2000 Gmc Yukon

Tire Size: 265 70 16. While driving on a straight and level highway, the right rear tire sidewall completely shredded. Tire lost all air pressure and separated from the rim. I bought four General Grabber tires in July 2021. This is the second tire that the sidewall shredded. The first one shredded on the left rear side in July of 2024. There are a lot of General Grabber tires being recalled for over-cured sidewalls but it's strange that there are no recalls on this particular tire.

2000 GMC YUKON STALLS WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC FROM A STATIONARY POSITION. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES IN PAST 17 YEARS. GM DEALER NOR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC COULD REPAIR NOR WHAT IS CAUSING PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 GMC YUKON XL. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE MADE A SPUTTERING NOISE AND STALLED. THE CONTACT THEN STATED THAT THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE AND CHECK ENGINE INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT'S BOYFRIEND CALLED SMITH BUICK GMC AT 321-405-3488 (510 E NASA BLVD, MELBOURNE, FL 32901), BUT THE CALL WAS DISCONNECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

ON 11/5/17 MY 2004 GMC YUKON XL WAS INVOLVED IN A SEVERE COLLISION WHERE MY TRUCK HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE BOTH VEHICLES WERE DOING 55+ MPH. MY FRONT END TOOK ALL MY DAMAGE. NOT ONE AIRBAG WENT OFF IN MY TRUCK.

RUSTY BRAKE LINES RESULTING IN COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE. THANKFULLY THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME, SO NO ACCIDENT AS A RESULT OF THIS FAILURE.

THE SECOND ROW SEATING IN MY SUV IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE THE OPTION TO LAY DOWN OR SIT UP LIKE NORMAL. WHEN I TRIED TO LIFT THE SEAT OF THE LARGE SECTION TO LAY THE SEAT FLAT. *TR

LOW SPEED ACTIVATION OF ABS BRAKES, ON DRY PAVEMENT, EXTENDING THE STOPPING DISTANCE TO AN UNANTICIPATED LENGTH. ALTHOUGH A COLLISION DID NOT OCCUR, THE PROBLEM IS ON GOING. THIS SOUNDS LIKE THE SAME CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH ARE INCLUDED IN THE MANUFACTURER'S RECALL 05V379000. EVEN THOUGH WE ARE NOT LOCATED IN ONE OF THE 14 STATES INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, OUR STATE DOES AND HAS USED SALT AND OTHER CORROSIVE SUBSTANCES TO CLEAR ROADWAYS OF ICE AND SNOW FOR MANY YEARS. *TR

THE SECOND ROW SEATING IN MY SUV IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE THE OPTION TO LAY DOWN OR SIT UP LIKE NORMAL. WHEN I TRIED TO LIFT THE SEAT OF THE LARGE SECTION TO LAY THE SEAT FLAT, THE CABLE BROKE AS IF IT HAD BEEN READY TO SNAP FOR QUITE SOME TIME. THE SMALLER SIDE HASN'T SNAPPED YET BUT I AM SURE IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 GMC YUKON DENALI. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED THE SAME FAILURE MENTIONED IN RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 05V379000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 146,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT EXPERIENCED FAILURES RELATED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 05V379000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 5-10 MPH WHILE INITITATING A TURN, THE BRAKES FAILED TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 149,000.

APPLIED PRESSURE TO BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WENT TO THE FLOOR. TOOK THE CAR TO A MIDAS MUFFLER GARAGE AS IT WAS CLOSEST FOR DIAGNOSIS AND FOUND THAT THE BRAKE LINE HAD RUSTED AWAY. IT HAD RUSTED OUT AT THE POINT WHERE IT GOES OVER THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE SEEN THIS MANY TIMES ON THESE CARS. *TR

