ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
SPEEDOMETER ON 2003 YUKON FAILS. GMC WILL NOT STAND BEHIND IT EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A WEBSITE WWW.SPEEDOMETERSETTLEMENT.COM THAT GIVES VAGUE DETAILS. WAS TOLD BY GM THAT MILEAGE TOO GREAT. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THEIR SPEEDOMETERS AS EVIDENCED BY THE WEB SITE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
LEFT TURN SIGNAL: WHEN SIGNALING LEFT, THE TURN SIGNAL INDICATORS (ARROWS) ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL DISPLAY BOTH ARROWS (LEFT AND RIGHT) AS THOUGH THE HAZARD BUTTON HAS BEEN USED. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND THEY INDICATED IT WAS THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH. THEY REPLACED THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH AT MY EXPENSE (301.23 PLUS 42.50 TO DIAGNOSE). TEN MINUTES DOWN THE ROAD FOR A LANE CHANGE TO THE LEFT, I SIGNALED AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED (BOTH ARROWS FLASHING). I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE CARS AROUND ME SEE IN REGARDS TO MY LIGHTS. I HAVE NOTIFIED THE DEALER. *TR

VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER/HVAC SYSTEM
REAR HEATER NOT WORKING. ON JULY 25, 2006, THE DEALER REPLACED:" COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY-REPLACE SENSOR, INSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE-REPLACE, CASE, AUXILIARY HEATER ONE PIECE-REPLACE" AT 38,371 MILES. TODAY, I RETURNED TO THE DEALER. REAR A/C IS WORKING BUT NO HEAT THROUGH THE REAR HEATER. THEY REPLACED THE ACTUATOR, BUT THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THEY PUT THE ORIGINAL ACTUATOR BACK AND STATED A REAR CONTROL MODULE WOULD NEED TO BE ORDERED. NOW THE CONSOLE LIGHTS ON THE REAR HVAC DIALS DO NOT ILLUMINATE. I AM AWAITING THE PART. *TR

THE INSIDE TREAD OF EVERY TIRE IS 1/2 INCH SHORTER THAN THE OUTSIDE TREAD AFTER ONLY 30,000 MILES. THE CAR ALIGNMENT WAS CHECKED AND ONLY SLIGHTLY OFF. TWO AUTO MECHANICS HAVE SAID THEY ARE JUNK TIRES AND THAT IS WHY THEY WORE THE WAY THEY DID. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC YUKON. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO OPEN THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR FROM THE EXTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE, THE LATCH PULLED, BUT THE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN. THE LATCH WOULD REMAIN STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION; THEREFORE, THE DOOR COULD NOT BE OPENED FROM THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AS WELL. THE CONTACT MUST ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW AND PUSH THE HANDLE BACK INTO PLACE IN ORDER TO EXIT THE VEHICLE WITH THE INTERIOR DOOR LATCH. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, ALL FOUR DOORS EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE. WHILE AN OCCUPANT WAS SEATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, HE LEANED UP AGAINST THE DOOR AND IT OPENED. THE OCCUPANT FELL OUT OF THE VEHICLE, EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR WAS COMPLETELY SHUT AT THE TIME. THE DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK. THE VIN WAS UNABLE TO BE ENTERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
2004 GMC YUKON DENALI - TRACTION CONTROL MESSAGE COMES ON AFTER A STOP WHEN YOU START TO GO AGAIN AND IT FEELS LIKE THE VEHICLE DOES NOT WANT TO GO. THE VEHICLE STARTED DOING THIS ABOUT 20K. WE HAVE TAKEN IT IN SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE BUT COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IT WAS DUE TO NO CODE IN THE COMPUTER. FINALLY AT 47K WE TOOK IT IN AGAIN AND MADE THE DEALERSHIP RIDE WITH US AND THE TRUCK DID THIS, THEY REPLACED A SENSOR BUT NOW WE ARE HAVE SEVERAL OTHER ISSUES THAT WE NEVER HAD BEFORE, THE ABS LIGHT IS COMING ON, SERVICE STABILITY LIGHT AND THE TRACTION CONTROL OFF LIGHT COME ON. I CAN'T BELIEVE AFTER ALL THIS TIME THEY CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT, IT IS GETTING VERY COSTLY HAVING THE TRUCK IN EVERY FEW WEEKS. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT APPLIED PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL AND EXPERIENCED UNWANTED ANTILOCK BRAKE ACTIVATION. AS A CONSEQUENCE, THE FAILURE COULD INCREASE THE STOPPING DISTANCE DURING LOW SPEED BRAKE APPLICATIONS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT HER VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 05V379000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTI LOCK); THEREFORE, THEY WOULD NOT ASSUME FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 145,000. UPDATED 12/30/08 *CN UPDATED 12/30/08. *JB

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC
THE CAR WAS PARKED IN LINE AT MY KID'S SCHOOL, WAITING TO PICK HIM UP. THE CAR ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. WHEN THE CAR WAS TURNED ON, WARNING LIGHTS FOR TRACTION CONTROL, BRAKES AND STABILITRAK CAME ON. AFTER MOVING SLIGHTLY FORWARD, THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP DESPITE FLOORING THE BRAKE. LUCKILY A SPEED BUMP STOPPED THE CAR. WE LEFT THE CAR WHERE IT WAS AND WE TRIED AGAIN THE FOLLOWING DAY. THE SAME LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE BRAKES STILL COMPLETELY UNRESPONSIVE, THE CAR COASTED TO A STOP. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MY VEHICLE IS A 2003 GMC YUKON. THE SPEEDOMETER IS NOT REGISTERING, AND WHEN (THE GAUGE) IS TRYING TO OPERATE, THE VEHICLE HESITATES WHILE ACCELERATING AND THE GAUGE DOES THE SAME AS WELL AS THE GAS GAUGE. I KNOW ALL MY DASHBOARD GAUGES NEED TO BE CHECKED FOR MALFUNCTION. THIS BEGAN TWO WEEKS AGO, I CALLED DOUG HENRY OF FARMVILLE TO CHECK MY VEHICLE FOR RECALLS, ONLY TO FIND OUT IT IS NOT LISTED. MY HUSBAND HAS A 2003 GMC YUKON XL, HE RECEIVED A LETTER DESCRIBING THIS PROBLEM AND GOT INFORMATION TO GET IT FIXED FREE OF CHARGE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS PROBLEM AND I BELIEVE THERE ARE OTHER VEHICLES AFFECTED IN THIS PARTICULAR RECALL. *TR
