Steering wheel will not lock when in park and the vehicle is turned off. This is referring to the Steering/Shifter Recall (13V-001).

Odometer Fraud. The contact owned a 2013 GMC Yukon. The contact sold a vehicle to an independent company, Pedal.com; however, was advised that the vehicle was sold to an individual and the odometer appeared to be altered. The contact stated that another individual discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy after the purchase. The vehicle was an independent dealer sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 119,000. It was later discovered that the mileage was 273,000.

Vehicle equipped with 6.2l v8 engine. Have been experiencing hesitation upon acceleration, decrease in power/reduced performance, trouble starting, abnormal shifting (particularly from 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th gear) for about two months. On two separate occassions(once about 1yr ago and the second time about a week ago) during normal use of the vehicle, the car started to shudder and the CEL began flashing. Both times I immediately pulled over and shut off the vehicle. Fluids were good, car has never overheated, regular maintenance has been performed as well. When I turned the car back on, the light was off and didn't show any signs that there was an issue. Two days ago during normal use of the car at about 35mph, a loud knocking/ticking sound started. I was about 1/8 mile from my destination so I attempted to make it there. Driveway is uphill and when I accelerated to get up the hill the sound got much louder and ticking was twice as fast. Shut off the car, let it cool, and knocking sound was just as bad the next time I started the car. Had the car towed to prevent damaging the vehicle further. This car is financed and i have three payments left on the 54 month contract. Today i reached out to the dealer about the issue and asked if I should bring my car to their service dept. I explained how i have been experiencing most of the issues that GM has identified as warning signs that indicate a potential engine failure and I was told theres no way my car has a recalled engine and the guy laughed at me when I tried to give him the information I found on the NHTSA website. Not really sure who I'm supposed to call to get some help with this issue.

The contact owns a 2013 GMC Yukon XL. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V053000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The dealer informed the contact that should the dashboard get cracked, replacing the dashboard would be at his expense. The contact called another local dealer, Cannon Motors LLC (100 N Thacker Lp., Oxford, MS 38655), who informed the contact about the dashboard possibly being cracked and the associated fees. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 156,000. Parts distribution disconnect.

The issue is that we have to sign off on liability for the dealer to install the new safety airbag to state that we are accepting a cracked dashboard. This is ridiculous and the manufacturer (GMC) should have to replace the dashbboard along with the air bag.

TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT INDICATE STABILITRAC NEEDS SERVICE AND IS NOT ON. OBD CODE READS BAD STEERING SENSOR. ACCORDING TO OTHER GM OWNERS ONLINE THIS IS A CONSTANT PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. MANY SHOW THE REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS ON LINE. THE WARNING LIGHT HAS BEEN OFF AND ON FOR SOME TIME WHEN CAR IS COOL ITS OFF WHEN IT SETS IN THE SUN IT GOES ON. I HAVE CONTACTED THE TOPEKA KS GM DEALER TWICE THIS WEEK TO GET THE COST TO REPLACE THIS SENSOR AND AM TOLD THEY WILL CALL ME BACK BUT NO ONE HAS.

UNKNOWN. Truck would not move out of gear as the gear shift was just moving up and down and not catching any gears

Stopped at a light and went to pull off when the light turned green and the car would not move at the speed of gas I was giving it coasted into the Intersection. I had to turn the car off in the middle of an intersection, restart it and shift back into drive as I got down the road it did the same thing I’ll be in drive and go to apply gas and seems as though the transmission slips causing unsafe driving.

The truck locks start locking and unlocking on their own, the stabilitrac and traction control will cycle between on and off, the motor will shut off, it goes to limp mode, check engine light comes on, traction control light comes on, abs light comes on, it has stalled in drive throughs on the interstate, driving around town, the vehicle is at pat clemons gmc in boone iowa, they replaced the bcm and it is still happening, there is an nhsta campaign #14V61400 for a chassis control module recall, this vehicle vin is not in that, but it does exhibit all the symptoms mentioned in the recall, very much a safety issue as it can happen anytime, especially when it is raining or snowing, started about a year ago

The contact owns a 2013 GMC Yukon Denali XL. The contact stated that while at a stop light, the vehicle suddenly started fluctuating while idling. The A/C was activated and the contact noticed that the vehicle was not being cooled inside the cabin. The contact stated that the failure recurred the following day. The contact stated that while attempting to make a right turn, the vehicle lost power steering functionality. The contact turned off the vehicle and shifted into park(P). The contact restarted the vehicle and the A/C unit independently turned off. Additionally, the vehicle regained power steering functionality and the vehicle idled as designed. The contact had not taken the vehicle to the dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 138,000.

