What affects its junk value

  • Age: at 9 years old, a 2017 Yukon is newer than most junk cars, so working parts like the engine, transmission and body panels are in demand from rebuilders and parts buyers.
  • Weight: NHTSA's crash-test 2017 Yukon weighed 5,672 lb at curb weight. Scrap value is largely priced by weight, so this is a good starting point. See how scrap prices by weight work.
  • Catalytic converter: like all gas and diesel cars, it has a catalytic converter containing precious metals, one of the most valuable parts on a junk car. An offer assumes it's still in place. More on catalytic converters.
  • Recalls: NHTSA lists 3 recalls for the 2017 Yukon. Open recalls don't stop you from selling or junking it.
  • Known problems: owners reported the most issues with the exterior lighting, typically around 52,000 miles. If that's what failed on yours, it can still be sold as-is.

2017 GMC Yukon recalls

NHTSA lists 3 safety recalls covering the 2017 GMC Yukon. Open recalls don't stop you from selling or junking the car, but check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see which apply to yours.

Service BrakesOct 2019 · NHTSA campaign 19V761000

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2015-2020 Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Yukon, and 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles equipped with a 5.3-liter engine, a 3.08-ratio rear axle and four-wheel drive. If a wheel-speed sensor fails, while the vehicle is traveling between 41 and 60 mph in…

Risk: Unintended activation of the driveline-protection system will cause unintended braking on the wheel on the opposite side of the failed sensor, causing the vehicle to pull to one side unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash.

Service Brakes, HydraulicSep 2019 · NHTSA campaign 19V645000
