POWER TRAIN
VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY 2015 YUKON XLT. THE VEHICLE'S GEAR SHIFTED TO A NEUTRAL OF VERY LOW GEAR (NOT VERY SURE) AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN A LONG HILL NEAR BIRMINGHAM, AL. IT FELT LIKE IT WENT TO FIRST GEAR, BUT AT THE SAME TIME IT DID NOT SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN, ALMOST FELT LIKE THE GEAR WAS GRINDING. THE TRUCK DID NOT CATCH BACK INTO NORMAL GEAR UNTIL THE VEHICLE LEVELED BACK AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL. (IT WAS EXTREMELY SCARY AND WORRISOME EVER SINCE THEN, THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT SMOOTHLY.

THE DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG OPENING. MY BELIEF IS IF THE VEHICLE ACTIVATES THE AIRBAG IN AN ACCIDENT, THE DASHBOARD MAY SPLIT INTO PIECES AND SEND THE PIECES INTO THE PASSENGERS. I HAVE FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS FLAW ON THE INTERNET.

SERVICE BRAKES
I HAVE A 2011 YUKON HYBRID 2WD. ON AUGUST 234D, 2014 MY (XXX) YEAR OLD SON AND I WERE RUNNING ERRANDS WHILE EN ROUTE TO HIS BIRTHDAY PARTY. AT OUR FIRST DESTINATION HE NOTICED SOME FLUID LEAKING FROM UNDER THE YUKON AND SAID HE HEARD A HISSING SOUND. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST CONDENSATION AND CONTINUED ON. WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE AT OUR SECOND DESTINATION I NOTICED A LOT OF FLUID TRAILING WHERE I HAD JUST DRIVEN THE YUKON. UPON EXITING THE PARKING LOT THE BRAKES TURNED TO MUSH (THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESISTANCE) AND I HAD NO BRAKING CAPABILITIES. I PULLED OFF INTO A PARKING SPACE AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK. WHEN IT WAS TAKEN TO GMC ,THE MECHANIC FOUND THE BRAKE LINE TO BE BROKEN AND WE HAD TO COVER THE FULL COST FOR THE REPAIR. ON MAY 29TH 2015 A SIMILAR INCIDENT OCCURRED. I WAS DRIVING THE YUKON TO DROP MY CHILDREN OFF AT SCHOOL AND UPON APPROACHING THE DROP-OFF ZONE I PUSHED ON THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN AND I LOST ALL BRAKING CAPABILITIES AS THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESISTANCE. THE STABILITRACK MAINTENANCE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER. IN BOTH INCIDENTS, THERE WAS NO WARNING. I NO LONGER WANT TO BE AN OWNER OF A GMC YUKON AS I FEAR FOR THE LIVES OF MY CHILDREN WHEN THEY ARE IN THE VEHICLE.PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

THE REAR TAILGATE ACTUATOR QUIT WORKING. THE REMOTE NOR THE KEY WOULD UNLOCK THE REAR TAILGATE. THIS QUIT WORKING WITH NO WARNING AND NO PRIOR ISSUES. ALSO THE REMOTE CONTROLS HAVE HAD TO BE RE-KEYED MANY TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND WAS THE ACTUATOR ORIGINALLY REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY STATING THE SERVICE ADVISER "MADE A MISTAKE" AND THE $495.00 WAS IN FACT NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THIS WOULD INDEED HAVE LED TO VERY AN UNFORTUNATE ENDING HAD I BEEN DRIVING AND/OR WITH PASSENGERS AND AN INCIDENT OCCURRED. NOW I READ THAT MANY OTHER GMC OWNERS HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THE SAME FOR MONTHS.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE GAUGES IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER STOP WORKING. FIRST THE SPEEDOMETER THEN THE TACHOMETER, AND NOW THE AMP METER. ON GOING PROBLEM. DEFINATELY A SAFETY CONCERN BUT NO ONE WANTS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THE DEALER WANTS 600.00 DOLLARS TO REPAIR IR BUT DOES NOT GUARANTEE IT WILL BE THE FIX. OTHER VEHICALS OF THIS YEAR AND MODEL HAVE THE SAME ISSUE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
YUKON STARTED DYING AT STOP LIGHTS. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. STARTED TO PULL OUT FROM INTERSECTION ALMOST GOT T-BONED WHEN VEHICLE DIED. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR SOME 2009 YUKONS FOR FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE BUT GMC SAID THIS VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. SOUNDS LIKE IT IS A BIGGER PROBLEM THEN THEY ARE ADMITTING. I GUESS SOMEONE ELSE HAS TO DIE BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE! TOWED VEHICLE TO MECHANIC HAD TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE. $690.00. SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET REIMBURSED FOR A DEFECTED PART! RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE ON A HIGHWAY I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND SUDDENLY THE BRAKE PEDAL SUNK AND I LOST BRAKES. I NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND ALMOST DROVE INTO A GUARD RAIL. AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION I OBSERVE THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE BRAKE WAS CORRODED CAUSING IT TO BREAK. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH GMC AND THE COMPANY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION. USING STAINLESS WOULD PREVENT INCIDENTS LIKE THESE AND POSSIBLE INJURIES OR DEATHS.
