I HAVE A 2011 YUKON HYBRID 2WD. ON AUGUST 234D, 2014 MY (XXX) YEAR OLD SON AND I WERE RUNNING ERRANDS WHILE EN ROUTE TO HIS BIRTHDAY PARTY. AT OUR FIRST DESTINATION HE NOTICED SOME FLUID LEAKING FROM UNDER THE YUKON AND SAID HE HEARD A HISSING SOUND. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST CONDENSATION AND CONTINUED ON. WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE AT OUR SECOND DESTINATION I NOTICED A LOT OF FLUID TRAILING WHERE I HAD JUST DRIVEN THE YUKON. UPON EXITING THE PARKING LOT THE BRAKES TURNED TO MUSH (THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESISTANCE) AND I HAD NO BRAKING CAPABILITIES. I PULLED OFF INTO A PARKING SPACE AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK. WHEN IT WAS TAKEN TO GMC ,THE MECHANIC FOUND THE BRAKE LINE TO BE BROKEN AND WE HAD TO COVER THE FULL COST FOR THE REPAIR. ON MAY 29TH 2015 A SIMILAR INCIDENT OCCURRED. I WAS DRIVING THE YUKON TO DROP MY CHILDREN OFF AT SCHOOL AND UPON APPROACHING THE DROP-OFF ZONE I PUSHED ON THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN AND I LOST ALL BRAKING CAPABILITIES AS THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESISTANCE. THE STABILITRACK MAINTENANCE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER. IN BOTH INCIDENTS, THERE WAS NO WARNING. I NO LONGER WANT TO BE AN OWNER OF A GMC YUKON AS I FEAR FOR THE LIVES OF MY CHILDREN WHEN THEY ARE IN THE VEHICLE.PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

DP22005 · Pedestrian Alert Sounds

Opened Jan 27, 2023 · Closed Aug 7, 2023

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Electrical System:propulsion System

NHTSA received a petition on or about July 18, 2022, requesting that Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 141 be applied to all electric and hybrid vehicles operating in the United States. The petition can be reviewed at NHTSA.gov under ODI Number 11486072. FMVSS 141 establishes performance requirements for pedestrian alert sounds for motor vehicles. The standard applies to hybrid and electric vehicles that have a gross vehicle weight rating of 4,536 KG or less or are defined as low-speed vehicles. The standard became fully applicable to all such vehicles manufactured on or after March 1, 2021.On January 27, 2023, NHTSA opened Defect Petition (DP) 22-005 to evaluate the subject matter described in the petition. On June 24, 2023 and as supplemented on June 25, 2023, the petitioner notified NHTSA he was withdrawing his petition. The petitioner indicated that, based on his review of data, there is no justification for asserting potential benefits that could be derived from actions sought by my petition. Based on the petitioner's withdrawal, DP22-005 is closed. Closure of this DP does not represent a determination by NHTSA regarding the subject matter of the petition.
