THE ACCELERATOR STUCK ON OUR 2001 YUKON SLT WHILE DESCENDING HOOSIER PASS (EASTBOUND ON HWY 9 WEST OF ALMA, CO). THE BRAKES FAILED WHILE TRYING TO SLOW/STOP VEHICLE. I DOWNSHIFTED TO SLOW OUR VEHICLE TO A SPEED AND MY WIFE AND I EXITED (JUMPED OUT WHILE VEHICLE WAS STILL MOVING) BEFORE GOING OFF EMBANKMENT. MY WIFE JUMPED FIRST, THEN I DID, JUST BEFORE THE VEHICLE WENT OFF THE SIDE OF THE PASS. TREES, ROCKS, AND EMBANKMENT STOPPED THE VEHICLE APPROX 150FT DOWN THE SIDE OF THE PASS. 2001 YUKON SLT, VIN [XXX]. INSURANCE CLAIM STILL IN PROGRESS. LEASE CONTACT ME FOR MORE INFORMATION: [XXX] REGARDS, [XXX]. *AK UPDATED 07/24/2012 *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES WHENEVER MAKING A TURN, AND THERE IS A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE DRIVELINE. VEHICLE'S PERFORMANCE CONTINUES TO GET WORSE. MANUFACTURE OFFERS NO ASSISTANCE.*AK......STEERING SHAFT FAILED. *AK

THE METAL PIECE HOLDING THE 3RD ROW SEAT OF MY 2001 YUKON SNAPPED. IT IS AN ALUMINUM PIECE WITH A HARD COAT OF PLASTIC ON IT. I DO HAVE THE PIECE. WHEN I WAS AT THE DEALER TALKING TO THEM, THEY MENTIONED SOMEONE ELSE HAD JUST BEEN IN FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. MY ISSUE IS IF I HAD BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND SOMEONE WAS IN THE THIRD ROW SEAT THEIR SAFETY WOULD HAVE BEEN HIGHLY COMPROMISED. THE THIRD ROW SEATS ARE HARDLY USED, SO WEAR AND TEAR SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE. *JB

CRASH WITH A VEHICLE WHO PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF US. WE WERE GOING 60+ MPH ON A 65 MPH MARKED HIGHWAY. OUR FRONT PASSENGER SIDE HIT THE OTHER VEHICLE'S DRIVER ('89 LINCOLN TOWNCAR) QUARTER PANEL. BOTH VEHICLES WERE TOTALLED BY INSURANCE. NO AIRBAGS IN MY VEHICLE DEPLOYED. FORTUNATELY, THE STRUCTURE OF THE VEHICLE HELD UP TO THE CRASH AND THERE WERE MINIMAL INJURIES. THE SEATBELT CAUGHT THE DRIVER AND THERE WASN'T ANYONE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OR THERE MIGHT HAVE BEEN MORE INJURIES SINCE THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. VEHICLE WAS TOTALLED AND NO REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR WAS DONE.*AK

MULTIPLE FAILURES WITH 2001 YUKON. DASHBOARD LIGHT, AIR BAG AND COMPUTER MALFUNCTIONED. PROBLEMS STARTING AFTER ACCELERATING. *BF THE VEHICLES COMPUTER MALFUNCTIONED CAUSING DASHBOARD LIGHTS, AIRBAG, L.E.D, AND BRAKE LIGHTS TO TURN ON. THE SPEEDOMETER FROZE. WHEN THE CONSUMER WOULD PRESS ON THE GAS PEDAL THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESPOND PROPERLY. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS SPURACTICALLY. *TC

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND NOT RUNNING, HOWEVER THE CONSMER WAS ABLE TO APPLY THE SHIFTER FROM PARK TO DRIVE AS WELL AS REVERSE. PLEASE FILL IN ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. *JB THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO MOVE IN THE OFF POSITION WHEN THE KEY WAS NOT IN THE IGNITION DUE TO THE SHIFTER MOVING FROM THE PARK POSITION. *TC

