Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Passenger and both rear seat power windows quite working at the same time. This could possibly be a danger in case of an accident. I have found numerous complaints of this problem on 2000 yukons. Throttle pedal sticks and you have to use excessive pressure to unstick it. This causes you to move forward or backward at a high rate of speed. This is an accident waiting to happen as you start off or are in a busy parking lot. Could cause injury to pedesterian or small child. I have also seen numerous complaints of this problem filed on 2000 yukons. …”

NHTSA complaint #10064193, filed 2004-03, 48,000 miles

“While driving at any speed the vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly accelerated without any warning. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The dealer replaced the accelerator and the cruise cables. Within 10 months after the repair was made the problem recurred while driving. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer. The dealer informed the consumer that the throttle body needed to be replaced.”

NHTSA complaint #10105437, filed 2004-12, 145,000 miles

“Accelerator pedal sticks intermittently. Dealer notified, and informed consumer that problem was not covered under a recall and any repairs would be at consumer's cost. Feel free to provide any further information.”

NHTSA complaint #8001683, filed 2002-01

“Original transmission was slipping and truck going into a neutral while on highway, took to dealer and they kept it 11 days had to replace entire transmission. Now, aprx 6 weeks later truck is again not shifting right, put in reverse from parked position, press accelerator and the truck slams into gear. When in drive from parked position accelerate and it revs and revs and finally slams into drive then intermittently while driving goes in & out of gear. Pretty disgusted for a xmas gift at $45,000.00 never expected this.”
