“While driving from ga to la on christmas eve, my Yukon Xl went into reduced engine power and lost traction control and antilock brakes. The car almost instantly dropped from 72mph to 45mph and the check engine and traction control warning lights came on. I was advised by onstar to pull the car over and turn it off for a few minutes. When I started it again, power was restored, but the check engine warning light remained. I was advised that the car would probably do the same thing and that I should have it serviced immediately, on the next business day, which was monday december 27th. …”

NHTSA complaint #11011156, filed 2017-07, 10,000 miles“I work in a dealership and purchased my vehicle used in april 2016. At the time it had small cracks that extended from the dash airbags about 1 or so towards the windshield. The cracks are now quite large. If the airbags were to deploy, the plastic from the dash would also become airborne. This has become a serious safety concern to myself while driving as well as anyone who may sit in the front seat, including my grandchildren. These cracks are now about 1/4 in width and about 3 long and extend from the edge of the airbag and end at the defogger vents under the windshield. …”
