Lifter tick on the 5.3L and 6.2L
A 2021 class action says cylinder deactivation causes early lifter failure on 2014-and-later Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL V8s. The usual sign is a ticking engine.

Sierras, Yukons and Canyons, Repaired on Calvert Rd
GMC trucks share a lot with their Chevy cousins: the Sierra shares its platform and engines with the Silverado, and the Yukon is built in Arlington, Texas, alongside the Tahoe and Suburban. That means the same known problems, and the same fixes.
We repair GMC Sierras, Yukons, Canyons and Terrains at our shop in Tomball: transmission repair, brake repair, car AC repair, check engine lights, suspension, oil changes and tune-ups.
Got a classic GMC pickup or Jimmy? We do rust repair, restorations and LS swaps on those too. Text photos of the project to 936-661-2675.
COMMON GMC PROBLEMS
Sierra and Yukon Problems We Fix
GMC trucks share their V8s and 8-speed with Chevy, so they share the same known problems. A recall or warranty extension may still cover yours.
8-speed shudder on Sierra and Yukon
The 8-speed automatic on 2015–2019 Sierra and Yukon and 2017–2019 Canyon is known for shudder and harsh shifts.
Transmission repair ↗Hard brake pedal on Sierra and Yukon
On 2014–2018 Sierra and 2015–2018 Yukon, the brake assist vacuum pump can lose output, giving a hard pedal and a “service brake assist” message.
Brake repair ↗AC leaks
A class action alleges AC leaks on 2014–2016 Sierra 1500 and 2015–2017 Yukon. If the AC keeps going warm after a recharge, there’s a leak to find.
