MY DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED FROM THE AIR BAG TO THE NEXT SHEET OF PLASTIC TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD. I HAD THIS REPLACED ONCE BEFORE WHEN THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND IT HAS NOW HAPPENED AGAIN, ALMOST A YEAR LATER. I AM CONCERNED THIS WILL AFFECT THE AIRBAG OR CAUSE THE DASHBOARD TO SPLINTER IF THE AIRBAG IT IS DEPLOYED.

ROOF HAS CONSTANT LEAK WHEN IT RAINS. IT LEAKS THROUGH THE FRONT SIDE ON DASHBOARD/RADIO, AND THROUGH DVD PLAYER LOCATED ON ROOF. WE HAVE TO COVER VEHICLE EACH TIME WE HEAR IT IS GOING TO RAIN. I HAVE SEEN THERE ARE MILLIONS OF OTHER DRIVERS WITH YUKONS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. CHECKING TO SEE IF THIS WOULD BE AN ISSUE GMC WOULD RESOLVE FOR OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES? THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

SEATS
DRIVER'S SEAT WAS NOT HEATING ON THE BOTTOM CUSHION, ONLY THE BACK WAS HEATING UP. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND AFTER THE SECOND TIME COMPLAINING THEY FOUND A FAULT IN THE SENSOR AND REPLACED. THEN THE BACK OF THE SEAT QUIT HEATING. SAME PROBLEM - HEATING SENSOR KEPT SHORTING. VERY CONCERN ABOUT SHORTS AND FAULTY CIRCUITS. COMPLAINED TO GMC ON FACEBOOK AND GOT THE TYPICAL "SO SORRY" AND "WE'RE IN CONTACT WITH THE DEALER". I HAD TO COMPLAIN MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE DECEMBER 2015 ABOUT POOR HEATING BEFORE THEY WOULD LISTEN.

A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH DASHBOARD CRACKING IN SEVERAL PLACES IS A SAFETY CONCERN IF AIR BAGS ARE DEPLOYED. GM WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THE DEFECT. MANY COMPLAINTS AND NO RECALL ISSUED FOR THIS SAFETY CONCERN. DASHBOARD IS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES DIRECTLY BEHIND AIRBAG.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHILE DRIVING I NOTICED THAT THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE WAS ERRATIC GOING FROM ZERO TO 120 MPH. WHEN I STOPPED THE NEEDLE WAS STUCK AT 30 MPH. AT THE SAME TIME THE GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR LIGHT WENT FROM DULL TO NON EXISTENT PREVENTING ME FROM KNOWING WHAT GEAR I WAS IN. THIS WAS HAPPENING SPORADICALLY BUT NOW THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE IS ALWAYS ON ZERO AND THE GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR IS NEVER LIT. I SAW ONLINE THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FOR THE SAME SPEEDOMETER PROBLEM I AM HAVING BUT THE RECALL ENDED WITH 2004 VEHICLES EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE WITH THE 2005 MODELS ALSO. I SAW A RECALL (#05023) FOR THE GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR LIGHT. I TRIED CALLING GMC TO HAVE IT FIXED AND WAS TOLD IT IS VIN SPECIFIC. I EXPLAINED THAT THE RECALL DID NOT SPECIFY SPECIFIC VIN NUMBERS. WAS RUDELY TOLD I AM OUT OF LUCK. I TRIED TO ADDRESS BOTH ISSUES WITH GMC TO NO AVAIL. THEY DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHEN THERE IS A PROBLEM. MAYBE THEY WILL LISTEN WHEN SOMEONE IS KILLED. I JUST HOPE IT IS NOT ME!

MY DASHBOARD CRACKED WITHIN 8 MONTHS OF ME PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. AFTER REPLACING THE DASHBOARD WITH A NEW ONE, THIS ONE IS CRACKING IN THE EXACT SAME SPOTS AS THE PREVIOUS ONE. GMC IS TELLING ME IT WILL COST $1000 TO REPLACE. I FEEL THIS IS FACTORY ISSUE AND A SAFETY CONCERN AS WELL AS IT IS NEAR WHERE THE AIR BAGS ARE. IT SHOULD BE RECALLED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
POWER LIFT GATE MALFUNCTION. THE POWER LIFT GATE STRUTS FAILED WHICH CAUSED THE LIFT GATE TO OPEN ONLY 1/3 OF THE WAY BEFORE CLOSING UNEXPECTEDLY. SOMETIME IT WOULD OPEN ALL THE AWAY, THE POWER ARM WOULD THEN DISENGAGE CAUSING IT TO UNEXPECTEDLY CLOSE. SOMETIME IT WOULD CLOSE AS "DEAD WEIGHT" WITH ENOUGH FORCE TO SERIOUSLY INJURE AN ADULT AND POSSIBLE KILL A CHILD OR PET. WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, I WAS TOLD THE STRUTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR TWO YEARS. I PURCHASED IT AS CERTIFIED USED. I WAS CHARGED $415 FOR THE REPAIR. UNFAIR AS THIS VEHICLE IS ONLY FOUR YEARS OLD! FURTHER, I AUTHORIZED THE WORK AT APPROXIMATELY 4:45PM, MY VEHICLE WAS COMPLETE BY 5:30PM THE SAME DAY. I WAS CHARGED TWO HOURS LABOR AT $125 PER HOUR. HOW IS THAT FAIR? MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THIS HAPPENED, REPEATEDLY. I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE. OTHER THAN THIS, I LOVE MY GMC!!!!!

