As of [XXX] , I witnessed a squealing sound coming from the rear end of my 2018 Denali Yukon XL truck. And it's affecting my braking. And it jerked when I changed my gears on my truck . And there are lights on in my dashboard on my truck. The engine light was blinking on and off and the traction control light was blinking on and off also. But the back driver side of the truck was squealing also. Please help me to resolve this situation. In the name of Jesus. Thanks again [XXX] and [XXX] .

I WAS DRIVING MY 2018 YUKON DENALI ON A 3 LANE INTERSTATE WITH GM'S NEW ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL TURNED ON.. ANOTHER DRIVER CUT IN FRONT OF ME FROM THE RIGHT. ADAPTIVE CRUISE SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES ALMOST CAUSING A REAR-END ACCIDENT BY OVERCOMPENSATING. THIS HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE ON A 2000 MILE TRIP IN DIFFERENT TRAFFIC CONDITIONS. IN CONTACTING MY DEALER, THEY CALLED GM AND WERE TOLD IT COULD NOT BE FIXED BECAUSE OF EXTENSIVE SUPPOSED CHANGES TO THE VEHICLE. HOWEVER, OTHER GM VEHICLES HAVE A SHUTOFF THAT WOULD ELIMINATE ADAPTIVE CRUISE AND LET YOU NORMALLY OPERATE CRUISE CONTROL. I WAS THEN TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT I WOULD NEED TO CONTACT GM DIRECTLY. THE CASE NUMBER IS 8-4468390871. IN PURSUING THIS WITH SEVERAL GM REPRESENTATIVES, THEY CLAIM THERE IS NO FIX WITHOUT EXTENSIVE CHANGES IN SOFTWARE, WIRING, AND PROGRAMMING. BUT ALSO REVEALED THEY RECOGNIZED IT IS A PROBLEM AND HAVE PROVIDED A SHUTOFF ON FUTURE GM YUKON DENALI VEHICLES. IRONICALLY, THIS FIX IS ALREADY ON A BUICK ENVISION, ACADIA, AND POSSIBLY A CHEVY EQUINOX. GM'S RESPONSE IS TO SPEND MY MONEY ON A NEW VEHICLE TO FIX THEIR PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 2300 MILES ON IT. I CONSIDER THIS ADAPTIVE CRUISE FEATURE AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN WITH DRIVERS NOT EXPECTING THE RADICAL BRAKING AS WELL AS OTHER DRIVERS NOT EXPECTING IT, THUS POSSIBLY CAUSING CHAIN REACTION CRASHES.

Official recalls

Oct 1, 2020

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2018 Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and Tahoe, GMC Sierra 1500 and Yukon vehicles equipped with either a 5.3L or 6.2L V8 engine. The output of the mechanical vacuum pump can decrease over time, decreasing the amount of vacuum/power brake assist.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: A decrease in brake assist can increase the brake pedal effort and distance required to stop the vehicle, 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 November 11, 2020. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-866-522-9559, Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006 or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-630-2438. GM's number for this recall is N202300860.

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.

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.
