2005 GMC YUKON Complaints

INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER GAUGE NEEDLE -- SPEEDOMETER GAUGE -- WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. IT STICKS ON 0MPH, ON A PREVIOUS RATE OF SPEED REGARDLESS OF INCREASE OR DECREASE, OR DISPLAYS RATE OF SPEED AT 100+ MPH. VERY INCONSISTENT. WHEN THE SPEEDOMETER DOES DECIDE TO WORK IT IS ABOUT 10-15 MPH OFF OF ACCURATE RATE OF SPEED. (COMPARED TO GPS THAT DISPLAYS CURRENT RATE OF SPEED) IT WAS TAKEN TO DEALER AND CONTACT STATED THAT IT IS SAME CLUSTER PANEL GAUGE OF 2003-04 YEAR MODELS CURRENTLY IN RECALL ALTHOUGH HAS NOT EXTENDED TO 2005-06 YEAR MODELS AT THIS TIME. *TR

MY SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING. ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO IT STARTED SKIPPING. IT WOULD STAY STUCK ON 60MPH NO MATTER IF I WAS GOING 10MPH OR 75MPH. NOW THE GAUGE IS STUCK ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT AND DOESN'T MOVE AT ALL! *TR

SPEEDOMETER FAILURE ON MY 2005 YUKON DENALI. NEEDLE GETS STUCK AND WONT RETURN TO NORMAL POSITION. AUTO MANUFACTURERS HAVE BEEN INSTALLING SPEEDOMETERS IN CARS FOR OVER 100 YEARS. VEHICLE IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS 50,000 MILES. GMC WONT RECALL BECAUSE NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED, BUT YET 03-05 WERE RECALLED IN THE SAME MODEL. I FEEL THIS CREATES A COSTLY REPAIR PEOPLE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO MAKE ON SUCH NEW VEHICLES AND SHOULD BE PART OF A SAFETY RECALL. *TR

I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY 2005 DENALI SHIFTING. I GO TO STOP AND THEN TAKE OFF AND IT ACTS LIKE ITS SLIPPING AND THEN ALL OF SUDDEN IT GRABS WITH A CLUNK. THIS HAS HAPPEN AT ALL TIMES OF IT BEING DRIVEN. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALER PUT UNLESS THEY CAN DUPLICATE IT THEN THEY CANT FIX IT. WELL GM WILL NOT PAY THEM FOR WARRANTY WORK UNLESS. NOW IT HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT THAT IT MADE A LOUD CLUNK AND THEN WAS SLIPPING AS YOU PUSHED THE GAS, SO RIGHT THEN WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SO THEY COULD DRIVE IT. THE TRANSMISSION TECH DROVE IT AND LOOK AT THE TRANS FLUID AND IT WAS 1 1/2 QTS LOW. NO LEAKS EVER AND IT HAS BEEN IN TO THE DEALER AT LEAST 5 TIMES AND 3 IN THE LAST 2 1/2 MONTHS AND THE FLUIDS, I HOPE WERE GOOD. TECH TOPPED IT OFF AND IT SHIFTED FINE FOR THE WEEKEND. THEN THE NEXT MONDAY IT STARTED SLIPPING AND HARDLY ACCELERATING AGAIN. TOOK IT BACK IN AND THE TECH CHECKED CODE AND IT HAD SOME TORQUE CONVERTER CODES. THEY REPLACED A WIRING HARNESS IN THE TRANSMISSION. I WORK FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS THEN IT STARTED AGAIN. WE TOOK IT BACK IN AND THE SERVICE DEPT. CALLED GM AND THEY HAD THEM CHANGE THE IGNITION SW (MODULE I THINK). I WILL POST CODE AND EXACT WHEN I GET THE INFO FROM THE DEALER. I WILL SEE IF THIS FIXES IT. *TR

