2010 GMC YUKON DENALI Complaints

AS WE ARE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE OUR YUKON LOSES ALL POWER, ENGINE TURNS OFF, STABILITY CONTROL MESSAGE COMES UP, TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR MESSAGE COMES UP. WE PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TRY REFIRING THE ENGINE. IT FEELS LIKE THE ENGINE IS ABOUT TO JUMP OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. WE TURN IT OFF AND WAIT ABOUT 5 MINUTES. START THE ENGINE BACK UP AFTER WAITING AND IT DRIVES OK, BUT ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO US TWICE IN TWO DAYS TIME.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKED BADLY ON DRIVERS SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE. IF AIR BAG DEPLOYS THE PLASTIC WILL BE SHATTERED AND BLOWN ACROSS THE CAB. IT WILL EVENTUALLY FALL APART ALTOGETHER AND MAKE ANY SUDDEN MOVEMENT OF HE CAR A RISKY PROPOSITION WITH THE DASHBOARD FALLING INTO THE DRIVERS LAP AND DISTRACTING HIM FROM DRIVING. IT IS A SUPPORT PROBLEM THAT HAS ALLOWED NORMAL VIBRATIONS DUE TO DRIVING TO CRACK THE PLASTIC THROUGH FATIGUE STRESS.

1. CRACKED DASHBOARD - CRACKED DASHBOARD - DASHBOARD IS DETERIORATING. NUMEROUS CRACKS. VEHICLE IS PARKED IN THE SHADE 90% OF THE TIME AND AFTER 30,000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT. THERE IS A DASHBOARD CRACK NEXT TO THE AIRBAG ON THE DASHBOARD. MY CONCERN IS WITH THE TAKATA INFLATORS AND POTENTIAL SHRAPNEL PRODUCED FROM THE ROTTING DASHBOARD BECOMING AIRBORNE DURING AN ACCIDENT. THERE IS A WEBSITE THAT SHOWS THE MAJORITY OF THESE GM DASHBOARDS ARE DEFECTIVE AND FALLING APART BEYOND COSMETIC APPEARANCE. WHAT KIND OF SAFETY TESTING HAS BEEN DONE IN RELATION TO CRACKED DASHBOARDS CAUSING INJURIES? 2. TAKATA RECALL - THERE SHOULD BE A SOLUTION TO THE TAKATA INFLATOR ISSUE AND A RECALL ON GM CRACKED PLASTIC DASHBOARDS. IT IS PAST AUGUST OF 2017 AND I HAVE HEARD NOTHING REGARDING THE AIRBAG ISSUE SOLUTION. (WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER - OURSIMAN OF ALEXANDRIA, VA ) THAT NO SOULTION IS AVAILE FOR THE AIRBAG.I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. 3. TRANSMISSION COOLER LINES - LINES HAVE BEEN LEAKING FOR YEARS. SPECIFICALLY CALLED OUT IN THE WARRANTY COVERAGE AS NOT COVERED???IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE WITH ALL YUKON AND OTHER VECHICLES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC YUKON DENALI. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VALVE LIFTERS WERE DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 142,743.

TAKATA RECALL I CANT UNDERSTAND, WHY THE DELAY? I OWN A 2010 MODEL FOR ALMOST EIGHT YEARS I HAVE BEEN DRIVING A POTENTIAL "CAR BOMB" ITS EITHER A RECALL OR NOT

DASH BOARD CRACKED OVERNIGHT IN TWO PLACES. FINE ONE DAY, BROKEN THE NEXT. RIGHT BY THE AIRBAG AREA.

THE VEHICLE HAS A CRACKED DASHBOARD WHICH CAN BE A SAFETY FEATURE FOR THE AIR BAGS ETC. GMC KNOWS THEY HAVE AN ISSUE BUT WON'T RECALL IT.

AFTER 3 YEARS I HAD MY DASHBOARD REPLACE DUE TO A CRACK & RATTLE WHICH WAS COVERED UNDER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT STILL COST ME $500. 2 YEARS LATER THE REPLACEMENT DASH HAS CRACKED AND I HAVE YET TO REPLACE IT DUE TO COST.

TAKATA RECALL: IT HAS BEEN ONE YEAR SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS RECALLED AND STILL GM HAS NO REMEDY.

GOT IN MY VEHICLE TODAY AND CRANKED IT AND HEARD A NOISE, DIDN'T HEAR IT AGAIN, SO I BACKED UP AND PUT IT IN DRIVE AND STARTED OUT OF THE PARKING LOT, AND HEARD THIS RATTLING NOISE AND LOOKED UP AND MY DASHBOARD HAD CRACKED AND THE ENTIRE MIDDLE SECTION WAS MOVING UP AND DOWN AS THE VEHICLE MOVED. I TOOK IT STRAIGHT TO THE GMC DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO CHECK, AND YES HE SAID IT HAD CRACKED AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED, COST APPROXIMATELY $800. I HAVE NOT HEARD OF A DASHBOARD ON A CAR CRACKING IN MANY YEARS. I THOUGHT TECHNOLOGY WAS TO A POINT THAT THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN ANY MORE. THEN I SEE ON LINE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE YUKON DENALI'S AND OTHER GM PRODUCTS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. SOUNDS LIKE A MATERIAL DEFECT TO ME. THIS CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AS IT IS DISTRACTING, YOU ARE TRYING TO DRIVE AND YOU HEAR THIS SQUEAKING NOISE AND THE DASH IS MOVING UP AND DOWN RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES. ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN.
