What owners wrote
While driving, the check engine light intermittently flashes. Vehicle runs extremely rough, sluggish at times. Dealer checked vehicle over a period of time and eventually confirmed random misfires. Unable to fix issue. Unable to determine cause. Vehicle was later confirmed to have a faulty transmission transmission replaced by dealer.
Car struggled to start when I started it. Idle was/has been really shaky. Engine light came on. I got a diagnosis from 2 companies for my engine. Both said I needed to replace all 8 fuel injectors. GMC has an extended warranty to cover these issues, but it is not available for my state of utah. Here is the code for reference for yukon #n182198000. My car is a yukon xl 2017 that needed fuel injectors at 85,000 miles! How is this okay? The repair cost $1,990.28.