AIR BAGS
SINCE 2010, MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS COME ON 5 TIMES. 3 OUT OF THE 5 TIMES, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE A SENSOR WHICH TYPICALLY COSTS APPROX $400-450. THE OTHER TWO TIMES, THE DEALERSHIP WAS ABLE TO RESET. I AM NOW IN THE POSITION OF HAVING TO SPEND ANOTHER $450 FOR ANOTHER NEW SENSOR IN ORDER TO TURN OFF THE AIRBAG LIGHT OR ELSE I CANNOT PASS INSPECTION. I HAVE ASKED FOR ASSISTANCE FROM GM AND THE DEALERSHIP. BUT, BECAUSE THE LIGHT COMES ON JUST AFTER ONE YEAR OF REPLACING A SENSOR, THE WORK IS NO LONGER UNDER DEALERSHIP WARRANTY. I HAVE FILED A CASE WITH GM ASKING FOR ASSISTANCE SO THAT I CAN GET THE CAR INSPECTED AND CONTINUE DRIVING THE CAR. THEY HAVE SAID THAT THEY CANNOT ASSIST. THEY HAVE LEFT ME WITH VERY FEW OPTIONS. I CAN PAY ANOTHER $450 IN ORDER FOR MY CAR TO BE INSPECTED, OR NOT DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN. THE AIR BAG IS AN IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE. BASED ON ALL OF THE OTHER COMPLAINTS ONLINE, THIS PROBLEM IS RECURRING AND APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. THE DISTURBING THING ABOUT THIS ISSUE IS THAT I AM NOT SURE IF THE AIRBAG ACTUALLY IS IN WORKING ORDER.

POWER TRAIN
SINCE 2009, I HAVE BEEN TAKING MY 2005 YUKON DENALI TO BOTH DEALERSHIPS AND OTHER MECHANIC SHOPS TO FIX A VERY HAZARDOUS PROBLEM. TO DATE, NO ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP OR ANYTIME WHEN TRAVELING BETWEEN 1- 2-3RD GEARS, THE ACCELERATOR WILL SUDDENLY STOP WORKING AND THE "TRACTION ACTIVE" LIGHT WILL COME ON. FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 SECONDS, THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THIS STARTED HAPPENING INFREQUENTLY - 1 PER MONTH - AND OVER THE YEARS HAS BECOME MUCH MORE FREQUENT - 2-3 TIMES A WEEK. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN WHEN THE ROAD CONDITIONS CHANGE. IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME UNDER ANY CONDITION. THE SCARY THING ABOUT THIS IS THAT WHEN YOU ARE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP AND OTHER CARS ARE ACCELERATING BEHIND YOU, THEY DON'T ANTICIPATE THAT YOU WILL STOP ACCELERATING (THE BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON), THEREFORE, THEY ALMOST REAR END ME. IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. MY DEALERSHIP DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX IT, YET THERE ARE COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE JUST FILED A CASE WITH GM FOR ASSISTANCE. WE WILL SEE WHAT THEY DO. I BELIEVE A RECALL IS LONG OVERDUE. WHILE WE HAVE NOT GOTTEN IN AN ACCIDENT, THAT IS SIMPLY BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN LUCKY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE LOW ENGINE OIL INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE VEHICLE WAS SLUGGISH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WERE NO FAILURES; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD CONTINUE TO DRIVE SLUGGISH AND CONSUME EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,000.

THE DASH IS CRACKED IN NUMEROUS PLACES. INCLUDING THE AREA DIRECTLY AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. IF THE AIRBAG WAS TO DEPLOY, THE PIECES OF THE DASH WOULD BECOME SHRAPNEL, AND INPALE ANYBODY IN ITS PATH! THE CRACKING IS CAUSED BY INADEQUATE BRACING UNDER THE DASH! THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT BY GMC FOR AT LEAST 8 MODEL YEARS.
