2003 GMC YUKON Recalls, Complaints & Safety

My 03 Yukon Denali is experiencing all of the same things that the recall on the 2021 Yukon is experiencing. What do I do? The recall notice I am referring to is N252494000

The contact owns a 2003 GMC Yukon. The contact stated that while driving at various speed, the vehicle would stall as the battery warning light appeared on the instrument panel. The contact also stated that the vehicle would shake upon depression of the brake pedal without warning. The vehicle was taken to the independent where the vehicle was purchased and was offered no assistance. The dealer nor the manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 200,000.

The contact owns a 2003 GMC Yukon. The contact stated that upon purchasing the vehicle from a towing company, the vehicle would not start. The battery was instantly replaced. The contact stated that the vehicle would wobble and shut off inadvertently while driving. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the stabilizers and shocks were replaced. The independent mechanic then took the vehicle to an electrical failure specialist where it was diagnosed that the front end of the vehicle was experiencing electrical failures. Additionally, the contact stated that a warning message stating that the air bags were not working was displayed. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000. Consumer stated in 2016 the odometer was at 175,000 miles per car fax. When consumer bought the vehicle on March 25th 2022 the odometer read 202,575.

When I turn out of a parking spot it clicks and pops replaced ball joints shocks tie rods everything it won't go away and it does it when I pull into a parking spot

FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS MY CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING I'VE REPLACED FUEL PUMP. KNOCK SENSORS COILS AND PLUGS AND IT STILL DOES IT AND DOES NOT THROW A TROUBLE CODE.

CAR LOOSES POWER AND GOES INTO REDUCED ENGINE POWER. UNABLE TO DRIVE OVER 2MPH. HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES, IN ALL MODES OF TRAVEL, UPHILL, DOWNHILL, FROM A STOP AND ACCELERATION. THE WORST WAS WHEN IT HAPPENED GOING 55MPH ON A HIGHWAY. TWO SEPARATE MECHANICS HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO PINPOINT THE PROBLEM EVEN AFTER $1,300 WORTH OF WORK AND NEW PARTS. IT'S BEEN HAPPENING SINCE MID OCTOBER 2019

ALL METERS ON THE DASH BOARD IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. METERS SUCH AS THE SPEEDOMETER, GAS METER, RPM METER, ETC ARE NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. WHEN DRIVING ON SMALL ROADS, HIGHWAYS, AND FREEWAYS, IT DOES NOT INDICATE THE SPEED ACCURATELY. THE GAS METER DOES NOT INDICATE HOW MUCH GAS IS IN THE GAS TANK WHEN THE CAR IS STOPPED OR WHEN ITS DRIVING. RPM METER ALSO IS NOT FUNCTIONING WHILE WE'RE DRIVING.

I WAS LEAVING MY DRIVEWAY WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL ON MY GMC YUKON BLEW OUT. THE LINE HAD RUSTED THOROUGH. THIS OCCURRED IN 2012. SINCE THEN AS A GM TECHNICIAN I HAVE SEEN AND HEARD OF CUSTOMERS, FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS WITH GM TRUCKS HAVE THEIR BRAKE LINES BLOW OUT FROM RUST. GM HAS A REAL ISSUE WHICH SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. THE BRAKES LINES ON THEIR TRUCK MODELS TEND TO RUST OUT. GM HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL BUT OFFERED A NEW BRAKE LINE KIT. MY QUESTION TO YOU IS WHY? I HAVE NOT SEEN THIS ISSUE ON THE SAME MODEL YEAR GM CARS. AS FAR AS I KNOW NO ONE HAS DIED AS A RESULT BUT THERE HAS TO HAVE BEEN INJURIES. IS IT NOT YOUR JOB TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE? ONCE AGAIN WHY?

THE RIGHT FRONT DRIVERS SIDE HUBS WAS ABOUT TO COME OFF AND MY ENTIRE BRAKING SYSTEM WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.

THE FACTORY INSTALLED HEAD GASKET HAS BEEN SAID TO BE A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS APPARENTLY IS A "COMMON" PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, A LOUD BANG WAS HEARD AS THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE REAR TAILGATE GLASS SHATTERED. UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT REMEMBERED THAT THE REAR DEFOGGER WAS TURNED ON; HOWEVER, SHE WAS UNSURE IF IT WAS ON AT THE TIME THE GLASS SHATTERED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE REAR TAILGATE GLASS WAS REPLACED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNKNOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND A CASE WAS OPENED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 225,000.

