2000 GMC YUKON XL

Tire Size: 265 70 16. While driving on a straight and level highway, the right rear tire sidewall completely shredded. Tire lost all air pressure and separated from the rim. I bought four General Grabber tires in July 2021. This is the second tire that the sidewall shredded. The first one shredded on the left rear side in July of 2024. There are a lot of General Grabber tires being recalled for over-cured sidewalls but it's strange that there are no recalls on this particular tire.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 GMC YUKON XL. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE MADE A SPUTTERING NOISE AND STALLED. THE CONTACT THEN STATED THAT THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE AND CHECK ENGINE INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT'S BOYFRIEND CALLED SMITH BUICK GMC AT 321-405-3488 (510 E NASA BLVD, MELBOURNE, FL 32901), BUT THE CALL WAS DISCONNECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

APPLIED PRESSURE TO BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WENT TO THE FLOOR. TOOK THE CAR TO A MIDAS MUFFLER GARAGE AS IT WAS CLOSEST FOR DIAGNOSIS AND FOUND THAT THE BRAKE LINE HAD RUSTED AWAY. IT HAD RUSTED OUT AT THE POINT WHERE IT GOES OVER THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE SEEN THIS MANY TIMES ON THESE CARS. *TR

THE FIRST TIME THE ABS EBCU FAILED WE HAD ONLY OWNED THE CAR A FEW YEARS. WE FIGURED OUT SOMETHING WAS WRONG BY THE CONTINUOUS GROWLING BUZZ UNDER THE VEHICLE. WE HAD TO FULL THE FUSE TO DISCONNECT THE UNIT TO PREVENT IT FROM RUNNING DOWN THE BATTERY WHILE WE TRIED TO LEARN EXACTLY WHAT WAS WRONG. ----------- ON THE GOOD SIDE, THE CAR RUNS FINE WITHOUT IT. ON THE BAD SIDE, EBCU REPLACEMENT IS A RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. GM CHARGES $1400 FOR THE STUPID PART, THE TOTAL WAS JUST UNDER $2000 BY THE TIME ALL WAS DONE.----------- IT WOULD BE ONE THING IF THE EBCU WAS SOME GREAT INVENTION THAT REALLY IMPROVED THE HUMAN CONDITION. IT IS NOT. NOT ONLY DOES IT NEVER HELP, IT IS ACTUALLY DANGEROUS.---------- ANY TIME YOU TRY TO STOP ON BUMPY ROADS THE EBCU FIGHTS YOU. MANY TIMES I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DRIVE INTO AN ACCIDENT AT AN INTERSECTION BECAUSE THERE WAS A BUMP AND THEN THE STUPID ABS UNIT WOULD NOT LET ME BRAKE. IT FORCES THE BRAKE PEDAL UP AND LETS THE CAR ROLL FORWARD WHEN I AM FRANTICALLY TRYING TO STOP THE CAR.---------- HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE WISHED I DIDN'T HAVE POWER BRAKES AT ALL! ---------- THE REASON I FOUND THIS WEBSITE IS BECAUSE NOW AT 130782 THE STUPID THING HAS FAILED AGAIN. NOW WITHOUT A WARRANTY, BUT WITH THE INTERNET, I LEARNED HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE OF THIS UNIT. THERE ARE MANY PAGES ABOUT IT AMONG GM CAR ENTHUSIAST GROUPS, AND EVEN EBAY AUCTIONS OFFERING TO FIX THE THINGS! ---------- THE EBCU IS IN A TIGHT SPOT YOU CAN ONLY GET TO WITH ONE HAND WHILE LYING UNDER THE VEHICLE, AND A QUART OF BRAKE FLUID DRIPS OUT ON YOU AS YOU SEQUENTIALLY UNDO THE 5 BRAKE LINES THAT LEAD TO THE UNIT.---------- MY GENERAL OPINION ABOUT AUTO DESIGN IS THAT WHOEVER APPROVES THE FINAL DESIGN OF SOME PART SHOULD HAVE TO CHANGE ONE OF THEM AT HOME WITH TOOLS COMMONLY AVAILABLE TO AN AVERAGE CITIZEN! *TR

