8.1% of complaints about the 2004 GMC Yukon came in the first year, which is unremarkable for a 2004 vehicle — around the middle of the 236 model-years on record. The median complaint arrives at 5.6 yr in service. The most-reported system is electrical system (57 complaints), typically at 4.2 yr or about 70,000 miles.
CERTAIN FEDERAL-MOGUL REPLACEMENT WHEEL HUB ASSEMBLIES WITH THE BRAND NAMES: NATIONAL, CARQUEST P/NOS. 515020, 515021, 515025, 515053, 515054, 515059, AND 515060, SHIPPED BETWEEN JANUARY 23, 2006, AND DECEMBER 20, 2007, SOLD FOR LIGHT DUTY AND MEDIUM DUTY TRUCKS. THE INBOARD RETENTION NUT USED TO MAINTAIN HUB BEARING ASSEMBLY CAN LOOSEN RESULTING IN AN ABS LIGHT INDICATION, NOISE, AND/OR WHEEL SEPARATION.
WHEEL SEPARATION CAN RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
CERTAIN REPLACEMENT FUEL FILTERS, FRAM BRAND NAME P/N G3727, WITH DATE CODES X52911 THROUGH X60801 SEQUENTIALLY OR X600141 AND A MEXICO COUNTRY OR ORIGIN MARKING ON THE FUEL FILTER HOUSING MANUFACTURED FROM OCTOBER 18, 2005, THROUGH MARCH 21, 2006, SOLD FOR USE ON THE VEHICLES LISTED ABOVE AND ON CERTAIN SCHOOL BUSES. (TO SEE THE SCHOOL BUS ENGINE SIZES, CLICK ON "DOCUMENT SEARCH" AND THEN "BUS APPLICATIONS"). THE CONNECTOR ON THE FUEL FILTER WAS NOT MANUFACTURED TO HONEYWELL'S SPECIFICATION. AS A RESULT, THE O-RING MAY NOT SEAT CORRECTLY ON THE FUEL LINE.
THIS CONDITION MAY CAUSE AN INADEQUATE SEAL AT THE CONNECTION, POTENTIALLY LEADING TO A FUEL LEAK. IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE, A FIRE COULD OCCUR.
ON CERTAIN CREW CAB PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE 2ND ROW CENTER OCCUPANT SEAT BELT ROUTING MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO POSITION THE LAP PORTION OF THE SAFETY BELT LOW AROUND THE HIPS OF OCCUPANTS, ESPECIALLY SMALLER OCCUPANTS, SEATED IN THIS POSITION. APPROPRIATE USE OF A CHILD SEAT OR BOOSTER SEAT, AS RECOMMENDED FOR SMALL CHILDREN, DOES IMPROVE THE FIT CONDITION FOR THIS USER GROUP. IN ADDITION TO INSTRUCTIONS ON PROPER INFANT AND YOUNG CHILD RESTRAINT (WITH CHILD SEATS OR BOOSTERS), SPECIAL VERBIAGE FOR RESTRAINING OLDER CHILD IS INCLUDED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. ALSO, THE S
A LAP PORTION OF THE SEAT BELT ROUTING THAT IS NOT LOW AND SNUG ON THE HIPS CAN ALLOW THE LAP BELT TO RIDE UP ON AN OCCUPANT'S ABDOMEN INSTEAD OF FITTING LOW AROUND THEIR HIPBONES, AND THEREFORE, CAN EXPOSE THEM TO MORE RISK OF ABDOMINAL AND INTERNAL ORGAN INJURY.
CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, PICKUP TRUCKS, AND PASSENGER VANS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 135, ?PASSENGER CAR BRAKE SYSTEMS.? SOME OF THESE VEHICLES WERE PRODUCED WITH AN OUT-OF-SPECIFICATION BRAKE HYDRO-BOOST HOUSING RELIEF VALVE BORE.
CONSEQUENTLY, THE VALVE O-RING SEAL MAY FRACTURE. STEERING EFFORTS MAY BE SLIGHTLY INCREASED WHILE BRAKING OR PARKING. UNDER CERTAIN DRIVING CONDITIONS, A FRACTURED SEAL MAY REQUIRE A SLIGHT INCREASE IN THE APPLIED BRAKE PEDAL EFFORT TO ACHIEVE THE SAME VEHICLE DECELERATION RATE AS PRIOR TO THE SEAT FRACTURE.
"STABILITY SYSTEM DISABLED" WAS DISPLAYED PRIOR TO THE BRAKES BEING ENGAGED WITHOUT DRIVER INPUT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND A 'YAW SENSOR' REPLACED. THE PROBLEM RETURNED WITHIN 20 MILES. A SECOND SENSOR WAS REPLACED ALONG WITH REPROGRAMMING. THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. DEALER STATES "GM HAS TOLD US TO DO NOTHING MORE". NO FURTHER EXPLANATION IS OFFERED BY THE DEALER OR GM "CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE". I BELIEVE THAT A VEHICLE THAT ACTIVATES BRAKES ON DRY PAVEMENT WITHOUT THE DRIVER'S FOOT ON THE PEDAL IS DANGEROUS.
MY 2004 GMC YUKON STARTED HAVING SPEEDOMETER TROUBLES A FEW MONTHS AGO. SOMETIMES IT WOULD WORK JUST FINE, BUT SOMETIMES IT WOULD READ 120 MPH WHEN I WAS PARKED, OR SOMETIMES IT WOULD READ 0 MPH WHEN I WAS GOING ABOUT 65 ON THE HIGHWAY. SOME DAYS IT WOULD WORK JUST FINE, OTHER DAYS, IT WAS VERY OFF. IT GOT TO WHERE I COULD NOT RELY ON MY SPEEDOMETER TO TELL HOW FAST I WAS GOING. I HAD TO USE A GPS TO GET MY SPEED. *NM
SPEEDOMETER ON MY 2004 GMC YUKON BECAME VERY ERRATIC, DISPLAYING SPEEDS THAT WERE OBVIOUSLY WAY TOO SLOW OR WAY TO FAST THAN WHAT THE VEHICLE WAS ACTUALLY TRAVELING. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS I CANNOT TELL HOW FAST THE VEHICLE IS GOING. GM SHOULD CONDUCT A RECALL AS THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. *JB
BACKING UP APPLIED BRAKES, PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR, STOPPED LOOKED UNDER VEHICLE SEEN BRAKE FLUID LEAKING FROM BRAKE LINES. TOWED VEHICLE HOME, LOOKING UNDER VEHICLE FUEL LINES AND BRAKE LINES ARE VERY RUSTED FOR VEHICLE WITH ONLY 80,000 MILES. *TR