TAKATA RECALL

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED INDEPENDENT DECELERATION AND THE REDUCED ENGINE POWER WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP, SPARK PLUGS, TRANSMISSION, AND ALTERNATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND TRANSFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON EQUIPPED WITH CONTINENTAL GENERAL GRABBER TIRES, SIZE: 305/23/40R (NA). WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE TIRES VIBRATED AND MADE AN ABNORMAL SOUND. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO PULL THE VEHICLE OVER AND OBSERVED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE WAS DEFLATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT TIRE MECHANIC, BUT NO DIAGNOSIS WAS PROVIDED. THE TIRE WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED SIX MONTHS LATER WITH THE SAME FRONT PASSENGER TIRE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,799 AND THE TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,201.

SPEEDOMETER AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS ARE INACCURATELY READING. SPEEDOMETER RANGES FROM 25 - 70 MPH OVERSTATED. FUEL GAUGE REMAINS WELL IN EXCESS OF FULL UNTIL ABOUT 7 GALLONS ARE LEFT IN TANK. OIL PRESSURE IS REGISTERING WELL TO THE RIGHT OF THE HIGHEST READING. PROBLEM BEGAN DURING COLD TEMPERATURE (AROUND 10 DEGREES) AND IMPROVES WITH TEMPERATURE INCREASES BUT HAS NOT RESOLVED ITSELF. APPEARS TO BE THE SAME PROBLEM AS GM SPECIAL POLICY ADJUSTMENT 07187A. THE VIN IS WITHIN THE CATEGORY LISTED BY THE POLICY; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE IS OLDER THAN 10 YEARS BUT FITS WITHIN THE MILEAGE RESTRICTIONS SINCE THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 64,500 MILES. THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN DEFECT WHICH CLEARLY IMPACTS SAFETY. THE FOLLOWING LINK DESCRIBES THE KNOWN ISSUE: HTTP://WWW.GMSPEEDOMETERRECALL.COM/GMC-SPEEDOMETER-SETTLEMENT LOCATION OF VEHICLE IS KANSAS CITY, KS SINCE I AM CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF RELOCATION.

MY BRAKE LINES ARE RUSTED OUT AS DESCRIBE IN THE ARTICLE BELOW. COSTING ME OVER 650.00 TO REPAIR. LESS THAN 115K ON MY CAR! NEVER HAD TO REPLACE BRAKE LINES BEFORE... I LOST MY BRAKE UN-EXPECTANTLY DURING A RAIN STORM IN COHASSET, MA ON 1/10/2017. LUCKILY I WAS ON A SIDE ROAD COMING TO A STOP SIGN AND NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED NOR WERE MY 3 KIDS IN THE VEHICLE. I SAW THIS ARTICLE BELOW AND DECIDED TO WRITE YOU. HTTPS://WWW.CONSUMERAFFAIRS.COM/NEWS/CONSUMERS-COMPLAIN-OF-CORRODED-BRAKE-LINES-IN-OLDER-GM-TRUCKS-013014.HTML

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON. WITHOUT WARNING, THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD AND BRAKE FLUID WAS LEAKING. A MECHANIC REPLACED THE REAR BRAKE LINES; HOWEVER, 1,000 MILES LATER, THE FRONT BRAKE LINES ALSO FRACTURED. THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE FRONT BRAKE LINES AND INDICATED THAT THERE WAS EXTENSIVE RUST AND CORROSION. ALL OF THE BRAKE LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED OR THE FAILURE COULD RECUR. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 04V045000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED TO WORK. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SLOW DOWN, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR WHEN IT WAS DEPRESSED, BUT FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE ABS INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT SLOWLY DROVE THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE HYDRAULIC UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE TECHNICIAN REFERRED THE CONTACT TO A LOCAL DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 142,000.

WHILE APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION I APPLIED THE BRAKES THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND THE WAS TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE. GUIDED THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP. THEY FOUND RUSTED BRAKE LINES AT THE ABS VALVE ALONG WITH A RUSTED BACKING PLATE FOR THE VALVE. IN ORDER TO IMPROVE VEHICLE SAFETY THE LINES WILL ALL BE REPLACED WITH STAINLESS STEEL SO THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY POOR DESIGN SINCE A SINGLE FAILURE SHOULD NOT CAUSE TOTAL FAILURE OF A SUPPOSED DUAL BREAKING SYSTEM.

