SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
ACCORDING TO GM, MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL #05068 FRONT WHEEL SPEED SENSOR CORROSION. HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE MOST CERTAINLY DID HAVE THIS DEFECT, WHICH CAME CLOSE TO CAUSING ME 2 REAR-END COLLISIONS. I HAD THE REPAIRS MADE AT A GM DEALER AND AM SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT, BUT HAVE BEEN TOLD I CAN'T BE BECAUSE MY VIN IS NOT ON THE RECALL. PLEASE HELP ME NOTIFY GM THAT THEY NEED TO INCLUDE MY VEHICLE AND SEND ME THE RECALL NOTICE. *NM

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
I OWN A 1999 GMC YUKON. I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES WHEREBY THE ABS KICKS IN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING UNDER 10 MPH. I HAVE HAD IT TO MY MECHANIC AND A GMC DEALERSHIP. THE BEHAVIOR IS IDENTICAL TO THE GM RECALL 05V-379. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THAT THE DESIGN OF MY BRAKES IS DIFFERENT AND NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL ALTHOUGH THE SYMPTOMS ARE IDENTICAL. I LOGGED A CONSUMER COMPLAINT WITH GM AND THEY REPLY THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL, ALTHOUGH IT WAS MANUFACTURED IN THE TIME FRAME NOTED IN THE RECALL AND DESPITE THE FACT THAT I LIVE IN THE "SALT-BELT" REGION COVERED BY THE RECALL. THE REMEDY IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE HUB (BOTH FRONT WHEELS) ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP. *JB

DT: THE CONTACT STATED SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IT HAS BUCKED WHILE BRAKING. IT WAS AS THOUGH THE BACK BRAKES WERE WORKING AND THE FRONT BRAKES DID NOT WORK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC, AND HE CHANGED THE ROTORS. THIS DID NOT REPAIR THE PROBLEM. RECENTLY HEARD A POP, AND WHEN SHE TRIED TO APPLY THE BRAKES THEY WENT TO THE FLOOR. SHE HAD TO DRIVE INTO A HANDICAP SIGN TO STOP THE VEHICLE. SHE WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE VEHICLE AROUND TO HAVE IT TOWED. IT HAS NOT BEEN TO A DEALER. *AK

MY 2000 GMC YUKON DENALI IS EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS AS DESCRIBED IN RECALL 05068 FROM GMC. GMC HAS TOLD ME THAT MY VEHICLE FALLS UNDER THE RIGHT TIME FRAME BUT DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE RIGHT VIN NUMBERS. I AM HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS! THE FOLLOWING IS AN EMAIL THAT I RECEIVED FROM GMC: VEHICLES OF A MODEL YEAR ARE AFFECTED. THERE IS AN UPCOMING RECALL 05068 FRONT WHEEL SPEED SENSOR- DESCRIPTION: ABS WHEEL SENSORS. GENERAL MOTORS WILL NOTIFY ALL OWNERS OF INVOLVED VEHICLES BEGINNING 10/12/2005. PLEASE MAKE SURE THE LOCAL DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR DIVISIONS (DMV) HAS YOUR CURRENT INFORMATION FOR MAILING PURPOSES IN CASE YOUR VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. BELOW ARE SOME INFORMATION THAT MAY BE HELPFUL FOR THE UPCOMING RECALL. DESCRIPTION OF CONDITION: SOME OF THE SUBJECT VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE ASSOCIATED WITH UNWANTED ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) ACTIVATION DURING LOW-SPEED BRAKE APPLICATIONS (LESS THAN 10 MPH AND GREATER THAN 3.7 MPH). THIS CONDITION DOES NOT SET ANY ABS CODES NOR DOES IT ILLUMINATE THE ABS WARNING LAMP. THIS CONDITION IS MORE LIKELY TO OCCUR IN ENVIRONMENTALLY CORROSIVE AREAS, BASED ON FIELD REPORT DATA. CONSEQUENCE OF CONDITION: WHEN THE PEAK-TO-PEAK WHEEL SPEED SENSOR VOLTAGE LEVEL RECEIVED AT THE ABS CONTROLLER IS BELOW THE MINIMUM SPECIFIED PEAK-TO-PEAK LEVEL, THE ABS CONTROLLER INTERPRETS THIS AS A WHEEL SPEED THAT IS LESS THAN THE ACTUAL WHEEL SPEED. IN OTHER WORDS, THE ABS INTERPRETS THE WHEEL AS SLIPPING WHEN IT IS NOT. IF THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED, AN EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE MAY BE REQUIRED. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
EVER SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN OCT 2004, I FELT THIS JUMPING OF THE TRUCK AFTER I STOPPED AND STARTED TO ACCELERATE IT WOULD DO THIS, I CALLED IN AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MAYBE BECAUSE IT WAS NEW, IT MAY BE DOING THAT , I TOOK IT IN LAST WEEK BECAUSE THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS LIT AND THERE WAS A STRANGE BURNING SMELL ON , IT AND THERE WAS ALSO THE RECALL OF THE BACK SEATS, AND A LIGHT SENSOR LOOSE, IT WAS RETURNED TO ME AFTER A FEW DAYS, AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS BECAUSE THE GAS CAP WAS LOOSE? THAT WAS THE WORST EXCUSE THAT I HAVE HEARD, I AM STILL HAVING THAT PROBLEM, BUT I JUST DON'T WANT TO TAKE IT ANYMORE BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING TO COME OUT WITH THE SOME LAME EXCUSE , AND STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM. *JB

