ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, SUSPENSION
WE WERE COMING BACK FROM A TRIP WITH MY CHILDREN AND THIS VEHICLE WAS BARELY 2 WEEKS OLD WITH 0 MILES AND WE WERE ON A HIGHWAY WHEN ALL THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON THE DASH WENT OFF. IT WAS FLAGGING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, THE ENGINE, THE BRAKES. HONESTLY ALL THE LIGHTS POSSIBLE WENT OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS LAGGING AND IT FELT FORCE WHEN WE PUSHED ON THE GAS. OUR HANDS WERE GRIPPING THE STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP IT IN LANE TILL WE COULD GET OFF.

AIR BAGS
I HAVE CONTACTED GM AND THE LOCAL DEALERSHIPS FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS ASKING TO HAVE MY AIRBAGS REPLACED IN MY 2008 GMC YUKON PER THE DIRECTIVE OF NHTSA. EACH TIME I HAVE BEEN TOLD GM DOES NOT AGREE WITH NHTSA RECALL AND GM REFUSES TO REPLACE DANGEROUS AIRBAGS. I HAVE EMAILS AND OTHER MESSAGES FROM GM. I NOTICED RECENTLY THEY WERE ORDERED TO REPLACE ALL AIRBAGS. HOWEVER GM STILLS SAYS THEY DO NOT AGREE. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

ALL OF A SUDDEN MY DASHBOARD WILL LIGHT UP SAYING SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, BRAKE SYSTEM, ABS , PARK ASSIST OFF AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS UP AND BLINKS . I WILL LOOSE MY BRAKES I THEN HAVE TO PUMP MY BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES TO GET TO EVEN SLOW DOWN OR STOP . IT'S ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I AM DRIVING DOWN A RESIDENTIAL STREET. WHEN I PULL OVER TURN THE TRUCK OFF AND GOES BACK TO NORMAL FOR A SHORT DISTANCE. WEATHER DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A FACTOR OR SPEED. TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY DON'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. HAD THEM REPLACE BEARINGS AS WELL AS SPEED SENSORS AND IT IS STILL HAPPENING. AND I HAD A CODE COME UP FOR CYLINDER MISFIRE AND KNOCK SENSOR. THEN TAKE IT GARAGE AND NOTHING IS WRONG.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEAT BELTS
WHILE WORKING ON AN AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT I ENCOUNTERED 2 DISTINCT PROBLEMS WITH MY AIRBAG AND VEHICLE SYSTEM. 1. THE MAIN UNDERHOOD FUSE PANEL ON MY VEHICLE HAS PORTION OF OXIDATION ON THE FUSES THEMSELVES. THIS OXIDATION IS CAUSING FUSES TO APPEAR INTACT BUT ARE CAUSING THE CIRCUIT TO OPEN. THIS WAS THE ROOT CAUSE OF MY AIRBAG SYSTEM TO NOT BE OPERATING PROPERLY. 2. WHILE DIAGNOSING THE AIRBAG SYSTEM, I WAS CAUTIOUS ABOUT UNPLUGGIN THE BATTERY DURING ANY TROUBLESHOOTING THAT I WAS PERFORMING. BUT, AT THE END OF THE DIAGNOSIS PERIOD AND ALL MODULES/SYSTEM WERE RECONNECTED TO ELECTRICAL MATING CONNECTORS I RECONNECTED THE BATTERY AND STARTED THE VEHICLE TO COOL THE INTERIOR. THE CENTRAL AIRBAG MODULE WHICH IS LOCATED IN CENTER CONSOLE WAS ALREADY ELECTRICALLY CONNECTED BUT NOT MOUNTED. WHEN THE MODULE WAS MOVED INTO POSITION AND THE MOUNTING POINTS OF THE MODULE TOUCHED CHASSIS GROUND OF THE VEHICLE THE SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS AND FRONT SEAT BELT SQUIBS DEPLOYED. IT APPERAS TO ME THAT THE GROUND OF THE MODULE AND THE VEHICLE COMMON WIRE ARE NOT INTERNALLY CONNECTED. THIS APPARENTLY MAY CAUSE A FLOATING CIRCUIT IN THE AIRBAG MODULE THAT WHEN CHASSIS GROUND (EXTERIOR MOUNTING SURFACE OF THE MODULE) HAS A POTENTIAL CHANGE, THE AIRBAGS MAY GO OFF INADVERTENTLY. THE CONCERN HERE IS THAT CORROSION ON OLDER VEHICLES MAY CAUSE THIS CHASSIS GROUND TO BE COMPROMISED AND CAUSE RANDOM AIRBAG DEPLOYMENTS TO OCCUR. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. BODILY INJURY COULD HAVE OCCURRED IF OCCUPANT WAS POSITIONED DIFFERENTLY.