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE AND TOWING BOAT DEPRESSED BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WENT TO THE FLOOR. THERE WAS NO PRIOR WARNING THAT BRAKES WERE ABOUT TO FAIL. USED EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP VEHICLE. AFTER GETTING VEHICLE TO SECURE LOCATION, OBSERVED STEADY STREAM OF BRAKE FLUID RUNNING ONTO GROUND FROM UNDER DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. APPARENTLY ROTTEN BRAKE LINES THAT RUN FROM FRONT OF VEHICLE TO REAR FAILED. *TR

DRIVING ON TWO LANE ROAD AT 35 MPH. WEATHER WAS CLEAR, ROADS DRY, TEMP 86F.APPROACHING A HILL WITH INTERSECTION AT BOTTOM OF HILL, APPLIED BRAKES AND BRAKE PEDAL HAD NO RESISTANCE, NEARLY TO FLOOR WITH VERY LITTLE BRAKING. BRAKE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WHEN BRAKES APPLIED(NOT BEFORE). USED PARKING BRAKE TO STOP TRUCK AT INTERSECTION, BARELY MISSING COLLIDING WITH CROSSING TRAFFIC. WAS ABLE TO GET TRUCK TO TRUSTED MECHANIC, WHO DETERMINED EVERY INCH OF BRAKE LINE FROM ABS BOOSTER TO ALL FOUR WHEELS BADLY CORRODED, LIKE PAPER. LINE WAS PERFORATED OVER REAR AXLE CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID, ALL HYDRAULIC PRESSURE AND NO BRAKING ABILITY. MECHANIC IS CERTIFIED MASTER MECHANIC WITH OVER 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE, SAID HAS NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE EVEN IN ANTIQUE OR ABANDONED VEHICLES. *TT

I WAS DRIVING MY YUKON XL 2000 WHEN ALL OF SUDDEN THE CAR LOST POWER STEERING. I LOOKED UP THE PROBLEM ON WEB AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS A ODI NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 05V005000 THAT ADDRESSED THIS PROBLEM. WHEN I CALLED GM THEY INDICATED THAT THE CAR VIN WAS NOT IN THE RANGE FOR THE RECALL. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO GM TO GET IT FIXED THEY INDICATED THAT FAILURE WAS EXACTLY WHAT WAS DESCRIBED IN THE REPORT 05V005000. I WAS LUCKY THAT I WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND NOT MY WIFE. I HAD MY 13 MONTH SON IN THE CAR AND THIS FAILURE COULD OF CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I DID HURT MY NECK WHEN THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED TRYING TO CONTROL AND STEER THE CAR. FOR THE SAKE OF OTHER FAMILIES DRIVING 2000 YUKONS THIS RECALL 05V005000 SHOULD BE BROADEN TO INCLUDE MORE YULON 2000 CARS THAT WERE PRODUCED IN THAT YEAR BEFORE SOMEBODY ELSE GETS HURT. *TR

FUEL PUMP IS WHISTLING AND FUEL LEAK IS APPARENT WHEN PARKED OVERNIGHT IN GARAGE. ALREADY REPLACED ONE PUMP AT 96,000 MILES. ALREADY HAD SERVICE ON THE MELTED WIRES 2 YEARS AGO. CAN GM PROVIDE THE COST OF THE GM BRAND FUEL PUMP SO IT CAN BE REPLACED? *JB

