2015 GMC YUKON — Complaint #1557817
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about EXTERIOR LIGHTING filed April 14, 2019
NHTSA complaint #1557817 (ODI reference 11196123) concerns a 2015 GMC YUKON and was filed on April 14, 2019. The owner reports the failure occurred on January 1, 2019. The report was geocoded to Texas based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as exterior lighting, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same GMC YUKON cohort independently describe similar exterior lighting failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2015 GMC YUKON shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
I HAVE REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE TAILIGHT AND NOW THE DRIVER SIDE TAILIGHT IS NOT WORKING. THE TURN SIGNAL AND REVERSE LIGHT WORK BUT THE RED PART OF THE LIGHT WILL WORK AND THEN GO OUT.
