TIRES:TREAD/BELT
I HAVE A 2001 GMC YUKON AND IT CAME WITH FIRESTONE STEELTEX AT TIRES LT 245/75R 16. THE TIRE'S DOT # IS VN11 BAC 4700. I WAS GOING SOUTH ON HWY 101 AND THE FRONT END BEGAN TO VIBRATE. BEFORE, I COULD PULL OVER THE TREAD COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE CORE AND WAS FLYING ALL OVER THE HIGHWAY. THE CORE STILL HELD AIR AND I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER WITH OUT ANY INCIDENTS. I DROVE THE VEHICLE ABOUT 1 MILE TO THE NEXT EXIT WHERE I WAS ABLE TO CHANGE THE TIRE AND EXAMINE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED MINOR BODY DAMAGE WHERE THE TREAD HIT THE INSIDE OF THE WHEEL WELL (DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT). I HAVE SENT THE CORE TO FIRESTONE AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS CAUSED BY SUSTAINED HIGH PRESSURE IN THE TIRE. I DISAGREE WITH THIS BECAUSE ALL 4 TIRES HAD EVEN TREADS WITH OUT ANY BALD AREAS IN THE MIDDLE AND THE TIRE PRESS WAS CHECKED RIGHT BEFORE MY TRIP. WHEN I REPLACED THE 4 TIRES, THE SALESMAN LOOK AT THE OTHER 3 AND HE SAID THAT THEY WASN'T ANYTHING WRONG WITH THEM. THEY STILL HAVE THE CORE IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO EXAMINE IT. *NM

PARKING BRAKE
MY 2001 GMC YUKON XL 1500 SLT PARKING BRAKE HAS FAILED. THE VEHICLE HAS 66000 MILES AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND PROPERLY MAINTAINED. THE PARKING BRAKE FOOT LEVER GOES TO THE FLOOR AND DOES NOT HOLD AT ALL. THE PARKING BRAKE FAILURE WAS REPORTED TO ME BY A CHEVY/GMC DEALER DURING MY LATEST STATE VEHICLE SAFETY INSPECTION. I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF THE VEHICLE. THE ORIGINAL OWNER SAYS HE NEVER USED THE PARKING BRAKE. I HAVE NEVER USED THE PARKING BRAKE BECAUSE IT IS NOT NEEDED IN OUR FLAT TERRAIN. ACCORDING TO REPAIR SHOPS AND THE INTERNET, THIS IS A COMMON SAFETY PROBLEM WITH MANY OS THESE VEHICLES. YOU MAY ALREADY BE AWARE OF THIS SAFETY PROBLEM, BUT I SHOW NO INFORMATION ON YOUR WEB SITE. I AM INFORMING YOU OF THIS TO PERHAPS PREVENT A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. ANY HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE WILL BE GRATEFUL. *NM

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
LOW SPEED BRAKE FAILURE RESULTING IN A REAR END COLLISION. I WAS APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT AS THE 5 VEHICLE IN LINE TO TRAVEL THROUGH THE LIGHT. I WAS BRAKING LIGHTLY TO CONTROL MY SPEED AS TO ASSUME MY POSITION IN LINE TO TRAVEL THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. AS THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I DID NOT NEED TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND WAS APPROACHING THE FOURTH CAR. THE THIRD CAR IN THE LINE SUDDENLY BRAKED HARD IN THE INTERSECTION CAUSING THE FOURTH CAR IN FRONT OF ME TO BRAKE HARD. I ATTEMPTED TO PERFORM AN EMERGENCY STOP BUT I EXPERIENCED A HARD BRAKE PEDAL WITH NO BRAKES AND THE INABILITY TO SLOW DOWN. THIS RESULTED IN A REAR END COLLISION FOR WHICH I WAS AT FAULT. I HAVE SPOKEN TO SEVERAL OTHER OWNERS OF VEHICLE SIMILAR TO MINE WHICH ALSO HAVE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR FAILURE BUT WITHOUT THE CRASH. I HAVE FAILED IN SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO BRING THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF GM THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP AND A PRODUCT ALLOCATION REQUEST. MY ONLY AVENUE NOW IS THROUGH YOUR ORGANIZATION OR A LEGAL CLASS ACTION MATTER. *JB

