2008 GMC Yukon Hybrid

SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 2 YRS AGO I HAVE COMPLAINED TO DODGE AND GMC ABOUT THE ISSUES INVOLVING THE CAR. IT HAS HESSITATED WHEN PUSHING ON THE GAS AFTER BEING IN A STOP. IT HAS ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN ON A STOP LIGHT GONE ALL THE WAY TO 4. I HAD TO PUT IT ON PARK FOR IT TO STOP.THE CAR HAS COMPLETELY TURNED OFF ON ME SEVERAL TIMES THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON AND THEN AFTER 2-3 DAYS TURNS OFF ALONG WITH THE ROAD HAZZARD LIGHT. WHEN I TAKE IT TO HAVE IT CHECKED THEY FIND NOTHING. I FINALLY GOT TIRED OF IT TOOK IT TO DODGE TO HAVE IT DIAGNOSE PAID $150.1. THEY DID NOT OFFER A LOANER CAR 2. THEY HAD MY CAR FOR ALMOST 2 DAYS JUST FOR A DIAGNOSSIC TEST 3. THEY DID NOT HAVE A HYBRID SPECIALIST THERE NOR DID THEY SENT IT TO ONE. THEY DIDNT FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT JUST SUGGESTED TO DO TRANSMISSION CHANGE, CHANGE THE WIRES TO THE SPARK PLUGS AND CHANGE THE SPARK PLUGS AFTER DOING ALL THAT. THE PROBLEM CONTINUED. I THEN TOOK IT TO GMC PAID ANOTHER $150 FOR THEM TO DO A DIAGNOSIS TEST. THEY ALSO DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT BUT SEEN THAT IT HAD A EXTENDED WARRANTY OF THE THROTTLES AND SAID THAT COULD BE IT. AFTER CHANGING THAT THE PROBLEM STILL CONTINUED. THE ONLY THING THAT THE GUY TOLD ME FROM ME EXPLAINING THE PROBLEMS IS IT COULD BE THE BRAKE SENSER. PAID &170.00. PROBLEM STILL CONTINUED NOTHING HAS CHANGED. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, THE CAR TURNING COMPLETELY OFF ON ME HESSITATING TO DRIVE AND ACCELERATING ON IT'S OWN WHEN ON PARK IS DANGEROUS. I HAVE DONE MORE THAN MY PARK IN TAKING THE CAR TO SEE WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT YET NO ONE CAN FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT THE MACHINE SAYS NOTHING WHEN I WANT THE PROBLEM TO ACURE TO SHOW THEM WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT IT DOES NOT DO IT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. BUT THIS IS DANGEROUS VERY VERY DANGEROUS. I PAID ALOT WITH NO RESULTS TO SHOW FOR IT. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AND HAVE IT CHECKED.

WE BOUGHT THIS YUKON AND THERE IS A AIRBAG RECALL AND I CALLED TO MAKE APPT AT THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY CAN'T FIX IT UNTIL GMC SAID IT'S OK BECAUSE AND TO KEEP DRIVING IT. THIS IS NOT RIGHT I HAVE A YOUNG SON AND FAMILY THAT I DRIVE IT EVERYDAY THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING THE VEHICLE. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE CALL ME OR EMAIL ME WHAT TO DO..

MY TRUCK ACCELERATES AND ABRUPTLY STOPS WHILE SLOWING DOWN UNDER 20 MPH. UNDER 20 MPH THE ENGINE IS SUPPOSE TO SWITCH OVER TO CONNECT TO HYBRID BATTERY SYSTEM. SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY STOPS WHILE TURNING OR SOMETIMES THE CAR CUTS ALL THE WAY OFF. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN 2010 AND I HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM SINCE 2013. OVERTIME I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY WOULD TELL ME THAT THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I RECENTLY HAD MAJOR ENGINE PROBLEMS INVOLVING THE LIFTERS ACCORDING TO THEIR DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE. THE COST WAS 6000 TO REPAIR. AFTER REPAIRING THE LIFTERS THE CAR STILL HAS THE SPONTANEOUS ACCELERATING AND STOPPING ISSUES.WE WERE TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER AT CHEVROLET THAT WE SHOULD "JUST DUMP THE VEHICLE AND THEY HAD A HYBRID IN THE BACK THEY HAD OVER A MONTH AND THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHATS WRONG WITH IT". I PAID OVER 38,000 FOR THIS TRUCK AT THEIR DEALER SHIP. IVE INVESTED THOUSANDS IN REPAIR COSTS. I WON'T SELL IT BECAUSE I KNOW IT HAS SAFETY HAZARDS. I DRIVE WITH CAUTION BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHEN TO EXPECT THE CAR TO ACCELERATE.