THE CONSUMER WAS APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION AND WITHOUT WARNING, ANOTHER DRIVER CUT IN FRONT OF THE CONSUMER VEHILCE. THE DRIVER APPLIED THE BRAKES, BUT THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. THIS CAUSED THE OTHER VEHICLE TO COLLIDE INTO ON THE PASSENGER 'S SIDE AND PUSHED THE VEHICLE INTO A TREE. BOTH FRONTAL AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED INJURIES AND WAS TRANSPORTED BY AMBULANCE TO THE HOSPITAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. PLEASE FILL IN ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. *JB

MULTIPLE FAILURES; A/C ODORS, DOOR LOCK, SUSPENSION ALIGNMENT AND BRAKES. *BF THERE WERE PROBLEMS WITH THE FOLLOWING: WEATHER STRIP WAS LOOSE, THE A/C BLEW WARM, THE BELTS SQUEAKED, THERE WAS A MILDEW ODORS, THE WINDOW REGULATOR, THE FRONT SEAT BELT SQUEAKED, THE DOOR PANEL, THE STEERING WHEEL RATTLED, DRIVE SHAFT, ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE WIPERS WERE NOISY, THE HINGE PIN ON THE RADIO WAS LOOSE, ENGINE NOISES, A/C DRAIN WOULD NOT DRAIN AT TIMES UNTIL THE PASSENGER DOOR WAS CLOSED/WATER LEAD AND CAUSED BY THE LEFT FRONT FLOORBOARD. RECALL#01V159000, 02V253000, 03V094000. *SC

WHILE PARKING AND APPLYING THE PARKING BRAKE THE CONSUMER NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE DID NOT HOLD. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS THE STATES INSPECTION. PLEASE PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. *JB

WHILE APPLYING THE EMERGENCY BRAKES. THE BRAKE FAILED TO HOLD. THE DRIVER NOTICED WHILE DRIVING,THE BRAKE LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD AND REMAINED ON. THE CONSUMER DROVE TO THE DEALER FOR AM INSPECTION. THE MECHANIC INFORMED THE CONSUMER THAT THE SENSOR FOR THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, AND THE MASTER CYLINDER NEEDED TO BE REPLACEMED. PLEASE FILL IN ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. *JB

ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT ACDELCO BATTERY POSITIVE TERMINAL CORRODED AND FELL OFF WITH NO PRIOR WARNING. NO VISIBLE SIGNS. FAILURE CAN OCCUR AT ANY TIME, WITH VEHICLE EITHER RUNNING OR PARKED, AND AT ANY LOCATION. REPAIR IS A BATTERY REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR OF ACID-DAMAGED PARTS LOCATED UNDER THE BATTERY. I'VE SINCE LEARNED THAT THIS FAILURE IS COMMON KNOWLEDGE OF GM REPAIR CENTERS AND OTHER GM SUV VEHICLE OWNERS.*AK

BATTERY ACID WAS LEAKING OUT OF THE TRUCK AND ONTO THE DRIVEWAY. THE THIRD BATTERY WAS INSTALLED BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. *AK

A LOUD GRINDING NOISE WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE REAR. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A TIRE GARAGE FOR INSPECTION, AND MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT A ROCK GRAVEL WAS TRAPPED INSIDE OF THE TREAD, AND THE ROCKS WOULD CUT GROVES INSIDE OF THE ALLOY WHEELS. THIS CAUSED LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE FROM THE TIRES. *AK

THE CONSUMER WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION.THE VEHICLE WAS HIT BROADSIDE, AND THE SIDE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. *AK THE CONSUMER WAS STRUCK BY A VEHICLE WHO HAD RUN A RED LIGHT. *SC *JB

WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO INTO OVERDRIVE. CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION, AND MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT TRANSMISSION FAILED. *AK

