THREE WINDOW IN MY YUKON HAVE NOW FAILED. THE FIRST WAS THREE YEARS AGO WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ONLY ABOUT THREE YEARS OLD. TWO MORE HAVE NOW FAILED. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS COMMON TO YUKON'S. *JB
WITHIN A 4 MONTH TIME I HAVE LOST MY DRIVER-SIDE WINDOW, FRONT-PASSENGER, AND REAR DRIVER-SIDE WINDOW ALL TO FAILED WINDOW REGULATOR OR MOTORS. MOREOVER, MORE RECENTLY I HAVE HAD THE RANDOM WINDOW BLOW-OUT IN MY CARGO AREA. NOT TO MENTION THE THROTTLE STICKING. THIS IS UNREAL, WHAT A NIGHTMARE, CUTE TO DRIVE HORRIBLE TO OWN!*AK
PASSENGER AND BOTH REAR SEAT POWER WINDOWS QUITE WORKING AT THE SAME TIME. THIS COULD POSSIBLY BE A DANGER IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THIS PROBLEM ON 2000 YUKONS. THROTTLE PEDAL STICKS AND YOU HAVE TO USE EXCESSIVE PRESSURE TO UNSTICK IT. THIS CAUSES YOU TO MOVE FORWARD OR BACKWARD AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN AS YOU START OFF OR ARE IN A BUSY PARKING LOT. COULD CAUSE INJURY TO PEDESTERIAN OR SMALL CHILD. I HAVE ALSO SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THIS PROBLEM FILED ON 2000 YUKONS. PASSENGER SEAT BELT TIGHTENS AS YOU RIDE TO THE POINT OF CAUSING PAIN, YOU MUST DISENGAGE SEAT BELT AND RENGAGE TO CORRECT PROBLEM. THIS IS ALSO IS A DANGER AS YOU COULD BE UNBELTED WHEN AN ACCIDENT HAPPENS. I ALSO HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS PROBLEM. THERE HAVE BEEN SERVICE BULLENTINS ON THESE PROBLEMS, BUT GM REFUSES TO PAY THE REPAIR COST ON OUR VEHICLE. THEY HAVE BEEN AWARE OF THESE PROBLEMS SINCE THESE VEHICLES WERE IN WARRANTY. I PURCHASED A 1996 YUKON NEW AND HAD IT UNTIL TRADING FOR THIS 2000 YUKON, I NEVER HAD A COMPLAINT. THEIR QUALITY ASSURANCE HAS SURE GONE DOWN HILL SINCE 1996.*AK
POWER WINDOW MOTOR FAILED, DRIVER SIDE REAR WINDOW IS INOPERABLE, STUCK IN UP POSITION, THIS SEEMS TO BE A DOCUMENTED PROBLEM WITH YUKONS
MY YUKON DIES AT STOP LIGHTS &STOP SIGNS FOR NO REASON . BOTH ELECTRIC WINDOW MOTORS HAVE FAILED . THE BACK WIDOW EXPLODED FOR NO REASON .THE FRONT SUSPENISON FEELS LOSE.THIS CAR LOOKS LIKE A 12 YEAR OLD KID PUT IT TOGETHER.*AK
HORRIBLE ODOR EMITTED THRU VENTILATION SYSTEM. DON'T KNOW IF ASSOCIATED BUT MY FAMILY HAS BEEN ILL WITH ALOT OF RESPIRATORY PROBLEMS, WALKING PNEUMONIA (2OUT OF 4) IN SAME WEEK , AND MY 5YR OLD HAS BEEN PLAGUED BY VIOLENT VOMITING. I TOOK YUKON TO MARTIN GMC SAID ODOR WAS PROBABLY CAUSED BY EITHER MOLD/FUNGUS IN THE EVAPORATOR & COILS. THE SMELL IS VERY STRONG AND NAUSEATING . THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS THRU GMC ON THIS PROBLEM. I AM WORRIED ABOUT MY FAMILIES HEALTH SINCE I HAVE CHRONIC ASTHMA AND MY CHILDREN HAVE ALLERGIES. THE DEALER IS GOING TO PUT A COATING