The ABS traction control on my 2004 yukon denali activates on dry roads and nearly caused a serious accident. While pulling out onto the road, the traction control kicked in and cut power to the truck. I couldn't accelerate and was almost hit by oncoming traffic.
2004 GMC Yukon Denali brakes complaints

2004 gmc yukon denali - traction control message comes on after a stop when you start to go again and it feels like the vehicle does not want to go. The vehicle started doing this about 20k. We have taken it in several times for this issue but could not figure out what it was due to no code in the computer. Finally at 47k we took it in again and made the dealership ride with us and the truck did this, they replaced a sensor but now we are have several other issues that we never had before, the ABS light is coming on, service stability light and the traction control off light come on. I can't believe after all this time they can't figure it out, it is getting very costly having the truck in every few weeks.
Dt*: the contact stated a humming sound was heard coming from the vehicle's steering, which got progressively louder upon acceleration, turning, and braking. The vehicle was taken to a service dealer, who determined that the hydroboost unit was faulty. There was a the federal safety agency recall # 04v045000, regarding the hydraulic service brakes. The vehicle was not included in the recall due to the VIN.
Dt*: the contact stated while attempting to apply brake pressure at 65 MPH the brakes failed resulting in a crash. This occurred on a normal road during normal braking without warning and a police report was filed. The vehicle was taken to the dealership for inspection. They were unable to duplicate the problem and no repairs were made.
During normal driving, brake pedal will sometimes go to the floor when attemping to stop, and vehicle will not slow down at all. After second attempt, brakes start working again. No errors reported by vehicle computer. We have already hit a mailbox trying to avoid a crash, and almost rolled over another time due to not being able to slow down in time. Two gm dealers have found no problems, and we have been told to not bring the vehicle back to them as they say nothing is wrong with it. Problem happens approx. Every 5 weeks, no consistency or events leading up to brake loss.