GMC YUKON 2000 AND ABOVE MODELS. TAIL GATE WINDOW INSTALLATION. WINDOW IS ATTACHED TO VEHICLE WITH PLASTIC FASTENERS WHICH TEND TO BREAK AND CAUSE THE WINDOW TO COME SEPARATED FROM THE WINDOW FRAME. THE WINDOW IS THEN ATTACHED TO THE VEHICLE PRIMARILY BY THE WINDOW LOCK. TO MY KNOWLEDGE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY 2000 YUKON XL, TO MY DAUGHTER'S 2001 YUKON XL AND WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP SHOP FOR REPAIR I WAS TOLD BY THE SHOP PERSONNEL THAT THEY HAD FIXED SEVERAL LIKE VEHICLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE REPLACEMENT WINDOW IS COMPLETELY REDESIGNED INDICATING THAT THE FACTORY HAS BECOME AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT HAS NO CALLED FOR A RECALL. THIS HAS BEEN APPEARING FOR SEVERAL YEARS. THE ONLY WAY I HAVE TO DATE WAS TO PLACE THE INCIDENT DATE AS TODAY'S DATE. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE FUEL GAUGE READINGS WERE INACCURATE. THE DEALER REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP WHICH CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. THERE IS A NHTSA RECALL # 05V155000, CONCERNING THE FUEL PUMP. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. UPDATED 8/14/2006 - THE FUEL PUMP WIRING MELTED INSIDE THE FUEL TANK. *NM

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE ENGINE STALLS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC. A NHTSA RECALL, #05V155000 WAS PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE CONCERNING, THE FUEL PUMP HOWEVER, THE RECALL DID NOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT OFFER A SECOND REPAIR WITHOUT CHARGE UNDER THE RECALL.

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HAVING RECALL WORK COMPLETED UNDER RECALL 05V155000 CONCERNING THE FUEL SYSTEM, THE EVAPORATIVE EMISSION HOSE WAS BROKEN BY THE DEALERSHIP. NO REPAIRS WERE MADE BECAUSE THE BROKEN PART IS NO LONGER BEING MANUFACTURED. HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE IS NOW EMITTING FUMES INSIDE THE CONTACT'S GARAGE WHERE THE VEHICLE IS BEING STORED. THE CONSUMER STATED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. UPDATED 02/28/06. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE GOING 65MPH A LOUD RACING NOISE COULD BE HEARD IN THE TRANSMISSION, THE GEARS SOUNDED LIKE THEY WERE GRINDING, THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS THEN TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT TRANSMISSION SHOP. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED; THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN FOR A PERIOD OF TIME WHEN THE NOISES STARTED AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP ONCE AGAIN TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION INSPECTED. UPON INSPECTION THE TRANSMISSION WAS FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE. NO REPAIRS MADE AT THIS TIME. THE MANUFACTURER HAS BEEN ALERTED.

I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE NHTSA IN 2005 FOR MY ANTI LOCK BRAKES ACTIVATING EVERY TIME I SLOW DOWN TO STOP. GMC SENT ME A RECALL NOTICE IN 2005 AND I BROUGHT MY YUKON XL IN TO FIX IT . THEY FIXED IT ,BUT NOW IT IS DOING IT AGAIN . *NM

MY 2000 YUKON XL PARKING BRAKE WORE OUT PRE-MATURELY, I THINK THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM. IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR THE OWNER AND THE PUBLIC. *JB

MY GMC YUKON XL HAS BRAKING AND FUEL SYSTEM PROBLEMS, I HAVE HAD 1 ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THE YUKONS BRAKES DEACTIVATING WHILE HITTING A SMALL BUMP ON THE STREET WHILE TRYING TO AVOID THE ACCIDENT. I HAVE CONTACTED GMC AND ALL THEY SAID IS THEY WOULD OFFER ME A 1,000 REBATE ON THE NEXT PURCHASE OF ANOTHER VEHICLE, ALTHOUGH THEY ADVERTISED THIS DEFECTIVE PRODUCT ON ("CNN") ALONG WITH THE OTHER DEFECTS. THERE HAS BEEN OTHER HIDDEN RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE AND THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT PROPERLY TELL OR NOTIFY ME. *JB

FIRST PASSENGER WINDOW STOPPED WORKING, FOUND OUT IT WAS THE WINDOW REGULATOR. HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE PART FOR MONTHS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY BOTH GM AND MY AUTO PART STORE THERE IS A SHORTAGE AND THE AUTO PART STORE SAYS ALOT OF GM OWNERS HAVE BEEN REQUESTING THAT PART. STILL WAITING AND DRIVER WINDOW IS STARTING TO GO. THERE MUST BE A PROBLEM. PLEASE CHECK INTO. *NM

