| 2001 | SERVICE BRAKES | AT HOME, STARTED TRUCK, DROVE SHORT DISTANCE ON DRIVEWAY AND APPLIED BRAKES. BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR. SAW PUDDLE OF BRAKE FLUID ON DRIVER'S SIDE MID WAY BELOW TRUCK. COULD HEAR BRAKE FLUID ESCAPING WHEN BRAKES APPLIED (PUMPING), THEN SAW FLUID DRIPPING FROM UNDER TRUCK. HAD TRUCK TOWED TO DEALER, WHO FOUND BRAKE LINE LEAKING ABOVE FUEL TANK AND NOTED ALL BRAKE LINES VERY RUSTY (EXCEPT LINE ABOVE REAR AXLE, WHICH HAD BEEN REPLACED ON 2012). DEALER FABRICATED AND REPLACED ALL BRAKE LINES FROM FRT TO JUNCTION ABOVE SPARE TIRE. *TR |
| 2006 | ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL | PERIODIC "TRACTION ACTIVE" INDICATOR LIGHT ALONG WITH GAS PEDAL INOPERABLE. BECAME MORE FREQUENT AND DURING LONG ROAD TRIP FOR WORK, ALMOST GOT INTO 3 ACCIDENTS. ONLY OCCURS WHEN STARTING OUT OR DURING ACCELERATION WHILE GOING SLOW. TWICE AT STOP SIGN WHILE CROSSING BUSY INTERSECTIONS, VEHICLE DIED IN MIDDLE OF INTERSECTION WHEN PULLING OUT FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. CAUSED TRAFFIC TO STOP AND ALMOST HAD COLLISION. ONCE HAPPENED WHILE MAKING LEFT TURN AT INTERSECTION. SAME RESULTS. SAW MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON FORUMS ABOUT GMC YUKON. USUALLY HAPPENS AFTER 40K (WARRANTY EXPIRED) I JUST WENT OVER 40K LAST WEEK. SEEMS LIKE PROBLEM STARTED BACK IN 2003 VERSION, FROM ALL OTHER COMPLAINTS I READ ABOUT. REPAIR: DEALER FOUND INCORRECT READINGS FROM RIGHT FRONT WHEEL SPEED SENSOR, SENSOR ONLY AVAILABLE AS PART OF RF HUB ASSY. PN 015233113 $377.36 ($600+ INSTALLED) I EXPLAINED ALL OTHER COMPLAINING ABOUT SAME PROBLEM AND HOW THIS IS A VERY BIG SAFETY ISSUE. DEALER SAID THEY CAN DO NOTHING. *TR |