THE RIGHT WINDOW HINGE ON THE REAR "LIFT GATE" HAS BROKEN AFTER 68,000 MILES AND THREE AND HALF YEARS OF USAGE. THE HINGE HAS FAILED DUE TO FATIGUE FROM NORMAL, OCCASIONAL USE ON A WELL MAINTAINED, GARAGE KEPT VEHICLE. THIS FAILURE, IN MY OPINION AS A MECHANICAL ENGINEER, IS A FACTORY DESIGN DEFECT. THE SAFETY ISSUE I HAVE WITH THIS PROBLEM IS THAT AFTER HINGE BREAKS, THE GLASS NO LONGER SEALS PROPERLY AND HANGS AJAR ALLOWING EXHAUST GASES TO BE VACUUMED INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. THIS PROBLEM REQUIRES A $1400 GM OR A $600 DOLLAR AFTER MARKET REPLACEMENT OF THE ENTIRE REAR WINDOW. THIS IS EVEN MORE DISHEARTENING KNOWING THAT IT WILL ULTIMATELY FAIL AGAIN IN THREE YEARS. THANKS FOR YOUR EAR AND HAVE A GREAT DAY. *JB

MY 2001 GMC YUKON WITH 4-WHEEL DISC BRAKES FAILED STATE INSPECTION DUE TO WORN OUT (NON-FUNCTIONING) EMERGENCY BRAKES. I HAVE ONLY USED THEM FOR PARKING ABOUT 10 TIMES & NEVER FOR EMERGENCY STOPPING. THE DEALER WHO REPAIRED THEM, TOLD ME THAT DUE TO A CLIP DESIGN PROBLEM, THEY TYPICALLY WORE OUT WITHOUT USE, RIGHT AFTER THE TRUCK WAS PURCHASED. THE LININGS WOULD NOT REMAIN STRAIGHT & WOULD WEAR PREMATURELY. THEY CHARGED ME FOR SOME OF THE REPAIR ($100) BUT IT SEEMS THAT IT SHOULD BE COVERED AS A RECALL. *AK

VEHICLE HAVING MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH SEATBELTS. *MR THE FRONT SEAT BELT WOULD NOT PULL OUT OR RETURN TO POSITION, TWO WEEKS LATER, THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT. THE REAR SEAT BELT EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. THE BATTERY LEAKED ACID FROM THE POSITIVE BATTERY POST AND THE MATERIAL ON THE DRIVERS SEAT WAS WEARING OUT. *SC *JB

WHEN PUMPING GAS IN THE GAS TANK, THE GAS WOULD LEAKS FROM THE FILLER PIPE. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION. THE MECHANIC INFORMED THE OWNER THAT THE WIRING HARNESS HAS MELTED FROM THE FUEL PUMP. *AK

THE EBCM WENT OUT ON MY 2001 GMC YUKON ABS SYSTEM CAUSING THE ABS PUMP TO RUN CONTINUALLY EVEN WITHOUT THE KEY ON. PULLING THE FUSE STOPPED THE PUMP FROM RUNNING, BUT I DON'T HAVE ABS, WHICH TO ME IS A SAFETY CONCERN. GM SHOULD RECALL THIS MODULE FOR SAFETY REASONS, ESPECIALLY SINCE THERE IS A LONG LIST OF VEHICALS WITH THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. I HAVE NOT REPLACED THIS PART DUE TO THE $1000 PRICE FROM THE DEALER, NOR DO I INTEND TO UNTIL GM ISSUES A RECALL ON THIS DEFECTIVE PART. FOR THE MONEY THAT I GAVE GM FOR THIS VEHICAL, I EXPECT MORE CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT THIS, I HAVE GIVEN THEM ENOUGH MONEY FOR THEM TO JUST BRUSH MY SAFETY (AND OTHERS' SAFETY AS WELL) ASIDE. *AK

WHILE DRIVING, CONSUMER NOTICED AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT FLASHING THROUGHOUT TRAVEL AT ALL TIMES. DEALERSHIP SERVICED VEHICLE, AND NOTICED BRAKE CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *AK

CONSUMER CALLED AND COMPLAINED ABOUT BRAKES, INTERMITTENTLY AT EVERY 600 MILES AVERAGE, THE ABS SYSTEM NEED TO BE REPLACED AT CONSUMER'S EXPENSES. DEALER INDICATED THAT CONSUMER NEEDED TO CLEAN THE SENSOR AND THE BEARING,. ALSO, THEY STATED THAT GMC AND NHTSA HAS A TSB ON THIS ISSUES. *AK