I SPOKE WITH A LARRY AT THE NHTSA BACK IN FEBRUARY OF THIS YEAR. FAXED HIM A COPY OF THE BILL I HAD FOR THE POWER STEERING IN MY YUKON XL SAYS THERE WAS GOING TO BE MORE INVESTIGATING AND THIS RECALL FOR THE POWER STEERING MAY BE EXPANDED TO MY TRUCK..THE 1500 SERIES BUT I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING. JUST A FUNNY THING THAT THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO ME THE POWER STEERING CUT OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN, BUT IT DOESN'T CONCERN THE 1500. *NM

ON MY 2000 GMC YUKON XL, A COMPUTER MODULE FOR THE ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE AND GOES OUT CAUSING A SMALL ELECTRIC MOTOR TO STAY ON RUNNING THE BATTERY DOWN. THE FUSE FOR THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM MUST BE REMOVED, THUS DISABLING THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM TO KEEP THE BATTERY FROM DYING. THIS HAS ALREADY HAPPENED TWICE ON MY VEHICLE AND ALSO TO MANY OTHERS WITH 1999-2002 YUKONS. GMC KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM BUT REFUSES TO CORRECT IT. *NM

ANTI-LOCK BRAKES START ACTIVATING AT SLOW SPEEDS. REPORTED TO DEALER WHO TOLD ME IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND IS EXPENSIVE TO FIX. HAS NOT CAUSED A CRASH OR INJURY YET. *JB

OUR GAS GAUGE ON OUR 2000 GMC YUKON COMPLETELY QUIT WORKING. TOOK IT IN THINKING IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND FOUND OUT THE FUEL PUMP WAS BROKEN. THE PROBLEM THAT COST US A LOT OF MONEY WAS THAT THE FUEL PUMP IS LOCATED INSIDE THE GAS TANK AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE GAS TANK TO FIX THE PROBLEM. FIRST, WHY WOULD THIS HAPPEN ON A CAR THIS NEW WITH ONLY AROUND 50,000 MILES AND SECOND, WHY PUT THE FUEL PUMP INSIDE THE GAS TANK SO THAT IT IS SO EXPENSIVE TO FIX? *JB

MY ANTI LOCK BRAKES ACTIVATE AT ABOUT 5 MPH CONTINUALLY . I HIT A FENCE AND DECIDED TO PULL OUT THE ANTI LOCK FUSE WHICH ALSO DISABLED MY CRUISE CONTROL. *NM

ABS SENSOR FALURE PLEASE PUSH FOR RECALL!!!!!!! WHEN BRAKING TO A STOP ,THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO MOVE FORWARD FARTHER THAN WHAT IS NORMALLY EXPECTED WITH A VIBRATING IN THE BRAKE PEDAL. NEARLY CAUSED A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT! PULLED ABS FUSE UNTILL I CAN GET MORE INFO ON HOW TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM.