Monday 5th 2022, (2pm)I was driving with the AC on high as I had just left the mall. The interior was hot. As I left the mall and came to a stop light...the car would rev at stop, and continue to do so until the light changed. I had the oil and transmission fluid changed at 135000. It is currently at 138000. I turned off the AC because it did not seem to work (to cool the car down) and rolled the windows down and open the sun roof. Tuesday 6th, I was leaving the store (4pm) and again I turned the AC on and approached a stop light. When I stopped at the light, the car started revving or idling in pulses again as it did on Monday, however as I went to turn right onto the street, there was no power steering at all. Startled, I pressed the brake, shifted into park, turned the SUV off. Then restarted the SUV and the steering had returned to normal. I kept the AC off and drove home.

Was told by my local dealer that they did not have to complete to recall unless I signed a document holding them blameless if they cracked my dashboard or cracked it worst than it already is. I declined to sign until I could investigate why I absolutely had to sign a document absolving GM of their bad design. I believe it to be unjust and insulting that we are required to choose between the safety of our vehicles vs the possible destruction of the interior due to GM's poor design. I did not get a picture of the document before I left the dealer but was told I could bring it back later if I wanted it fixed but I would have to sign the document.

I received a safety recall notice for my vehicle and scheduled an appointment for repair, #N212328790. Upon arriving, the dealer advised me there was a very small crack in the dash and if the dash cracked during the removal or installation, GM would NOT reimburse for any damage to the dash. The default was with the manufacturer and if they didn't replace it correctly, I'd be out serious money to replace and maintain the value of the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2013 GMC Yukon equipped with Continental tires, Tire line: General Grabber A/TX, Tire Size: 265/70/R17, DOT Number: A3AHHMWW.

When driving my steering wheel jerks causing vehicle to veer, stabilitrak snd traction lights flash, lights flicker all the while driving. Vehicle nearly lost control while doing so. Auto shop cannot duplicate the issue nor any codes pop up . Very dangerous for a family while we are driving and saw many complain about this issue.

There is an issue with the radio head unit that causes a high pitched noise, even when the radio is off. It happens with anything connected to the radio, like the indicator, seatbelt warning, door ajar warning. The high pitch noise causes migraines and nausea in drivers and passengers. Issue has been ongoing for months. All 3 radio heads installed by dealer have emitted this sound. Dealer refuses to send in 3rd new unit. Relief from sound only happens when the fuse for the radio head unit is pulled. Attaching a picture of the sound frequency after opening the door, car not on.

The contact’s son owned a 2013 GMC Yukon XL. The contact stated while her son was driving 25 MPH on an icy roadway while slowing down to change lanes he lost control of the vehicle after hitting a patch of ice. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle went off the road ran through a residential fence, then collided with a parked vehicle with the rear end, ricocheted off that vehicle, then slid and collided with a tree on the driver’s side door. The contact stated that the air bags failed to deploy. A police report was filed. The contact stated her son was not injured. The vehicle was drivable and driven back to the contact's residence. Later the vehicle was towed to a local dealer where an insurance adjuster declared the vehicle a total loss. The contact stated that she had received a notification for NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V054000 (Air Bags). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 174,000.

Vehicle is kept inside in a garage in Pennsylvania with 53000 original miles. While driving the vehicle a heard a sound that sounded like plastic cracking, low and behold I watched a crack form beginning at the split between the upper dash panel and the larger dash and it continued over the instrument cluster. I also noticed another smaller crack in the panel surrounding the air bag, of which as also been recalled but no solution as of today. Upon researching further I find I am not alone, this is an obvious defect in either part material or assembly and should be covered by a recall. Dealer replacement for this will run around 1,000 dollars. I am worried that if I am involved in an accident not only do I have to worry about pieces of metal being propelled into a passenger now I also have to worry about plastic from a defective dash. Thank you for you attention to this matter.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2013 GMC Yukon. The contact received a recall notice for NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V054000 (Air Bags) however, upon contacting the dealer, he was informed that since his dashboard was cracked, the recall could not be performed free of charge. The contact was provided an estimate for the dashboard repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact stated that the manufacturer should have covered the cost of the dashboard due to the recall. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

The dashboard is cracking on both sides with one crack leading to the air bag. This creates a hazard as it could impact airbag or pieces of dash could cause injury as they are sharp. Dealers will not replace although it appears to be known issue

The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

In my 2013 Yukon Denali XL the dash has cracked. It is very common for these to crack over time and I think they should fix it. Also the seat on the driver side is torn.