AFTER GETTING CUT OFF AND HAVING TO MAKE A PANIC STOP THE BRAKE LINES IN MY TRUCK BURST CAUSING THE PEDAL TO GO TO THE GROUND AND OFFER NO BRAKING POWER. I THEN TRIED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WHICH ALSO DIDN'T WORK DUE TO THE BURST LINES. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO STEER INTO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND PUT THE TRANSMISSION INTO A LOWER GEAR TO SLOW DOWN BEFORE PUTTING IT INTO PARK AT 25 MPH AND SKIDDING TO A STOP. AFTER GETTING HOME AND DOING RESEARCH AND LEARNED OF YOUR INVESTIGATION. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE AS I ALMOST DIED. *TR

BRAKES FAILED TO STOP PROPERLY, SURGING/INTERMITTENT PULSING AND STRANGE SOUNDS. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A NORMAL FUNCTION FOR ABS BRAKES. I TOLERATED AND DROVE CAREFULLY FOR YEARS. NOW I FIND THIS IS A SYMPTOM OF A GMC RECALL PROBLEM 05V-379. UPON CONTACTING GMC THEY SAY THEIR COMPUTERS NEED UPDATING AND IT "MAY" BE IN FOR RECALL BUT THE GMC DOES NOT HAVE THE CORRECT PARTS NOW. SOUNDS LIKE A MAJOR PROBLEM. I AM WORRIED ABOUT TOTAL FAILURE AND AM REGISTERING A COMPLAINT. THEY SAID THAT I COULD GET IT FIXED NOW AND THEN THEY "MAY" REIMBURSE ME LATER. I CALLED THE GMC NUMBER ON THEIR RECALL SITE, THE SITE SAID MY NUMBER "MAY" QUALIFY FOR RECALL. I AM CONFUSED AND FRUSTRATED NOW THAT I KNOW THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM FOR OTHER GMC PRODUCTS AND CAN'T GET FIXED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING NORTH ON 85 AT 70 MILES AN HOUR AND MY VEHICLE DECIDED TO DROP DOWN TO 20. I HAVE LOOKED UP INFORMATION ON ISSUES THIS TRUCK HAS HAD AND 1 OF THEM IS REGISTERED UNDER NHTSA ID # 100032435 / PIP-4695.GM: LOSS OF POWER HESITATES ON ACCELERATION. 4.3, 4.8, 5.3, 5.7 AND 6.0 ENGINES COUPLED WITH THE 4L60E OR 4L65E MAY EXPERIENCE A CONDITION OF HESITATES, MISSES OR LOSS OF POWER UNDER ACCELERATION. THE VEHICLE MAY OPERATE AS IF IT IS IN REDUCED POWER MODE. *PE I HAVE PURCHASED AN AIR MASS FLOW SENSOR, THROTTLE BODY SENSOR, ALL 4 O2 SENSORS, AND A COOLANT SENSOR. MY TRUCK IS STILL NOT RUNNING AT FULL CAPACITY. I NEED SOME INFORMATION ON THIS AND SOME HELP FIXING MY VEHICLE. *TR

COMING TO A STOP AND BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR....MY VEHICLE THEN ROLLED INTO INTERSECTION CAUSING AN ACCIDENT WHEN THE OTHER VEHICLE COLLIDED WITH THE FRONT OF MY VEHICLE. FURTHER INVESTIGATION FOUND BRAKE LINE BURST. TO REMEDY SITUATION I REPLACED ALL BRAKE LINES. *TR

VEHICLE WAS SHIPPED WITH HEADS THAT WOULD CRACK OVER TIME. THE CAR HAS BEEN LEAKING COOLANT FOR OVER A YEAR AND CAUSED MAJOR ENGINE FAILURE. THIS IS HAPPENING TO MANY HUNDREDS OF THOUSAND VEHICLES AND SHOULD BE A RECALL/COMPENSATION FROM GM. *JS

