SUSPENSION
AT 38,000 (2018) THIS VEHICLE REQUIRED A FRONT LEFT AND REAR RIGHT SHOCK REPLACEMENT DUE TO LOCKING UP. AT 61,000 MILES BOTH REAR SHOCKS LOCKED AGAIN. THIS TIME NOT REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY AND COSTING $1500 TO FIX. GMC CARE OFFERED ME $100 SERVICE VOUCHER AND NO ASSISTANCE ON THEIR FAULTY PRODUCTS. THE GMC DEALER OFFERED ME A $1500 COUPON GOOD FOR MY NEXT PURCHASE OR POSSIBLY $1500 TOWARD WHEN MY FRONT SHOCKS HAVE ISSUES. WHAT??? THE $1500 COUPON IS GOOD FOR 1 YEAR TOWARD THE PURCHASE OF A NEW GMC. EVERYONE NEEDS TO CALL GMC CARE TO COMPLAIN.1-866-790-5600 SO WE GET REIMBURSED FOR AN OBVIOUS RECALLABLE ITEM. NO VEHICLE LESS THEN 5 YEARS OLD SHOULD NEED SHOCKS REPLACED TWICE. THIS IS MY THIRD GMC YUKON DENALI AND MY LAST DUE TO GMC NOT WORKING WITH ME. DOES ANYONE THINK A VEHICLES SHOCKS SHOULD NEED TO BE REPLACE TWICE IN A 5 YEAR LIFE??

SEAT BELTS
HI, MY HUSBAND AND I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE. A FEW DAYS AFTER WE TOOK A DRIVE WITH SEVERAL PASSENGERS. THE SEATBELT BEHIND THE DRIVER'S WOULD NOT AUTOMATICALLY CLICK. THE PASSENGER HAD TO TRY SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE SEATBELT LOCKED IN PLACE. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING AND ALSO WHILE NOT DRIVING.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
CAR KEEPS RUNNING ROUGH, STUTTERING WHEN SWITCHING OFF, SMELLS LIKE GAS. ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND GOES OFF EVERY OTHER DAY. STARTED AFTER FUEL INJECTOR RECALL, DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S THE FUEL PUMP LEAKING AND UNRELATED TO THE FUEL INJECTOR PROBLEM. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY CHANGED THE GASKETS AND THE LINES WHEN FIXING THE INJECTORS. IT'S A HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP WITH DIRECT INJECTORS.

AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY
THE DASH BOARD IS CRACKED FROM THE DRIVER SIDE ALL THE WAY TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. UPON DOING RESEARCH, THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH THESE MODELS. I'VE CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER CARE AND ADVISED THEM OF THE ISSUE AS WELL AS MY CONCERN THAT THE CRACKED DASH BOARD MAY PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG AND BECOME INOPERABLE DURING AN ACCIDENT.

AIR BAGS
I AM REPORTING THAT GMC WILL NOT REPLACE THE FAULTY AIR BAGS IN MY 2008 YUKON. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER, AND HAVE REPEATEDLY TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE GMC DEALER TO HAVE THE AIR BAG RECALL TAKEN CARE OF, BUT THEY HAVE NOT DONE SO. NOW I AM READY TO SELL THE VEHICLE AND AM BEING TOLD THAT THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE IS GOING TO BE LESS BECAUSE OF THE OPEN RECALL. THIS SHOWS UP ON CARFAX. I SEEM TO HAVE NO RECOURSE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
ON 10/08/2020 I WAS DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT 5 PM WHEN THE ENGINE LOST POWER AND THE DASH STARTED FLASHING FIRST IT WAS TURNING OFF THE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM AND THE NEXT MESSAGE WAS GOING INTO REDUCED ENGINE POWER MODE. AT THAT POINT, THE VEHICLE DROPPED TO ABOUT 30 MPH WITH FULL THROTTLE AND I HAD TO MANEUVER THRU TRAFFIC TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY. NOT EASY TO DO WITH A CAR THAT WILL ONLY DO 30 MPH OR SO. WITH CAUTION LIGHTS BLINKING AND WAVING AT CARS I NEARLY GOT REAR-ENDED TWICE BEFORE I COULD GET OFF THE FREEWAY.

