ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
MY WIFE AND I HAD JUST PURCHASED A USED 2007 GMC YUKON. LITTLE DID WE KNOW ABOUT THE MAJOR ISSUE THE TRUCK HAS WITH THE REDUCED POWER READING THAT COMES UP. I REALLY THINK THAT GMC NEEDS TO PUT OUT A RECALL FOR THESE ISSUES. MY WIFE WAS ON HER WAY HOME FROM A WORK MEETING AND DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WITH HER SISTER AND MY WIFE'S AND MY DAUGHTER IN THE GMC YUKON AND SHE WAS DOING THE SPEED LIMIT AND ALL OF A SUDDEN SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON. SHE CALLED ME AND SHE WAS IN A PANIC. SHE HAD TO PULL OFF THE FREEWAY AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND WHEN SHE DID THE VEHICLE HAD DIED IT TURNED OFF AND SHE HAD OUR 2 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER WITH OUT A/C AND IN 100 DEGREE WEATHER. THIS ISSUE PUTS THE PEOPLE'S FAMILIES AT RISK THAT OWN THESE VEHICLES AND ALSO OTHER DRIVERS FAMILIES AT RISK YOU CAN NOT REPLACE A PERSONS LIFE IF ITS TAKEN AWAY AND THE HARDSHIP IT CAUSES BUT YOU CAN REPLACE A VEHICLE SO WHY NOT COME UP WITH SOLUTION SO THE ROAD MAY BECOME A LITTLE BIT OF A SAFER PLACE. WHEN MY WIFE HAD THIS HAPPEN OTHER DRIVERS WERE NOT COURTEOUS OR UNDERSTANDING WHEN SOMEONE PUTS THEIR HAZARD LIGHTS ON THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG, THEY JUST KEPT FLYING PAST HER. NOW WITH SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME GM MAKE THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE RESOLVED. I HAVE LOOKED UP AND SAW CHEVY DOESN'T HAVE THIS ISSUE AND CHEVY IS THE SAME COMPANY. IF THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ASSOCIATION COULD CREATE THIS RECALL AND THEY COULD USE THE SAME PART FROM CHEVY THEN SURELY THIS ISSUE WOULD BE FIXED AND IT WOULD BE A SAFER VEHICLE. IF YOU WERE A COMPANY OWNER WOULDN'T YOU WANT TO STAND BY YOUR COMPANIES PRODUCTION AND CREATE SOLUTIONS IF THERE WERE THESE COMMON ISSUES? WOULDN'T YOU WANT TO HELP MAKE THE ROAD A SAFER PLACE BY ONE LITTLE FIX? IT WOULDN'T

MY 2007 YUKON XL DENALI DASHBOARD CRACKD IN THREE DIFFERENT PLACES. AT THE AIRBAG, LEFT SIDE TOP OF DASH AT INSTRAMENT CLUSTER AND IN THE MIDDLE TOP. THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTEE BUT GM AND THE DEALER REFUSED TO MAKE THE REPAIR. ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH GM AND THE DEALER BUT WAS REFUSED IN 2010, 2012 AND 2014. I AM CONCERED THAT F THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYS THE DASH DEBRIS WITH DAMAGE ME AND MY FAMILY AS IT DID ON MY SISTERS GM VEHICLE.

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 4 YEARS NOW. I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ISSUES WITH IT UP UNTIL JULY OF LAST YEAR (2014). I EXPERIENCED MY CAR JERKING ERRATICALLY AND HAD TO PULL OVER. THE CAR LOST SPEED AND COULD NOT ACCELERATE. I HAD TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC WHO THEN SAID I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. I HAVE HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED. ABOUT 6 MONTHS LATER THE JERKING STARTED AGAIN ON AND OFF, NO LOSS OF SPEED AND IT WOULD ONLY JERK GOING FORM FIRST GEAR TO SECOND. I HAVE NOT WORRIED ABOUT IT UNTIL NOW BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD ONLY JERK EVERY SO OFTEN. NOW MY TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILIZER SERVICE WARNING MESSAGE POPS UP. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO SEVERAL PLACES I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT I NEEDED A THROTTLE BODY, ABS MODULE AND BOTH ARE NOT CHEAP TO FIX THEY ALL WANT TO CHARGE ME $500- $1200 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I BEGAN RESEARCHING AND SEE THAT THE ISSUE I AM HAVING MAY BE DUE TO A MANUFACTURING ISSUE. I PLAN TO TAKE IT TO ANOTHER MECHANIC BEFORE I START PAYING FOR MORE COSTLY REPAIRS. IF FOR SOME REASON THIS IS A MANUFACTURING ISSUE, THESE VEHICLES NEED TO BE RECALLED BEFORE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT HAPPENS.