THE BACK GLASS LEFT SIDE HINGE SEPARATED FROM THE GLASS AND BROKE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. THE GLASS COULD HAVE COME OFF FROM SUCTION AND HURT SOMEONE. THERE IS A RECALL OUT FOR OTHER GMC SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES BUT NOT FOR THIS VIN.

TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE WHILE STATIONARY AND ENGAGING DRIVE MODE IN DRIVEWAY. BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR. PARKING BRAKE ALSO SOFT AND INEFFECTIVE BUT RESTORED NORMAL CONDITION SHORTLY THEREAFTER.. NO BRAKE OR ABS SYSTEM SERVICE ALERTS OR FAULT WARNINGS PRIOR TO FAILURE. 'SERVICE BRAKE SYSTEM' ALERT PRESENT AFTER FAILURE. NO OBDS CODES PRESENT. SUSPECT BRAKE LINE CORROSION. APPROXIMATELY 170,000 MILES. RECENT TIRE/BRAKE/ALIGNMENT INSPECTION REVEALED NO ISSUES. THIS IS A VERY CLEAN, "NEW TO ME" USED VEHICLE WITH AN EXCELLENT RECORD OF SERVICE. HAD JUST COMPLETED A TROUBLE FREE 2400 MILE INTERSTATE ROAD TRIP.

I WAS TOWING A 17' BOAT AND CAME TO A STOP SIGN. I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WENT TO THE FLOOR. THE YUKON DID NOT SLOW AT ALL. FORTUNATELY, NO ONE WAS COMING AND I ROLLED THROUGH THE STOP SIGN, MADE A RIGHT TURN, AND WENT DOWN A STEEPER HILL. PUMPING THE BRAKES AS I WENT HAD NO EFFECT. THE DASH SHOWED A 'SERVICE BRAKE' MESSAGE. I APPLIED THE PARKING BRAKE AND DOWN-SHIFTED, WHICH SLOWED IT ENOUGH THAT I WAS ABLE TO SWING WIDE INTO THE OPPOSING TRAFFIC LANE AND BARELY MAKE THE TURN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL. I PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH THE RIGHT-WHEELS ON A SOFT SHOULDER BEFORE THE VEHICLE SLOWLY CAME TO A STOP. I REFILLED THE BRAKE RESERVOIR AND HAD MY WIFE PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL. IT WENT TO THE FLOOR AS BRAKE FLUID SHOT ONTO THE HOT EXHAUST MANIFOLD, LEAKING FROM A RUSTED JOINT WHERE THE STEEL BRAKE LINE JOINED A FLEXIBLE, BRAIDED LINE UNDER THE HOOD. THE BRAKE LINES WERE HORRIBLY RUSTED, UNLIKE ANYTHING I HAD EVER SEEN IN MY 35+ YEARS OF DRIVING AND OWNING VEHICLES (INCLUDING 20 CARS AND LIGHT TRUCKS). THIS YUKON HAS SPENT ITS ENTIRE LIFE REGISTERED IN VIRGINIA AND HAS LESS THAN 80K MILES ON IT. I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT THEY ARE LIKE IN NORTHERN STATES. LOOKING ONLINE, I DISCOVERED THAT THIS WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT THE NHTSA HAD INVESTIGATED. WHY WAS I NOT WARNED? I COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED, AS COULD HAVE ANOTHER MOTORIST OR PEDESTRIAN! WHEN I CALLED MY LOCAL GMC DEALER (OURISMAN OF ALEXANDRIA, VA), THE SERVICE ADVISOR CLAIMED TO BE UNAWARE OF THE PROBLEM, THE GM SERVICE BULLETINS THAT HAD BEEN ISSUED ON IT, AND THE AVAILABILITY OF THE PRE-BENT LINES AS A DISCOUNTED KIT FROM GM. HE ESTIMATED A FOUR-FIGURE LABOR BILL TO DO THE WORK, SO I AM DOING AS MUCH OF IT AS I CAN MYSELF USING NICKEL-COPPER BRAKE LINE AND A FLARING TOOL. PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE FROM THIS IF THE NHTSA DOES NOT FORCE GM TO DO A RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE BLOWER MOTOR STOPPED WORKING WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE BLOWER MOTOR AND RELAY SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 157,000.