I PULLED A BOAT WITH THE VEHICLE (2000 GMC YUKON XL 2500) ABOUT 275 MILES TO A LAKE AND PUT IT IN THE WATER. TOOK THE BOAT OUT OF THE WATER AND STARTED BACKING IT INTO A SPACE WHEN I HEARD A STRANGE "POP". THEN REALIZED THAT ALL POWER ASSISTED BRAKING AND STEERING WAS GONE. HAD TO LEAVE THE BOAT WHERE IT WAS, AND WAS HAPPY THE PROBLEM DIDN'T OCCUR WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY FAMILY. TESTED THE VEHICLE TO MAKE SURE I COULD STEER AND STOP IT UNDER CAREFUL CIRCUMSTANCES, THEN DROVE IT DIRECTLY, SLOWLY, AND CAREFULLY TO THE DEALER ABOUT 50 MILES. MY OWN INVESTIGATION FOUND A RECALL ID NUMBER 05V005000: "HYDRAULIC PUMP DRIVESHAFT THAT CAN FRACTURE, RESULTING IN IMMEDIATE LOSS OF HYDRAULIC POWER STEERING ASSIST. ON CERTAIN VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH HYDRO-BOOST POWER BRAKES, THE SAME CONDITION CAN RESULT IN LOSS OF POWER ASSIST FOR BRAKING AFTER THE RESERVE PRESSURE IS DEPLETED." THE DEALER CONFIRMED THIS WAS EXACTLY THE PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE, BUT THE RECALL DID NOT COVER MY VIN - [XXX]. SEEMED STRANGE TO ME THAT 98000+ OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME TYPE FROM THE SAME YEAR ARE COVERED, BUT MINE WASN'T. NOW I SEE THAT THERE ARE AT LEAST TWO OTHER COMPLAINTS HERE WITH THE SAME CIRCUMSTANCES AS MINE. I THINK THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE WIDENED. THOUGH I GOT NO INITIAL HELP FROM THE DEALERSHIP, I CALLED THE GMC RECALL 800 NUMBER AND THEY DIRECTED ME BACK TO THE DEALERS GENERAL MANAGER AND SAID I SHOULD HAVE HIM SPEAK TO THE GM REPRESENTATIVE ABOUT COMPENSATION IN MY CASE. I DID THAT, AND AT LEAST THEY DID COVER THE COST OF THE PART (ABOUT $500), BUT NOT THE LABOR OF $193 TO REPLACE THE PUMP. I ASKED TO KEEP THE OLD PUMP AND WAS TOLD THAT I COULD, BUT WAS NOT GIVEN THE PUMP OR AN EXPLANATION WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PICKED UP. THE RECEIPT FROM THE DEALER SEEMS TO INDICATE A "CORE RETURN" UNDER PARTS, SO I GUESS I WOULD HAVE HAD TO PAY TO KEEP THE OLD PART AND NOT RETURN IT. SINCE THE REPAIR, THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKING HAVE WORKED PROPERLY, EVEN IN TOWING. *JB UPDATED 07/19/2012 *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT T

ABS SENSOR WENT BAD IN FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL BEARING ASSEMBLY. ABS WOULD GO OFF ON DRY ROADS JUST BEFORE VEHICLE STOPPED. SOMETIMES THIS CAUSED OUR VEHICLE TO TAKE LONGER TO STOP. WE HAD THE WHOLE WHEEL BEARING ASSEMBLY REPLACED BY A NON DEALER GARAGE TO THE TUNE OF $382.47. NOW ONE YEAR LATER THE PROBLEM IS BACK. I THINK GM HAS A BIG PROBLEM HERE AND SHOULD RECALL ALL THESE. OUR 2000 GMC YUKON XL ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES ON IT.

WHILE APPLYING BRAKES AT VERY LOW SPEED THE ABS SYSTEM ACTIVATES RESULTING IN AN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE. NO WARNING LIGHT GOES ON. THIS OCCURS ON A DRY SURFACE WITH NO WHEEL SLIP. 29,000 MILES ON VEHICLE.

WE ARE AFFECTED BY THE RECENT RECALL CONCERNING THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THE FUEL SENDING UNIT AND ARE WAITING FOR THE NEW HARNESS PARTS TO ARRIVE. HOWEVER, ABOUT THE SAME TIME WE BEGAN HAVING TROUBLE WITH THAT, WE ALSO BEGAN TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH A STICKING ACCELERATOR. AFTER STARTING AND PLACING THE VEHICLE IN GEAR, THE THROTTLE STICKS AND IS OBVIOUSLY A MECHANICAL PROBLEM RATHER THAN A LUBRICATION ISSUE. ONCE THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO ROLL, THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY. WE AHEV LIVED WITH THIS FOR SOME TIME AND HAVE RECENTLY DRIVEN TWO OTHER GMC PRODUCTS (2001 GMC 1500 YUKON XL AND A 2001 CHEVY 1500 PICKUP), THEY TOO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM QUITE CERTAIN THIS IS GOING TO BECOME A RECALL EVENT DUE TO THE FACT THAT WITH THE STICKING OF THE ACCELERATOR, THE VEHICLE OFTEN LURCHES FORWARD AFTER ENOUGH PRESSURE HAS BEEN EXERTED. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT THE STATUS OF THIS PROBLEM IS. THANK YOU, DON TITUS 817-705-1064

