A model year is listed because the code is named in its own record — a bulletin filed against it, or an owner’s complaint about it — not because every one of these vehicles sets it. Counts are documents in NHTSA’s files, not failure rates.

What P129F means

Source: SAE J2012 / OBD-II

P129F is a manufacturer-specific code: the second character is a 1, which under the OBD-II standard hands the definition to whoever built the vehicle. The same code can mean one thing on a Ford and something unrelated on a Hyundai. Any site that prints a single definition for it is guessing.

A stored code names the test that failed, never the part that caused it. The record above is what GMC and its owners have filed about it; the code’s page across every make has the whole file.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA files and the OBD-II standard

Is P129F a known problem on GMC vehicles?

It is a documented one: NHTSA's files hold 146 manufacturer filings and 20 owner reports naming P129F on 23 GMC model years (2020–2024). Whether it is a problem on one particular car is a diagnosis, not a count — but a bulletin that names the code on your model year is the place to start.

Which GMC models does P129F appear on most?

2022 Terrain (19 documents), 2021 Yukon (16 documents), 2023 Yukon (15 documents).

Does P129F on a GMC mean it is recalled?

No. Recalls are filed by campaign and matched by VIN; no recall is triggered by a scan tool. Check the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or open the model year's page here for the campaigns filed against it.