DASHBOARD HAD 1 CRACK KNOWN PRIOR TO TAKATA RECALL, WHEN PICKED UP SEVERAL NEW CRACKS NOW EXIST. DEALER DENIED ANY WRONGDOING AND SUGGESTED I PURCHASE A COVER TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. GMC SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF QUALITY CONTROL FOR DASHBOARD AS WELL AS POOR DESIGN/FAULTY DOOR HANDLES THAT BREAK EASILY BUT ENTIRE PANEL PURCHASE IS THE ONLY REMEDY. NO MORE GENERAL MOTOR VEHICLES FOR ME.

CRACKED DASH

MY 2013 GMC YUKON XL HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED TO BE INCLUDED IN THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL. MY VEHICLE IS IN PRIORITY GROUP 9 ZONE A. I ONLY LEARNED ABOUT THE RECALL ON 8 FEBRUARY, 2021 FROM A THIRD-PARTY, CARFAX, NOT THE DEALERSHIP, GM OR CALIFORNIA DMV, WHERE MY VEHICLE IS REGISTERED. THIS IS 2.5 MONTHS AFTER GMS PETITION TO CANCEL THE RECALL WAS DENIED. SECONDLY, THE DEALERSHIP IS STATING IT CANNOT FIX MY VEHICLE AT THIS TIME DUE TO THE LACK OF REPLACEMENT PARTS AND IT CANNOT PROVIDE ME A TIMELINE OF WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. I HAVE REACHED OUT TO GM AS WELL AND THEY CANNOT PROVIDE ANY INFORMATION AND REFER ME BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT PUTTING MY FAMILY'S SAFETY AT RISK BY CONTINUING TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT HAS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY DEFECT DUE TO THE FACT THAT I CANNOT BE PROVIDED A TIMELY FIX TO THE PROBLEM. FURTHERMORE, I AM CONCERNED WITH THE DELAY IN NOTIFICATION AND THE MANNER OF NOTIFICATION. THE CURRENT SITUATION HAS LEFT ME WITH THE ONLY OPTION OF INCURRING THE ADDITIONAL EXPENSE OF SECURING ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION FOR MY FAMILY WHILE I WAIT FOR AN UNDETERMINED AMOUNT OF TIME TO FIX THIS SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE.

THE L94 ENGINE P/N 19418446 WITH THE VARIABLE LIFTERS HAVE A PROBLEM OF FAILING AND CAUSING THEM TO STICK AND DAMAGE THE CAM SHAFT. THIS CAUSES A LOUD TICKING IN THE ENGINE AND CAUSES THE ENGINE TO EITHER BE REBUILT OR REPLACED AT A COST OF 5 TO 8 THOUSAND DOLLARS WITH NO CONSIDERATION FROM GM. THIS SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING A LOT FROM TALKING TO DEALERS AND OTHER MECHANICS. THIS IS A KNOW DEFECT BY GM AS THEY NO LONGER MAKE THIS TYPE OF ENGINE WITH THE VARIABALE LIFTERS. IF THIS IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURING DEFECT GM SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM OR BE RESPONSIBLE FOR COVERING PART OF THE COST TO REPLACE / REBUILD THE ENGINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC YUKON .THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN RATE OF SPEED, A LOUD TICKING NOISE OCCURRED.

THE DASH BOARD IS CRACKED FROM THE DRIVER SIDE ALL THE WAY TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. UPON DOING RESEARCH, THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH THESE MODELS. I'VE CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER CARE AND ADVISED THEM OF THE ISSUE AS WELL AS MY CONCERN THAT THE CRACKED DASH BOARD MAY PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG AND BECOME INOPERABLE DURING AN ACCIDENT.

AT 148000 MILES GOING 35 MPH CYLINDER 4 ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT LIFTER COLLAPSED. I LOOKED THIS UP ON THE INTERNET AND THIS IS SUBJECT OF SEVERAL TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS. THIS IS A DEFECT, THIS ENGINE HAS RECEIVED ALL REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS AT THE DEALERSHIP, NEVER TOWED, AND NEVER OFF ROAD WITH NO MODIFICATIONS. THIS IS ABOUT A $3000 REPAIR JUST FOR THE AFFECTED BANK OF LIFTERS, $4200 TO DO BOTH BANKS OF LIFTERS. THIS IS UNHEARD OF IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE. GM KNOWS THIS IS A FAILURE OF THIS SYSTEM AND HAS DONE NOTHING BUT ISSUE BULLETINS FOR ITS CONSUMERS.

