Your Yukon may qualify if…
These are common indicators under California's Song-Beverly Act. An attorney reviews the full repair and warranty history before determining whether the firm can take a case.
You bought or leased the vehicle in California.
The problem arose while a manufacturer warranty covered the vehicle.
The dealer has had repeated repair opportunities, or the vehicle has spent significant time in the shop.
The defect continues and substantially affects the vehicle's use, value, or safety.

Why a warranty isn't enough
Your warranty vs. the lemon law
A warranty is a promise to attempt repairs. The lemon law is what protects you when those repairs never stick.
The manufacturer's warranty
- The manufacturer decides which repairs to attempt.
- It only obligates them to keep trying — not to actually fix the problem.
- When the warranty ends, the manufacturer's repair obligation ends.
California's lemon law
- Kicks in when repeated repairs don't fix a substantial defect.
- Can require a refund, a replacement vehicle, or a cash settlement.
- Your legal claim can survive after the warranty ends — if the defect was reported while it was in force.
- When you win, the manufacturer pays your attorney fees — not you.

GMC Yukon Lemon Law FAQ
How many repair attempts are needed before my GMC Yukon qualifies under the California Lemon Law?
Under the Song-Beverly Act, two or more attempts to repair the same safety-related defect, or four or more attempts for a non-safety defect, typically create a rebuttable presumption that the vehicle is a lemon. Additionally, if your Yukon has been out of service for a cumulative 30 days or more, you may also qualify regardless of the number of attempts.
Is the Yukon's magnetic ride control failure considered a safety defect under California Lemon Law?
Suspension system failures that affect vehicle handling and braking stability can be classified as safety defects under the Song-Beverly Act. A leaking magnetic ride control shock can cause unpredictable handling, especially during emergency maneuvers. If GMC has been unable to repair this condition after a reasonable number of attempts, you may have grounds for a lemon law buyback.
I purchased my Yukon from a dealership in Nevada but I live in California. Am I protected by the Song-Beverly Act?
The Song-Beverly Act generally applies to vehicles purchased or leased in California. However, if you are a California resident and the vehicle is primarily used and registered in California, courts have sometimes extended protection even if the purchase occurred out of state. Consulting a California lemon law attorney to evaluate the specific facts of your situation is recommended.
Can GMC deduct mileage from my Yukon Lemon Law refund?
Yes. California law allows the manufacturer to deduct a reasonable mileage offset calculated from the miles driven before your first repair attempt for the defect. The formula divides the actual mileage at first repair by 120,000 and multiplies by the purchase price. Miles driven after the first repair attempt are not counted against you in this calculation.