WHILE DRIVING, MY A/C CLIMATE CONTROL HAS FAILED IN 2017 GMC YUKON (MILAGE 78,734). THIS HAS CAUSED A DANGEROUS PROBLEM WHEN THE WINDSHIELD FOGGED UP AND I COULDN'T SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD ALMOST CAUSING A CRASH. I WAS SCARED TO DEATH FROM THIS INCIDENT DRIVING ON I270 HERE IN MD. I AM BOTH SHOCKED AND APPALLED THERE IS NO RECALL ISSUED AND THAT GM USED LEAKY AIR CONDITIONERS THAT BUCKLE UNDER PRESSURE IN MANY 2014-2017 TRUCKS AND SUVS. WHETHER IT'S BUSTED HOSES OR LEAKY CONDENSORS, THOUSANDS OF GM OWNERS LIKE ME ARE UPSET THAT A NATIONWIDE RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED TO REPAIR THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM. IT'S SUCH A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM THAT THERE'S A NATIONWIDE BACKORDER FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS. MANY OF THE ORIGINAL REPLACEMENT PARTS WERE DISCONTINUED TO TO THE DEFECT. SEE TSB PIE0340. ALONG WITH THE ALLEGED PROBLEMS WITH THE COMPRESSOR TO CONDENSER LINES, A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT SAYS THE AIR CONDITIONER CONDENSERS ARE DEFECTIVE BECAUSE THE MATERIALS USED TO MANUFACTURE THE CONDENSERS ARE DEFECTIVE. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL SHOP TO FIND OUT MY CONDENSER NEEDS REPLACING AND THE SERVICE TECH TOLD ME IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY BUT HAVE HAD MANY PROBLEMS WITH THE CONDENSER ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE . HE ALSO AGREED WITH ME THAT IT SHOULD BE A RECALL SINCE THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY VEHICLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. MY DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME $160 JUST TO DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM, ALTHOUGH THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PROBLEM FIRST NOTED IN BULLETIN # PIE0340 DATE: JUL 2015. THEN THEY ESTIMATE REPLACEMENT OF DEFECTIVE PARTS TO BE $2000!! I CALLED GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE CASE # 9-6360482931 I ASKED WHY I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THIS PROBLEM WHEN I BOUGHT THIS USED VEHICLE AND THEY DECLINED TO ANSWER. I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE HAD I HAVE KNOWN OF THIS SAFETY DEFECT. I RESPECTFULLY ASK THAT YOU HAVE GM ISSUE A RECALL.

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED FROM THE DRIVERS SIDE TO THE PASSENGER SIDE IN MULTIPLE PLACES ON TOP OF AND ALONG SIDE OF THE INNER AIRBAGS AND UNDER A COLLISION THESE PIECES OF THE DASH COULD AND IN MY OPINION AND THE OPINION OF GM BODY REPAIRMAN WILL VERY LIKELY BECOME A FLYING PROJECTILE CAUSING POSSIBLE INJURY OR DEATH TO OCCUPANTS. I AM REQUESTING IMMEDIATE REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF THIS UNSAFE SITUATION BEFORE TURNING IT OVER TO COUNCIL FOR RECOVERY. ALSO BE ADVISED THAT ALL PRECAUTIONS WERE TAKEN TO PROTECT THE DASHBOARD WITH USE OF WINDSHIELD SUN DEFLECTORS/SHADES.
