UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING, SHUT DOWN WHILE IT WAS BEING DRIVEN DOWN THE ROAD. DASHBOARD WAS OFF AND IT COASTED TO A STOP. FORTUNATELY IT WAS ON A CITY ROAD WITH VERY LITTLE TRAFFIC (BUT THIS VEHICLE IS DRIVEN ON THE HIGHWAY FREQUENTLY). ONCE IT WAS PUT IN PARK, THE KEY WAS TURNED, IT IMMEDIATELY STARTED AGAIN AND RAN PERFECTLY.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE AND TAIL LIGHT QUIT WORKING TOOK TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAD FIXED IT AND HAD NOT. TOOK BACK TO THEM AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T GET ONE IT'S ON BACK ORDER. AFTER LOOKING INTO IT MYSELF IT SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THAT GM ISN'T DOING ANYTHING TO FIX BUT PUT THE SAME LIGHTS BACK IN THAT WILL FAIL AGAIN. I'VE ASKED ABOUT AN UPDATED LIGHT THAT WOULDN'T FAIL AGAIN AND THE DEALERSHIP SEEMS TO HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE LIGHTS AT ALL. GM NEEDS TO STEP UP AND FIX THE THIS ISSUE AS IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM.

A FEW DAYS AGO I GOT OUT OF MY TRUCK TO RETRIEVE A PACKAGE LEFT AT MY GARAGE DOOR. I PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK WALKED AROUND MY CAR DOOR WALKED BY THE FRONT OF MY TRUCK TO RETRIEVE THE PACKAGE AND ALL THE SUDDEN I WAS KNOCKED DOWN. I DID NOT REALIZE WHAT HAPPENED UNTIL I LOOKED UP AND SAW MY TRUCK DRIVING TOWARDS ME. I SCREAM FOR HELP AS I CRAWLED BACKWARDS TO SAFETY. A FEW MINUTES LATER I REALIZE THE TRUCK WAS NO LONGER MOVING AND BY THE GRACE OF GOD MY WHEELS WERE TURNED SLIGHTLY AND IT HAD STOPPED BECAUSE IT HIT THE SIDE OF MY HOUSE. IT TOOK A COUPLE OF DAYS FOR THE SHOCK TO WEAR OFF OF WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED TO ME OR MY KIDS IF THEY WERE PLAYING OUTSIDE. MY HUSBAND AND I SPOKE TO A COUPLE OF PEOPLE INCLUDING A CERTIFIED MECHANIC AND WE FOUND OUT THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE ON THE 2015 YUKONS. I AM ATTACHING PICTURES OF WHAT WE FOUND FROM GMC ALONG WITH MY TRUCK.

POWER TRAIN
FROM TIME TO TIME THE VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD WHEN IM STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, CROSSWALK OR A STOP SIGN. I HAVE HAD IT INTO THE DEALERSHIPS NUMEROUS TIMES BUT GM ONLY WANTS TO PUT BANDAIDS ON THE ISSUE, GM HAS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THEIR EIGHT SPEED TRANSMISSION, THEY ONLY HAVE INTERNAL BULLETINS TO THEIR DEALERSHIPS. THE DEALERSHIP TELLS YOU TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN AND THEY WILL DRIVE IT WITH THE CUSTOMER, BUT THE ISSUE IS INTERMITTENT AND DOESNT ALWAYS LUNGES, GM IS TRYING TO OUTLAST THE CUSTOMERS HOPING THEY WILL GET TIRED OF DEALING WITH THE ISSUE AND THEY WILL GO AWAY. GM CANNOT AFFORD A RECALL BECAUSE OF THE SIZE OF THE PROBLEM, SEVERAL DEATHS WILL OCCUR UNTIL THIS ISSUE IS RESOLVED. THE ISSUE HAPPENS ON THE ROADWAYS

