“No one will get the parts in to repair my airbags and it's been years. Its as if they want me to get rid of my truck but I don't want to. There's also a recall on something smoking and the year starts at 2007 yet my truck isn't included which is very strange some I just had this happen to me on 2/9 and had to have my truck towed and repaired at american petroleum on quarterfield rd.”

“Every couple days when I start the vehicle the starter seems to keep trying to restart after the car is running I usually just tap it to turn over but it continue to turn itself over on its own causing grind noise. Very unusual. Seems like a malfunction. Not sure how to explain it doesn't happen everyday but it happens enough I need to get make a complaint its not normal.”

“Roughly 30 times since march my 2007 Gmc Yukon xl 5.3 slt has had the dreaded stabilitrack off, service stabilitrack, reduced engine power problem. You can be driving along at various speeds and the error will come on and you will be completely unable to accelerate. Leaving a very dangerous situation for my family. It has happened when pulling a camper and without pulling anything either. Gm refuses to help the many families having the same problems.”

“My wife and I had just purchased a used 2007 Gmc Yukon. Little did we know about the major issue the truck has with the reduced power reading that comes up. I really think that Gmc needs to put out a recall for these issues. My wife was on her way home from a work meeting and driving on the freeway with her sister and my wife's and my daughter in the Gmc Yukon and she was doing the speed limit and all of a sudden she didn't know what was going on. She called me and she was in a panic. …”
