2007 GMC YUKON Complaints

I HAVE A VEHICLE WITH A RIDE PACKAGE CALLED PREMIUM SMOOTH RIDE WITH A GM FACTORY CODE "ZW7". BOTH GM AND GM DEALERSHIPS HAVE A CATALOG ISSUE THAT RESULTED IN ME BUYING AN INCORRECT AND DANGEROUS REAR SHOCK. I HAVE WORKED FOR 6 MONTHS TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE AND HAVE A VEHICLE DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AS THE REPLACEMENT PART REFERRED BY GM IS INCORRECT. THE OEM MANUFACTURER (SACHS) IN FRANCE HAS CONCURRED THAT GM IS AT FAULT. GM IS HAVING CONSUMERS PUT ON A FACTORY REPLACEMENT PART INCORRECT FOR VEHICLE AND WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO SPEAK WITH ANYONE WITHIN GM TO RESOLVE THE MATTER. I HAVE IT WELL DOCUMENTED AND IT HAS ALSO BEEN AN ISSUED FOR YUKON OWNERS WITH THE "PREMIUM SMOOTH RIDE" OPTION. SACHS IN FRANCE PROVIDED GM WITH A FACTORY SHOCK WITH "NIVOMAT" TECHNOLOGY THAT SHARED THE RIDE LOAD WITH THE REAR SPRINGS. SACHS HAS SINCE DISCONTINUED THE PRODUCT AND AS SUCH NO REPLACEMENT PART CAN BE BOUGHT. A CHANGE OF BOTH THE SPRINGS AND SHOCKS MUST BE DONE AND GM REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE REQUIREMENT OR OFFER A SOLUTION. INSTEAD THEY SEND DRIVERS DOWN THE ROAD WITH A DANGEROUS RIDE SET UP. WHEN WE DROVE OUR VEHICLE AFTER USING THE GM RECOMMENDED SHOCKS, IT RODE VERY ROUGH AND WHEN WE GOT UP TO SPEED IT ACTUALLY BOUNCED AROUND ON THE HIGHWAY AND WAS DIFFICULT TO KEEP ON THE ROAD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED NEAR THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED.

I FIND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH A FACTORY PART. CHEVY-GMC SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE. IT'S ALL ABOUT SAFETY! . THANK-YOU.

DASH CRACKING ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND AROUND PASSENGER AIRBAG. IF AIRBAG WERE TO BE DEPLOYED SHARP PLASTIC COULD INHIBIT AIRBAG OR COULD INJURE PASSENGER THIS IS A VERY WIDESPREAD ISSUE IN ALL YUKON, TAHOE, SUBURBAN, SILVERADO AND SIERRA TRUCKS OF THE 07-12 MODEL YEARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 75 MPH, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL GAUGES BECAME INOPERABLE AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

STABILITRAC AND TRACTION CONTROL SERVICE IS ON SCREEN. CAR MAKES LOUD NOISE WHEN STARTING. NOT ALL THE TIME. TURNING OFF ENGINE AND RESTARTING FIXES PROBLEM BUT SERVICE LIGHTS STAY ON.. I'VE HEARD MANY REPORTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL. ARE WE WAITING FOR AN ACCIDENT?

DRIVING THROUGH TOWN WHEN THE CAR STARTED SLAMMING INTO GEAR. RIGHT BEFORE, THE ABS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE DASH SAID "STABILITRACK DISENGAGED". CAR STARTED BEEPING AND LOST POWER. WHEN I WAS ABLE, PULLED OVER AND SHUT DOWN CAR. IT WOULD NOT START. TOWED IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY HAD DIFFICULTY DIAGNOSING. ULTIMATELY REPLACE IP JUNCTION BOX AND FP GATEWAY. SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN 10,000 MILES LATER.

WHILE DRIVING ON SURFACE STREETS, THE YELLOW ABS WARNING CAME ON, "STABILITRACK" LIGHT CAME ON. THE WARNING LIGHTS STARTED DINGING, THE TRANSMISSION SLAMMED BETWEEN GEARS, THE LIGHTS CAME AND WENT AND THE DOOR LOCKS WERE GOING UP AND DOWN CONTINUOUSLY. LOST POWER ALSO, PULLED OFF AND SHOT OFF ENGINE. TRUCK WOULD NOT RESTART AS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS DEAD. SAME THING HAPPENED 10K MILES EARLIER. THIS HAS HAPPENED 2TIMES AND THE CAR ONLY HAS 53,000 MILES. REPAIRS TOOK OVER 10 DAYS AS THE ENGINE WAS NOT COMMUNICATING WITH THE CAR. REPLACED ENGINE CONTROL MODULE

DASHBOARD CRACK BEHIND STEERING WHEEL, AT BOTTOM/BASE OF THE HUMP. CRACK EXTENDS FROM SEAM TOWARD DRIVER. THIS VEHICLE IS PARKED EVERY DAY AND NIGHT IN OUR GARAGE.

MY WIFE AND I HAD JUST PURCHASED A USED 2007 GMC YUKON. LITTLE DID WE KNOW ABOUT THE MAJOR ISSUE THE TRUCK HAS WITH THE REDUCED POWER READING THAT COMES UP. I REALLY THINK THAT GMC NEEDS TO PUT OUT A RECALL FOR THESE ISSUES. MY WIFE WAS ON HER WAY HOME FROM A WORK MEETING AND DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WITH HER SISTER AND MY WIFE'S AND MY DAUGHTER IN THE GMC YUKON AND SHE WAS DOING THE SPEED LIMIT AND ALL OF A SUDDEN SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON. SHE CALLED ME AND SHE WAS IN A PANIC. SHE HAD TO PULL OFF THE FREEWAY AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND WHEN SHE DID THE VEHICLE HAD DIED IT TURNED OFF AND SHE HAD OUR 2 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER WITH OUT A/C AND IN 100 DEGREE WEATHER. THIS ISSUE PUTS THE PEOPLE'S FAMILIES AT RISK THAT OWN THESE VEHICLES AND ALSO OTHER DRIVERS FAMILIES AT RISK YOU CAN NOT REPLACE A PERSONS LIFE IF ITS TAKEN AWAY AND THE HARDSHIP IT CAUSES BUT YOU CAN REPLACE A VEHICLE SO WHY NOT COME UP WITH SOLUTION SO THE ROAD MAY BECOME A LITTLE BIT OF A SAFER PLACE. WHEN MY WIFE HAD THIS HAPPEN OTHER DRIVERS WERE NOT COURTEOUS OR UNDERSTANDING WHEN SOMEONE PUTS THEIR HAZARD LIGHTS ON THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG, THEY JUST KEPT FLYING PAST HER. NOW WITH SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME GM MAKE THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE RESOLVED. I HAVE LOOKED UP AND SAW CHEVY DOESN'T HAVE THIS ISSUE AND CHEVY IS THE SAME COMPANY. IF THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ASSOCIATION COULD CREATE THIS RECALL AND THEY COULD USE THE SAME PART FROM CHEVY THEN SURELY THIS ISSUE WOULD BE FIXED AND IT WOULD BE A SAFER VEHICLE. IF YOU WERE A COMPANY OWNER WOULDN'T YOU WANT TO STAND BY YOUR COMPANIES PRODUCTION AND CREATE SOLUTIONS IF THERE WERE THESE COMMON ISSUES? WOULDN'T YOU WANT TO HELP MAKE THE ROAD A SAFER PLACE BY ONE LITTLE FIX? IT WOULDN'T
