2001 GMC Yukon XL review from North America
"Great truck, poor quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced front axle (under warranty).
Replaced tie rods at 45,000 miles.
Various and numerous electrical problems.
General comments?
I have a serious love/hate relationship with this vehicle. Design and performance are great. Reliability is old-world. Trying to guess what electrical glitch will pop up next makes ownership exciting.
