2007 GMC YUKON XL 1500 Complaints

I BOUGHT 2007 DENALI ON 8/15 AND IT HAD TO GO IN FOR REPAIR 8/17 BECAUSE THE ENGINE HOT/AC TURNED OFF CAME ON. GOT THE CAR BACK 8/20 AT 7PM AND 8 AM THE NEXT MORNING 8/21 THE SAME MESSAGE CAME UP ON THE DASH BOARD. I WAS TOLD IT WAS OK TO DRIVE UNTIL I COULD GET IT IN FOR REPAIR AGAIN ON 8/22. TRIED TO START THE CAR ON 8/22 AND THE CAR WOULDN'T START. I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE AT ALL AND WOULD LIKE TO GET A BRAND NEW TRUCK AS SINCE I AM PAYING $48,000 FOR THE TRUCK. *TR

THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR GOES ON AND OFF WHEN MY WIFE SITS IN IT. SHE WEIGHTS 112 LBS. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE DAY WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW AT THE DEALER. WE ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS AND THE DEALERSHIP GAVE US BLANKET STATEMENTS. THE DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED THE SENSOR IN THE SEAT, HOWEVER THE SAME PROBLEM PERSISTS. THE SERVICE MANAGER MIKE WITNESSED THE PROBLEM. AS MENTIONED, WE ARE VERY VERY CONCERNED. *TR

THE BRAKES MAKE VERY LOUD NOISE. THERE IS UNEVEN PAD WEAR AND BRAKE SCORING. THE VEHICLE HAS 3500 MILES AND IS BRAND NEW CONDITION. THE DEALER SAID SUCH NOISE, PAD WEAR AND SCORING IS NORMAL.*JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE DVD ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM. THE CONTACT HAD TO USE THE REMOTE CONTROL IN ORDER TO TURN THE DVD SCREEN ON AND OFF BECAUSE THE SCREEN DOES NOT HAVE A POWER BUTTON. THIS MADE IT DIFFICULT AND UNSAFE FOR THE DRIVER TO ATTEMPT TO TURN THE SYSTEM ON WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALERSHIP WAS CONTACTED, AND DETERMINED THAT THE DVD SCREEN WORKED AS DESIGNED. UPDATED 11/30/2006 - IN ORDER TOT URN THE SCREEN ON THE CONSUMER HAD TO LEAN BACK IN THE SEAT AND POINT THE REMOTE TOWARDS THE SCREEN. SOMETIME IT TOO 4-5 ATTEMPTS BEFORE THE SCREEN WOULD TURN ON. *NM

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE DRIVER SIDE MIRROR HAD A LOT OF VIBRATION. THE DEALERSHIP INSTALLED FOAM IN AN ATTEMPT TO REPAIR, BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED.

2007 GMC DENALI ROLLED BACKWARD AFTER KEY WAS REMOVED AND VEHICLE IN "PARK". CONSUMER WAS UNABLE TO STOP VEHICLE AS IT ROLLED ABOUT 100 YARDS IN LENGTH DOWN APPROXIMATELY 20 FEET. CONSUMER COULD HAVE RECEIVED MAJOR INJURIES AS VEHICLE WENT OVER A 4 FOOT WALL DURING INCIDENT AND SHE WAS UNABLE TO GET IN TO ATTEMPT TO STOP, BUT HAD TO HANG ON STEERING WHEEL IN ORDER TO NOT GET RUN OVER. *JB

I JUST PURCHASED A 2007 YUKON XL DENALI. IT IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE 2 TETHER ANCHORS IN THE THIRD PASSENGER ROW - IT ONLY HAS 1. I WAS TOLD BEFORE PURCHASING DURING MY COMPARISONS THAT IS WAS LISTED AS HAVING 2. MY OWNERS MANUAL SAID IT HAS 2 AND EVEN HAS A PICTURE OF THEIR LOCATIONS. THERE IS ONLY ONE. I CONTACTED GMC THEY SAID IT MUST OF BEEN A MISPRINT AND IS ILLEGAL TO RETROFIT A TETHER. I HAVE CHILD SEATS IN THE 3RD ROW THAT REQUIRE TETHERS. I NEED AT LEAST 2. THEY BASICALLY SAID TOO BAD. *JB

THE MONITOR FOR THE REAR ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM IS OBSTRUCTING MY REAR VIEW MIRROR VIEW. BETWEEN THE MONITOR AND THE REAR GATE WINDOW LATCH I HAVE ABOUT 2 INCHES OF MID VIEW THAT IS NOT CAUGHT BY THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS. THEY SAID THEY WERE SENDING ME A COUPON FOR AN OIL CHANGE - NOT A GOOD SOLUTION IN MY MIND. *JB
