2004 GMC Yukon

DROVE VEHICLE TO MY DESTINATION FOR SHOPPING, NO SIGNS OR WARNING WHAT TO FOLLOW. CAME OUT OF FACILITY, STARTED VEHICLE,BACKED UP VEHICLE,STEPPED ON BRAKE, PEDAL TO FLOOR, SAID THIS CAN'T BE , PULLED A LITTLE FORWARD SAME THING NO BRAKES, GOT OUT OF VEHICLE FOUND RIVER OF BRAKE FLUID. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO MY MECHANIC WHERE HE ALERTED ME THAT ALL BRAKE LINES WERE ROTTED OUT. ALL LINES NOW NEED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $1500.00 WITH NON-CORROSIVE LINES. THIS IS A DISGRACE AND I HAVE CALLED GM TO COMPLAIN WHO SAYS THERE IS NO RECALL. PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE IF THIS IS NOT FIXED. *TR

THE SUBJECT VEHICLE HAD RECENTLY BEEN PARKED AFTER TOWING A 29 FOOT LONG TRAVEL TRAILER. IT HAD SAT FOR APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS SINCE WE LAST USED IT. DURING THE 2011 30 OCTOBER SNOW STORM IN PA, I WENT TO PICK IT UP TO USE IT. I STARTED DOWN THE DRIVEWAY AND WENT TO APPLY THE BRAKES AND THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOOR. ALL OF THE ANTILOCK AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED ON THE DASH. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND BACK IT BACK THE DRIVEWAY AND PARK IT. WE LATER CALLED AAA AND HAD IT TOWED TO A LOCAL CHEVY DEALER. THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AND LET US KNOW THAT THEY HAD FOUND A BRAKE LINE THAT BURST DUE TO CORROSION. THIS BRAKE LINE IS ALMOST DIRECTLY UNDER THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER ASSEMBLY AND IS SOMEWHAT HIDDEN FROM VIEW. IT LIES ATOP THE FRAME IN THIS AREA AND ACCORDING TO THE DEALER HAD CORRODED. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER THEY HAD TO FABRICATE A REPLACEMENT BRAKE LINE AND WERE ABLE TO REPLACE IT. THEY FURTHER INDICATED THEY LOOKED AT THE OTHER BRAKE LINES AND DID NOT SEE ANY FURTHER INDICATION OF CORROSION. I HAVE DRIVEN THE GMC FOR ABOUT TEN MILES SINCE THE REPAIR AND THE BRAKES APPEAR TO BE BACK TO NORMAL. LET ME ADD THIS, I HAVE OWNED 15 DIFFERENT VEHICLES IN MY LIFE AND NOT ONE HAS HAD TO HAVE A STEEL BRAKE LINE REPLACED. THIS IS THE FIRST. JUST LIKE THE OTHER GM OWNERS, WHEN THESE LINES FAIL THE BRAKING ABILITY TO STOP THIS TWO TON VEHICLE IS ALMOST NON-EXISTENT I AM VERY THANKFUL THIS LINE DID NOT FAIL WHILE TOWING THE 29 FOOT TRAVEL TRAILER. *KB

WE HAVE A 2004 GMC YUKON. SINCE WE'VE HAD IT, REDUCED ENGINE POWER HAS BECOME A CONSTANT AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM. MOST RECENTLY, YESTERDAY, MY HUSBAND WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE TO PASS A SLOWER VEHICLE WITH HUGE TIRES ON THE BACK ONLY TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN. IF SOMEONE HAD BEEN BEHIND US, WE WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT, SERIOUSLY INJURED, MAYBE EVEN DEAD WITH SOME OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES WE HAVE HAD ON THE INTERSTATE. TODAY IS AUGUST 23, 2011. WE HAD THIS VEHICLE FIXED ON JULY 28, 2011, PAYING ALMOST $600 FOR IT TO BE TAKEN CARE OF. IT SAYS ON THE TICKET THAT WE TOLD THEM ABOUT IT AND WERE UNDER THE IMPRESSION THIS WOULD TAKE CARE OF IT. THEY REPLACED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSEMBLY, WHICH I BELIEVE INCLUDED THE APP SENSOR, AND CLEANED THE THROTTLE BODY OF EXCESSIVE CARBON BUILD UP. AFTER SPENDING $500-600, I WANT TO KNOW WHY WE ARE STILL HAVING THIS PROBLEM ALONG WITH SO MANY OTHERS I HAVE SEEN COMPLAIN ABOUT IT ONLINE? GMC HAS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED. *TR
