“The wireless charging pad in the vehicle below the climate control system. Yes, it is. The charging component malfunctioned and overheated the back of my phone when it was set in the console while driving. I had no intention of charging my phone, but instead place my phone down while driving. When I picked up my phone at a stop light, I laid it in my inner thigh when the light changed. The burning was so intense and unexpected I swerved into oncoming traffic and lost control, momentarily of the vehicle. …”

“Driving through the intersection of N. Scottsdale Road and E. Bell Road in Scottsdale AZ my collision warning red light flashed on the screen and the engine turned off. This caused me to lose forward propulsion and forced me to navigate to the side of the road to avoid being hit by another car. At Van’s GMC, the service manager told me that we experienced a catastrophic engine failure and that the engine seized. Vehicle has been inspected, but I have not received an official diagnostic even though I have requested. …”

“While driving my vehicle, i noticed no sound coming from infotainment, signaling or lights being able to turn on. After pulling over at the nearest gas station, i parked and turned the vehicle off and waited for 30 minutes. Soon after that time, i turned the vehicle on and sound came back. However, i noticed the fuel management system begin to soon immediately kick in hard and loud while i started to drive away. This caused a major concern because i was with my family and didn’t know if ok we were going to be able to make it to my daughter’s softball tournament and home safely.”

“I'm reaching out because I've encountered a really concerning issue with my 2025 GMC Yukon AT4 Ultimate. There's a really loud popping noise randomly coming from the speakers that's honestly quite startling and dangerous while driving. Most recently, it scared me so much that I swerved off the road and nearly crashed. If you review online forums, you will find that this has been experienced by other owners as well. I've tried to resolve this through your usual service channels, but my concerns have been dismissed without any recommended action to ensure my family's safety. …”

“My vehicle, with only 2,400 miles on the odometer, has been diagnosed as requiring a full engine replacement. While driving on the interstate, a warning message appeared indicating reduced acceleration. I was able to exit the freeway safely, but the vehicle could no longer maintain adequate speed to match traffic flow. Prior to this, the check engine light came on, but no issues were reported in the vehicle’s status system. I contacted OnStar, and they advised me to take the vehicle to a dealership within seven business days. It has since been at the dealership awaiting parts. …”
