ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2004 GMC YUKON SLT -- INSTRUMENT PANEL WHEN TRUCK WAS STARTED. ALL GAUGES (FUEL, BATTERY & WATER) BECAME INACTIVE. SHIFT INDICATOR NO LONGER WORKED AND I WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT GEAR THE CAR WAS IN. AUDIO SYSTEM (CASSETTE, CD PLAYER AND RADIO) BECAME INOPERABLE. CAR TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP -- BECK & MASTEN NORTH IN HOUSTON. I WAS TOLD THAT THE BODY CONTROL MODULE WAS DEFECTIVE AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. PREVIOUS ISSUE WITH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER GOING OUT, CAUSING SPEEDOMETER TO BECOME INOPERATIVE. DEALER ADMITTED THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM ON A NUMBER OF YUKONS. (I HAVEN'T SEEN THIS A A RECALL ON EITHER YOUR SITE OR GMC'S SITE.) GMC HAS VIOLATED FMVSS STANDARD NO. 101 AND PARTS 573 AND 577.

PARKING BRAKE
PARKING BRAKE DID NOT HOLD. 1 ROTOR WAS BAD AND PARKING BRAKE SHOES WERE BAD. EVEN AFTER REPAIR, PARKING BRAKE GOES ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR. I BELIEVE BRAKE SHOES WERE DEFECTIVE WHEN VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED. THIS IS POOR ENGINEERING ON GM'S PART. I THINK I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FULLY FOR REPAIRS ON PARKING BRAKE. SINCE THERE WAS A SERVICE BULLETIN TO DEALERS, I THINK THE CUSTOMER SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADVISED. THIS WAS VERY UNSAFE. WE HAD TO PAY $439.47 FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. THIS WAS ON 2001 GMC YUKON.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
FROM: JAMES WARD COMMENTS: I PURCHASED A 2005 GMC YUKON XL DENALI IN DECEMBER OF 2004. AFTER JUST TWO DAYS OF OWNERSHIP I NOTICED THAT THE CARGO COVER WOULD NOT LOCK PROPERLY IN THE COVERED POSITION. I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ASKED THEM TO REPLACE THE CARGO COVER. THEY TRIED SIX COVERS BUT THEY ALL HAD THE SAME PROBLEM OF FIT. THE DEALERSHIP ALSO INVESTIGATED SEVERAL OTHER NEW GMC VEHICLES ON THE LOT AND FOUND THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP ORDERED ONE FOR ME BUT IT ALSO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I AND THE DEALERSHIP HAVE TALKED WITH GMC WHO SAY THAT THAT CANNOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WHY AM I CONTACTING THE NHTSA? ? ? IT IS BECAUSE WHEN YOU BELIEVE THAT THE CARGO COVER IS EXTENDED AND LOCKED IN POSITION IT CAN AND DOES FLIRT BACK ON DRIVING OR EVEN BEFORE DRIVING. THE REAR SEAT IN THE VEHICLE IS A GOOD LOCATION TO PLACE CHILDREN AND INFANTS. IF THE CARGO COVER IS EXTENDED AND IT IS TOUCHED BY A CHILD IN THE REAR SEAT THEN THERE IS A STRONG POSSIBILITY THAT THE COVER WILL FLIRT OPEN AND COULD INJURE THE CHILD. ADDITIONALLY IF YOU EXTEND THE CARGO COVER AND DRIVE, THEN AS THE CARGO COVERBECOMES UNFASTENED DUE TO THE ILL FITTING NATURE OF THE COVER IT WILL FLIRT OPEN MAKING A DISTRACTING NOISE. IF THE DRIVER IS STARTLED BY THIS OR TURNS TO INVESTIGATE THE NOISE I BELIEVE THAT THIS PRESENTS A SITUATION THAT COULD ENDANGER THE DRIVER AND OR OTHER PEOPLE AND PROPERTY. I HAVE DISCUSSED THIS ISSUE WITH THE GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY AGREE THAT THIS COULD BE A PROBLEM AND SUGGESTED THAT I CONTACT YOU.THE DEALERSHIP, FULLY COGNISCENT OF THIS ISSUE, CONTINUES TO SELL THE VEHICLE WITH THE PROBLEM CARGO COVERS AND REFUSES TO TELL POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS OF THE PROBLEM. I HOPE THAT YOU TAKE THIS ISSUE SERIOUSLY AND HELP SAVE AT LEAST A TRAPPED FINGER AND PERHAPS EVEN A LIFE!

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK:WHEEL SPEED SENSOR
ABS BRAKES ENGAGED WITH NO WARNING AT LOW SPEEDS (PARKING LOTS, STOP SIGNS, DRIVE THROUHS) AND GREATLY INCREASED THE STOPPING DISTANCE AND SAFETY. THIS WAS OCCOURING IN THE FALL OF '04 EALY WINTER OF '05. THIS WOULD HAPPEN ON TOTALY DRY SURFACES, AND WAS TO GREAT OF A RISK TO LEAVE UN-REPAIRED. I HAD TO PAY OVER $900.00 TO CORRECT THE ONE FRONT WHEEL AND THE OTHER(S) ARE SURE TO FOLLOW. THIS IS POOR COMPENENT DEISIGN, AND SHOULD BE REPAIRED AS DEFECTIVE. AN OWNER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DISCONECT THE ABS COMPUTER TO AVOID THE BRAKE FAILURE, IF THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO PAY THE $900.00 + PER HUB. ALSO OCCAISIONALY AFTER CLICKING DRIVER'S SEAT BELT, WITH OUT WARNING, THE BELT RELEASED AT THE LATCH. NOT UNDER STRAIN, AND AFTER IT HAD BEEN FULLY ENGAGED. WHY?
