Hopefully your dealer gives you a nice loaner

7k miles, wouldn’t start. Went to the dealership, reprogrammed it. One week later, died while out, towed to dealership, haven’t seen it since. Major electrical issues as well. I feel like it’s going to be a great vehicle. Once GM fixes the issues. Wish I would have waited for next years model. Look at different websites, everyone is having issues. Not minor issues, major mechanical issues. On a positive GM roadside assistance worked nice!

Most expensive vehicle I have owned personly.

It has plenty of leg room and ride excellent. Very quite while the motor is running and very smooth riding. Like the lay out of it and all the extras.

Smooth ride with a panoramic view

We have only had it three days but like it even better than our 2015.! The improvements GMC made on the new Denali were thought out and not only improved the look but also the performance of the vehicle.

Used 2021

So happy with our decision to go with the newly redesigned Yukon SLT! This car has not disappointed us. Would definitely recommend this vehicle to a large family or ones that travel a lot.

No adjustable pedals in the 2021

Why why why did GMC/Chevy/Cadillac think it was a good idea to remove the one feature that makes driving these behemoths more safe for smaller people? I have a deposit on the 2021 Yukon Denali which would replace my 2015 Yukon Denali. However my excitement turned to horror when I realized the adjustable pedals are gone! This car is now 6 Inches bigger yet they decided to remove adjustable pedals. I went to test drive one - and simply cannot get it adjusted to where I can safely drive it. At 5’1”, I cannot now reach the pedals comfortably, my chest is only a couple inches from the steering wheel and my arms have to be bent awkwardly - all so I can just touch the pedals. Not comfortable and quite frankly dangerous. Now I need to rethink this huge purchase.

Amazing ride

I recently purchased the 2021 Yukon Denali and it is top of the line in every way. The infotainment system is cutting edge and it is the smoothest ride I’ve ever experienced in an SUV.

It's a beast

This 2021 Yukon replaces a 2015 Yukon XL. I'm thrilled with the redesign and the changes GM made to the interior, especially with the apps.