POWER TRAIN
WHEN IN GEAR, THE MOTOR WOULD REV AT HIGH SPEEDS WITHOUT ENGAGING. CAR IS SIX YEARS OLD WITH 104,000 MILES. VERY DANGEROUS ON THE HIGHWAY. OUR YUKON XL WOULD HAVE LIMITED POWER AND BUCK WITHOUT KEEPING SPEED. THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO GET REAR ENDED MULTIPLE TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY (I-95) AS PROPULSION WAS NONEXISTENT. HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD, THEN SLOWLY GAIN SPEED TO GET BACK ON THE ROAD AND THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES.

ENGINE
AT 148000 MILES GOING 35 MPH CYLINDER 4 ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT LIFTER COLLAPSED. I LOOKED THIS UP ON THE INTERNET AND THIS IS SUBJECT OF SEVERAL TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS. THIS IS A DEFECT, THIS ENGINE HAS RECEIVED ALL REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS AT THE DEALERSHIP, NEVER TOWED, AND NEVER OFF ROAD WITH NO MODIFICATIONS. THIS IS ABOUT A $3000 REPAIR JUST FOR THE AFFECTED BANK OF LIFTERS, $4200 TO DO BOTH BANKS OF LIFTERS. THIS IS UNHEARD OF IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE. GM KNOWS THIS IS A FAILURE OF THIS SYSTEM AND HAS DONE NOTHING BUT ISSUE BULLETINS FOR ITS CONSUMERS.

POWER TRAIN
VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHUDDER AND JERK UPON ACCELERATION AT 30K. DEALERSHIP CHANGED FLUID. AT 60K VEHICLE CONTINUED TO SHUDDER AND JERK UPON ACCELERATION AND LURCH FORWARD OR BACKWARD ALTHOUGH BRAKE WAS DEPRESSED. INITIAL, BRIEF DIAGNOSES REVEALS A BAD TORQUE CONVERTER. THIS ISSUE WAS NOTED IN 4 TSB. TSB ID #PIP5337K, TSB ID #PIP5337F, TSB ID #16-NA-014, AND TSB ID #PIP5337H. NOW THAT MY FACTORY WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED, GM MAINTAINS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS PROBLEM-- ALTHOUGH THEY SAW IT WHILE COVERED UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. ADDITIONALLY, THERE IS A CURRENT CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT WITH GM REGARDING THIS ISSUE. THE SHUDDERING, SHAKING, JERKING AND HESITATION IS RELATED TO INTERNAL ISSUES WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION AND/OR TORQUE CONVERTER CAUSING FRICTION SURFACES, HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS, AND GEARS TO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY, AND RESULTING IN METAL SHAVINGS BEING CIRCULATED THROUGHOUT THE TRANSMISSION. OVER TIME, DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION AND TORQUE CONVERTER OCCURS. CONSUMERS FACE ESCALATING REPAIRS THAT CAN INCLUDE FLUSHING THE TRANSMISSION OF METAL SHAVINGS CAUSED BY THE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION OPERATION, AND WHICH EVENTUALLY NECESSITATE THE REPLACEMENT OF COMPONENTS SUCH AS THE TORQUE CONVERTER, VALVE BODY, OR THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION. AS SUCH, THE TRANSMISSION DEFECT ENDANGERS THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS OF THE VEHICLES, AND DIMINISHES THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLES. FURTHERMORE, THE DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGES THAT METAL SHAVINGS DUE TO FRICITON COULD HAVE PASSED THROUGH THE SYSTEM CAUSING FURTHER DAMAGE BUT WILL NOT REMOVE THE TRANSMISSION FOR FULL AND THROROUGH DIAGNOSES.