ANTILOCK BRAKES SLIP AT LOW SPEADS AND FAIL TO STOP VEHICLE. BOTH MY WIFE AND I HAVE HAD INCIDENCES IN RECENT WEEKS WHERE WE NEEDED TO RELEASE THE PEDAL AND RESET STOPPING JUST BARELY IN TIME BEFORE A COLLISION. WE PLAN ON BRING THE CAR INTO GMC THIS WEEK. NO INDICATOR IS ILLUMINATED. OUR COMPLAINT SOUNDS VERY MUCH LIKE NHTSA ACTION NUMBER PE05020 OPENED ON 4-28-05.

THE POWER STEERING PUMP FAILED WHILE DRIVING IN THE MOUNTAINS. FORTUNATELY NOT WHILE ON THE CURVY, SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN ROADS. THE VEHICLE REQUIRED TOWING DOWN THE MOUNTAIN TO THE NEAREST GMC DEALER. THE DEALER REPLACED THE PUMP AND CHARGED $200. MUCH INCONVEIENCE WAS INCURRED, WE HAD TO BE RETRIVED FROM THE MOUNTAINS(65 MILES), TAKEN TO THE DEALER BY OTHERS TO RETRIVE VEHICLE, ETC. THERE'S A RECALL(ID 05V005000) OF 98,221 OF THIS EXACT MODEL AND YEAR FOR THE EXACT SAME FAILURE. GMC CLAIMS MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED BY THIS RECALL AND WILL NOT REIMBURSE ME THE $200, WHICH DOES NOT INCLUDE THE SHUTTLE COST FROM THE MOUNTAINS TO HOME AND OTHER INCIDENTALS.

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

DT; WHEN YOU APPLY BRAKE PRESSURE DO NOT KNOW IF YOU WILL STOP OR NOT. YOU HEARD THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE SENSOR. BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED ALONG WITH SENSORS AND YOU STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM.

THIS RELATES TO THE RECENTLY ANNOUNCED INVESTINGATION INTO THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ON GM LIGHT TRUCKS AND SUVS. NHTSA ACTION NUMBER PE05020 I OWN A 2000 YUKON XL. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ABOUT 2 1/2 YEARS OLD, IT DEVELOPED THE SLOW-SPEED ABS ACTIVATION PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN YOUR ABOVE-DESCRIBED ACTION, RESULTING IN OCCASIONAL INABILITY TO STOP PROPERLY AT STOP SIGNS AND PARKING SPACES. THE FREQUENCY OF INCIDENT INCREASED, UNTIL IN EARLY 2004, WE HAD AN INCIDENT WHERE WE BUMPED ANOTHER VEHICLE, ALTHOUGH WITH NO DAMAGE OR INJURIES. WE THEN TOOK IT TO A LOCAL GMC DEALERSHIP, WHO REPAIRED IT BY DISASSEMBLY, CLEANING AND REASSEMBLY, AT OUR EXPENSE, SINCE THE WARRANTY PERIOD HAD LAPSED. AS OF NOW, THE PROBLEM HAS NOT YET REOCCURRED, HOWEVER, WE BELIEVE THAT SINCE THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY CORROSION, IT WILL REOCCUR. WE WOULD LIKE A PERMANENT FIX, AS WELL AS PERHAPS GM TO TAKE FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE REPAIR ALREADY PERFORMED.

1. DURING A FAMILY VACATION TO FLORIDA, MY BRAKING SYSTEM STARTED TO FAIL AT SLOW SPEEDS NORMALLY BETWEEN 5 AND 10MPH. THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD BECOME STIFF AND THE SYSTEM WOULD MAKE NOISE LIKE THE ABS WAS BEING ACTIVATED. 2. BEING A FAMILY VEHICLE, I HAD THE REPAIR DONE IMMEDIATELY, THE TECHNICIANS IN FLORIDA WERE NOT FAMILIAR WITH MY SYMPTOM. AT FIRST THEY REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER BUT THIS DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. 3. THE CREW TOOK TWO ADDITIONAL DAYS TO FIGURE OUT FINALLY THAT THE FRONT WHEEL SENSORS FOR THE ABS WERE CORRODED (BECAUSE I LIVE IN MAINE) AND THEY FINALLY REPLACED THE SENSORS AND THIS ALLEVIATED THE PROBLEM.

WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES ON MY 2000 GMC YUKON XL I HAVE EXPERIENCED ENGAGEMENT OF THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES AND SUBSEQUENT INCREASED DISTANCE REQUIRED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ACCIDENTS RELATED TO THIS PROBLEM. THE DESCRIBED PROBLEM USUALLY OCCURS AT LOWER SPEEDS, 25-40MPH, AND GOOD ROAD CONDITIONS (DRY PAVEMENT). I HAVE RECENTLY HAD MAINTANCE WORK PREFORMED ON THIS VEHICLE AT THE GMC DEALERSHIP WHEIRE I PURCHASED THE CAR. I REPORTED THE BRAKING PROBLEM TO THE SERVICE MANAGERAND ASKED THAT THE BRAKE AND ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM BE INSPECTED. PRIOR TO VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE BRAKE SYSTEM A TEST DRIVE WAS COMPLETED IN AN ATTEMPT TO DUPLICATE THE BRAKING PROBLEM. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE "VIBRATION: WAS DUE TO A PROBLEM IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND IT DID NOT POSE ANY SAFETY THREAT. I EXPLAINED AGAIN THAT THE "VIBRATION" WAS NOT FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL BUT IN THE BRAKE SHOE WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES. THE BRAKES WERE INSPECTED AND REPORTED TO HAVE 80% WEAR ON THE FRONT BRAKE PADS. THE REAR BRAKE PADS HAD BEEN REPLACED ABOUT 9 MONTHS AGO AND STILL LOOKED GOOD. THERE WAS NO REPORTED PROBLEM WITH THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. I REQUESTED TO HAVE THE FRONT BRAKE PADS REPLACED AT THAT TIME. ALL MAINTANCE SERVICE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF OIL AND FILTER CHANGES HAS BEEN DONE AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED.

CONTACT STATES: ABS ON VEHICLE WERE COMING ON WHILE BEING ON DRY PAVEMENT. THIS OCCURRED ALSO ON SLIPPERY ROADS, RESULTING IN EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE. PAID FOR REPAIRS OUT OF POCKET, A NEW BRAKE SENSOR WAS REPLACED ON THE VEHICLE. AFTERWARDS NO PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR.*AK

MY ABS BRAKES ACTIVATE AT LOW SPEED AND INCREASE THE STOPPING DISTANCE. I HAVE NOT HIT ANYTHING YET BUT HAVE HAD SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS IN PARKING LOTS AND IN TRAFFIC.

POWER WINDOWS IN DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE FAILED. THE MOTOR, REGULATOR, CABLE, AND PULLEY BREAK DOWN AND GETS TANGLED INSIDE AND JAMS UP. THE ENTIRE SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, THE DRIVER SIDE WENT THE END OF THE SUMMER OF 2004 AND THE PASSENGER SIDE WENT THE MIDDLE OF APRIL. THE WINDOW DOES NOT MOVE

PASSENGER DOOR WINDOW REGULATOR, 2000 GMC YUKON XL. WANT TO KNOW IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS SINCE IT SEEMS THERE IS A SHORTAGE OF THIS PART. AND THAT INFO COMES STRAIGHT FROM GM. I HAVE BEEN WAITING SINCE APRIL 6TH FOR THIS PART AND AM TOLD THAT IT WILL BE MID-MAY SOMETIME WHEN I MAY ACTUALLY GET IT. THEY SAID THE DEMAND FOR THIS PART HAS BEEN GREAT THEY RAN OUT. I WOULD LIKE AN INVESTIGATION INTO THIS MATTER, WHY WOULD THERE BE A SHORTAGE OF THIS WINDOW REGULATOR AND A HIGH DEMAND FOR THIS IF THERE WASN'T A PROBLEM. *AK

ACCELERATOR THROTTLE STICKS AND REQUIRES EXCESSIVE FORCE TO REQUIRE THE VEHICLE TO MOVE AND EACH TIME CAUSES VEHICLE SURGE.