LOST ALL BRAKING , TOOK TRUCK TO REPAIR SHOP AND THE BRAKE LINES HAD CORRODED AND HAD SEVERAL HOLES IN THEM. I HAD TO REPLACE ALL THE METAL LINES ON THE VEHICLE. BRAKES WERE FINE HOOKED UP UTILITY TRAILER AND PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. GOING DOWN HILL, APPLIED BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILED TO ILLUMINATE AND NONE OF THE GAUGES FUNCTIONED. IN ADDITION, THE DIGITAL DISPLAY WAS NOT FUNCTIONING DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE VEHICLE WAS TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

BRAKE LINE FAILURE - ST. LOUIS MO. BRAKES FAILED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SLOW FROM 60MPH SPEED ON CHRISTMAS DAY. NARROWLY ESCAPED ACCIDENT/COLLISION. 2 BRAKE LINES WERE FOUND RUPTURED/SPLIT DUE FROM RUST/CORROSION THEN REPAIRED. OTHER BRAKE LINES ARE SHOWING CORROSION & WILL NEED ATTENTION SOON. VEHICLE IS 2003 GMC YUKON WITH 101,300 MILES.

SPEEDOMETER RANDOMLY STICKS, OR ACCELERATES TO MAXIMUM. OIL PRESSURE GAUGES MAX OUT AS WELL. VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH NO CONCEPT OF SPEED, AND ALSO VERY ILLEGAL. WHEN I STOP THE VEHICLE, I CAN TURN OFF THE ENGINE. IF I CONTINUE TO TURN THE KEY 90% (BUT NOT ENOUGH TO START THE ENGINE), AND LET OFF, THE GAUGES WILL DROP UP TO 5%. AFTER 5 MINUTES OF RESETTING THE INSTRUMENTS, THE GAUGES WILL RESET. HOWEVER, THE NEXT TIME I DRIVE I MIGHT BE GOING THROUGH A SCHOOL ZONE AT 40 INSTEAD OF 25, BUT MY SPEEDOMETER SAYS 80. CLEARLY UNSAFE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT TRAVELED ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE CONTACT HAD TO GEAR DOWN IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE FLUID LINE NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 113,000.

THERE IS A RECALL #05068 THAT DESCRIBES EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING MY CAR. IT OCCURS EVERY TIME I DRIVE MY CAR, EVERY TIME I ACCELERATE AND BRAKE. (2003 GMC YUKON XL). HOWEVER, GMC CLAIMS MY CAR "ISN'T EFFECTED" AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT. MY ISSUES ARE 1. GETTING DANGEROUS, AS THE CAR BOGS AND WON'T ACCELERATE WITHOUT A PERIOD OF HESITATION AND THEN IT GIVES TOO MUCH ACCELERATION WHICH CAN BE BAD IF I'M ON A SLIPPERY SURFACE. ALSO, THERE IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE VEHICLES WHICH IS ANOTHER PROBLEM I AM EXPERIENCING: 2. MY ABS KICKS IN RANDOMLY, EVEN IF THE PAVEMENT IS TOTALLY DRY AND CLEAR. APPARENTLY, THIS IS CAUSED BY A CORRODED MOUNTING SURFACE FOR THE FRONT WHEEL SPEED SENSORS. THE CORROSION BUILDS UP CAUSING EXCESSIVE GAP BETWEEN MOUNTING SURFACE AND WHEEL SPEED SENSOR WHICH CAUSES A LOSS OF WHEEL SPEED SENSOR SIGNAL. WHEN THE ABS MODULE SEES THE LOSS OF SIGNAL IT THINKS THE VEHICLE IS SLIDING OUT OF CONTROL SO IT WILL ACTIVATE THE TRACTION CONTROL OR ABS. DESCRIPTION FROM RECALL #05068: CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE UNWANTED ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) ACTIVATION. THIS CONDITION IS MORE LIKELY TO OCCUR IN ENVIRONMENTALLY CORROSIVE AREAS. THIS RECALL WILL BE LAUNCHED IN THE "SALT BELT" STATES OF CONNECTICUT, DELAWARE, ILLINOIS, INDIANA, IOWA, MARYLAND, MASSACHUSETTS, MAINE, MICHIGAN, MINNESOTA, MISSOURI, NEW HAMPSHIRE, NEW JERSEY, NEW YORK, OHIO, PENNSYLVANIA, RHODE ISLAND, VERMONT... HAZARD:THIS CAN CAUSE INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES DURING LOW-SPEED BRAKE APPLICATIONS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.