SPEEDOMETER WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY. WILL EITHER STAY AT 0MPH OR IS STUCK AT 60 MPH REGARDLESS IF THE VEHICLE IS MOVING OR NOT. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING MY 2005 GMC YUKON DENALI XL WHEN BOTH THE PASSENGER TIRES WENT FLAT. WE PUT AIR IN THE TIRES AND DROVE HOME. THE NEXT MORNING ONLY THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE WAS FLAT SO I USED MY COMPRESSOR TO AIR THE TIRE UP AND WENT TO FIRESTONE TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. WHEN FIRESTONE REMOVED THE TIRE AND LOOKED AT IT, THEY FOUND MULTIPLE SPLIT ON THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE. SO I HAD THEM CHECK ALL THE TIRES AND EACH ONE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS. I HAVE REPLACED ALL FOUR TIRES NOW BUT SOMEONE HAS SOLD A BAD TIRE AND I WANT THEM RECALLED AND ALSO MY MONEY BACK. *TR

WHEN DIVING ON A HOT DAY I HAD THE A/C TURNED ON WITH THE DRIVER SIDE, REAR AIR AND PASSENGER TEMP ABOUT 70 DEGREES. THE DRIVER SIDE AND REAR AIR WOULD ONLY BLOW OUT HOT AIR LIKE THE HEATER WAS ON BUT THE PASSENGER WAS WORKING JUST FINE. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES. IT HAS BEEN TAKE IN TO THE DEALER AND ONE OF THE SERVICE GUYS SAID THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH HI YUKON. IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE FIXED. WE WILL SEE WHAT THE WIFE SAYS ABOUT IT. *TR

I HAVE 2005 GMC YUKON XL THAT I PURCHASED ON THE YEAR END SALE. SO I HAVE HAD IT FOR ABOUT 1 1/2 YEARS SO FAR. SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED IT WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE A STONE HIT MY WINDSHIELD. I NOTICED THAT AFTER A FEW DAYS AND TEMPERATURE CHANGES A CRACK STARTED TO GROW FROM IT. THAT IS PRETTY TYPICAL RIGHT? YES AND NO. YOU SEE THIS IS MY FOURTH NEW CAR AND SIXTH ALL TOGETHER. IN THE PAST I'VE HAD STONES HIT MY WINDSHIELD BUT NO CRACKS. HAVE I BEEN LUCKY OR IS IT SOMETHING ELSE. AFTER A WHILE I STARTING SEEING OTHER YUKONS, ESCALADES AND SUBURBANS WITH MULTIPLE CRACKS AND CRATERS AND ASKED THE OWNERS QUESTIONS. THEY ALL SEEMED TO BE OK WITH IT BUT I'M NOT. I ASK MYSELF WHY ARE ALL OF THESE WINDSHIELDS CRACKED? STATISTICALLY WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF WINDSHIELDS CRACKING WITH A STONE ON THE ROAD. THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT I SERIOUSLY BELIEVE THAT THE WINDSHIELDS ARE DEFECTIVE. *TR

LEFT QUARTER GLASS EXPLODED FOR UNKNOWN REASON. HAD JUST FINISHED WASHING VEHICLE, PARKED VEHICLE, WALKED AROUND SIDE OF VEHICLE AND THE GLASS EXPLODED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING OUR 2005 YUKON XL 2500 SERIES VEHICLE THE SERVICE 4WD MESSAGE WILL ALERT FROM TIME TO TIME AT WHICH POINT THE ABILITY TO CONTINUE IN 2WD IS NOT AFFECTED BUT THE ABILITY TO TRANSFER INTO 4WD HI OR LO IS ELIMINATED. TURNING THE CAR OFF THEN BACK ON CLEARS THE ERROR AND SYSTEMS ARE AGAIN OPERABLE. THIS WAS FIXED BEFORE UNDER WARRANTY BUT THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURS WITHOUT WARNING. PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED IN EXCESS OF SIX TIMES OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE NEW.
