TAMARA RECALL. THIS RECALL HAS BEEN SINCE 2016 AND STILL NOT RESOLVE. I AM ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY AND PCSING OVERSEAS. I HAVE TO SHIP MY VEHICLE AND THEY WILL NOT SHIP IT WITH AN UNRESOLVED RECALL. I AM NOT SURE WHAT ELSE TO DO...I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND GMC AND THEY OFFER NO RESOLUTION FOR MY ISSUES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 GMC YUKON DENALI. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED IN THE MIDDLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE DASHBOARD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SUNTRUP BUICK GMC (4200 I-70 NORTH OUTER RD, ST. PETERS, MO 63376, (866) 504-7492) WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE DASHBOARD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,314.

THE CAR SEAT WARMER IN THE BACK OF THE CAR CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE OUR SEVEN YEAR OLD WAS ASLEEP IN THE CAR. HE WAS IN HIS BOOSTER SEAT. THE SEAT WARMER WAS NOT ON. (THIS WAS IN AUGUST 2018.) WE SMELLED A BURNING SMELL AND THERE WAS A SMOLDERING FLAME UNDER HIS LEGS. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY, NOT IN MOTION. IT WAS IDLING IN A PARKING LOT.

2011 GMC DENALI. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE ENGINE AND BATTERY. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED AS HE WAS DRIVING, THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN TO ROUGHLY 35 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHERE A DIAGNOSIS REVEALED A FAILED BATTERY. HOWEVER, THE BATTERY HAD JUST BEEN REPLACED ONE YEAR EARLIER.

THE SEAT CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE THE CAR WAS RUNNING. MY CHILD WAS SLEEPING AND SMOKE WAS COMING OUT FROM UNDER HIS BOOSTER SEAT AND HIS LEGS. I CONTACTED GMC AND THEY SAID THIS HAD NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE AND WE SHOULD CONTACT OUR INSURANCE COMPANY, THOUGH, WHEN WE TOOK IT TO THE TECHNICIANS AT THE DEALERSHIP (FOR THE INSPECTION), THEY SAW WHERE TWO WIRES WERE ON TOP OF ONE ANOTHER AND THE SEAT HAD CAUGHT ON FIRE. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND THERE ARE MANY STORIES OUT THERE, I AM JUST NOT SURE IF PEOPLE ARE REPORTING THEM---OR IF THEY REALIZE THAT GMC MAKES SIMILAR CARS SO CADILLAC, SIERRAS, AND OTHER CARS COME FROM THE SAME MOLD.

UPPER DASH HAS SPLIT. MAKING THIS A SAFETY ISSUE IF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOY. ALSO, THE HEATED SEATS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DO NOT WORK.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 GMC YUKON DENALI. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS OF 55-60 MPH AND TRYING TO APPLY THE BRAKES, THE VEHICLE WOULD SHIMMY. HE DID NOT HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND HE FELT THAT IT WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT ILLUMINATED TWICE. FURTHERMORE, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED "HARD" AT TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHO STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER WHO STATED THAT THEY WOULD RETURN HIS CALL. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 6,000. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 325.

I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING THROUGH BOSTON IN THE FAST LANE, GOING ABOUT 70MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE ENGINE REDUCED POWER LIGHT AND MY VEHICLE TOTALLY LOST POWER TO THE GAS PEDAL. I WAS ABLE TO GET INTO THE SLOW LANE BUT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT ABLE TO GO FASTER THAN 35MPH AND THERE WAS HARDLY POWER TO MY GAS PEDAL. LUCKILY, I MADE IT TO AN OFF RAMP, AS I STARTED TO COME TO A STOP, THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING VERY ROUGH AND IT FELT LIKE IT WAS SHAKING THE VEHICLE BACK AND FORTH. I BARELY MADE IT INTO A EMPTY PARKING LOT AND SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. I MANAGED TO MAKE IT TO MY MECHANIC, WHO GOT A THROTTLE SENSOR CODE FROM THE ENGINE. HE TOLD ME ABOUT A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT #12273B FROM GMC, REGARDING THIS EXACT ISSUE AND TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO GMC. GMC TOLD ME, MY VEHICLE ISN'T LISTED FOR THIS ADJUSTMENT, EVEN THOUGH, IT SAYS IT SHOULD COVER 2008-20111 GMC YUKONS. APPARENTLY, GMC SAID MY VIN ISN'T LISTED AS HAVING THE FAULTY PART. I ALMOST DIED THIS MORNING IN THE FAST LANE IN BOSTON WITH THE EXACT PROBLEM GMC DESCRIBES IN THE 12273B. GMC SAID I'M NOT COVERED AND HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. ABSURD. *TR

I PURCHASED A RADIAN 80SLMODEL # US18500 ABOUT 6 MONTHS OR SO AGO AND I HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH IT COMING LOSE WITH THE LATCH SYSTEM AND SEATBELT. I DISCONTINUED USING IT AND HAD TO BUY A REPLACEMENT SEAT FOR MY 3 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. I NEVER COULD GET THE SEATBELT TO TIGHTEN ENOUGH TO NOT MOVE A GREAT AMOUNT. THE LATCH SYSTEM WAS THE SAME. I DRIVE A YUKON 2011. SEAT WAS INSTALLED IN CENTER AND THIRD ROW. (RELATED VEHICLE INFORMATION: MODEL YEAR=2011, MAKE=YUKON XL, MODEL=GMC). *TR
