SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH BRAKES. THEY DO NOT STOP PROPERLY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THEY ARE GOING TO WORK OR NOT. MY WIFE HAS ON DIFFERENT OCCASIONS ON THE FREEWAY APPLIED THE BRAKES QUICKLY AND THE PEDAL WENT DOWN TO THE FLOOR, THANK GOD THERE WAS AN EMERGENCY LANE WHERE SHE SWERVED OUT TO. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED TO ME. WE ARE TOLD THAT YOU DO NOT PUMP THE BRAKES ON AN ABS BRAKING SYSTEM, WELL MY WIFE CAME HOME AND TOLD ME BY PUMPING THE PEDAL THE BRAKES SEEM TO STOP A LITTLE BETTER. NOW WHAT DO YOU THINK THAT IS TELLING YOU??? I HAVE BEEN IN THE AUTOMOTIVE BUSINESS FOR OVER 40 YEARS, AND HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM LIKE THIS. THEY HAVE YET TO FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING WRONG, AND SINCE THE VEHICLE DID NOT COME IN ON A HOOK AND OR WAS NOT IN A ACCIDENT THEY WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING. WE HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THE BRAKES SINCE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. AT THIS POINT I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER GMC AGAIN, AND I AM LETTING EVERYONE KNOW THIS. HOPE YOU CAN HELP OR HAVE SOME SUGGESTIONS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME IN THIS MATTER. MANNY. *NM

SUSPENSION:FRONT, STEERING:LINKAGES, SUSPENSION:FRONT:SPRINGS:TORSION BAR
2003 GMC YUKON XL HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH FRONT SUSPENSION AND STEERING COLUMN SINCE IT WAS NEW. AT APPROX. 4,000 MILES, TOOK TO DEALER FOR THUMPING/POPPING SOUND THAT COULD BE FELT IN STEERING COLUMN WHEN TURNING, ACCELERATING, STOPPING OR OVER A SPEED BUMP. DEALER PACKED INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT WITH GREASE. DID NOT WORK. TOOK BACK TO DEALER. DEALER REPLACED INTERMEDIATE SHAFT. NOTHING MORE FELT IN STEERING COLUMN. AT APPROX. 12,500 MILES TOOK YUKON BACK TO DEALER TO REMEDY POPPING NOISE AND UNUSUAL WEAR/FEATHERING ON INSIDE TREAD OF F. TIRES. DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE NOISE. SAID ALIGNMENT WAS OFF AND NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. HAD TO PAY FOR ALIGNMENT/ROTATION. WIFE TOOK VEHICLE BACK WHEN TECH. WAS AVAILABLE TO RIDE ALONG. WIFE WAS ABLE TO GET YUKON TO DUPLICATE NOISE WITH TECH. IN VEHICLE. TSB SAID TO REMOVE BOLTS FROM CROSS MEMBER, BORE BOLT HOLES, LUBRICATE, REPLACE AND TORQUE. DIDN'T GET OFF OF THE LOT BEFORE NOISE RETURNED. NOW AT 25,000 MILES, AFTER MORE UNUSUAL TIRE WEAR AND THE UNRESOLVED POPPING NOISE, TOOK YUKON BACK AT DEALERSHIP. SERVICE MANAGER ORDERED WASHERS AS PER NEW TSB FOR PERMANENT FIX OF POPPING NOISE AND IS EXPERIMENTING WITH ALIGNMENT TOLERANCES. JUST DROVE 10 FEET OUT OF SERVICE AREA PARKING LOT AND POPPING NOISE IS EXACTLY THE SAME. HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK IN ON MONDAY 08/08/05 SO THE SERVICE MANAGER CAN RIDE ALONG TO OBSERVE PROBLEM. TALKED TO A FRONT END SPECIALIST AT WORK AND HE INDICATED THAT WE ARE EXPERIENCING SAME PROBLEMS WITH OUR 2000 & UP G.M. FLEET VEHICLES.(100+) SAID GM REP CAME TO INSPECT, NOTED THE PROBLEM AND LEFT. FRONT-END SPECIALIST SAID THAT THERE IS A DEFECT IN GM TORSION BAR SUSPENSION SYSTEM THAT IS CAUSING MOST OF THESE PROBLEMS BUT GM REPS WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE OR REMEDY. *JB