MULTIPLE BRAKE LINE RUPTURE/ FAILURE ON DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. *TR

BROUGHT YUKON IN TO KOONS GMC IN MANASSAS, VIRGINIA IN 2012 FOR TWO RECALLS WHICH I WAS TOLD WERE BOTH DONE ALONG WITH GETTING AN ESTIMATE FOR $3300 FOR LARGELY AN INTAKE MANIFOLD. I HAVE CALLED GM CORP AND BEEN TOLD MANY TIMES OVER THAT PAST TWO YEARS AS MORE CARS HAVE BEEN ADDED TO RECALL LISTS THAT THERE WERE NO REMAINING RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE; NOW GM CORPORATE SAYS THE WHEEL SENSOR RECALL (NECESSARY TO AVOID LOW SPEED CRASHES) WAS ACTUALLY NEVER PERFORMED AND GM CORPORATE CANNOT EXPLAIN WHY I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY BOTH DEALERSHIPS IN THE DC AREA AND GM CORPORATE OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS (EXCEEDING 10 TOTAL CALLS) SINCE THAT THERE WERE NO REMAINING RECALLS LEFT TO PERFORM ON THIS YUKON. PRESUMABLY THE HEADREST RECALL I BROUGHT IT INTO KOONS IN MANASSAS, VA AS A SECOND AFTERTHOUGHT TO THE WHEEL SENSOR RECALL WAS THE ONLY THING THEY ENDED UP DOING OTHER THAN GIVING ME AN ESTIMATE FOR OVER $3300 FOR WORK THAT HAS NEVER NEEDED TO BE DONE. MY UNANSWERED QUESTION TO GM CORPORATE WAS "I'S THIS HOW YOUR GOING TO HANDLE THE IGNITION RECALLS?" ADDITIONALLY, GM CLAIMS TO BE UNABLE TO ANSWER THE QUESTION OF WHETHER MY IGNITION SWITCH IS THE SAME IN DESIGN AS ANY OF THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED. DO AMERICANS CITIZENS NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO AT LEAST THAT MUCH "PROPRIETARY"-PROTECTED INFORMATION FROM GM? GM CORPORATE'S SPECIALIST CLAIMED TO OBJECT TO MY MENTIONING THAT I, TOO, MIGHT RECORD THE CALL. KOONS ALSO NEVER NOTICED THAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD BROKEN OUT THE ABS LIGHT BECAUSE PRIOR TO THE RECALL (WHICH SHOULD HAVE LATER TIPPED ME OFF THAT THEY DID NOT ACTUALLY CLEAN THE WHEEL SENSOR AND CHECK THE ABS LIGHT SINCE IT WAS NOT ON THE $3300 ESTIMATE OF NECESSARY REPAIRS), BECAUSE NOBODY REALLY KNEW THEN WHY THE ABS LIGHT WOULD STAY ON. I BELIEVE THIS WAS A RETALIATORY ACT. I MENTIONED TO KOONS SND GM CORPORATE BEFORE SERVICE THAT I WAS DISABLED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AROUND TOWN WHEN THE BRAKES FELT A LITTLE SOFT. THE NEXT MORNING THERE WAS A PUDDLE OF BRAKE FLUID UNDER THE VEHICLE. I PUT IN A HALF A BOTTLE OF BRAKE FLUID INTO THE RESERVOIR. I DROVE TO THE HOUSE AND PARKED IT. SEVERAL MINUTES AFTER PARKING THERE WAS THE BEGINNING OF A PUDDLE OF BRAKE FLUID. I MADE SEVERAL OTHER STOPS AND AT EACH STOP BRAKE FLUID WAS BEGINNING TO LEAK WHEN VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF. TOOK VEHICLE TO SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE BRAKE LINES ALL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED TO ENGAGE WHEN DEPRESSED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL ABNORMALLY TRAVELED TO THE FLOOR BOARD. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE ABS SYSTEM ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY . THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE BRAKE LINE WAS CORRODED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 157,500. UPDATED 02/24/14*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE RECALLS WERE NEVER DONE. THE RECALLS WERE FALSELY REPORTED AS BEING COMPLETE. THE FRONT BEARING ASSEMBLIES HAD TO BE REPLACED, AT THE CONSUMERS EXPENSE.
