2006 Gmc Yukon xl

This is the 2nd GMC Yukon with a faulty drivetrain I've acquired in 3 years. Both occasions were directly after the vehicle had professional service done related to the faulty system. The transmissions was fully serviced at reputable repair shops and within a month or 2, without warning, the transmissions started having mechanical issues without DTC being triggered. As well as a 2004 Buick Rendezvous with less than 70k miles on it. The 2001 GMC Yukon suddenly lost reverse and park while driving and imploded the transmission in the process. The 2004 Buick Rendezvous started slipping and ceased to move by it's own power when at operating temperature. The 2006 GMC Yukon Denali stopped shifting gears while on the freeway at 55 mph and systematically lost all moving gears within a day also while at operating temperature.

My GMC YukonXL Denali has faulty fuel gauges therefore there is no way I can determine if I'm are out of gas or not. Sometimes it displays that my tank is on empty and sometimes it display that I am full. I found online that over time, the contacts in the fuel-level sensor could wear and cause an incorrect reading on the gas gauge. In 2011 GM said that they would pay to repair.

The Brake lines are not coded so the brake line rusted and when brakes got applied they burst causing accidents for no pressure and can’t stop. Air bags light stays on and will not go out. I have put new lights bulbs in truck but lights are still dim.

Driver side steering wheel safety air bag defective, warning light on dashboard says not functioning. Nervous about driving vehicle if there is a collision. Gas gauge misreads fuel level and check engine warning light keeps coming on. Ran out of fuel a few times. Has been checks problem keeps coming back on both.

MY STABILITY TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM ENGAGES IN DRY WEATHER WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, ADDITIONALLY, THE SYSTEM ENGAGES AT MODERATE SPEEDS WHICH CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO SLOW SPEEDS IN TRAFFIC. ALSO, THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES ENGAGE IN DRY WEATHER AT SLOW SPEEDS WHEN BRAKING. THESE SITUATIONS HAVE OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS FOR THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS

IT HAPPENED REPEATEDLY NOW WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY THE STEERING WOULD GET SLOPPY AT RANDOM MOMENTS AND KEEPING THE VEHICLE IN ITS LANE BECOMES DIFFICULT. I REPLACED TIE RODS INNER & OUTER, UPPER/LOWER BALL JOINTS PITMAN ARM AND IDLER, SWAYBAR LINKS SHOCKS/STRUTS. I EVEN HAD TWO DIFFERENT MECHANICS LOOK AT THE STEERING COMPONENTS. BOTH SAID EVERYTHING IS IN GOOD SHAPE. THIS ONLY HAPPENS AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK A MONTH AGO

DRIVER SEAT NOT MOVING FORWARD I'VE SEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ALSO THE GAS GAUGE ISN'T WORK NOR IS THE SPEEDOMETER WE REPLACED STEPPING MOTORS STILL NOT WORKING THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD KNOWING HOW FAST I'M GOING..

AIRBAG FAILED FUNCTION DUE TO LACK OF INFLATOR PERFORMANCE DURING MY HUSBANDS HEAD-ON CRASH AND HE SUFFERED COLLAR BONE AND RIB FRACTURES,MASSIVE HEAD TRAUMA RESULTING IN A CRAINIOTOMY,BRAIN DAMAGE AND DEATH ONE MONTH LATER. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELLING AT 45MPH ON A PAVED TWO LANE STREET.

CODES P1516, P2135, AND P0120 HAVE RETURNED FOR A THIRD TIME. I WAS DRIVING AND MY CAR WENT INTO REDUCED POWER MODE. LUCKILY, I WAS JUST A MILE AWAY FROM HOME AND LIMPED MY CAR HOME. I'VE SINCE CLEANED THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR AND THROTTLE BODY. I'VE CHANGED OUT THE TPS AND ACCELERATION SENSOR. I'VE CHECKED ALL MY GROUNDS AND THESE CODES KEEP COMING BACK. I'VE NOTICED OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUES WHICH IS WHY I DID THE STEPS LISTED ABOVE. I'VE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC WHO SAID THAT I DID EVERY STEP THEY'VE WOULD HAVE DONE TO TROUBLESHOOT THIS PROBLEM. SOMEONE FROM GM NEEDS TO THIS ISSUE, AS I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT THIS IS OCCURRING TO.

