CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND FLASHING, STABILITRACK LIGHT COMES ON, VEHICLE IDLES ROUGH AND EVENTUALLY STALLED OUT. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE IN MY 2017 GMC YUKON. ONCE AT ~53K MILES, AGAIN AT ~64K MILES. ONE TIME IT STALLED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH MY KIDS IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME LATE AT NIGHT ON VACATION AND HAD TO BE TOWED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND WE HAD TO STAY IN A HOTEL OUT OF TOWN UNEXPECTEDLY. THE 2ND TIME HAPPENED CLOSER TO HOME BUT HAD TO PAY FOR A RENTAL CAR SINCE THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE AND THE DEALERSHIP NO LONGER DOES LOANERS. THE VEHICLE RUNS ROUGH WHILE DRIVING, LOSES POWER, AND SEEMS TO LOSE CONTROL. IT IS VERY SCARY WHEN IT HAPPENS. HAPPENED IN OCT 2019 AND AGAIN JULY 2020. IT IS THE SAME ISSUE AS DESCRIBED IN N182198000 SPECIAL COVERAGE MEMO (DCS5097) FROM JULY 26, 2019 BUT ISN'T COVERED IN MY STATE YET APPARENTLY.

IN THE LAST YEAR, BOTH OF THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS HAVE FAILED IN MY 2017 GMC YUKON. TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP REPLACE THE TAIL LIGHTS IT COST +$750 PER TAIL LIGHT FOR A CAR THAT IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD. I WORK WITH LED LIGHTING AND ON AVERAGE, LED LIGHTS SHOULD LAST FOR 5000 HOURS OF USE. THERE IS NO WAY THAT IN THE LAST 3 YEARS WE HAVE UTILIZED 5000 HOURS OF DRIVE TIME TO WARRANT THAT THESE LED'S SHOULD BE BURNING OUT. I BELIEVE THAT THE LED'S THAT THEY ARE USING ARE DEFECTIVE AND A CASE NEEDS TO BE MADE TO SEE IF GMC IS HAVING ISSUES WITH THE REAR TAIL LIGHT LED'S, THE PARTS ARE WAY TOO EXPENSIVE TO BE FAILING AFTER A FEW YEARS OF INTERMITTENT USE. *TR

VEHICLE HAS A ROUGH IDLE AT COLD START. ALSO MISFIRES AT STOPLIGHTS AND RANDOM TIMES. VEHICLE STALLED ONCE THIS MORNING COMPLETELY. TOLD BY MY GMC DEALERSHIP THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE ALL FUEL INJECTORS FOR OVER $2,000. I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN MARCH. THE FUEL INJECTORS ARE ON BACK-ORDER CURRENTLY SO I AM UNABLE TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. I WAS TOLD ANOTHER VEHICLE LIKE MINE AT THAT SERVICE CENTER HAS BEEN WAITING ALREADY FOR 6 WEEKS FOR FUEL INJECTORS AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT AT LEAST ANOTHER MONTH. THIS MEANS I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO REGISTER MY VEHICLE WITH MY STATE AS IT WILL NOT PASS SMOG INSPECTION WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO REGISTER IT DUE TO THE DMV CLOSURE FROM COVID-19. ITS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT CAN STALL AT ANY MOMENT AND IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX WITHOUT WAITING FOR PARTS. THESE PARTS ARE OBVIOUSLY ON BACK-ORDER SO LONG BECAUSE THIS IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM. I FOUND A SERVICE BULLETIN FROM NHTSA ( DCS5097 ) WHICH COVERS MY PROBLEM EXACTLY. BUT FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON, SPECIAL COVERAGE ONLY APPLIES TO 13 STATES. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MUCH MORE WIDESPREAD PROBLEM THAN THOUGHT AND I BELIEVE MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF THOSE AROUND ME IS AT RISK IF I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE AND THOSE LIKE MINE SHOULD BE COVERED BY SPECIAL COVERAGE AS WELL. AND AT THE VERY LEAST THE PARTS TO FIX THIS SHOULD BE AVAILABLE GIVEN THAT ITS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE NOW FOR WELL OVER A YEAR. THESE PARTS HAVE BEEN BACK-ORDERED WAY BEFORE COVID-19 EVEN HIT, SO IT CANNOT BE ATTRIBUTED TO THAT. GM HAS AN OBLIGATION TO KEEP THEIR VEHICLES ON THE ROAD SAFE AND MAINTAINED TO THE BEST OF THEIR ABILITY AND WHEN IT COMES TO THIS ISSUE THEY ARE FAILING TO DO SO. *TR

19V761000 · Electronic Stability Control (esc); Service Brakes; Service Brakes, Hydraulic:antilock/traction Control/electronic Limited Slip:wheel Speed Sensor/tone Ring

Oct 24, 2019

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2015-2020 Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Yukon, and 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles equipped with a 5.3-liter engine, a 3.08-ratio rear axle and four-wheel drive. If a wheel-speed sensor fails, while the vehicle is traveling between 41 and 60 mph in four-wheel or automatic mode, the Electronic-Brake Control Module (EBCM) software may activate the driveline-protection system.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: Unintended activation of the driveline-protection system will cause unintended braking on the wheel on the opposite side of the failed sensor, causing the vehicle to pull to one side unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the EBCM, free of charge. The recall began December 11, 2019. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-630-2438 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is N192261050.

Sep 6, 2019

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Cadillac Escalade, 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra, 2015-2018 Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Yukon vehicles. The amount of vacuum created by the vacuum pump may decrease over time.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: As the vacuum level drops, the brake assist decreases, increasing braking effort, extending the distance required to stop the vehicle, thereby increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the Electronic Brake Control Module, free of charge. The recall began October 8, 2019. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-630-2438, Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is N192268490.

During this test, deployment of the frontal air bags and the seat belt pretensioners would not occur in the event of a crash.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: A failure of the front air bags or seat belt pretensioners to deploy in the event of a crash necessitating deployment increases the risk of injury to the driver and front passenger.

Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will reflash the SDM software. Vehicles that have had a previous air bag deployment will have the SDM replaced. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on October 13, 2016.