ABS SYSTEM FIRES AT LOW SPEEDS FOR NO REASON (DRY PAVEMENT). VEHICLE STOPPING DISTANCE APPEARS INCREASED. GM HAS RECALL # 04094 FOR THIS ISSUE BUT IT IS LOCALIZED TO CERTAIN AREAS IN CANADA ONLY.*AK

APPROX 6 MONTHS AGO REAR PASSENGER SIDE POWER WINDOW STOPPED WORKING, RECENTLY FRONT PASSENGER SIDE POWER WINDOW DOES NOT WORK....UNKNOWN HOW THIS HAPPENED...I REPLACED DOOR SWITCH, BUT IT DID NOT CORRECT PROBLEM. I ALSO CHECKED FUSES. I REMOVED REAR DOOR PANEL AND CHECKED WIRING,OK/ I TAPPED WINDOW MOTOR AND IT BEGAN TO WORK. SHORTLY AFTER IT QUIT WORKING AGAIN. *AK

I HAVE CONCERNS OVER THE DRIVERS SEAT BACK IN MY 2000 GM YUKON XL. EVERY TIME I SLOW OR STOP THE SEAT TIPS FORWARD. THE SEAT BELT IS ATTACHED TO THE SEAT BACK. I HAVE INVESTIGATED THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM AND HAVE FOUND IT TO BE THE GEAR BOX DRIVEN BY THE ELECTRIC SEAT BACK MOTOR HAS PLAY IN BETWEEN THE GEARS. WHEN CHECKING INTO REPLACEMENT PARTS THERE WAS A NOTE ON THE GM COMPUTER THAT REPLACING THIS PART WOULD CORRECT SEAT BACK MOVEMENT WHEN VEHICLE STOPS. I AM CONCERNED THAT IT WILL BREAK LOOSE IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION FORCING ME INTO THE STEERING COLUMN OR CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. *JB

I HAVE YOUR CAMPAIGN ID#05V005000 RECALL DATE: 1/5/2005 I HAVE 2000 GMC YUKON XL, [XXX],[XXX], [XXX], [XXX], [XXX], MY POWER STEERING CUT OUT ON MY ON 1/19/05 I SAW THIS RECALL ON YOUR WEBSITE, CALLED GM, THEY CAN SEE THIS, AND SINCE THE RECALLS AREN'T GOING OUT FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER WEEK OR SO AND MY VIN# ISN'T LINKED TO IT THEY CAN'T AUTHORIZED REPAIR. I DROVE FOR A FEW DAYS WITHOUT THE POWER STEERING AND THEN RENTED A CAR, I CAN NO LONGER AFFORD THE RENTAL AND NEED MY TRUCK FIXED. IT IS PRESENTLY TODAY(1/25/05) AT MCGUIRE PONTIAC IN LITTLE FALLS NJ (973-785-2220) AND I JUST GAVE THE GO AHEAD TO FIX IT. I DON'T REALLY HAVE THIS $800.00 TO DO THIS AND GM IS DOING AN ESCALATION REPORT TO SEE IF THEY CAN SPEED UP THINGS BUT THAT WILL TAKE A FEW DAYS. I CAN'T WAIT THIS LONG. I DON'T SEE WHY IF A 2000 GMC YUKON XL IS ONE OF THE VEHICLES AFFECTED WHY IT IS TAKING SO LONG TO APPROVE. I UNDERSTAND I WILL BE DUE A REFUND BUT IT IS AGGRAVATING THAT I HAVE TO PUT OUT THIS MONEY TO BEGIN WITH. WHY POST THIS FOR PUBLIC VIEWING IF THEY ARE HONORING IT UNTIL IT IS OFFICIAL. SHOULD SOMEONE BE ABLE TO ATTEND TO THIS TODAY AND CONTACT MCGUIRE THAT MY VEHICLE IS COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL AND A MIRACLE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS IS SUCH A PROBLEM.