CRACKED DASHBOARD

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE ABOUT 70MPH AND THE CAR STARTED SPUTTERING AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON AND I THOUGHT THE CAR WAS GOING TO STALL AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF ON TO THE SHOULDER AND LOOK UNDER THE HOOD. I THOUGHT IT WAS A BAD SPARKPLUG OR SOMETHING. I HOOKED UP A OBD READER AND GOT CODE P0306. GOT IT TOWED TO FIRESTONE AND THEY DID DIAGNOSTICS. THEY SAID IT WAS A FAILED LIFTER, A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH GM VEHICLES. THE TICKING NOISE THAT IT WAS MAKING WAS FROM THE FAILED LIFTER. I AM HOPING THE CAMSHAFT IS NOT DAMAGED EITHER.

5 CRACKS LOCATED ON THE INTERIOR DASHBOARD. THESE CRACKS VARY IN SIZE BUT ARE LOCATED ACROSS THE LENGTH OF THE DASH. THERE ARE CRACKS COMPROMISING THE SUPPORT STRUCTURE FOR THE SPEAKER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DASH AND ALSO THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. INTERVENTIONS USED TO PREVENT THIS FROM OCCURRING AS RECOMMENDED BY GM ARE: CAR IS GARAGE KEPT AND REFLECTIVE MATERIAL IS USED WHEN PARKED OUTSIDE. THESE RECOMMENDED INTERVENTIONS DO NOT WORK. DUE TO THE VOLUME OF CUSTOMERS WITH THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE OR CONCERN, I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE FURTHER INVESTIGATION AND ACCOUNTABILITY FOR GM TO RESOLVE.

TOP OF DASHBOARD CRACKING IN FRONT OF DRIVERS SEAT. THE CRACK IS TRAVELING TOWARDS THE DRIVER AND AT TIMES YOU CAN SEE IT LIFTING UP ON ONE SIDE OF THE CRACK. I'M AFRAID THAT ONCE IT TOTALLY CRACKS IT WILL CAUSE ISSUES WITH VISIBILITY WHEN DRIVING AND ALSO OBJECTS FROM THE DAMAGED AREA TO FLY INTO YOUR FACE WILL DRIVING. WENT TO RIVERHEAD GMC FOR MY NYS INSPECTION AND WAS TOLD THAT GM WILL NOT OVER IT.

MY YUKON DENALI WAS BACKED INTO WHILE PARKED AT MY WORK PARKING LOT AND WHEN I GOT INTO THE VEHICLE TO DRIVE TO THE REPAIR SHOP I NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED IN THE UPPER LEFT SIDE OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I INFORMED THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER ABOUT THE CRACK AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULD DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. HE INSTRUCTED THAT I TAKE THE VEHICLE TO GMC AND HAVE THEM FILE A CLAIM. I THEN WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT GM WOULD PROBABLY DENY MY CLAIM, WHICH THEY DID. SO NOW IM STUCK WITH A CRACKED DASHBOARD IN MY OTHERWISE PERFECT VEHICLE. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKING, DASH IS VIBRATING.

I call this a "Panic breaking defect" I have experienced this on two different GMC vehicles manufactured 14 years apart. The first was a 1999 GMC suburban with mechanically operated throttle control. The second was my present GMC Yukon XL Denali with electronic throttle control. The defect: The close proximity of the accelerator pedal to the brake pedal makes it possible to have the right foot on both pedals at the same time. This results in high engine RPM and full breaking pressure, however, the anti-lock breaking system releases and re-applies the break pressure repeatedly allowing the vehicle to lunge forward a short distance on each cycle. To remove ones foot from the both pedals so as to apply it to just the break would result in the vehicle, engine being at high RPM, to allow the vehicle to speed forward resulting in a serious collision. True one could use the left foot, if able, on the break and then remove the right foot, allowing the engine to return to idle but on modern automatic transmission equipped cars where the left foot plays essentially no part in driving, such an action is not likely to occur. Also the ignition key could be turned off but with both hands employed to apply maximum pressure on the steering wheel to ensure maximum braking effort, that is not likely to occur either, besides that would result in lack of power steering and vacuum boost to the break system. A proposed solution: In a drive by wire environment it would be simple to send an idle signal to the throttle body every time the break pedal is pressed and this is the condition which occurs in a normal breaking situation. I have related this to the service manager of my local dealer and have also communicated it to General Motors Customer Support even offering to demonstrate the problem but have received no response. After all I am only a lowly customer and it matters not that I am also a retired Engineer!

CRACKS STARTED APPEARING FOR NO REASON. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 24,200 MILES AND HAS BEEN KEPT IN GARAGE.
