ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE DOOR LOCKS BEGAN TO CYCLE, NAV SYSTEM AND RADIO ON AND OFF. AFTER STOPPED, REMOTE CAR LOCK INOPERATIVE, TRIED TO START VEHICLE AND THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF ANY ELECTRICAL POWER WITH THE KEY ON....I THOUGHT IS WAS A DEAD BATTERY. AFTER CYCLING THE IGNITION KEY SEVERAL TIMES, ELECTRICAL POWER CAME BACK TO 'NORMAL' AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR HOME WITH MY WIFE AND GRANDDAUGHTER. THE SVC AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON AND I TOOK IT STRAIGHT TO THE GMC DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. THE SERVICE ADVISER IMMEDIATELY KNEW OF THE PROBLEM.....BAD BATTERY CABLES THAT EITHER HAVE INTERNAL CORROSION OR BREAK. $594 REPAIR BILL TO FIX THE PROBLEM. HE SAID HE SEES ABOUT ONE VEHICLE PER WEEK WITH THIS PROBLEM AND THE ISSUE IS WELL PRESENTED ON YOUTUBE BY MANY VIDEOS DESCRIBING THE PROBLEM. SUBSTANDARD BATTERY CABLES ARE BEING USED ON THESE VEHICLES AND AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME THEY EITHER BEGIN THE BREAK OR HAVE INTERNAL CORROSION AND BEGIN TO SHORT THE VEHICLES CONTROLLING COMPUTERS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT CAN OCCUR AT ANYTIME WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED ACCORDINGLY. FOR MORE INFORMATION OR QUESTIONS, YOU CAN CONTACT ME [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

DASHBOARD STRUCTURAL FAILURE: VEHICLE DASHBOARD IS SUFFERING FROM EXCESSIVE STRUCTURAL FAILURE LEADING TO LARGE LOSE PIECES OF PLASTIC THAN CAN 1) INTERFERE WITH AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, 2) FALL OFF AND INTERFERE WITH BRAKES AND ACCELERATOR PEDALS, 3) CAUSE DEATH AND DISMEMBERMENT IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO EXCESSIVE CRACKING AND BREAKAGE UNDER NORMAL USE CONDITIONS. THIS EFFECTS ALL 2007-2014 CHEVROLET AND GMC LIGHT-DUTY TRUCKS. SO LITERALLY TENS OF MILLIONS OF VEHICLES. GM HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS STRUCTURAL DEFECT.

MY YUKON HAS APPROXIMATELY 45000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS BEEN GARAGED AT ALL TIMES WHEN NOT BEING DRIVEN. THE DASH HAS CRACKS THAT HAVE FORMED IN THE SKIN PART OF THE SURFACE PLASTIC IN THE AREA NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND THE HUMP PART ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO HAVE IT REPAIRED BY A HIGH END BODY SHOP I WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY BECAUSE IT WILL DO IT AGAIN. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS ON GMC MODELS. I DID FURTHER CHECKING WITH A NUMBER OF REPAIR SHOPS AND SERVICES THAT DO VINYL REPAIRS AS WELL. THE PREMIER COMPANY I SPOKE WITH TOLD ME THAT THE REPAIRS MAY NOT LAST A DAY AND THAT EVEN IF I REPLACE THE DASH SKIN COMPLETELY IT WILL LIKELY OCCUR IN THE REPLACEMENT. IN READING ONLINE I DISCOVERED THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM AND THAT GM REFUSES TO DO A RECALL AND IN ONLY SOME INSTANCES WILL COVER HALF THE COST WHICH CAN EXCEED $1200.00. THERE IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE AIRBAG INVOLVEMENT ESPECIALLY WITH THIS VEHICLE HAVING A TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL AND STILL NO REPLACEMENT FOR IT. PHOTS OF EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUE ARE POSTED ON LINE BY NUMEROUS INDIVIDUALS AND THE MASSIVE PROBLEM CAN BE EASILY VERIFIED IF YOU DO A SIMPLE RESEARCH ROUTINE. THE PUBLIC NEEDS YOUR HELP TO MAKE THE MANUFACTURER CORRECT THE ISSUE OF CHEAP AND FAULTY MANUFACTURING PROCESSES AND MAKE ITS CUSTOMERS WHOLE.
