General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2026 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Suburban, and Tahoe, and GMC Sierra 1500, Yukon, and Yukon XL vehicles with four-wheel (4WD) or all-wheel drive (AWD), and certain 2015-2020 Suburban, Escalade, Escalade ESV, Yukon, Yukon XL, and Tahoe vehicles. A component missing from the drivetrain transfer case may cause the front and/or rear wheels to lock up without warning to the driver.
Front or rear wheel lockup increases the risk of a crash.
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.
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.

DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH ON ONE OCCASION WENT TO OVERTAKE A VEHICLE BY PASSING AND THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 SECONDS AND THEN IT STARTED RIGHT UP. LOST STEERING, BRAKES, IT WAS LIKE THE CAR HAD BEEN TURNED OFF AND STARTED BACK UP AGAIN. ON ANOTHER OCCASION I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED.
The power steering failed while driving and we had our baby in the car. We had to make quick adjustment to our driving. We made it home bit very difficultly. I believe there is a problem with the control module because I was able to get it working again but almost immediately it faults out again.
VEHICLE HAS A TREMOR IDLE PROBLEM, RESULTING IN IMPROPER MOTOR MOUNTS PER DEALERSHIP MOTOR MOUNTS REPLACED, NOW BOLTS AND SHIMS ADDED PROBLEM NOT RESOLVED