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER
I HAVE TAKEN MY 2003 GMC YUKON XL IN FOR SERVICE ON THE AIR CONDITIONER ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. I RECENTLY MOVED FROM MICHIGAN TO TENNESSEE AND WHILE LIVING IN MICHIGAN I NOTICES A SQUEALING NOISE WHENEVER I TURNED ON MY AC. THE NOISE WOULD LAST A FEW MINUTES AND THEN STOP. I ALSO NOTICED A RATTLING NOISE UPON ACCELERATION WHILE THE AC WAS ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER IN MICHIGAN AND AT FIRST NOTHING WAS FOUND. I AGAIN TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP IN TENNESSEE AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A RECYCLING SWITCH, AND IT WAS REPLACED. NOW, ALMOST I YEAR LATER THE SAME PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED BUT UNFORTUNATELY, MY VEHICLE IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY (50,000 MILES) AND I AM NOW TOLD THAT THE AIR COMPRESSOR HAS COMPLETELY FAILED. IT WILL NOW COST ME OVER $1,000 TO REPAIR ON A CAR THAT IS LESS THAN TWO YEARS OLD. *JB

SUSPENSION, SUSPENSION:FRONT:WHEEL BEARING
I HAD JUST GOTTEN OFF THE INTERSTATE FROM A 4 HOUR DRIVE AND HEARD A AWFUL GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. IT SOUNDED LIKE "METAL AGAINST METAL". AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS A BRAKE PAD, BUT THE PADS APPEARED TO BE FINE. I PARKED IT THAT NIGHT AND ON SUNDAY MORNING (6/6/2005) DROVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ASKED THEM TO CALL IN THE MORNING. THE DEALERSHIP CALLED ME MONDAY MORNING AND SAID THAT THE FRONT WHEEL BEARING HAD GONE BAD. IN MY DISCUSSION WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER, HE INDICATED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE SURBURBANS, ENVOY'S AND YUKONS. MY CONCERN IS THAT HOW MUCH LONGER WOULD I DRIVEN BEFORE THE BEARING TOTALLY BUNED UP AND CAUSED THE LOSS OF STEERING? I HAD THE WHEEL BEARING ASSEMBLY REPLACED AT A $494.70 EXPENSE TO ME AND IT IS CURRENTLY DRIVING FINE. THE VEHICLE HAD 46,369 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME OF FAILURE. *NM

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DRIVESHAFT
I PULLED A BOAT WITH THE VEHICLE (2000 GMC YUKON XL 2500) ABOUT 275 MILES TO A LAKE AND PUT IT IN THE WATER. TOOK THE BOAT OUT OF THE WATER AND STARTED BACKING IT INTO A SPACE WHEN I HEARD A STRANGE "POP". THEN REALIZED THAT ALL POWER ASSISTED BRAKING AND STEERING WAS GONE. HAD TO LEAVE THE BOAT WHERE IT WAS, AND WAS HAPPY THE PROBLEM DIDN'T OCCUR WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY FAMILY. TESTED THE VEHICLE TO MAKE SURE I COULD STEER AND STOP IT UNDER CAREFUL CIRCUMSTANCES, THEN DROVE IT DIRECTLY, SLOWLY, AND CAREFULLY TO THE DEALER ABOUT 50 MILES. MY OWN INVESTIGATION FOUND A RECALL ID NUMBER 05V005000: "HYDRAULIC PUMP DRIVESHAFT THAT CAN FRACTURE, RESULTING IN IMMEDIATE LOSS OF HYDRAULIC POWER STEERING ASSIST. ON CERTAIN VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH HYDRO-BOOST POWER BRAKES, THE SAME CONDITION CAN RESULT IN LOSS OF POWER ASSIST FOR BRAKING AFTER THE RESERVE PRESSURE IS DEPLETED." THE DEALER CONFIRMED THIS WAS EXACTLY THE PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE, BUT THE RECALL DID NOT COVER MY VIN - [XXX]. SEEMED STRANGE TO ME THAT 98000+ OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME TYPE FROM THE SAME YEAR ARE COVERED, BUT MINE WASN'T. NOW I SEE THAT THERE ARE AT LEAST TWO OTHER COMPLAINTS HERE WITH THE SAME CIRCUMSTANCES AS MINE. I THINK THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE WIDENED. THOUGH I GOT NO INITIAL HELP FROM THE DEALERSHIP, I CALLED THE GMC RECALL 800 NUMBER AND THEY DIRECTED ME BACK TO THE DEALERS GENERAL MANAGER AND SAID I SHOULD HAVE HIM SPEAK TO THE GM REPRESENTATIVE ABOUT COMPENSATION IN MY CASE. I DID THAT, AND AT LEAST THEY DID COVER THE COST OF THE PART (ABOUT $500), BUT NOT THE LABOR OF $193 TO REPLACE THE PUMP. I ASKED TO KEEP THE OLD PUMP AND WAS TOLD THAT I COULD, BUT WAS NOT GIVEN THE PUMP OR AN EXPLANATION WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PICKED UP. THE RECEIPT FROM THE DEALER SEEMS TO INDICATE A "CORE RETURN" UNDER PARTS, SO I GUESS I WOULD HAVE HAD TO PAY TO KEEP THE OLD PART AND NOT RETURN IT. SINCE THE REPAIR, THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKING HAVE WORKED PROPERLY, EVEN IN TOWING. *JB UPDATED 07/19/2012 *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT T

