2001 GMC Yukon XL Denali Brakes Problems

“While driving my 2001 denali xl my brakes failed and was fortunate that I was not in traffic. Once I crept home I was able to see the under carriage and there were large amount of corrosion on all the equipment. Car is still laid up until I can afford repaired.”

“Coming to a stop sign the brake line blew out on the left rear resulting in the truck not stopping and rolling through a stop sign. Had there been a child on a bike, a person walking or another vehicle coming there would have been an accident. Upon inspection by a mechanic informed me that all my brake lines are rusted out and need to be changed. Im still waiting for a quote but its said to be over $1500! Gm should be accountable and these trucks should be recalled!”

“I have a 2001 Gmc / Yukon Xl Denali which has the same issue as the NHTSA recall campaign 05v379000/ NHTSA action number: pe05020 the brakes are exhibiting this issue. When brought to the dealer, my VIN does not fall into recall. My concerns is that my vehicle cannot bake safely and should be part of this recall.”

“(recall 05v-379) ABS light has been coming on intermittently for about 4 years now. We have taken to numerous mechanics to no avail. Now after looking into recalls, I find that there actually was a solution, but we were never notified because we don't live in the correct area of the country. But we do live close to the affected area. I purchased the car used only 3 years after it was made. This vehicle could have been in the affected area prior to our purchase. We would like to be included in the recall. …”

“We were traveling north up the saw mill parkway from bronx ny. This parkway is two lanes with 3-4 lights depending where you get on, so I had 3 lights going north. At the first light I notice the brakes were week. Second light had the same no pressure brake peddle, and then the third light I had no pressure on the brake peddle couldn't stop at the red light and had seen the cars coming from the left into the intersection so that made me swerve hard to the right and finally came to a stop. The right front brake line blew and fluid was leaking all over. …”