OF CHEMICALS ON THE EVAPORATOR COILS THAT WILL (KILL?) MOLD AND FUNUS, THEN THEY WILL INSTALL AN ELECTONIC EVAPORATOR DRYER. I HOPE THIS IS GOING TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION AND NOT BE JUST A TEMPORARY FIX BECAUSE MOLD IS VERY HARD TO ERRADICATE IF YOU DO NOT GET TO THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM. I AM UPSET THAT A NEW CAR CAN HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND I'VE READ ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED CASE. DO YOU KNOW OF ANY HEALTH RISKS DUE TO THIS? THE SMELL IS AWFUL AND STRONG EVEN WITH THE A/C OFF. PLEASE LET ME KNOW OF ANY OTHER POSSIBLE REMEDIES TO THIS PROBLEM. YOU CAN EMAIL ME @ [email protected] .*AK

BOTH REAR POWER WINDOWS FAILED IN THE UP POSITION WITHIN A WEEK OF EACH OTHER.N *AK
BOTH REAR POWER WINDOWS INOPERATIVE. *AK
BOTH REAR POWER WINDOWS FAILED WITHIN A DAY OF EACH OTHER. THE WINDOWS WERE STUCK IN THE CLOSED POSITION.
THE REAR WINDOWS WILL NOT GO UP OR DOWN AND SOMETIMES THE PASSENGER WINDOW WILL NOT WRORK EITHER. I HAVE ALSO HAD A GRINDING OR RUBBING OISE FROM THE RIGHT REAR TIRE AREA THAT NO ONE CAN FIND IT ONLY DOES IT OCCASIONALLY. I CAN LIVE WITH THAT BUT THE WINDOWS NOT WORKING IS A REAL PAIN..I HAVE TALKED WITH 3 OTHER FRIENDS IN FREDERICK WHO HAVE PURCHASED NEW SUBURBANS AND THEY ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS..WHAT IS GENERAL MOTORS GOING TO DO ABOUT IT..
30 TO 40 MPH CROSS WIND. WINDOW FAILED SHOWERING DRIVER WITH GLASS. *AK
BOTH REAR POWER WINDOWS APPEAR TO HAVE SHORTED OUT. THEY ARE STUCK IN THE UP POSITION. *AK
VEHICLE WAS SITTING ON ITS OWN WHEN GLASS EXPLODED. THE WEATHER WAS NICE AROUND 80 DEGREES EVEN IF NOT THIS SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED. POSSIBLE DEFECT; POOR QUALITY OR FITTING. AND SO ON...
WHILE DRIVING HOME IN THE RIGHT LANE ON A TWO-HIGHWAY, THE DRIVER'S WINDOW SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED. I WAS DRIVING THROUGH A SWAMP-NO PEOPLE OR CONSTRUCTION SITES AROUND, NOR WAS THERE A CAR NEXT TO ME. AS THE WINDOW LOST STRENGTH FROM SHATTERING IT BOWED IN AND I PULLED OVER TO KNOCK OUT THE REST OF THE GLASS. WITH THE REMAINING GLASS AROUND THE CAR, I SUSTAINED CUTS TO MY LEFT HAND AND A PIECE FLEW INTO MY EYE AND TORE A CONTACT. MY YOUNG DAUGTER SUSTAINED SCRATCHES ON HER SCALP DUE TO GLASS IN HER HAIR.WHEN WE ARRIVED AT THE DEALER, HE STATED THAT HE HAD HEARD THE REAR WINDOWS BLOWING OUT BUT NOT THE SIDE ONES! ALL WE WANTED TO WAS RELINGUISH THE LEASE, BUT GMC REFUSED. WE HAD TO PAY OUT- I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AS IT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN FATALITIES.THANK YOU. *AK
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