WHEN DRIVING, THE ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. THE CONSUMER PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER AND PARKED THE VEHICLE ON A SLIGHT INCLINE, AND SMELLED A GAS ODOR. THE CONSUMER GOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE TO INVESTIGATE THE SMELL, AND NOTICED FUEL LEAKING FROM THE FUEL TANK. THE CONSUMER DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION, AND THE MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE FUEL PUMP WIRING FAILED, CAUSING THE FUEL TO LEAK FROM THE FUEL TANK. *AK A SMALL LEAK WAS FOUND IN THE EVAPORATIVE FUEL SYSTEM. THE CONSUMER NOTICED GAS LEAKING AT A RATE OF A QUART PER 5 MINUTES AND APPEARED TO BE COMING FROM THE TOP OF THE TANK. THE MECHANIC FOUND FUEL LEAKING FROM AROUND THE CONNECTOR WHICH HOUSED WIRES FROM THE FUEL PUMP AND THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR. *SC *JB

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED THE CONSUMER SEEN THAT FRONT/REAR TIRE TREAD HAD SEPARATED. THE CONSUMER REPAIRED THE REAR TIRES ONLY. THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM , BUT DID NOT RESOLVE. FIRESTONE STEEL TEX#LT245R16 PLEASE PROVIDE THE DOT NUMBER.*AK

AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND THEN PARKING IT FOR A WHILE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. DEALER WAS CONTACTED BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. *AK

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE'S HOOD FLEW OPEN DUE TO THE HOOD LATCH BREAKING.*MR WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE'S HOOD LATCH FAILED AND AS A RESULT THE HOOD FLEW OPEN AND DAMAGED THE VEHICLE. THE PREVIOUS DAY THE CONSUMER HAD THE VEHICLE'S OIL CHANGED (OHIO TRAFFIC CRASH REPORT). *NM

THE EMERGENCY BRAKE FAILED TO STOP 2001, GMC, YUKON WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PUT IN DRIVE ,AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKES WERE ENGAGED. THIS WAS ONE OF THE TEST REQUIRED FOR A INSPECTION STICKER IN GRAPEVINE TEXAS. *AK

HEADLIGHTS FAIL TO COME ON SOMETIMES IF STEERING WHEEL IS TILTED, IT WILL HAVE TO MOVE TILT ON STEERING WHEEL SOMETIMES THEY WILL COME ON IN A CERTAIN POSITION ON THE WHEEL AND THE INTERIOR DIAL WILL NOT MAKE THEM COME ON, IF THEY ARE ON AND HIGH BEAMED OR USED IT WILL MAKE THE LIGHTS GO OUT ALL TOGETHER, WILL NOT COME ON UNTIL TILT IS READJUSTED. *LA

REAR LIFT GATE GLASS AT HINGE HAS COME APART.*MR THE BONDING MATERIAL HOLDING THE HINGE TO THE WINDOW FAILED. *TS *JB

THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE BLEWOUT WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH. FIRESTONE WILDERNESS LE TIRE. *AK. THE GM DEALER REPLACED THE TIRE WITH ANOTHER FIRESTONE TIRE. *JB

BRAKES WOULD LOCK UP FOR NO APPARENT REASON. NO WARNINGS WERE GIVEN THIS CONTINUED SEVERAL TIMES WITH THE DEALERSHIP CONTINUALLY SAYING THAT THERE WAS NO PROBLEM UNTIL I DROPPED THE VEHICLE OFF AT THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE BRAKES (ALL FOUR) COMPLETELY LOCKED UP.*AK

THE CONSUMER STATED THE FOG LIGHTS VIBRATED EXCESSIVELY WHEN DRIVING, GREATLY REDUCING THEIR EFFECTIVENESS. DEALER ADVISED PROBLEM WAS DUE TO THE POOR DESIGN OF THE FOG LIGHT MOUNT. *AK OTHER DRIVERS WERE DISTRACTED BY THE SHAKING LIGHT IN THEIR REAR VIEW MIRROR. *SCC *JB

