Recalls and complaints
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA has 421 owner complaints on file, mostly about service brakes, parking brake and tires. There are 8 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done.
The numbers in plain words
The engine is the 4.8L 8-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
By the EPA's combined rating of 15.7 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 47 litres. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $73.02 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,450 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Space, size and seats
Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.
Good uses for the Yukon
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Rent it for a week first
A test week in the Yukon tells you more than any review. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Money matters
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Picking a year and a trim
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Over to you
Send a request to rent the model you are thinking of buying.
Rent it for a week before you buy
