2007 GMC YUKON Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE LOW ENGINE OIL INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE VEHICLE WAS SLUGGISH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WERE NO FAILURES; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD CONTINUE TO DRIVE SLUGGISH AND CONSUME EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,000.

I AM WRITING TO INFORM A SAFETY HAZARD ISSUE WITH MY 2007 GMC, YUKON. OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS A CRACK HAS FORMED OVER THE METER COMBO. SINCE THAT CRACK HAS FORMED, IT HAS CAUSED A PIECE OF THE DASH TO BREAK OUT. THE CRACKS IN DASH HAVE ALSO CAUSED VIBRATION OF THE DASH AND HAS CAUSED TWO OTHER CRACKS IN THE DASH TO APPEAR AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I AM CONCERNED IN THE EVENT THAT AN ACCIDENT DOES OCCUR THAT THE DASH WILL CRUMBLE/BREAK IN THE DRIVER/PASSENGER FACE. THIS COULD CAUSE VERY LIFE THREATENING INJURIES. PLEASE CONSIDER REPORTING THIS TO GMC DEALERS FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION OF THESE DASHES AND CONSIDER A RECALL.

THERE IS CRACKS APPEARING ON THE DASH ALL ALONG THE AIRBAGS HOUSING COMPARTMENT AND PART OF THE AIR BAG IS EXPOSED . I'M VERY AFRAID THAT THE AIRBAG WILL GO OFF WHILE I'M DRIVING BECAUSE THE DASH IS SO CRACKED IT'S BARELY HOLDING THE BAG IN . I'M ALSO WORRIED IT WILL AFFECT THE SAFETY COMPONENTS AND NOT WORK IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF IT BEING EXPOSED TO SOME ELEMENTS DUE TO THE CRACKS. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN GARAGED KEPT AND ALWAYS PROFESSIONALLY MAINTAINED SO IT'S NOT SOMETHING WE DID OR DID NOT DO I BELIEVE IT'S CHEAP MATERIAL ON THE DASH CAUSING THIS TO OCCUR. ANOTHER BIG ISSUE IS THE GAS AND BRAKE PEDAL ARE ADJUSTABLE AND HAVE COMPLETELY COME UNDONE AND FALLEN OFF THE ADJUSTABLE MECHANISM WHILE I WAS DRIVING . I CALLED THE COMPANY AND SHE SAID SOMEONE WOULD CONTACT ME SOON AND IT'S BEEN A MONTH I'VE YET TO HEAR FROM THEM. IT WAS A TERRIFYING ORDEAL TO BE DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU CAN'T ACCELERATE OR BRAKE . I WAS SO SCARED FOR MY CHILDREN'S SAFETY AS WE WERE ALL IN THE CAR DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKED AT BOTH CORNERS OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AS WELL AS OVER THE STEERING WHEEL DASH (PLASTIC USED TO MAKE THESE DASHES IS THE CAUSE OF THE CRACKING IN 2007-2013 GM AND CHEVROLET TRUCKS). I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED THAT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT; EITHER THE CRACKED PLASTIC WILL CAUSE THE AIR BAG TO PUNCTURE (SERIOUS LIFE SAFETY CONCERN) OR THE PIECES OF CRACKED PLASTIC WILL BE PROJECTILES AND POSSIBLE BE HARMFUL TO ALL PASSENGERS OF THE VEHICLE. APPARENTLY GM HAS STATED THAT THE PLASTIC USED TO MAKE THESE DASHBOARDS IS THE CAUSE OF ALL OF THESE CRACKS HOWEVER THEY WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL. THERE ARE CLASS ACTION SUITS BEING LOOKED INTO BUT THE 2007 - 2009 VEHICLES ARE OUT OF THIS GROUP BECAUSE OF THE BANKRUPTCY THAT GM FILED. I DO NOT FEEL THAT THE GOVERNMENT BAIL OUT AND BANKRUPTCY SHOULD RELIEVE THEM OF THE LIFE SAFETY ISSUE THESE CRACKED DASHES ARE CAUSING. THERE IS AN ENTIRE FACE BOOK PAGE WITH 3,323 MEMBERS THAT HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET GM TO REPLACE THEIR DASHES. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. SOMEONE MUST HAVE TO BE KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT BEFORE THEY WILL ISSUE A RECALL.

DASH AROUND AIRBAG CRACKED AND PRESENTS SAFETY HAZARD FROM PLASTIC SHRAPNEL IF AIRBAG DEPLOYS ALSO DASH CRACKS AROUND INSTRUMENT PANEL CAN CAUSE SHRAPNEL TO BE LAUNCHED INTO OCCUPANTS CAUSING BODILY HARM. CRACKS HAPPEN WHILE VEHICLE STATIONARY

THE DASHBOARD DEVELOPED A CRACK JUST ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. WHAT EFFECT THIS WILL HAVE SHOULD AIRBAG DEPLOY IS UNKNOWN.`

DASHBOARD CRACKING FROM DRIVER SIDE TO AIR BAG ON PASSENGER SIDE COULD DEFLATE AIR BAG IF DEPLOYED DEALER AND GENERAL MOTORS OFFERED NO HELP AND THEY WILL REPAIR FOR $1050.00

MY FRONT DASHBOARD IS CRACKING IN 2 PLACES ON BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVERS SIDE. FIRST NOTICED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.

CRACKED DASHBOARD ON DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE.COULD NOT GET HELP FROM GMC SUV HAS BEEN GARAGED KEPT. IT HAS 101,000 MILES.

"TAKATA RECALL" WHILE BRAKING THE SUV JERKS WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES. NEW ROTORS AND BRAKES INSTALLED AND THE PROBLEM STILL CONTINUES.