I NOTICED A SMALL CRACK IN THE DASH JUST ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE VENT ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO AND HAS PROGRESSIVELY GROWN INTO THE ENTIRE DASH BEING CRACKED WITH DIFFERENT CRACKS GOING IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS MIGHT AFFECT THE AIRBAGS CAUSING THEM TO ACCIDENTALLY DEPLOY. I'VE CALLED GMC AND THEY HAVE NO COMPLAINT BULLETINS ON THIS ISSUE. I'VE CALLED A GMC SERVICE DEALER AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT FOR THIS WOULD COST ME IN EXCESS OF $900.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON THE INTERSTATE I APPROACHED SLOW MOVING TRAFFIC. UPON SLOWING DOWN MY VEHICLE DISPLAYED THE FOLLOWING MESSAGES: "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL", "SERVICE STABILITRACK", "REDUCED ENGINE POWER". THE SUV WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 15MPH REQUIRING MY TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE SHOOK VIOLENTLY UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE. AFTER 10 MINUTES OF SITTING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I STARED THE ENGINE AGAIN. THE SUV STARTED RIGHT UP BUT THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT REMAINED ON. THIS WAS A TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE ON A BUSY STRETCH OF HWY 88 OUTSIDE OF CHICAGO. I HOPE OTHERS DO NOT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS EXPERIENCE.

THIS IS ANOTHER INCIDENT THAT OCCURRED THE SAME WEEK AS MY LAST COMPLAINT. WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM LUNCH I SLOWED THE VEHICLE AS I WAS GOING DOWN A HILL, THIS DID NOT REQUIRE ANY USE OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. UPON SLOWING DOWN MY VEHICLE DISPLAYED THE FOLLOWING MESSAGES: "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL", "SERVICE STABILITRACK", "REDUCED ENGINE POWER". THE SUV WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 15MPH REQUIRING MY TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE SHOOK VIOLENTLY UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE. AFTER 10 MINUTES OF SITTING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I STARED THE ENGINE AGAIN. THE SUV STARTED RIGHT UP BUT THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT REMAINED ON UNTIL THE FOLLOWING DAY. ENGINE CODES LEAD TO A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY POSITION SENSOR WHICH WAS REPLACED AFTER THE INCIDENT ON 7/13. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE GMC DEALER TODAY WHO INFORMED ME OF THE SAME PROBLEM YET AGAIN. THESE ARE EITHER BAD PARTS OR A SOME BIGGER GM ISSUE.

DURING NORMAL USE ON OPENING THE REAR LIFT DOOR OPEN AND 1/3 OF THE WAY, IT STOPPED AND SLAMMED VERY HARD THAT THE WINDOW ABOVE LATCH RELEASED AND POPPED OPEN. I'VE CHECKED ALL THE SECURITY SETTING BUT TO DATE, THE DOOR DOES NOT OPEN PASS 1/3 OF THE WAY. LUCKILY THERE WERE NO FINGERS ANYWHERE AROUND THE DOOR. THIS COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY IF ONE IS NOT EXPECTING THE DOOR WILL SLAM SHUT.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WILL BE DRIVING AND MY TRUCK WILL JUST LOSE POWER. I PUSH ON THE GAS PEDAL AND IT GOES NO WHERE. I HAVE TO COAST OFF THE HIGHWAY AND THEN I CAN STOP AND TURN IT OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN START IT BACK UP WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I HAVE CHANGED THE TPS 2 TIMES, THE ENTIRE THROTTLE BODY, AND THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR AND IT'S STILL DOING IT.

THE INSIDE OF THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HANDLE CROME HAS PEELED AWAY CAUSING A SHAPE EDGE. THERE HAS BEEN A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT ISSUED BY GMC IN BULLETIN NO: 09239A BUT WAS TOLD MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED. I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THEY WILL NOT COVER IT DUE TO MY VIND NOT BEING INCLUDED IN THIS SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT. I FEEL MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE COVERED DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE OUTSIDE OF THE SAME DOOR HANDLE HAS PULLED AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE AND BOLT HAS PULLED OUT OF THE FRAME. I THINK GM NEEDS TO STEP UP AND TAKE CARE OF THESE ISSUES ON ALL THERE VEHICLES NOT JUST WHO EVER THEY CHOOSE!! I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER GMC VEHICLE AGAIN! AFTER MANY HOURS OF RESEARCH I FOUND SEVERAL OTHER CUSTOMERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM! WHEN I CALLED TO MAKE APPT TO HAVE IT FIXED EVEN THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THEIR VEHICLES! IF THE DEALERS KNOW THERE IS AN ISSUE IM SURE GM IS AWARE A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED THEIR JUST WATING TO SEE HOW LONG THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT!!
