2007 GMC YUKON Complaints

MY DASH CRACKED AND IS VERY SHARP.. I AM WORRIED ABOUT IT IN AN ACCIDENT WITH THE AIRBAG. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT SPONTANEOUSLY ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT ALERTED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

THERE ARE MULTIPLE CRACKS IN THE DASH THAT CAME OUT OF NO WHERE THE VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN A COLLISION. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED TO GM BY HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE DUE TO THIS VERY COMMON ISSUE, BUT THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. MY MAIN CONCERN IS ONE OF THE CRACKS IS BY THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WHICH COULD BE A HAZARD DURING A COLLISION OR AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. WITH A POSSIBLE CHANCE OF SHARP PLASTIC EXPOSED DUE TO THE CRACKS IN THE DASH CUTTING THE AIRBAG OR SHARDS OF PLASTIC BECOMING PROJECTILES POTENTIALLY CAUSING INJURY TO OCCUPANTS. THE OTHER CRACK IN THE DASH IS ON THE DRIVER SIDE TO THE LEFT OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER I SUSPECT THE DASH WILL CONTINUE TO CRACK IN MORE SPOTS AS TIME GOES ON. I FEEL LIKE THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS THIS IS A FLAW IN EITHER MATERIALS OR DESIGN. *TR

STARTED THE MOTOR IN THE MORNING NOTICED A LIGHT TICKING NOISE COME FROM THE MOTOR. SOUNDS LIKE THE LIFTERS ARE TAPPING. THE NOISE USE TO ONLY BE IN THE MORNING BUT NOW IT IS CONSTANT. TOOK IT TO A REPAIR SHOP FOR A DIAGNOSIS WAS INFORMED THAT THE LIFTERS ARE GOING BAD!!!!! WAS TOLD IT WAS GOING TO COST AROUND 3000.00 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET I COULD NOT BELIEVE HOW MANY OTHER GM OWNERS WERE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE A RECALL PLACED ON THESE MOTORS I THINK IT IS UNFAIR THAT WE HAVE TO PAY OUT SO MUCH MONEY TO OWN A NICE CAR JUST TO HAVE IT TURN INTO A BIG PILE. MY LOW MILEAGE CAR SOUNDS LIKE IT HAS 200000 MILES ON IT. *TR

GMC IS CURRENTLY ADMITTING TO FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH FAILURE. WHEN I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE THREE YEARS AGO EVERY YEAR THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE FILED A COMPLAINT LAST YEAR IN 2013 NEVER HEARD BACK FROM DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN FIXING ISSUE BUT NOT TAKEN CARE OF IT PROPERLY. LOOKED AT RECALL LIST BUT THE 2007 GMC YUKON WAS NOT INCLUDED. CAN YOU PLEASE ADVISE? *TR

THE DASH ON MY VEHICLE HAS CRACKED AND FEEL THAT IF THE AIR BAG IS EVER DEPLOYED IT WILL SEND PLASTIC FLYING INTO MY PASSENGERS FACE OR CUT THE AIR BAG. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO GM ABOUT THIS AND DO NOT FEEL THAT ITS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD BE $1,100 THE FIRST TIME I CALLED AND AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS THEY ARE TELLING ME THEY COULD DO IT FOR $500 NOW. I STILL FEEL THAT THIS IS GM'S ISSUE AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR THE SAFETY OF THE CONSUMERS. *TR

TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH ON A PARTLY SUNNY DAY, APPROXIMATELY 27 DEGREES OUTSIDE WITH MY HEATER ON, MY SUNROOF SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED WITH A SOUND SIMILAR TO A GUNSHOT. AT THAT POINT, THE GLASS DID NOT FALL BUT WAS CRACKED INTO THOUSANDS OF PIECES. LATER AS I DROVE THE GLASS BEGAN TO FALL APART. I WAS NOT FOLLOWING ANY VEHICLE AND WAS NOT DRIVING UNDER A BRIDGE OR AROUND ANY TREES SO THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD HAVE STRUCK MY SUNROOF. THE ROADWAY WAS SMOOTH AND MY SUNROOF HAS NEVER SUSTAINED ANY DAMAGE IN THE PAST. *TR

A LARGE CRACK OCCURS IN DASH AROUND AREA OF AIRBAG AS WELL AS A CRACK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DASH NEAR INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. *TR
