2012 GMC YUKON Complaints

POWER LIFT GATE MALFUNCTION. THE POWER LIFT GATE STRUTS FAILED WHICH CAUSED THE LIFT GATE TO OPEN ONLY 1/3 OF THE WAY BEFORE CLOSING UNEXPECTEDLY. SOMETIME IT WOULD OPEN ALL THE AWAY, THE POWER ARM WOULD THEN DISENGAGE CAUSING IT TO UNEXPECTEDLY CLOSE. SOMETIME IT WOULD CLOSE AS "DEAD WEIGHT" WITH ENOUGH FORCE TO SERIOUSLY INJURE AN ADULT AND POSSIBLE KILL A CHILD OR PET. WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, I WAS TOLD THE STRUTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR TWO YEARS. I PURCHASED IT AS CERTIFIED USED. I WAS CHARGED $415 FOR THE REPAIR. UNFAIR AS THIS VEHICLE IS ONLY FOUR YEARS OLD! FURTHER, I AUTHORIZED THE WORK AT APPROXIMATELY 4:45PM, MY VEHICLE WAS COMPLETE BY 5:30PM THE SAME DAY. I WAS CHARGED TWO HOURS LABOR AT $125 PER HOUR. HOW IS THAT FAIR? MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THIS HAPPENED, REPEATEDLY. I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE. OTHER THAN THIS, I LOVE MY GMC!!!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 GMC YUKON DENALI. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HESITATE AND LOSE POWER, BUT THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV. THE FAILURE OCCURRED RANDOMLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS AT THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 33,000. UPDATED 05/11/16*LJ *TR

DASH HAS CRACKED ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL. CRACK IS APPROXIMATELY 6-8-INCHES IN LENGTH. DASH IS ALSO CRACKED IN TWO LOCATIONS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I FEEL THESE CRACKS COULD BE A SAFETY CONCERN WHEN THE AIRBAGS ARE DEPLOYED. THESE CRACKS OCCURRED UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS ARE NOT THE RESULT OF A PREVIOUS ACCIDENT OR BEING STRUCK BY AN OBJECT.

THE PLASTIC DASHBOARD STRUCTURE OF THE FRONT DASH (ABS PLASTIC) IS CRACKING AND SEPARATING SPONTANEOUSLY. LARGE CRACK DEVELOPED IN FROM OF THE DRIVER AND IS EXPANDING WITH MULTIPLE OFFSHOOTS CAUSING THE DASH STRUCTURE TO SPLIT IN TWO AND IS IN DANGER OF FRAGMENTING. CRACK OCCURRED WHILE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND IS GROWING EACH DAY.

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING ON THE DRIVERS SIDE INSTRUMENT COVER AND RIGHT INTO THE AIR BAG DASH LOCATION. ONLY 43,000 MILES MAINLY GARAGE KEPT AND SUNSHADE INSTALLED WHEN OUT OF COVER.THE SAME THING HAPPENED ON A 2007 SUBURBAN.

DASHBOARD CRACKING IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS, CRACKS INCREASE IN LENGTH AND ARE RUNNING UP THE COWLING OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND COMING FROM THE PASSENGER AIRBAG HOUSING

THE PLASTIC DASH ON MY YUKON IS CRACKING AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND IN FRONT OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. SEEMS LIKE IF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WERE TO GO OFF THAT IT WOULD PROPEL PIECES OF THIS BROKEN PLASTIC DASH.

CRACKED DASH BOARD. APPEARED SUDDENLY. CAR WAS NOT IN MOTION AND PARKED WHEN CRACK WAS DISCOVERED. IT'S A 2012 YUKON XL SO NOT AN OLDER MODEL.

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2012 GMC YUKON DENALI XL. I PURCHASED THIS SUV IN SEPT 2013 USED WITH LESS THAN 2000 MILES. I NOTICED A HAIRLINE CRACKED ABOVE MY AIRBAG MODULE ON THE DASH BOARD AT THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF APRIL 2015. I FEEL THAT THIS CRACKED DASH IS A SAFETY CONCERN. IF THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT WHERE THE AIRBAGS WAS TO DEPLOY IT CAN CAUSE SHRAPNEL AND MAJOR DAMAGE OR HARM TO ANYONE IN THE TRUCK. I HAVE 4 KIDS IN WHICH TWO OF THEM ARE TEENAGERS THAT SIT IN THAT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT.

I HAVE BEEN A LONG TIME BUYER OF GM PRODUCTS, I STILL HAVE A 99 TAHOE, 07 GMC SAVANNA AND AN 02 GMC SIERRA HD 2500, RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2012 YUKON XL DENALI USED WITH 22,000 MILES ON IT FROM OLD SAYBROOK GMC IN CT, CLEAN AS A WHISTLE EVERYTHING LOOKED, WENT TO WASH IT AND SPRAY UNDERNEATH IN THE FIRST WEEK AFTER I BOUGHT IT AND NOTICED UNDERNEATH THE FRAME WAX ALL PEALING AND FRAME VERY RUSTED, ALONG WITH MANY OTHER THINGS RUSTING . MY 02 WITH 170,000 MILES ON IT LOOKS BETTER THEN THIS. ALSO WENT ON LINE AND THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME THING. IM SURE MORE WOULD IF THEY LOOKED UNDER THERE CAR. THIS HAS GOT TO BE A FACTORY DEFECT AND THEY NEED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER IS TELLING ME THATS NORMAL , I DISAGREE SEEING I HAVE MULTIPLE CARS/ GMCS MY WIFE HAS A 2012 PASSAT WE BOUGHT NEW AND IS SPOTLESS UNDERNEATH, AND WE HAVE DONE NOTHING TO THE CAR. *JS