PARKING BRAKE:CONVENTIONAL:MECHANICAL
2001 YUKON PARKING BRAKE WAS PRE-MATURELY WORN. MY OWN RUDIMENTARY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS BECOMING A PERVASIVE PROBLEM FOR MANY LATE MODEL GM SUV/TRUCK OWNERS. BRAKE SHOE WAS GONE, SCRAPING METAL TO METAL WITH ROTOR. PARKING BRAKE WAS NOT FUNCTIONAL AND POTENTIAL HAZARDOUS IF RELIED UPON FOR PARKING ON AN INCLINE. DEFECT IN THE BRAKE SHOE ALONE WAS $250 TO REPAIR + $200 TO REPLACE THE ROTOR DAMAGED BY THE FAULTY BRAKE SHOE. GM HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PROBLEM WITH A SERVICE BULLETIN, BUT REFUSES TO REPLACE VOLUNTARILY. *JB

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
WE OWN A 2001 GMC YUKON XL WHICH IS UNDER RECALL FOR DEFECTIVE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM. WE BOUGHT THE CAR USED WITH 100,000 MILES ON IT. THE CAR ORIGINALLY CAME FROM MICHIGAN; HOWEVER, WE LIVE IN TN. THE CAR DOES NOT STOP WHEN YOU ARE TRAVELING AT LOW SPEEDS. THERE HAVE BEEN COUNTLESS INSTANCES WHERE OUR CAR HASN'T STOPPED AND WE HAVE TRAVELED INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THANKFULLY, WE HAVEN'T HAD AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING ANOTHER VEHICLE YET. WHEN DRIVING MY SON TO SCHOOL THIS MORNING, WE HAD ICE ON OUR ROADS AND IT WAS EVEN MORE IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP...I WORRY THAT WITH WINTER CONDITIONS, AND THE NEED TO DRIVE SLOWER, THE POSSIBILITY OF AN ACCIDENT WITH THIS VEHICLE WILL INCREASE. I HAD HEARD ABOUT THE RECALL MONTHS AGO ON THE LOCAL NEWS AND WAS WORRIED WHY WE HADN'T RECEIVED OUR NOTICE. MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE CALLED GMC DEALERSHIPS IN TN REPEATEDLY, BUT NO ONE WOULD HELP US UNTIL WE RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM GMC. WHEN I RETURNED HOME THIS MORNING, ON FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16, I CALLED THE GMC RECALL INFORMATION LINE AND SPOKE WITH A REPRESENTATIVE THERE. I WAS FIRST INFORMED THAT MY CAR DOESN'T QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL BECAUSE IT HAS HIGH MILEAGE AND IS NOT PRESENTLY IN A NORTHERN STATE. THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO GMC MAINTENANCE RECORD ON FILE WAS ALSO AN ISSUE. I FELT THAT THE MILEAGE AND THE FACT THAT IT'S NOT IN A NORTHERN STATE NOW SHOULDN'T AFFECT WHETHER THE CAR QUALIFIES, I WAS TOLD THAT IT WASN'T THOSE FACTORS AFTER ALL, AND THAT THE VIN NUMBER ON OUR VEHICLE IS TRACED AND THEY FELT NO DEFECTIVE PART HAD BEEN PLACED IN OUR PARTICULAR VEHICLE ORIGINALLY. I WAS INFORMED THAT ANY HELP FROM GMC FOR REPAIRS WOULD BE ON A GOODWILL BASIS ONLY AND THAT I WOULD PROBABLY BE BETTER OFF TAKING THE VEHICLE TO A CHEAPER, INDEPENDENTLY OWNED CAR REPAIR SHOP AND HAVE THE REPAIRS DONE MYSELF. I FEEL GMC IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE REPAIRS. I FEEL IF WE LIVED IN MICHIGAN, OUR CAR WOULD ALREADY HAVE BEEN REPAIRED AND THAT GMC IS USING THAT FACT TO GET OUT OF FUNDING THE WORK. *JB

