STEERING
I'VE EXPERIENCED 2 POWER STEERING FAILURES IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS. FIRST, THE EPS FAILED (WHICH WAS RECALLED FOR MANY OF THE SAME MODEL--BUT NOT MINE) WHICH I REPLACED. NOW, POWER STEERING FAILED AGAIN, THIS TIME THE STEERING GEAR PER THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD! WITH THE MOST RECENT FAILURE, IF YOUR HANDS ARE NOT GRASPING THE STEERING WHEEL FIRMLY, THE CAR WILL VEER SHARPLY TO EITHER THE RIGHT OR LEFT. AND STEERING THIS BEAST WITH NO POWER STEERING IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE. MANY DRIVERS WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO OVERPOWER THE DEAD ELECTRIC STEERING SYSTEM. THE FIRST WARNING CAME AS LOUD SCREECHING SOUNDS FROM THE STEERING AT LOW SPEED. IT FELT AS THOUGH THE POWER STEERING MOTOR WAS INTERMITTENT, AND "JOLTING" THE STEERING WHEEL. THE SCREECHING STOPPED AT SPEED, BUT THE JITTERING/JOLTING OF THE ELECTRIC SYSTEM CONTINUED. THIS IS A SERIOUS MALFUNCTION, ESPECIALLY WITH SO FEW MILES ON THE VEHICLE.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE CONTACTED GM, DEALERSHIPS AS GM TOLD ME AND NOW HERE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE WITH THIS CURRENT SITUATION AND NO FIX FOR THIS MAKE OF VEHICLES. I'M REQUESTING SOME BETTER ANSWER OTHER THAN "DON'T PUT A PASSENGER IN THAT SEAT" OR "DISENGAGE THE AIRBAG". I WOULD LIKE EITHER MY VEHICLE TO BE OUT OF MY HANDS FREE AND CLEAR OR SOME OTHER SOLUTION NOT PUTTING ME IN ANY MORE OF AN INCONVENIENCE. THIS IS A SEVERE ISSUE THAT COULD RESULT IN MANY PROBLEMS. THERE ARE NO PHOTOS OR MORE DETAILS AS A CONSUMER WE CAN NOT VIEW THE AIRBAG. I LIVE IN TEXAS WHERE CONDITIONS ARE HOT AND HUMID IN WHICH THE RECALL SPECIFICALLY STATES IS MORE OF A CAUSE FOR THE DETERIORATION. PLEASE CONTACT ME TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION, AND DOING NOTHING IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. AT THIS TIME THERE HAS BEEN NO COLLISION OR ISSUES, BUT AT THE POINT THERE MAY BE IT WILL BE TOO LATE.

THE DASH BOARD ON MY 2007 GMC YUKON DENALI IS CRACKED RIGHT ABOVE THE AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ON THE DRIVER SIDE. I FEEL THAT IF THE AIR BAG WAS TO DEPLOY ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WITH COULD BE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE FACT THE PLASTIC PIECES FROM DASHBOARD COULD BREAK LOOSE WHILE AIR BAG EXPLODES AND CAUSE MORE INJURY TO THE PASSENGERS OF THE VEHICLE. I FEEL THIS NEED TO BE A SAFETY RECALL FROM GM. THE VEHICLE IS OPERATIONAL AND THE CRACKS HAVE HAPPENED OVER TIME.

HIGH FREQUENCY ANTENNA LEAKING WATER. THIS IS PREVENTING THE VEHICLE'S ONSTAR SYSTEM FROM ACCURATELY DETERMINING THE VEHICLE'S LOCATION; IT HAS DISABLED VEHICLE'S COMPASS, NAVIGATION, AND XM RADIO SYSTEMS; THE RED ONSTAR LED INDICATOR HAS TURNED ON ; AND WATER IS LEAKING INTO THE INTERIOR PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THE 2015 YUKON XL FOR THIS SAME EXACT PROBLEM. HOWEVER, I AM HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM WITH MY 2016 MODEL. I HAVE ATTACHED THE RECALL ISSUED FOR THE 2015 MODELS.
