2004 GMC YUKON Complaints

INACCURATE SPEEDOMETER READINGS INCLUDING COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE SPEEDOMETER ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 60MPH, SPEEDOMETER SHOWED 10MPH. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 YUKON THAT HAS THE REAR HATCH BACK. THE GLASS HAS BECOME DETACHED FROM THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE. IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE. I TALKING TO BODY SHOPS AND THE DEALERSHIP, I HAVE LEARNED THAT THIS PROBLEM IS NOT THAT UNCOMMON. ONE LOCAL OWNER OF A AUTO BODY SHOP SAID THEY THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE WAY THESE WINDOWS ARE ATTACHED TO THE VEHICLE. *TR

I WAS RELEASING THE THIRD ROW SEATING AND THE LOCKING MECHANISM BROKE. THERE IS A "CLAMP" THAT LOCKS THE SEATS TO THE FLOOR THIS 1/4 INCH METAL CLAMP BROKE IN HALF. NOW THE DRIVER'S SIDE THIRD ROW SEATING IS NOT ABLE TO BE LOCKED INTO PLACE IN ORDER FOR ANYONE TO RIDE THERE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT NOTICED A LEAK UNDER THE HOOD OF HIS VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED HIM TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE HYDRO BOOST FAILED. THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO PAY $861 TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MECHANIC INFORMED HIM THAT HE COULD HAVE RUN OUT OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKE FLUID, AND THE SEAL FAILED AND WAS LEAKING. THE FAILURE COULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASH DUE TO THE LOSS OF THE FLUIDS IN THE VEHICLE AND THE INABILITY TO BRAKE. THE BRAKES AND THE STEERING ARE ONE UNIT. A GMC REPRESENTATIVE STATED THAT HE WOULD CALL THE CONTACT IN 24 HOURS TO DISCUSS WHETHER OR NOT THEY WILL PAY FOR THE PARTS OR A PORTION OF THE REPAIRS. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 48,498 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,448.

THE SPEEDOMETER IN MY YUKON HAS STOPPED WORKING AND HAS BEEN STUCK @ 125MPH SINCE 37,000 MILES. *TR

WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND LOOKED AT MY SPEEDOMETER AND IT WAS AT 120MPH. STOPPED AND TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AND THE SPEEDOMETER STAYED AT 120MPH. NOW I HAVE AN INOPERABLE SPEEDOMETER IN MY TRUCK. *TR

I AM A SINGLE MOTHER OF ONE 11 YEAR OLD SON. I HAVE JUST PURCHASED A 2004 GMC YUKON AND I HAVE SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS. I HAVE A LOUD POPPING NOISE IN MY STEERING COLUMN AND MY SPEEDOMETER IS OPERATING VERY ERRATICALLY. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MY LOCAL GMC DEALER THAT THESE PROBLEMS ARE NOT COVERED. MY CONCERN IS IF I SHOULD BE KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT ON THE INTERSTATE BECAUSE I CAN NOT TELL HOW FAST I AM TRAVELING WHEN THE FRONT STEERING BREAKS DUE TO A STEERING COMPONENT FAILURE WHO WILL RAISE MY SON THE STATE OR GMC? I HAVE LOST ALL RESPECT FOR GMC AND THEIR PRODUCTS. *TR

DRIVING HOME ON A THREE HOUR TRIP, I NOTICED MY SPEEDOMETER QUIT WORKING, ABOUT 15 MINUTES AFTER GETTING A TICKET FOR SPEEDING. I NOTICED THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD EITHER STICK AT THE SPEED I WAS GOING AT ONE POINT IN TIME, THEN SOMETIMES IT WOULD JUST FALL TO 0. GM HAS A TSB OUT FOR THE ISSUE, BUT ONLY FOR 7 YEARS 70,000 MILES. I HAVE CONTACTED THEM SINCE I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE WITH 96,000 MILES ON IT, THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL SERVICE CENTER AND WAS AMAZED AT THE 600$ FIXING PRICE. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO FIX WHAT I AND EVERYONE ELSE WOULD CONSIDER A RECALL THAT THEY DON'T. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC YUKON. THE VEHICLE DID NOT PASS INSPECTION BECAUSE THE PARKING BRAKE FAILED. THE VEHICLE WOULD CONTINUE TO ROLL WHEN THE PARKING BRAKE WAS APPLIED. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY THE DEALER, BUT NO REPAIRS WERE MADE. THE DEALER DID NOT MENTION WHAT REPAIRS WERE NEEDED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 87,000.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC YUKON. APPROXIMATELY SIX MONTHS AGO, THE FUEL GAUGE BEGAN TO DISPLAY INACCURATE FUEL READINGS. BEGINNING IN NOVEMBER OF 2007, THE SPEEDOMETER BEGAN MALFUNCTIONING AND REMAINS AT 120 MPH, EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT ON. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS FOR THE STEERING WHEEL TO BE GREASED BECAUSE IT MAKES A POPPING NOISE EVERY SIX MONTHS. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER CONCERNING THE FUEL GAUGE OR THE SPEEDOMETER AT THIS TIME. THERE IS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE FUEL GAUGE AND SPEEDOMETER, WHICH HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO 70,000 MILES. THE VIN, ENGINE SIZE, AND PURCHASE DATE WERE UNKNOWN.
