstate speeds approximately 90 miles later, the warning that "acceleration is limited" flashed and the vehicle went into limp mode, shortly thereafter the check engine light illuminated. OnStar read the code - P06DD. The email from them stated the recommended action: "Service within 7 days." The following morning the vehicle was presented to a GM dealership service department. Loud "knocking" noises were originating from the rear of the engine compartment at that point in time. The service department reported the engine needed replacement and did so.

Reduced engine power warning light came on at approximately 7600 miles on our new 2025 Yukon xl. Dealer inspected and ultimately decided the engine needs to be replaced due to crankshaft end play out of spec. This is a know GM issue. Incorrect thrust bearing was installed from the factory. Gm did not inform us of this issue. This could have resulted in catastrophic engine failure and cause to be stranded on the road. Not ideal when it is -20 degrees in my hometown. Dealer finally replaced engine then had lane departure unavailable and lane assist unavailable warning lights. Dealer claimed this was unrelated but all safety equipment worked when we dropped it off. Now it doesn’t.

The rear view camera is not sufficient for full time use. The camera is positioned too low and during times of dawn/night/dusk if a truck of similar size pulls up behind you, your camera is completely blinded by headlights. Leaving you unable to see anything in the rear view camera. This is a serious safety concern as you are unable to see if anyone is approaching your vehicle to cause you harm. The low camera placement also does not allow for an acceptable/comparable view as using the rear view mirror. The zoom does not pull out far enough to see multiple lanes of traffic and even during the daylight, if someone is approaching the vehicle to cause you harm, it would not be visible. The camera placement only allows you to view the front grill or hood of the vehicle behind you.