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH ON A 102 DEGREE DAY, MY FUEL TANK WAS AT 1/2 FULL. THE ENGINE STALLED AND I LOST ALL ACCELERATION, MAKING IT DANGEROUS ON HIGHWAY CONDITIONS. WHEN I SLOWED TO 20 MPH AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, I LOST ALL POWER OF STEERING AND BRAKES. I EXPERIENCED "VAPOR LOCK" ACCORDING TO THE GM CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN WHO EVALUATED MY PROBLEM THE FOLLOWING DAY (UNDER A COOL ENGINE CONDITION).HE FOUND NO DEFECTS WITH A COOL ENGINE ON A 60 DEGREE MORNING.

PARKING BRAKE
I HAVE A 2002 GMC YUKON. IT HAS 70,000 MILES ON IT. I RECENTLY TRIED TO GET IT INSPECTED. IT FAILED BECAUSE OF THE PARKING BRAKE. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL GM PRODUCTS THAT HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. I TOOK MY VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER. THE TOLD ME THAT THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THE PARKING BRAKE AND IT HAS BEEN RE-DESIGNED. THEY ALSO SAID THAT IT WAS NOT RE-CALLED BEAUSE IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISUE.(ALTHOUGH I COULD NOT GET A SAFETY INSPECTION BECAUSE OF IT). I AGREED WITH THE DEALER TO PAY 50% OF THE COST TO FIX IT. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED I NOTICED ON THE RECEIPT, AND THE CASHIER ACKNOWLEDED IT, THAT IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE NEXT DAY THE DEALER CALLED WANTING TO COLLECT $150.00 FOR THE REPAIRS. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. I WOULD LIKE FOR SOMEONE TO LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AND E-MAIL ME THE RESULTS.

SEAT BELTS:FRONT:BUCKLE ASSEMBLY
DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 GMC YUKON XL. HE STATES THERE WAS A RECALL FOR HIS VEHICLE ON THE SEAT BELT RETRACTORS NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER IS 01V159000. THE RECALL STATES THAT THERE COULD BE A NO LOCK CONDITION BUT THE CONSUMER REPORTED AN INCIDENT WHERE THE SEAT BELT WOULD NOT COME UNLOCKED. THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME OF ANY PROBLEM WITH THE SEAT BELTS. THE INCIDENT ALSO HAPPENED WITHOUT ANY TYPE OF WARNING. THE BUCKLE WAS FREE OF DIRT AND OTHER CONTAMINANTS. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THERE WAS NOT A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THAT THEY WERE GLAD HIS DAUGHTER WAS OKAY. IN APRIL 2005 HIS DAUGHTER GOT STUCK IN THE SEAT BELT AND THEY HAD TO CUT IT TO GET HER OUT. THE SEAT BELT WAS OUTBOARD LEFT SIDE SECOND ROW OF SEATING. *NM

