| Interior Lighting problems |
On several occasions between 2/05/11 and 3/8/11 while driving at night, with headlamps in auto mode, idling at a full stop, the headlights and dash lighting shut off completely and will not reset in auto mode. Gm repaired by replacing a ambient light sensor on 3/9/11. This did not fix the problem. Problem only occurs while stopped/idling at night (does not occur at normal driving speeds). Headlights/dash lighting work correctly in manual mode.
The control panel on my GMC is freezing, the speedometer is freezing so I cannot tell how fast the car is going. The oil gauge has frozen and the dashboard keeps changing it light intensity from very bright to going dark when I'm driving sometimes occurring on poorly lite streets and parkways.
2005 GMC Yukon xl, dashboard dimmer switch/interior light switch; does not illuminate in the dark. This presents a significant safety issue in that it does not allow the driver to adjust the dashboard lighting level or turn on interior lights in the dark. There have been repeated attempts to remedy the situation by the dealer, the conclusion of the dealer now is that illumination is not allowed by the way the switch was engineered.
