ANTI-LOCK BRAKE FAILURE ON 2002 YUKON DENALI IN MICHIGAN. MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM OF THE RECALL. THOUGH MY VEHICLE FALLS UNDER THE RECALL.

PLEASE GET GM TO PUT VEHICLE REQUIRED BY RECALL IN THEIR SYSTEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2002 YUKON DENALI AWD. I TOOK A LONG TRIP THIS WEEK FOR VACATION AND NOTICED THAT THE ABS LIGHT AS BEEN COMING ON AND OFF, AND NOW ITS ON ALL THE TIME. WHENEVER IM MOVING AT LOW SPEEDS IT TENDS TO PULSE WHEN I BRAKE OR HAVE THE ABS ACTIVATE MAKING AN EASY SLOW STOP BECOME AND LONG STOP THAT HAS MADE ME SWERVE TO MISS MANY NEAR COLLISIONS IN THE PAST FEW DAYS. IM ALSO HEARING A KNOCKING SOUND AT LOW SPEEDS IN THE DRIVE SIDE WHEEL ONLY WHEN I TURN RIGHT, BETWEEN THE 2 THAT HAVE JUST RECENTLY APPEARED MADE MY 900 MILE TRIP A NIGHTMARE, NOT KNOWING WHAT IT IS. I'VE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM ONLINE AND NOTICE THERE WAS A RECALL IN CANADA FOR THE SAME PROBLEM AND THAT THE COMPLAINTS ARE NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO GET IT IN THE U.S. SO HOW MANY PPL NEED TO RISK BEING INJURED OR KILLED FOR GM TO DO THE RIGHT THING. THEY OBVIOUSLY NO SOMETHING IS WRONG AND IS NOT WILLING TO HELP THE CONSUMERS. THANKS *TR

ANTILOCK BRAKES PULSE AND MAKE ACTIVATION NOISE AT LOW SPEED REGARDLESS OF ROAD CONDITIONS. *TR

I OWN A 2002 GMC YUKON DENALI AND LITTLE BY LITTLE THE LIGHTS BEHIND THE INSTRUMENTS ON THE DASH AND STEERING WHEEL BUTTONS HAVE BLOWN OUT. THE DEALER SAID THE ONLY REPLACEMENT WOULD BE FOR THE ENTIRE UNITS AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. COMPONENTS WORK FINE BUT CANNOT SEE AT NIGHT WHICH MAKES DRIVING AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE INSTRUMENTS ARE DIFFICULT.*JB

WHILE PARKING THE TRUCK THE PARKING BRAKE WENT TO THE FLOOR AND DOES NOT HOLD THE TRUCK FROM MOVING , EVEN AFTER PARKING IN THE DRIVEWAY. MECHANIC STATED THAT THIS IS COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE TRUCKS AND MAY NEED TO REPLACE ROTORS AND PADS DEPENDING ON SEVERITY. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED SINCE THIS SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING PROBLEM AS NOTED IN OTHER COMPLAINTS. DON'T HAVE LARGE SUM OF MONEY TO CORRECT WITH NEW PART COSTS. *JB