2003 YUKON XL WOULD DIE LIKE IT WAS OUT OF GAS WHEN IT STILL HAD AT LEAST 1/4 TANK OR IT WOULD NOT START WHEN IT HAD AT LEAST 1/4 TANK OF GAS BUT IF YOU ADDED 1 - 5 GALLONS OF GAS IT WOULD START. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID THE FUEL PUMP HAD LOW PRESSURE AND THEY REPLACED FUEL SENDING UNIT. SEEMS TO BE FINE NOW. DEALER STATED THEY HAD NOT SEEN ANY OTHER VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM BUT I KNOW OF AT LEAST 4 OTHER GM SUV'S THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM IN THE SMALL TOWN THAT I LIVE IN

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION
DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON XL. THE IGNITION KEY HAS THREE DIFFERENT SETTING AUXILIARY, RUN, START AND THE VEHICLE HAS A STOP MECHANISM SO THAT OWNER CANNOT TAKE THE VEHICLE OUT OF PARK UNLESS STEPPING ON THE BRAKE. HOWEVER, THAT STOP SETTING DID NOT WORK IF THE KEY WAS SET TO THE AUXILIARY. COULD BASICALLY TAKE IT OUT OF PARK AND PUT IT INTO GEAR WITHOUT HAVING TO STEP ON THE BRAKE. UNABLE TO DO IT IF THE KEY WAS SET ON THE RUN POSITION OR IF STARTED VEHICLE. OWNER'S MANUAL DID NOT SAY ANYTHING ABOUT IT, AND IT DID NOT TALK DISCUSS THE SAFETY OF THE WAY THIS VEHICLE WAS MADE. WHAT HAPPENED IS HE HAD A 2 YEAR OLD AND A 5 YEAR OLD CHILD WHILE BACKING CAR INTO DRIVEWAY. IS ON A SLANT THEY WERE JUST SITTING THERE THEY HAD THE VEHICLE ON ACCELERATE AND WHEN HE TURNED AROUND 2 YEAR OLD CRAWLED INTO THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO GO DOWN THE DRIVEWAY AND ACROSS THE STREET. THE DOORS WERE LOCKED TO THE VEHICLE HE HAD TO JUMP THROUGH THE WINDOW AND HIT THE BRAKE. AND HE HAS READ THE OWNERS MANUAL FROM FRONT TO BACK AND HE CANNOT SEE ANYWHERE IN THERE TO WERE IT IS POSSIBLE TO WEAR YOU CAN TAKE THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE PARK SETTING WITHOUT HITTING THE BRAKE. HE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD HIM THAT THIS WOULD NOT HAPPEN IN THE VEHICLE. HE KNOWS SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT HAS THIS SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE WITH THIS SAME MECHANISM AND THERE VEHICLE IS THE SAME WAY.*AK

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
ABS SENSOR WENT BAD IN FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL BEARING ASSEMBLY. ABS WOULD GO OFF ON DRY ROADS JUST BEFORE VEHICLE STOPPED. SOMETIMES THIS CAUSED OUR VEHICLE TO TAKE LONGER TO STOP. WE HAD THE WHOLE WHEEL BEARING ASSEMBLY REPLACED BY A NON DEALER GARAGE TO THE TUNE OF $382.47. NOW ONE YEAR LATER THE PROBLEM IS BACK. I THINK GM HAS A BIG PROBLEM HERE AND SHOULD RECALL ALL THESE. OUR 2000 GMC YUKON XL ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES ON IT.

AT LOW SPEEDS 3-5 MPH THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ENGAGE - WHICH CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO TRAVEL LONGER DISTANCES TO STOP. THIS HAS CAUSED SEVERAL NEAR MISSES. I HAVE SINCE REMOVED THE ABS FUSE AFTER READING THE DETROIT NEWS ABOUT SIMILAR PROBLEMS IN CANADA AND A NATIONAL RECALL TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. GM HAS YET TO RECALL THIS SAFETY PROBLEM IN THE US...WHERE MOST OF THE VEHICLE ARE NOT SUBMITTED TO SALT CORROSION LIKE WE ARE IN DETROIT.