WHEN THE TRUCK GOES FROM THE AUTO STOP TO ENGINE POWER THE CLUCH IN THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T ENGAGE FULL SHUTTING THE TRUCK OFF WHEN TRYING TO PULL OUT FROM A STOP. THE TRUCK HAS SHUT OFF SEVERAL TIMES WHEN TRYING TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT WITH MY 5 SMALL CHILDREN ON BOARD. OTHER TIMES IT WILL ONLY PARTIALLY ENGAGED LEAVING YOU WITH ALMOST NO POWER TO PULL OUT IN TRAFFIC. MY TRUCK IS STILL UNDER 100000 MILES BUT OVER THE 5 YEAR WARRANTY PERIOD.

TAKATA RECALL IT HAS BEEN SIX MONTHS SINCE THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED. THIS YUKON HAS BEEN KEPT AND DRIVEN FOR SEVERAL YEARS IN THE HOT/HUMID CONDITIONS INDICATED IN THE RECALL. I DO NOT FEEL IT IS SAFE, OR THAT THE AIRBAGS ARE TRUSTWORTHY AND THE DEALER CANNOT/WILL NOT REPAIR IT AND HAS NO ESTIMATED DATE TO EXPECT A SOLUTION. WE ARE NOW ENTERING WINTER, WHICH IS THE MOST DANGEROUS TIME TO DRIVE WHERE I LIVE. THERE ARE FAR MORE ACCIDENTS, AND IN TURN FAR MORE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE AIRBAGS TO FAIL AND CAUSE INJURIES THAT WOULD NOT OCCUR IF THE RECALL HAD BEEN RESOLVED.

SOMETIMES WHEN I COME TO A STOP MY VEHICLE GOES INTO THE AUTOSTOP MODE, BUT WHEN I GO TO ACCELERATE IT JUST DIES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION WITH THE GAS ENGINE NOT ENGAGING AND THE ELECTRIC MODE NOT MOVING THE VEHICLE THEN IT JERKS REALLY HARD. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON FOR ABOUT A DAY AND THEN GOES OFF ON IT'S OWN. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO MULITPLE GMC DEALERSHIPS NUMEROUS TIMES AND PAIDED OUT FOR REPAIRS THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS TO NOT BE ABLE TO FIND ANY CODES EVEN WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I HAVE BEEN CLOSE TO BEING HIT FROM THE BACK ON AT LEAST 3 OCCASIONS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE INITIALLY MOVES SLOWLY BEFORE JERKING AND STALLING AND ALMOST BROAD SIDED ON MORE THAN 3 OCCASIONS WHEN PULLING OUT OF A STOP SIGN INTO TRAFFIC. I AM AWARE OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING SIMILAR PROBLEMS CAN WE GET HELP BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THE DEALERSHIP ISN'T CONCERNED WITH OUR SAFETY. I HAVE RECENTLY BEEN REFUSED THE OPPORTUNITY THE HAVE A GM REGIONAL REP MEET ME AT A LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO REVIEW THE ISSUE.

SOMETIMES WHEN I COME TO A STOP MY VEHICLE GOES INTO THE AUTOSTOP MODE, BUT WHEN I GO TO ACCELERATE IT DOESN'T COME OUT OF AUTOSTOP AND JERKS REALLY HARD THEN STALLS OUT. ONCE I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTART IT, IT CRANKS RIGHT UP BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON FOR ABOUT A DAY AND THEN GOES OFF ON IT'S OWN. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO GMC DEALERSHIP TWICE AND PAID OUT ABOUT $700 FOR REPAIRS THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS TO NOT BE ABLE TO FIND ANY CODES EVEN WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I HAVE BEEN CLOSE TO BEING HIT FROM THE BACK ON AT LEAST 3 OCCASIONS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE INITIALLY MOVES SLOWLY BEFORE JERKING AND STALLING. PLEASE HELP MYSELF AND OTHERS WITH THIS SIMILAR PROBLEM GET HELP BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THE DEALERSHIP ISN'T CONCERNED WITH OUR SAFETY AS WELL AS OUR CHILDREN.

DRIVING 45 EXITING THE FREEWAY WHEN WARNING ENGINE LIGHT COME SON " ENGINE POWER REDUCED" AND DROPPED THE CAR TO 1MPH ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I WOULD PRESS ON THE GAS PEDAL AND THERE WAS NO POWER IT HAD ME STALLED ON THE OFF RAMP EXIT DURING BUSY MORNING TRAFFIC. AFTER 10 MINUTES OF BEING STALLED AND ATTEMPTING TO GIVE THE GAS PEDAL IT FINALLY MOVED FOR ME TO GET OVER OUT OF THE WAY. THE ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON. VERY DANGEROUS LUCKILY NO ACCIDENT AND I DIDNT HAVE MY KIDS IN THE CAR.
