AT 71,200 MILES THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY YUKON XL WENT OUT. I CALLED THE LOCAL GMC DEALER REGARDING ISSUE. I WAS ADVISED THAT IF I HAD SERVICED MY VEHICLE WITH THEM THEY COULD HAVE POSSIBLY MADE AN EXCEPTION. I WAS GIVEN THE 1800# TO CALL. AFTER CALLING THE 1800#, I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD INVESTIGATE THE MATTER. IN TWO WEEKS I WAS NOTIFIED THAT GMC WOULD BE UNABLE TO HELP ME WITH THIS MATTER BECAUSE THEY HAD ALREADY HELPED ME ENOUGH WITH THE SHAFT THAT HAD BEEN LUBRICATED SEVERAL TIMES AT NO COST TO ME. I REMINDED THEM THAT THIS WAS DUE TO THEIR FAULTY EQUIPMENT THAT HAD TAKEN TIME FROM ME TAKING MY VEHICLE EVERY 3 TO 6 MONTHS TO GET OILED. LAST WEEK I TOOK MY YUKON TO GET AN OIL CHANGE AND ASK THAT THEY OIL THE SHAFT AGAIN. I WAS INFORMED THEY NO LONGER DO THIS BECAUSE THEY CAME UP WITH THE PART TO REPLACE IT LAST YEAR 2007. BUT BECAUSE I'M OUT OF WARRANTY THEY CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE UNLESS I PAY. YOU WOULD THINK I WOULD HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED OR IT WOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED WHEN I TOOK IT IN IN NOVEMBER 2007 FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND GET THAT SHAFT LUBRICATED. THAT WAS ANOTHER GMC DEALER. *TR
