NHTSA Complaint #11246432 — 2015 GMC YUKON XL

PASSENGER SIDE TAIL LIGHT HAS BEEN GOING OUT INTERMITTENTLY FOR MONTHS. SINCE THE PROBLEM BEGAN I'VE BEEN HAVING BATTERY ISSUES AND NOW BATTERY AND LIGHT ARE COMPLETELY DEAD. DEALER SAID IT WOULD BE $800 FOR LIGHT. THERE WAS NO INDICATOR/SENSOR THAT SHOWED THE LIGHT WAS OUT. I FOUND OUT BY ANOTHER DRIVER WHO PULLED UP NEXT TO ME AND TOLD ME. DRIVING AROUND I'VE SEEN MANY VEHICLES (SAME MODEL) WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, BECAUSE UNLESS SOMEONE TELLS US WE DON'T KNOW THE LIGHT IS OUT AND THEY ARE PREMATURELY GOING OUT. THE COST IS RIDICULOUS! THIS IS MY SECOND GMC AND I DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS LIKE THIS BEFORE. THIS IS THE CAR I DRIVE MY CHILDREN AROUND IN! IT IS APPARENT THAT IT IS A MANUFACTURER ISSUE. GMC NEEDS TO DO RIGHT BY ITS CUSTOMERS, BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT!