FULL BRAKE FAILURE IN 7/19 AND AGAIN IN 10/19. WE WERE ABLE TO AVOID HITTING OTHER VEHICLE AS LITTLE TRAFFIC. HAD THEM COMPLETELY REPAIRED BOTH TIMES. 1/20 BRAKES FAILED AGAIN CAUSING US TO AVOID HITTING OTHER VEHICLES BY JUMPING A CURB AND HITTING A MILE MARKER SIGN A PARKWAY. THAT IS 3 BRAKES FAILURES IN 7 MONTHS. VEHICLE IS NOW TOTALED. THIS SEEMS TO BE A HUGE ISSUE! NO INJURIES, THANK GOD!

BRAKES FAILED WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS OR AND KIND OF INDICATION . FLUID DRIPPING OUT REAR OF VEHICLE. I WAS ALMOST IN A BAD ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS ,ALSO WENT INTO A PANIC ATTACK. HAD OTHER PEOPLE AND MY LIFE IN DANGER.

THE PASSENGER SIDE UNDER DASH BORED CAUGHT ON FIRE. WILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET IT STARTED TO SMOKE AND I SAW FLAM. I WAS ABLE TO PUT FLAM OUT AND LUCKY WAS A BLOCK FROM HOME. I PARKED IT TURNED IT OFF IT SEAMED LIKE THE FIRE WAS OUT AND NO SMOKE .ABOUT 15 MIN LATER I GO OUT SIDE AND MY TRUCK IS IN FIRE IT BURNT THE WHOLE IN SIDE OF CAB. I BELIEVE IT WAS THE MOTER BLOWER THAT SET ON FIRE DUE TO THATS WERE FIRE CAME FROM .AS WELL WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT STILL PERFECT CONDITION. SO ALL FIRE DAMAGE I'S COMPLETEY INSIDE SUV WERE THE MOTER BLOWER IS .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC YUKON. WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP LIGHT, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE TRACTION ACTIVE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. ALSO, WHEN MAKING TURNS, THE STEERING WHEEL MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 101,000.

REAR LIFT GLASS HINGES ARE DEFECTIVE AND GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE ISSUES FOR YEARS AND HAS NOT ISSUED ANY RECALL TO REPLACE. POOR DESIGN IS THE PROBLEM. GLASS FLEW OFF WHILE DRIVING IN NORMAL CONDITIONS. SAFELITE AUTO (972.379-2704) REPLACED GLASS ON 6/16/18. DEFECTIVE HINGE BROKE AGAIN, ON 7/3/18. SAFELITE REPLACED GLASS WITH OEM PART. DEFECTIVE HINGE FAILED AGAIN FROM OEM PART ON 7/11/18. SAFELITE CONTACT LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP, (CLASSIC CHEVY, PLANO, TX, 469.685.1560). ANOTHER OEM PART WILL BE REPLACED ON 7/16/18. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. URL REFERENCE: HTTPS://WWW.GMINSIDENEWS.COM/FORUMS/F31/03-YUKON-XL-REAR-GLASS-HINGES-35335/ NHTSA PLEASE INVESTIGATE ASAP FOR SOMEONE IS HURT OR KILLED FROM THE GLASS FLYING OFF. THANK YOU.

KNOWN PROBLEM, BRAKE FAILURE DUE TO RUSTED BRAKE LINES. NEARLY HAD A REAR EMD COLLISION WHEN THEY FAILED TRYING TO STOP AT 50 MPH. A LARGE TRUCK WAS DISABLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I SWERVED INTO THE LEFT LANE, SINCE I COULDN STOP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC YUKON XL. WHILE AT A STOP, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED EVENTUALLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO PERFORMED AN ON-SCREEN DRIVING TEST, BUT WAS UNABLE TO FIND THE FAILURE CODES. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED (JOHN PAUL'S GMC, GREENFIELD, WI, 414-482-6246) AND THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE FAILURE COULD NOT DUPLICATED BECAUSE THE DEALER USED THE SAME DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM AS THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 180,000.

MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 70 MPH WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY CAR LOST POWER TO 30 MPH ALL THE WAY DOWN TO 5 MPH.I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR TRYING TO GAIN SPEED WITHOUT SUCCESS THE CAR DID NOT ACCELERATE MORE THAN 30 MPH, NO MATTER HOW MUCH I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR. WHEN I LOOKED DOWN AT THE DASHBOARD I SAW TWO WARNING LIGHTS GO OFF "STABILITY SYS DISABLED" FOLLOWED BY "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO MOVE TO SAFETY. THE ROAD WAS DRY AND NO BUMPS TO DISABLE STABILITY. THE TRACTION CONTROL IN THIS VEHICLE IS LOCATED FAR FROM MY STEERING WHEEL SO I KNOW I DID NOT ACCIDENTLY HIT THE TRACTION CONTROL BY ACCIDENT. AFTER I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER I WAS ADVISED TO HIT THE TRACTION CONTROL BUTTON TO SEE IF THAT WOULD FIX THE ERROR IN THE DASH. THAT DID NOT WORK. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO THE DEALER CONCERN FOR MY SAFETY AND THAT OF MY FAMILY. THE DEALER HAS HAD MY FOR SEVERAL DAYS RETURNED MY CAR BACK ONCE STATING THAT IT WAS DUE TO MASTER AIR FLOW SENSOR ALONG WITH THE AIR FILTER ONCE THOSE PARTS WERE REPLACED I PICKED UP MY CAR AS SOON AS I PICKED UP THE CAR AND DROVE IT AROUND THE CORNER I EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE. I DROVE IT BACK TO THE DEALER AT 5 MPH AS I WAS NOT ABLE TO GO ANY FASTER NO MATER HOW MUCH I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR. 2ND TIME THE CAR WAS RETURNED TO ME I WAS TOLD IT WAS JUST THE BUTTERFLY IN THE THROTTLE BODY AND THAT IT WAS REPLACED FOR A NEW ONE. I WAS DRIVING AWAY AND GOT JUST A LITTLE FARTHER THAN THE FIRST TIME WHEN I GOT THE SAME ERROR MESSAGE AGAIN I DROVE IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY THEY REPLACED THAT BUT ITS STILL HAVING ISSUES. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A SAFETY HAZARD WHILE DRIVING I WANT THIS NOTED IN CASE THERE IS A MAJOR ACCIDENT WITH FATALITIES.

BONDDOGBONDDOG AUGUST 2006 EDITED JUNE 2015 IN GMC I PURCHASED MY 2006 YUKON LAST SEPTEMBER 2005. I NOW HAVE 24,000 MILES ON IT. OVER THE LAST MONTH I HAVE HAD IT INTO THE DEALER THREE TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS THAT WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT WILL SUDDENLY LOSE ALMOST ALL POWER. THE INFORMATION CENTER WILL DISPLAY THE MESSAGES: "STABILITY CONTROL DISABLED", "ENGINE POWER REDUCED". AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT GO OVER 20 MPH ON A LEVEL SURFACE AND BEARLY 3 MPH UP A MODERATELY STEEP HILL. EACH TIME I HAVE HAD IT INTO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR THEY HAVE BEEEN STUMPED BY WHAT THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM IS. THEY SAID THAT GM/GMC TOLD THEM THAT "GM IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR IT AT THIS TIME". HOW CAN A MANUFACTURER SELL A VEHICLE THAT HAS A DEFECT AND NOT HAVE A FIX FOR IT? WHEN THE POWER GOES OUT IN A BUSY INTERSECTION OR ON A HIGHWAY THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM.
