2005 GMC YUKON XL Complaints

THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE SAME REASON, "REDUCED ENGINE POWER". IT PUTS ME IN A DANGEROUS POSITION SOMETIMES BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY GO INTO THIS "LIMP MODE" I HAVE SPENT SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS IN REPAIRS AND FIXES BY QUALIFIED MECHANICS AND YET THIS PROBLEM WILL NOT GO AWAY. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH I FIND THAT I AMONG MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. IT HAPPENED THREE TIMES YESTERDAY!

I HAVE A BRAKE PROBLEM, THE DYNAMIC ELECTRONIC BRAKE SYSTEM TURNS ON AT TIMES DURING RUNNING AND THE RIM HEATS UP AND A STRONG SMELL OF BRAKES COMES OUT, ON TWO OCCASIONS THE REAR TIRES EXPLODED AND I CAUSED AN ACCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NEW IN 2005, THE DEALER CHANGED THE BRAKES, ABS AND OTHER COMPONENTS, BUT THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PROBLEM, THEN IN 2010 AGAIN, I CHANGED ALL THE COMPONENTS RELATED TO THE BRAKES BUT IT REMAINS THE SAME. SOMETIMES THE DYNAMIC BRAKE IS ACTIVATED AND THE RINGS AND REAR RUBBERS ARE HEATED. I DO NOT USE THE VEHICLE FOR LONG ROADS FOR SAFETY. I BOUGHT IT IN 2005 AND IT NOW HAS 73,100 MILES. I AM LOOKING FOR IF ANY DEALER OR OWNER IN THE USA HAS OR HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THANK YOU..

2005 GMC YUKON. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO MOVEMENT OF FUEL PUMP IN FUEL TANK, CUTS FUEL RETURN LINE, HARD TO START. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE MOVEMENT OF THE FUEL PUMP IN THE FUEL TANK CUT THE FUEL RETURN LINE. THE VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT TO START. UPDATED 07/13/2017*JS

"SERVICE AIR BAG" LIGHT COMES ON AT RANDOM, AND WITHOUT REASON. NO TROUBLE CODES COME UP, THEREFORE NO WAY TO TELL IF SOMETHING IS REALLY WRONG.

MY 2005 YUKON XL WILL, AT RANDOM, SHIFT ITSELF INTO 4 WHEEL LO. IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING AND AT SPEEDS OF 30+ MPH. ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE PUSH-BUTTON 4WD CONTROL MODULE WILL LIGHT UP OR FLASH. NO AMOUNT OF BUTTON-PUSHING WILL DISENGAGE 4 WHEEL DRIVE. I THE CAR WILL SLAM TO A 5 MPH CRAWL WHEN IT DOES THIS. ALSO THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM DEACTIVATES AT THE SAME TIME. HAS HAPPENED OVER 40 TIMES NOW.

WHILE DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH I EXPERIENCE A TOTAL TIRE FAILURE WHEREAS THE MIDDLE 4 INCHES OF THE TREAD/BELT AREA OF MY BF GOODRICH LT245/75 R 16 LRE M+S COMMERCIAL T/A ALL SEASON BF11 JD11 4011 TIRE COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE'S CORE, RESULTING IN THE REMAINDER OF THE TIRE'S TREAD/BELT TO CONTINUE STRIPPING AWAY CAUSING SIGNIFICANT WHEEL WELL, REAR QUARTER PANEL, GAS TUB, AND ELECTRICAL HARNESS DAMAGE TO MY 2005 YUKON XL 2500. TIRES HAD JUST PASSED A NC SAFETY INSPECTION, WERE PROPERLY INFLATED WITH 38,000 MILES ON THEM.

MIDDLE ROW PASSENGER SEAT DOES NOT CLICK INTO PLACE WITH OUT SHOVING IT BACK SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL IT "LATCHES" (AFTER ALLOWING CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT THEN TRYING TO PUT SEAT BACK INTO PLACE). IF NOT CLICKED IN THE SEAT SLIDES BACK AND FORTH. *TR