THE ANTILOCK BRAKE MODULE FAILED AND I LOST ALL ANTILOCK CAPABILITY. WHEN IT FAILS, IT MAKES THE SOUND OF A SMALL FAN MOTOR. IT QUIT WHEN I PARKED AND TURNED THE YUKON OFF. THIS MODULE COST ME $800 TO REPLACE. INCREDIBLE FOR A VEHICLE WITH 45,000 MILES.*AK

AFTER DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MINUTES AT A SPEED OF APPROX. 30 MPH ON A GRAVEL ROAD FIRESTONE WILDERNESS P265/70R16 REAR TIRE BLEW OUT ON MY '01 GMC YUKON WITH COMPLETE TREAD SEPARATION, AND THE RADIALS BREAKING. MY HUSBAND CHANGED THE TIRE WITH OUR SPARE THAT IS THE SAME MAKE/MODEL. APPROX. 10 MINUTES LATER ON A PAVED ROAD AT A SPEED OF 45 MPH, THE SPARE BLEW OUT WITH COMPLETE TREAD SEPARATION. OUR VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THERE WAS NO PROBLEM FOUND WITH THE VEHICLE. THEY BELIEVE THE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE. WE HAVE REPLACED ALL FOUR TIRES ON OUR VEHICLE AND KEPT THE FIRESTONE FOR EVALUTION AND ANALYSIS PURPOSES.*AK

THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW FAILED TO ROLL DOWN, WHICH WAS CAUSED BY AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. *AK

THE SERPENTINE BELT HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE AND THEN THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED BECAUSE WHEN THE TRUCK IS STARTED IT MAKES A SQUEALING NOISE AND AFTER ALL THAT, IT STILL MAKES THE NOISE. *JB

SOME GM PRODUCTS, INCLUDING MY 2001 GMC YUKON, DO NOT COME WITH A DOOR AJAR WARNING SYSTEM. GM HAS WRITTEN, INDICATING THAT THERE IS A "STANDARD" DOOR AJAR WARNING SYSTEM WHEN THERE IS NOT. GM HAS MADE AN APPARENT MISREPRESENTATION, FOOLING CUSTOMERS INTO BELIEVING THAT THE COURTESY DOME LIGHT SYSTEM (WHICH TURNS ON WHEN THE DOOR IS OPEN) IS A DOOR AJAR WARNING SYSTEM. I HAVE SEEN OTHER INTERNET COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS SYSTEM IN GM PRODUCTS. IT POSES A GRAVE DANGER TO OCCUPANTS. IS THERE LEGISLATION REGARDING A DOOR AJAR WARNING SYSTEM AND CAN ANYTHING BE DONE ABOUT GM? BELOW ARE EXAMPLES OF WHAT CAN OR HAS OCCURRED. A DRIVER ENTERS A YUKON ALONG WITH THREE PASSENGERS. THE DOME LIGHT WILL TURN ON NO MATTER WHAT AT THIS JUNCTURE BECAUSE THE DOORS WERE OPENED, SO THERE WOULD NOT BE CAUSE FOR ALARM AS DOORS CLOSE. ONE OF THE THREE PASSENGERS DOES NOT CLOSE HIS/HER DOOR COMPLETELY. THE DRIVER PUTS THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND STARTS THE VEHICLE. THE LIGHT TURNS OFF. NO DOOR AJAR WARNING. ANOTHER EXAMPLE: I OPENED A REAR PASSENGER DOOR OF MY YUKON AND THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THE DOME LIGHT TURNED ON, BECAUSE IT IS APPARENTLY A STANDARD FEATURE FOR THE LIGHT TO COME ON WHEN A DOOR IS OPENED FOR PEOPLE TO GET IN AND OUT. I THEN PUSHED THE PASSENGER DOOR TOWARDS IT'S HOUSING JUST ENOUGH FOR METAL TO TOUCH METAL (OR THE APPARENT SENSOR), BUT STILL "OPEN" IN THAT, WITHOUT ENGAGING THE DOOR OPENING MECHANISM, I COULD STILL PULL IT OPEN. I THEN ENTERED THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE DRIVER'S SIDE D

WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE LOST BRAKE POWER. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE PARKING BRAKE WHICH REMAINED ON A IT CAME IN CONTACT WITH THE ROTOR. *AK PH *JB

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THE WHEEL BEARINGS WERE BAD AND THE VEHICLE ALSO NEEDED TIRES. *JB

CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE CAUSED BY AN ABERRANT VOLTAGE ON STOP LAMP CIRCUIT. ALSO THE PCM, STARTER AND SERPENTINE BELT WAS REPLACED. *AK *JB

THE FRONT SEAT BELTS DID NOT RETRACT BACK INTO POSITION AFTER BEING USED.*JB

THERE WAS A DESIGN ISSUE WITH THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT BELT, WHEN THE SEAT BELT WAS FASTENED, IT LOCKED PERMANENTLY, AND DID NOT ALLOW THE PASSENGER TO MOVE FOWARD. *JB *JB

CONSUMER CALLED COMPLAINING ABOUT THE TAILGATE WINDOW FELL OF ON A SIDE. DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT CONSUMER WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. MR

HEADLIGHTS JUST GO OFF ON LOW BEAM WILL WORK ONLY ON HIGH BEAM. SOMETIMES THEY WORK AND THEN AT OTHER TIMES THEY GO OFF. TOOK TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN BRANDON MISSISSIPPI, COULD NOT REPRODUCE, HOWEVER GOT STRANDED WOULDN'T CRANK AT 23900 MILES, BOOSTED, TOOK TO DEALERSHIP, GAUGES WERE CLICKING AND JUMPING BATTERY WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY BUT I AM AFRAID THIS IS NOT THE END OF THIS PROBLEM. WE HAVE HAD THREE GMC'S WITH PREVIOUS BATTERY PROBLEMS WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. DT

FOR AT LEAST THREE MONTHS THE DIM HEADLIGHTS WOULD GO OUT AND ONLY THE HIGH BEAM LIGHTS WOULD WORK WE TOOK THE TRUCK IN THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE. THEN THE TRUCK STALLED AT 23500 MILES AND IT WAS TAKEN IN AND A NEW BATTERY WAS PUT IN UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS THE THIRD GMC VEHICLE WE HAVE HAD WITH BATTERY PROBLEMS. WE ALSO HAVE A 1999 SUBURBAN THAT HAS HAD THREE BATTERIES INSTALLED. WE DO NOT KNOW AT THIS POINT IF THE NEW BATTERY WILL CORRECT THE HEADLIGHT PROBLEM BUT WILL CERTAINLY RETURN TO DEALER IF NOT. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE ARE OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCE THE SAME ELECTRICAL/SHORTAGE PROBLEMS? DT

LACK OF 3 POINT RESTRAINT SYSTEM AND HEAD RESTS ON MIDDLE POSITION OF BENCHES. I HAVE SIX CHILDREN WHO ARE QUICKLY OUTGROWING CAR SEATS. I BELIEVE 2 PT RESTRAINTS ARE UNSAFE. WHEN WILL THEY BECOME STANDARD IN LARGE UTILITY VECHICLES LIKE THE YUKON XL? LESSER CARS ARE EQUIPPENT WITH THEM. HOW DOES A MOTHER CHOOSE WHICH 2 CHILDREN TO PLACE IN THE LESS SAFE SEATS? NLM

VEHICLE IS LEAKING FUEL FROM TOP OF TANK ASSEMBLY. DEALERSHIP IS AWARE OF PROBLEM. *AK

PULLING OFF FROM A STOP RAN A RED LIGHT AT 45 MPH AND HIT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR, AND KNOCKED RIGHT REAR TIRE OFF VEHICLE. NONE OF AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

TRUCK HAS FAILED TO START TWICE. WHEN DRIVING, AT RANDOM TIMES ALL GAUGES EXCEPT SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER WILL SHUT OFF, MESSAGE CENTER WILL ACT LIKE IGNITION IS OFF. TRUCK HAS NOT SHUT DOWN WHEN THIS OCCURS YET, BUT THE COMPUTER SEEMS TO THINK THE ENGINE IS OFF.
