Consumer Description

I have a 2017 Yukon XL with 80,000 miles on it. Last year I was driving on the highway with my kids when it began to lose power and failed to accelerate. The issue was in the engine and I had to replace the entire engine for $8000 because it was barely past the warranty. Now one year later the car began to jerk and not shift while on highway and it is the transmission that is going to be replaced for $6000. The 2017 Yukon XL is a lemon and very dangerous for drivers. I spent $45k and should not be replacing the engine and transmission withing 6 years of it's age. Reading online these are common issues putting lives at risk.
