The 2024 GMC Yukon XL truck carries 59 total owner complaints and two recalls, positioning its current reliability profile below the lowest figures seen during the model’s 2001-2009 history, when annual complaints fluctuated between 83 and 776 incidents. Engine issues constitute the primary complaint category for this model year, marking a significant reduction from the severe reliability crisis that peaked in 2007.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 7,500 mi; spark plugs every 97,500 mi; coolant at 150,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 150,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.
