How many miles will a 2000 Yukon last?
The 122 mileages owners gave run from 5 to 230,480 miles. A quarter are at or under 47,000 miles, half at or under 78,000, three quarters at or under 107,000 and nine in ten at or under 165,895; 34 (28%) came after 100,000 miles, 16 (13%) after 150,000 and 3 (2%) after 200,000.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 2000 Yukon wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.

Common problems with the 2000 Yukon
NHTSA's file holds 253 owner complaints on the 2000 GMC Yukon. Owners named the brakes most often: 62 complaints, and half of the 44 that list a mileage came after 67,000 miles. A complaint can name more than one component.
| Component (NHTSA category) | Complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Service Brakes, Hydraulic | 62 | 44 | 68,000 |
| Tires | 28 | 1 | Under 5 mileages |
| Fuel System, Gasoline | 26 | 19 | 78,000 |
| Visibility | 23 | 4 | Under 5 mileages |
| Service Brakes | 20 | 19 | 149,000 |
Of the 253 complaints, 22 report a crash, none reports a fire and 12 report an injury (20 people reported injured). These are owners' reports to NHTSA, not findings.
Is the 2000 Yukon a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 2000 is a good or a bad Yukon: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 2000 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 253 complaints, the 2000 ranks 14th of the 35 GMC Yukon model years from 1992 to 2026 with 10 or more complaints, counting from the most. The most: the 2015 (977). The fewest: the 1993 (17).
Recent model years have had less time to collect complaints, so their counts are still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.

What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 2000 Yukon lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 2000 Yukon.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 131 of the 253 complaints on the 2000 GMC Yukon give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA names counted: YUKON, YUKON XL, YUKON DENALI, YUKON DENALI XL, YUKON XL DENALI and YUKON HYBRID. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only these.
- Recall-file names matched: YUKON, YUKON DENALI, YUKON XL and YUKON XL DENALI.