SERVICE BRAKES, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
TAIL LAMPS, TAIL LAMPS TAIL LAMPS! NON SERVICEABLE LED ILLUMINATION BULB CIRCUIT IS FAULTY LEADING TO INTERMITTENT OPERATION. HAVING PART TIME BRAKE LIGHT IS AGAINST THE LAW AND MORE IMPORTANT TO ME, LEAVES MY FAMILY IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION. WEB SEARCH LEADS TO MANY MOTORIST HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS I. AS A PAYING TAXPAYER WE SHOULD NOT BE SOLD FAULTY GOODS THAT MAY HAVE DIRE CONSEQUENCES.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE REAR LEFT TAIL LIGHT HAS GONE OUT, WHICH IS A COMMON FAILURE MODE OF THIS DESIGN. THE ENTIRE TAIL LIGHT MODULE MUST BE REPLACED, PUSHING $1000 FOR A BAD DESIGN. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND REPLACED, AS IT IS EXTREMELY AFFORDABLE AND A SAFETY ISSUE THAT GMC WILL NOT ADDRESS.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE PLASTIC DASH BOARD HAS BEEN CRACKING OVER THE YEARS. IT IS NOW BREAKING INTO JAGGED PIECES THAT ARE FREE TO FLY AROUND THE PASSENGER CABIN. CRACKED PIECES AROUND THE AIR BAG POSE A POTENTIAL PROBLEM TO THE EYES AND FACE OF PASSENGERS IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. ELECTRICAL WIRES ARE ALSO EXPOSED TO UV LIGHT CAUSING PREMATURE FAILURE. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY CARED FOR WITH NO OTHER MAJOR FAILURES TO SPEAK OF. I BELIEVE THAT THE POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS DASH SITUATION HAS BEEN CAUSED BY SUBSTANDARD MATERIALS USED IN MANUFACTURING.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, STEERING
HAPPENED TWO TIMES YESTERDAY. 2007 YUKON DENALI ODOMETER: 191,707 ENGINE HOURS: 1443.9 FIRST, STABILITRAK CONTROL TURNED OFF AND ENGINE POWER WAS REDUCED ILLUMINATED ON THE MESSAGE CENTER OF THE DASH BOARD. CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE ABOVE 20 MPH. WHEN I WOULD TRY TO PUSH THE GAS PETAL THERE WOULD BE A SHUTTER IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURN IT OFF AND TRIED RESTARTING. SAME ISSUES CONTINUED. I LIMPED TO MY WORK A LESS THAN A MILE AWAY TO TRY AND FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING AS I HAD MYSELF AND 4 KIDS IN THE CAR AFTER TRICK OR TREATING. I SHUT OFF THE CAR AND WAITED FOR A BIT WHILE I READ ONLINE WHAT WAS CAUSING THIS. UPON RESTARTING THE CAR, IT STARTED WORKING AGAIN AS NORMAL. SAFETY RISK WHEN YOU CAN'T ACCELERATE PAST 20 MPH ON A 45 MILE PER HOUR ROAD. SECOND OCCURANCE WAS A FEW HOURS LATER. I TURNED THE CAR ON TO LEAVE AND THE SAME THINGS HAPPENED, THIS TIME IT WAS DRIVING LIKE I HAD LOST MY POWER STEERING AND NO ENGINE POWER. LUCKILY, AGAIN, I WAS IN A SPOT TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE, TURN THE CAR OFF AND MADE IT HOME OKAY. THIS CAR HAS A BRAND NEW ENGINE. UPON READING HERE AND SOME OTHER THINGS ONLINE IT SEEMS THE STABILITRAK HAS NUMBEROUS REPORTS OF THIS SAME THING. LUCKILY I HAVE BEEN IN A SPOT WHERE IT DIDN'T BECOME DANGEROUS AND I KNEW WHAT TO DO BASED ON READING HERE. I USE MY YUKON FOR WORK SO CAN'T HAVE THIS HAPPENING AND IT'S DANGEROUS FOR MYSELF, MY KIDS AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD IF THEY HAPPEN TO BE BEHIND ME WHEN IT HAPPENS. HOPEFULLY WITH ENOUGH COMPLAINTS SOMETHING CAN BE DONE TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I HAVE INCLUDED A PIC OF THE SYMBOL THAT ILLUMINATED ON MY DASHBOARD WHEN THIS HAPPENED.
