HAVE A 2008 GMC YUKON XL 1500 THAT WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW FORM DEALERSHIP. OVER THE YEARS OF OWNERSHIP HAVE HEARD A POPPING OR SNAPPING NOISE ON OCCASIONS IN THE FRONT DASH PANEL. THEN TWO WEEKS AGO HEARD IT AGAIN THEN WITNESSED THE DASH CRACK OPEN ON THE TOP LEFT SIDE WHICH HAS CAUSED THE DASH PANEL TO WIGGLE FREE AND ALSO CRACKED AT THE MOUNTING POINT. THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR CITY STREET. THOUGHT THE DASH WAS GOING TO SHATTER FROM THE NOISE IT MADE. HAD TO PULL OVER THANK GOD IT DID NOT COME OUT WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSE ME TO WRECK. HAVE SEEN THIS REPORTED OVER AND OVER WITH THESE DASH PANELS. ALSO IT REPORTED ON THE NEWS OVER THE INTERNET FROM WMCACTIONNEWS5.COM. THESE NEED TO BE RECALLED AND REPLACED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT OR WORSE. THE SAD PART OF IT ALL IS THE DEALERSHIPS WANT OVER $1000.00 JUST TO REPLACE A PART THAT THEY KNOW FAILS AND THAT THEY HAVE STRUCTURAL ISSUES WITH AND OVER 100 PLUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT ACROSS AMERICA ALONE.

I BOUGHT THIS SUV FROM LEGENDS AUTO SALE. AFTER I BOUGHT IT, I NOTICE THE ENGINE BAY WAS REAL RUSTY LIKE ITS BEEN IN WATER OR DRIVEN OVER LOTS OF WATER. I DIDNT GET A CAR FAX AT TIME OF PURCHASES BUT DID CAR FAX MYSELF , AND IT APPEARED THAT VEHICLE IS FROM NEW ORLEANS. WITH ALL THE DIRT AND GRIM COMING OUT OF VEHICLE ITS DIFFENTLY FROM NEW ORLEANS. SO FAR I REPLACED NEW PADS AND ROTORS, MASTER CYLINDER, BRAKE SWITCH, NEW SPARK PLUGS AND WIRES. THE PROBLEM OCCURRING NOW IS THAT MY TRAC LIGHT AND ABS LIGHT WILL COME ON AFTER HALF HOUR OF DRIVING AND CAR SEIZES UP AND I'M UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. I WOULD HAVE TO SHUT OFF ENGINE AND LET REST FOR HALF HOUR TO AN HOUR BEFORE LIGHTS GOES AWAY AND I'M ABLE TO MOVE AGAIN. I'M NOT SURE BUT IT MIGHT BE DUE TO IT BEING IN THE FLOOD THUS CAUSING CORROSION AND RUSTING IN ALL PARTS OF VEHICLE. I DON'T HAVE DOCUMENTS ON ME AT THIS TIME AS I MISPLACED IT BUT CAN GET IT AGAIN AND UPLOAD IMAGE.

MY DASHBOARD IS CRACKED AROUND THE AIRBAG AND OVER THE STEERING COLUMN. I AM MISSING A BIG PIECE OF THE DASHBOARD OVER THE STEERING COLUMN. MY MAIN CONCERN (OTHER THAN THE HORRIBLE RATTLING NOISE I HAVE TO LISTEN TO WHEN I DRIVE) IS THE CRACKING OF THE DASHBOARD AROUND THE AIRBAG. THE CRACKING HAS ACTUALLY POPPED THE SQUARE SECTION OF THE AIRBAG UP. THERE IS ALSO A 6-7 INCH BROKEN OFF PIECE OF DASH AROUND THE AIRBAG THAT IS JUST SITTING THERE LOOSELY. WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF I AM IN AN ACCIDENT AND HAVE THIS LARGE PIECE OF LOOSE DASH FLYING AROUND? OR, SINCE MY AIRBAG COVER IS POPPED UP, CAN THIS CAUSE MY AIRBAG TO DEPLOY? I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I DIDN'T QUALIFY FOR A FREE REPLACEMENT, THAT IT WOULD COST ME $800 TO REPLACE MYSELF.

MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED AN ELECTRICAL SHORT IN THE FUEL PUMP FLOW CONTROL MODULE, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL WHILE I WAS TRAVELING AROUND 70 MPH ON THE FREEWAY. I LOST ENGINE POWER, POWER BRAKING, AND POWER STEERING. I NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT WHEN PULLING OFF TO THE SHOULDER AND BRAKING. I AM AWARE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL OF THE PART THAT FAILED IN GM BULLETIN 14515B. GM HOWEVER INFORMED ME THAT MY VIN WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. THE DEFECT IN MY FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BY MY GMC AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER. I AM LOOKING FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF THE $550 DOLLARS I PAID TO SEWELL SERVICE TO REPLACE THIS COMPONENT AS IT SURELY SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED IN THE RECALL.