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
I HAVE A 2001 GMC YUKON XL. RECENTLY THERE WAS A RECALL FOR A FAILURE OF THE ABS BRAKE SENSORS WHICH CAUSED THE BRAKES TO PUMP RAPIDLY AT LOW SPEEDS DUE TO THE SEALS OF THE BEARINGS GOING BAD AND ALLOWING DIRT AND ROAD SALT TO GET TO THE SENSORS. WELL IN EARLY JULY I HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE. SOMETIME IN LATE JULY I STARTED GETTING THE PULSING OF THE BRAKES. I WAS TOLD TO WAIT FOR THE RECALL, AND WAS ABLE TO HAVE THE ABS DISABLED BY LOOSENING ONE OF THE SENSORS. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN, THE DEALER REPLACED BOTH SENSORS IN THE FRONT WHEEL HUBS, BUT THEN STATED THE BEARINGS HAD GONE BAD AND I NEEDED A NEW WHEEL HUB. NOW THE CAR STILL HAS NO ABS, AND HAS A FUNNY FEEL FROM THAT WHEEL HUB. THE TRUCK HAS APPROX 53,000MILES ON IT. HOW CAN THE RECALL SAY IT IS BASED ONA FAULTY SEAL OF THE WHEEL BEARINGS GOING BAD, AND THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE TO REPLACE THE SEAL OR THE BEARINGS IF THEY GO BAD DUE TO THEIR DEFECT? I HAVE CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE A NUMBER OF TIMES AND ALL THEY SAY IS "THE RECALL COVERS THE SENSORS ONLY, THE WHEEL HUB IS A WEAR AND TEAR PART" AND DO NOT SHOW HOW THEIR DEFECT IS NOT THE CAUSE. *NM

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE, PARKING BRAKE
2001 GMC YUKON. ABS MODULE FAILED CAUSING PUMP TO RUN CONTINUOUSLY. RATHER THAN PAY $1,000 FOR REPAIR, OPTED TO HAVE FUSE PULLED (SUGGESTED BY GMC SERVICE MANAGER). ABS LIGHT ON DASHBOARD STAYS LIT CONSTANTLY NOW. SO DOES THE BRAKE LIGHT. PARKING/EMERGENCY BRAKE HAS NOT WORKED FOR THREE YEARS NOW. TWO WEEKS AGO THE TRACTION ASSIST OFF LIGHT CAME ON AND NOW IT STAYS LIT UP TOO. FROM WHAT I READ IN THE OWNERS MANUAL, THIS PROBLEM MAY POSSIBLY BE RELATED TO THE ABS. AFTER MUCH INTERNET RESEARCH, I HAVE COME TO LEARN THAT PROBLEMS REFERENCED ABOVE ARE QUITE COMMON WITH GMC VEHICLES. SINCE THE PROBLEMS ARE RELATED TO THE BRAKING CAPABILITY OF THE VEHICLE I BELIEVE THERE ARE SOME SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED. NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT I WILL LOSE APPROXIMATELY $1500-$2000 VALUE WHEN I TRY TO SELL THIS VEHICLE. *NM

