2001 GMC Yukon Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT PULLING UP TO A STOP LIGHT, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND WENT TO THE FLOORBOARD EXTENDING THE BRAKING DISTANCE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ABS AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE LINE DISINTEGRATED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 200,000.

ON 01/23/2018 I GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE BRAKES WHEN APPLIED HESITATED FOR A FEW THEN FINALLY TOOK HOLD BUT BY THAT TIME IT WAS TO LATE AND I ENDED UP ON SOMEONES LAWN AFTER CRASHING THROUGH THEIR WHITE PICKET FENCE, THEN ROLLING COMPLETELY OVER ON ITS TOP, TOTALLY THE YUKON. MY CONCERN IS THE NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AT ALL. THANKFULLY, I ONLY RECEIVED MINOR SCRAPES AND BRUISES. PLUS, I AM VERY SORE STILL. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD OF BEEN A WORSE CASE, WHERE I GOT SERIOUSLY INJURED OR EVEN DEATH BECAUSE THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY UPON IMPACT. I HAVE NOTIFIED MY INSURANCE COMPANY TO MAKE SURE THERE IS A WRITTEN PAPER TRAIL PERTAINING TO THESE ISSUES WITH THE YUKON. SPECIFICALLY, THE BRAKES NOT CATCHING IN TIME AND THE AIRBAGS NOT DEPLOYING. I WOULD APPRECIATE A RESPONSE BACK TO THIS MATTER AS SOON AS YOU CAN. I ALSO BELIEVE THAT THE ACCIDENT MIGHT NOT OF RESULTED IN TOTALING MY VEHICLE IF THE BRAKES WERE WORKING PROPERLY. WHEN I APPLIED BRAKES IT FELT LIKE THEY WERE CATCHING BUT SEEMED TO TAKE FOREVER TO STOP SOON ENOUGH, ALMOST A HESITATION ON THE BRAKES PART. PLUS, THE AIRBAGS DID NOT WORK EITHER. SO I NEED TO KNOW WHERE I CAN FILE A CLAIM PERTAINING TO TOTALING MY VEHICLE BECAUSE OF FAULTY BRAKES AND AIRBAGS NOT DEPLOYING. THIS COULD OF BEEN A WORSE CASE! THANK YOU

THE METAL PIECE HOLDING THE 3RD ROW SEAT OF MY 2001 YUKON SNAPPED. IT IS AN ALUMINUM PIECE WITH A HARD COAT OF PLASTIC ON IT. I DO HAVE THE PIECE. WHEN I WAS AT THE DEALER TALKING TO THEM, THEY MENTIONED SOMEONE ELSE HAD JUST BEEN IN FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. MY ISSUE IS IF I HAD BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND SOMEONE WAS IN THE THIRD ROW SEAT THEIR SAFETY WOULD HAVE BEEN HIGHLY COMPROMISED. THE THIRD ROW SEATS ARE HARDLY USED, SO WEAR AND TEAR SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE. *JB

NOTICED BRAKE FLUID DRIPPING UNDER THE FRONT OF THE DRIVERS DOOR ON THE GROUND. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED HOME AND LOOKED UNDER THE VEHICLE AND THE BRAKE LINE WAS DRIPPING FLUID. THE BRAKE LINES ARE COMPLETELY RUSTED AND THE FRAME IS REALLY RUSTED. JUST GOT THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE GMC SHOP FOR ROUTINE SERVICE. CAN'T FIGURE WHY THEY DIDN'T NOTICE OR AT LEAST TELL ME THAT I MIGHT HAVE A PROBLEM.I CALLED THEM AND ADVISE WHAT ISSUE I WAS HAVING. THEY ADVISED THAT GM WOULD NOT COVE THE ISSUE AND 1300.00 WOULD MAYBE COVER THE LINE REPLACEMENT PLUS. I AM NOT HAPPY. WORKED HARD TO BUY THIS VEHICLE AND NOW THAT I AM RETIRED FROM THE MILITARY I REALLY DO NOT HAVE THE FUNDS TO REPLACE THE LINES AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE RUSTY FRAME. *TR

NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I GET MY BRAKES FIXED THERE IS ALWAYS THE BREAK AND THE AIR BRAKE LIGHTS THAT APPEAR. I HAVE CHANGED TO SENSORS, FUSES AND STILL IT REMAINS. EVERY MECHANIC TELLS ME THAT NO MATTER WHAT THE BRAKE AND AIR BRAKE LIGHTS WILL APPEAR. THAT NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. SEEING ANY TYPE OF WARNING LIGHTS DRIVES ME CRAZY IF THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY BRAKES THEN THERE SHOULD BE NO WARNINGS. *TR

IN AUG 2005, THE ABS LIGHT ON OUR 2001 GMC YUKON WITH 51K MILES CAME ON AND THERE WAS A GRINDING NOISE (THE PUMP) UNDERNEATH THE DRIVER'S SIDE WHICH REMAINS ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF. THE ABS FUSE MUST BE REMOVED TO SHUT OFF THE PUMP. OUR LOCAL GMC DEALERSHIP REPAIRED IT FOR $1100 ($870 FOR THE ABS MODULE). IN SEP 2009, THE ABS FAILED AGAIN AT 91K MILES. OUR GMC DEALERSHIP HELPED COVER THE COST OF REPAIR BY COVERING THE COST OF THE MODULE. WE HAD TO WAIT 2 MONTHS (NOV 2009) BEFORE THE VEHICLE COULD BE REPAIRED BECAUSE WE WERE TOLD THAT THE MODULE WAS BEING REDESIGNED TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS. IN OCT 2014, THE ABS FAILED AGAIN AT 138K MILES. OUR GMC DEALERSHIP PUT US IN CONTACT WITH GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE WITH THE HOPE THAT GMC COULD ASSIST IN COVERING THE COST OF REPAIR. AFTER SEVERAL FRUSTRATING PHONE CALLS WITH SUPERVISORS, WE WERE TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TOO OLD AND THEREFORE GMC WOULD NOT ASSIST. DURING THESE PHONE CALLS GMC STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE VEHICLE IN "SALT-BELT" STATES BUT NOT CALIFORNIA. OBVIOUSLY THE ABS MODULE IS DEFECTIVE AS A RELATIVE WITH A SIMILAR VEHICLE (CHEVY TAHOE) HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE ABS MODULE. IN SEARCHING THE INTERNET, WE FOUND A COMPANY THAT STATES THAT THEY CAN REPAIR THE MODULE FOR UNDER $100 AND GUARANTEES THE REPAIR FOR LIFE. IF THEY CAN DO THIS, WHY CAN'T GM MAKE THE NECESSARY CHANGES TO THE ABS MODULE AND GIVE CUSTOMERS THE PEACE OF MIND THAT THE VEHICLE WILL BE SAFE. HOPEFULLY THE NHTSA WILL USE THIS AND SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND FORCE GM TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THE ABS MODULE. *TR
