| 2004 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT PANEL | SPEEDOMETER IS READING INCORRECTLY ON 2004 GMC YUKON. IT READS 60 MPH WHEN STOPPED AND OVER 120 MPH AT APPROX 60 MPH. MY ONLINE RESEARCH HAS UNCOVERED THOUSANDS OF THESE FAILURES AND SEVERAL POSSIBLE CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS ARE IN THE BEGINNING PROCESS. GMC, TO DATE, HAS ISSUED NO RECALL - THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT BE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE - WITHIN WARRANTY PERIOD OR NOT - WHAT DO WE DO NEXT? *TR |
| 2006 | VEHICLE SPEED 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 |