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
AFTER EXPERIENCING ABS PROBLEMS AND IMMEDIATELY REPAIRING OUR 2001 GMC YUKON XL REGARDING THE CORROSION BETWEEN THE FRONT HUB/BEARING ASSEMBLY AND THE WHEEL SPEED SENSOR LAST YEAR (THE HUBS AND SENSORS WERE CLEANED AND LUBED, NOT REPLACED), OUR ABS WARNING LIGHT APPEARED TWO WEEKS AFTER THE REPAIR. WE ALSO BEGAN HEARING A RUBBING SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT WHEELS WHEN DRIVING. WE NOTIFIED BOB SELLERS ABOUT THIS, AND THEY RESET THE ABS LIGHT. ON THE WAY HOME, THE ABS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. WHEN WE TOOK THE YUKON IN TO BOB SELLERS TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER, THEY DID A COMPUTER SCAN CHECK WITH THE CODES INDICATING "PUMP MOTOR CK OPEN" AND PUMP MOTOR K SHORTED." THEY ALSO TYPED "CLEAR CODES ROAD TEST OVER 15 MILES, ABS DID NOT RESET CODES." BOB SELLERS NOW QUOTES US OVER $1,000.00 TO REPAIR THE MOTOR, SOMETHING WE CANNOT AFFORD. WE ARE VERY SUSPICIOUS HOW THIS OCCURRED IN TANDEM WITH THE REPAIR AND ARE ASKING FOR NHTSA TO PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. WHEN WE NEEDED OUR ABS TO ENGAGE DURING THE WINTER SEASON, THEY FAILED. OUR YUKON WAS RECENTLY TAKEN IN AGAIN WHEN THE RECALL REGARDING THE AFOREMENTIONED PROBLEM WAS ISSUED, AND ONCE AGAIN, ALL BOB SELLERS DID WAS CLEAN AND LUBE THE SENSORS, NOT REPLACE THEM. PLEASE ADVISE, SO MY FAMILY AND I ARE NOT AT RISK WITH THIS HORRIBLE BRAKE SITUATION AS THE WINTER SEASON APPROACHES. THANK YOU. *JB

PARKING BRAKE
DT: THE CONTACT STATED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE FAILED TWICE. FIRST, IT HAPPENED IN OCTOBER 2002. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP ,AND THEY REPLACED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE BANDS ,AND TURNED THE DRUMS. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNAWARE WHY IT WENT OUT THAT EARLY. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN IN SEPTEMBER 2005, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY REPLACED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE SYSTEM AGAIN. THEY SAID THERE WAS A CLIP IN THE BRAKES THAT MAY HAVE FALLEN OFF. THE CONTACT THEN CALLED GM, AND THEY STATED THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD BE DONE. *AK UPDATED 11/29/2005. *NM

PARKING BRAKE
NON-WORKING PARKING BRAKE. IF THE VEHICLE IS LEFT IN NEUTRAL (AUTOMATIC OR MANUAL) WITH THE PARKING BRAKE APPLIED THE VEHICLE CAN ROLL. SEE 05V161000. THIS IS CAUSED BY A DESIGN FLAW FROM THE MANUFACTURER THAT CAUSES THE PARKING BRAKE TO NOT FULLY DISENGAGE WHILE DRIVING CAUSING WEAR ON THE PARKING BRAKE COMPONENTS. THESE VEHICLES HAVE SEPARATE BRAKE SYSTEMS FOR NORMAL AND PARKING BRAKES. THE PARKING BRAKE SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER WEAR OUT. APPLIES TO ALL 1999 - 2005 GM & GMC FULL SIZE PICKUPS AND FULL SIZE SUV VEHICLES. *JB

STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST:PUMP
WIFE WAS BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AND HEARD A LOUD POPPING SOUND AND THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT. IT WAS HARD TO TURN THE VEHICLE AND SHE EVENTUALLY MADE IT HOME. I CHECKED THE STEERING AND IT WAS MALFUNCTIONING. I HAVE HEARD THIS HAS BEEN RECALLED IN THE PAST AND WE NOTIFIED THE MANUFACTURER GMC AND THEY STATED OUR VEHICLE VIN WAS NOT ON THE LIST AND COULD NOT BE REPAIRED UNLESS WE PAID FOR THE VEHICLE REPAIR. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. IF THEY HAD RECALLED THIS IN THE PAST IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECTIFIED WITH THE VEHICLES SOLD AFTER THE RECALL. I BELIEVE WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS AND THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. *JB
