| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have three separate complaints: 1) in december 2004 i was driving on the freeway, then suddenly there was a loud crashing sound that came from underneath of the hood of my yukon. it was apparent that something came apart from underneath the hood because when i looked in the rear view mirror, and then pulled over to the shoulder of the freeway; there was nothing visible in any of the freeway lanes which would indicate that i ran over something. whatever came apart, you could hear it being drug from the front, all the way to the rear of the truck. it tore the entire left fender well apart, it cut a whole into my left custom tire, and it caused me to lose control of the vehicle , almost causing me to have an accident. my husband took the truck to the nearest gmc dealer for this problem, and the service person told him that we would be charged for them to look into this matter. my husband was also told that we would have to endure the cost to have the left rear fender well that was damaged from this incident. (2) in march 2005 my yukon's digital reading kept stating service air bag. also, it displayed the picture of a person in the seat with the airbag deployed. i should not be having these problems with a vehicle that is fairly new, that has only 18,007 miles on it. i purchased this vehicle for safety purposes, and now i have to deal with defects that the dealer is not willing repair at no cost to me. (3) the transmission is shifting gears very roughly, and at times when it is placed into reverse or drive it jerks very hard, and other times when proceeding to drive it drags as if it has no power. *ak |
