Well, I'll tell ya, we're currently just about to return a 2017 Acadia Denali lease, (nice little car...but smaller than she's used to), and as a replacement, we bought a '15 Yukon Denali. We had an '03 version, which she loved, then some dummy secretly traded it in on an '08 Escalade....she was not impressed...and in the end, traded it in on the aforementioned '17 Acadia Denali, but I digress...
We bought the '15 Yukon from a dealership in Indiana, and did notice on the service history that the oil manifold and right side lifter (singular) was just replaced AT the dealership we just bought it from, so I figured that it had been fixed as I researched the AFM issue and was confident that it had been resolved. We flew out to Indiana to pick it up, and about 400 miles into our 1600 mile drive back to Montana started hearing the lifter clatter in V4 mode...GREAT!!
As soon as we got home, it went straight to the GMC dealership as it was still under warranty as a Certified Pre-owned, and they confirmed what it was...we'd had possession of it for 4 days, and it's back in the shop getting that same repair AGAIN.
How many times should this have to be repaired???
To add insult to injury, we're on the hook for a couple of leaking heater hoses to the tune of about $600 (SURPRISE) that was a bit of a dismal news from the dealership, and aside from the repeated engine repair, it's really too bad that a top-shelf American auto manufacturer can't provide a product like a couple of heater hoses on a $70+K vehicle that wont go to hell in less than 5 years.
It's all really disappointing...