I LOST ALL BRAKING ABILITY WHILE TRAVELING THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND FOUND BRAKE FLUID FLOWING FROM THE MAIN BRAKE LINE FEEDING THE ANTI-LOCK CONTROLLER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RIGHT FRONT FENDER OF THE VEHICLE WAS RUSTED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE PAINT ON THAT FENDER WAS BUBBLING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 93,832.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY DRAINED PREMATURELY. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE BATTERY SEVERAL TIMES AND THE ALTERNATOR WAS ALSO REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR INSPECTION WHO LOCATED THE FAILURE AT THE ENGINE ELECTRICAL WIRES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE MANUFACTURER BATTERY DRAIN REPLACEMENT RECALL 02066. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

REAR BRAKE LINE BURST WITHOUT WARNING AND BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. UPON INSPECTION THE BRAKE LINE IS COMPLETELY RUSTED OUT. *TR

LOSING POWER THROUGHOUT MY VEHICLE. STARTED WITH THE OVERHEAD HEATING/COOLING CONTROLS. VEHICLE WILL LOCK ITSELF WITHOUT ANY KEYS WHEN DOORS ARE SHUT. (IT HAS LOCKED ME OUT ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS) WORKED ITS WAY BACK TOWARDS THE REAR LOSING OVERHEAD LIGHTS. HEATER/AC DOES NOT WORK IN THE REAR. PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR WINDOW OR SEAT BELT DOES NOT WORK. FOUR WHEEL DRIVE GOES CRAZY. AND NOW THE MAIN (FRONT) HEATING AND COOLING CONTROLS ARE GOING APE [XXX] CRAZY. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

BRAKE LINE GOING TO REAR BRAKES WAS RUSTED OUT. SITUATION LUCKILY HAPPENED WHILE MY WIFE WAS BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY. NO HARM OR INJURY OCCURRED. DISABLED VEHICLE. FURTHER INSPECTION SHOWS THAT ALL BRAKE LINES ARE SUSPECT AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. *TR

I HAD A BRAKING PROBLEM MARCH 2015, CORROSION OF THE BRAKE LINES. I HAVE A 2003 YUKON 2500 QUADRASTEER. I WAS DRIVING MY TRUCK WHEN THE BRAKES WENT. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT!!!!! I PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL PRACTICALLY TO THE FLOOR, I WAS ABLE TO ROLL INTO A PARKING LOT. WHEN I GOT OUT THERE WAS BRAKE FLUID POURING OUT FROM THE BRAKE LINES TOWARDS THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. WHY GM RUNS THE LINES RIGHT ALONG THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE UNDERCARRIAGE IS A MYSTERY TO ME. IT IS JUST GOING TO BE EXPOSED TO SALT! I LIVE IN MICHIGAN AND WE USE A LOT OF SALT IN THE WINTER MONTHS. YES THINGS DO RUST, BUT I ALWAYS WASH THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF MY TRUCK! IT'S A CASE OF POOR ENGINEERING AND IT LEADS TO PREMATURE CORROSION. I AM A MOTHER OF 3 YOUNG CHILDREN AND THANK GOD THEY WERE NOT IN THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME THIS HAPPENED. *TR

FOUND A BROKEN OFF EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLT ON DRIVEWAY 3 YEARS AGO. FOUND ANOTHER BROKEN ONE TODAY. BOTH ARE FROM THE SAME SIDE. NOW INSTEAD OF 6 BOLTS I HAVE 4 BOLTS. THIS IS CAUSING AN EXHAUST LEAK, ENGINE LIGHT AND EMISSIONS PROBLEMS THAT HARM THE ENVIRONMENT. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM PER THIS ARTICLE: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=0YG6WLBNZGI. *TR

WHILE STOPPING FROM LOW SPEEDS THE ABS SYSTEM ACTIVATES ON DRY SURFACES. THIS CAUSES INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES. *JS