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP
- INACCURATE FUEL LEVEL READINGS EVERYTIME THE GAS TANK IS FULL - ANYTIME THE TRUCK IS DRIVEN OR IN PARK IT SHOWS THE EMPTY AND THE LOW FUEL LIGHT WILL COME ON AND STAYS ON UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN OVER A BUMP OR SOMETHING. - I LOOKED ON LINE AND I NOTICED THAT THERE HAS BEEN ALREADY A SERVICE RECALL ISSUED BUT NOT FOR THE YUKON, ITS FOR THE YUKON XL HOWEVER I CONTACTED GMC AND I EXPLAINED THAT I AM EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AS THE XL, THERE RESPONSE WAS THAT THERE IS NO RECALL BEEN ISSUED FOR THE YUKON. WITH IN MIND THAT BOTH OF THESE VEHICLE LINES USE OR SHARE MOST OF THEIR PARTS. *JB

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
THE SPEED SENSOR FAILS AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 6 AND 9 MPG; RESULTING IN NO OR LIMITED ABILITY TO BRAKE. REPEATED NEAR ACCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED IN TRAFFIC AND IN PARKING SITUATIONS. THE VEHICLE IS BEING REPAIRED AT THIS TIME AT JIM MURPHY PONTIAC-GMC TRUCK, INC. 3000 WALDEN AVE DEPEW, NY 14043 PHONE: 716-684-8900 FAX: 716-684-9050. I UNDERSTAND GM HAS RECALLED PRACTICALLY IDENTICAL VEHICLES SUCH AS THE GM TAHOE, SUBURBAN, ETC. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THE GMC YUKON DENALI IS VIRTUALLY THE SAME VEHICLE AS THE GM TAHOE. I WOULD LIKE TO UNDERSTAND WHY THAT RECALL IS NOT APPLIED TO THE GMC YUKONS. *NM

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
I HAVE A 1999 GMC YUKON SUV AND I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THE ABS SENSORS ARE CORRODED BECAUSE OF THE SALT USED ON THE ROADS HERE IN MI IN THE WINTER. THERE IS A RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES AT THE PRESENT TIME BUT WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR THE NECESSARY REPAIR THEY TOLD ME THE VIN # WAS NOT ON THEIR LIST. WHENEVER I STOP AT AN INTERSECTION OR RED LIGHT OR PULL UP TO PARK I HAVE A GROWLING NOISE AS I APPLY THE BRAKES AND A SLIPPING OF THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE CAR KEEPS ON MOVING WHEN I THINK ITS GOING TO STOP. I HAVE HAD THE DEALER DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND ALSO A BRAKE MECHANIC AND BOTH STATE IT IS DUE TO THE CORROSION THAT HAS FORMED UNDER THE WHEEL SPEED SENSOR AND MOVES THE SENSOR AWAY FROM THE INTEGRAL SPEED-SENSOR TOOTHED RING. THE CONDITION DOES NOT SET ANY ABS CODES NOR DOES IT ILLUMINATE THE ABS WARNING LAMP. THE RECALL ( 05068) BY GM PROCEDURE INVOLVES REMOVING THE WHEEL SPEED SENSORS CLEANING THE SENSOR MOUNTING SURFACES ON THE BEARINGS, APPLYING ZINC-X TO THE CLEANED SURFACES, GREASING THE MOUNTING SURFACES, REINSTALLING THE SPEED SENSORS, AND VERIFYING THAT THE WHEEL SPEED SIGNAL OUTPUT VOLTAGES WERE WITHIN SPECIFICATION. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY MY VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN RECALLED ESPECIALLY WHEN I AM EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SYMPTOMS AS OTHERS THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED! I HAVE NOT HAD THE VEHICLE FIXED YET AS I AM WAITING TO BE ACCEPTED ON THE LIST. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP IN ACCOMPLISHING THIS FOR ME BEFORE THEIR IS AN ACCIDENT. THANK YOU. *JB
