general problems of the 2011 GMC Yukon

Numerous difficulties have arisen during the process of driving on multiple occasions. The tablet/radio continues to reset, and the traction control sensor light continues to illuminate. I have communicated with the GMC service center on several occasions, and each time, no issues were found. During an oil change at another dealership, no service recommendations were mentioned, yet a list of offset services was listed on mopar. As I continued to drive, I noticed that the speed controls were limiting speeds, necessitating self-serviced accelerated drives. This has been ongoing for some time while driving and has required ongoing fuel adjustments. I have received tune-up services, coolant services, fuel services, wheel balancing, and several alignments, which have recently caused significant inconvenience. Routine maintenance has been performed, and the rpm gauge remains constant during operation. Make a unsafe drive.

Dash is cracking badly on its own. Is cracking also where airbag is held. Pieces can fly as projectiles and cause bodily harm when airbag deploys.

There have been several signal within system to have beyond service diagnostic and this have gone through many GMC service centers every time I have service are no issues to provide every time after there are many continued issues arise. Deactivations are occurring more frequent than before purchase. Constant play with computer system.

I am writing to express my concerns and frustrations regarding the recurring issues with my vehicle despite multiple service appointments at classic GMC arlington. Despite numerous attempts to address these problems, I continue to experience issues with continuity of service and performance fueling system and coolant system problems (twice in six months) stabilizer link light illumination during startup rpm acceleration while slowing down or stopping ticking sound from the engine. Each time I bring my vehicle in for service, I am told that there are no issues with the performance, idle, or spark plugs, despite having recently received a full service tune-up. I suspect that there may be intentional damage or tampering with my vehicle, which is causing these persistent problems. I have not had any prior issues or service lights illuminated before, and there were no incidents reported by the previous owners. I believe there may be fraudulent activity involving the manufacturer and service providers. Schedule a thorough inspection and diagnosis to address these recurring issues.

Cracked dash. Very weak.

We were driving on the freeway and our sunroof unexpectedly exploded. I didn't see any rock or object. It caught us all off guard.

Front dash is cracking by air bag compartment and vents.

R and r shifter cables needed fixed exhaust needed fix brakes needed fixed. Still need air conditioning fixed was told the hoses are all cut this is how the sold us the Yukon. I took it back twice and they would not fix it. I have tried calling and talking to people to see what to do. Could you please help me. We used all our money for down payment at time.

Crack in dashboard at the passenger airbag location.

I, like thousands of other GMC owners have been frustrated to no end, having to deal with a cracked and highly unsafe vehicle dashboard. I own a 2011 GMC Yukon and my dashboard has cracked so bad, that it’s not only aesthetically unappealing but it poses a grave danger to myself and all passengers inside. If I were to be involved in an accident and the airbag deploy, it would send shards of hard sharp plastic through our faces. You can imagine how much pressure would be behind those sharp pieces as they embed into someone’s face. GMC owes it to its consumers to recall these dashboards and make it right. I feel GMC is intentionally and wrecklessly placing my family in danger by blatantly refusing to recall this obvious problem. As an american consumer, can you help me with this please? thank you.

Keep getting traction control and stability issue warnings along with reduced engine power. Idles up and down and rough car was parked haven’t moved.

Dash board is cracking in multiple spots. Have contacted GMC multiple times over the years to get it fixed. GMC will not fix or replace even though I have been having the same problem since 2014-2015. New cracks keep appearing.

One week after purchasing the vehicle I broke down due to an oil pressure sensor. Two weeks after that I broke down (stalled out in the road) due to 2 lifters collapsing and the camshaft being damaged. After replacing all lifters, the camshaft, spark plugs and wires, as well as another oil pressure sensor just in case the other one was bad I still have low oil pressure. This cost $3,000. 00! I left the shop and broke down on my way home with a flashing engine light and the stabilitrak light and message flashing. It shook so hard I thought it would explode in the road and then stalled out! it was towed back to the shop where it continues to sit. Its been there 3 weeks. Its been at the shop longer than I've gotten to drive it. After googling what might be causing the problem it appears this is not uncommon and GMC/Chevrolet is well aware of the faulty engine. Thousands of posts are on different sites complaining how even though they have put their vehicle in the shop and had the repairs done, there is something in the engine that causing the issues again! the manufacturer is well aware they are putting lives at risk repeatedly and causing financial hardships for the consumer but it is obvious they are concerned only about their bottom line and not lives.

On the interstate driving at night had the sunroof explode. Nothing hit the car. Just a very loud explosion and heard glass shatter over the top of vehicle.

Upper dash has split. Making this a safety issue if the air bags deploy. Also, the heated seats on the passenger side do not work.

The dashboard to my Yukon has crashed in two places. At the speedometer housing at right into the passenger air bag cover. It causes the air bag cover to sit up, not rest normally.

I purchased a 2011 GMC Yukon xl in January 2011. In August 2014 (57545 miles), the dash began to split above the steering wheel and near the front passenger's air bag. A local GMC dealer replaced the dash at a deductible charge from me of $150. In April of 2016 (87116 miles) the installed replacement dash has split near the front passenger's airbag. The same dealer has said they will replace the second dash at a 30% discount, costing me $600. It is plain to me that gm is replacing faulty dashes with dashes made from the same faulty material , plus endangering gm owners with possibly malfunctioning airbags.

Vehicle has a cracked dash in three places. One over speed odometer the other right at the air bag passenger another in middle. Vehicle is garage kept all year round.

Transmission defective @60,000 mile mark with initial sensation of getting bumped from behind when coming to a stop that the dealership routinely stated, "OH that's the way they allure". Dashboard disintegrating before my eyes with multiple plastic shards that will become deadly projectiles if ever in accident and who knows how bad it will get if air bags deploy.

Loose dashboard that repeatedly rattles while driving the vehicle.

Manufacturing flaw in the dash in certain model years causing dash to crack in multiple places without any outside influence.

Pressed tailgate button to open and as opening tailgate fell onto child removing a bag from tailgate. Motor for the tailgate attempted to reopen tailgate and tailgate fell again on child. Passerby and parent held tailgate open to remove child. Brought to dealership they were able to recreate and repair. Failed lift pistons. The are no physical indicators, electronic, illuminated or audio warning of this possibly reoccurring. Lift gate has a greater weight then side doors and is gravity fed.
