2013 GMC YUKON Complaints

MY YUKON DENALI WAS BACKED INTO WHILE PARKED AT MY WORK PARKING LOT AND WHEN I GOT INTO THE VEHICLE TO DRIVE TO THE REPAIR SHOP I NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED IN THE UPPER LEFT SIDE OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I INFORMED THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER ABOUT THE CRACK AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULD DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. HE INSTRUCTED THAT I TAKE THE VEHICLE TO GMC AND HAVE THEM FILE A CLAIM. I THEN WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT GM WOULD PROBABLY DENY MY CLAIM, WHICH THEY DID. SO NOW IM STUCK WITH A CRACKED DASHBOARD IN MY OTHERWISE PERFECT VEHICLE. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW.

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD GOING ABOUT 45 MPH AND VEHICLE FELT LIKE IT LOST POWER THEN IT COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. HAD ONLY GONE ABOUT 3 MILES WHEN IT HAPPENED. WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SHOULDER AND RESTART VEHICLE TO DRIVE BACK HOME. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS OR ANYTHING. IT DID SEEM LIKE THE ENGINE WAS REVVING ITSELF FOR A FEW SECONDS WHEN I RESTARTED IT. THEN IT SEEMED NORMAL AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE APPROXIMATE 3 MILES BACK WITHOUT ANY ISSUES.

THE DASH IS CRACKING OVER AIR BAGS WHICH COULD THROW PIECES AS AIR BAG DEPLOYS OR COULD PUNCTURE AIRBAG AS IT DEPLOYS.

CRACKS STARTED APPEARING FOR NO REASON. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 24,200 MILES AND HAS BEEN KEPT IN GARAGE.

THE DASH NEAR THE AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ALL OF A SUDDEN CRACKED. CURRENT MILEAGE IS 38,692.

DASHBOARD IS CRACK AND CRACK IS EXPANDING.... CHEAP MATERIAL VERY DISAPPOINTED

THE DASH IS CRACKED JUST AS ALL OTHERS FROM THE SAME ERA. IT IS CRACKED IN THE SAME PLACE AS THE OTHERS ALSO. THIS POSES AN ISSUE SHOULD THE PASSENGER AIRBAG GO OFF. FOR THIS REASON MY DAUGHTER IS NOT ALLOWED IN THE FRONT SEAT.

DEEP CRACKS IN DASHBOARD, INCLUDING PASSENGER AIRBAG AREA, COULD POSE SERIOUS RISK BY AFFECTING THE DEPLOYMENT OF AIRBAG. THIS IS APPARENTLY CAUSED BY THE POOR QUALITY PLASTIC MATERIAL USED TO MANUFACTURE THE DASHBOARD. THIS MATERIAL CANNOT WITHSTAND THE SUMMER/HOT CLIMATE.

MY DASH IS BROKEN IN MANY PLACES AND KEEPS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. IT IS BROKEN AROUND THE AIRBAG MY FEAR IS IF THE AIRBAG ACTIVATES IT WILL BREAK OFF PART OF THE DASH THROWING IT INTO THE PASSENGERS FACE. WITH THE AMOUNT OF FORCE A AIRBAG HAD THIS COULD REALLY BE DANGEROUS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC YUKON. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE BRAKE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ADDED BRAKE FLUID TO THE VEHICLE AND THE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AGAIN, BUT THERE WAS NO FLUID LEAKING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE BRAKE FLUID WAS LEAKING INTO THE VACUUM CANISTER FOR THE POWER BRAKE. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETECTED UNLESS THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT REPAIRED THE VEHICLE HIMSELF. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 134,000.
