When I'm driving at night the lights flicker this includes every light outside beams inside dash everywhere. It happens when it's in motion or not. This is a safety hazard because the flickering is a distraction to other drivers including yourself. When focusing on road all of a sudden they start flickering and it distracts everyone dramatically. I almost wrecked twice because of this and have told my dealer ship "trinity automotive" and they have yet to fix it.

My 2007 gmc yukon xl; self combusted while parked in my driveway. My wife drove it on an errand, returned to our home, parked and locked the vehicle. Within 20 minutes or so, the vehicle began to smoke eventually the entire engine compartment caught fire. The vehicle was parked, off, key was out and the vehicle was unattended. Luckily, the horn blew which alerted us to the fire. Otherwise, additional property loss or injuries could have been sustained. We have a security camera video evidence (from our neighbors security system) of the entire incident. While I am uncertain as to the exact cause; state farm investigated the vehicle and is giving a settlement check for the estimated value. The truck was equipped with a "washer fluid heater" and there were two recalls by gm because of the risk of fire.

Stab, ABS light and engine lights either going on one at a time or simultaneously. Car wouldn't start & when it did all of the dashboard gauges were at "zero" car seemed off but drive-able--gas, MPH, RPM, gas/oil gauges remained at zero while driving. Later that day when car was restarted-the gauges were at normal readings. Stabiltrack light keeps going on & off. Electrical doesn't work well, almost every power door has failed & actuator has been replaced, rear back hatch door will not open & we have no access to our cargo/trunk area. Keyless entry works occasionally. Interior and exterior chrome handles have sharp edges.

Stabilitrak off light comes on, followed by reduced engine power. Vehicle won't go over 30 MPH then completely shuts down. Steering goes out and had I not been in a safe location where I could drift over to shoulder it could have been extremely dangerous.

My wife's 2007 yukon xl had a message that stated that the traction control was off and a reduction in power message while traveling on the interstate highway going 65 miles an hour during rush hour. When this message came on the yukon came to a very dangerous reduction in speed and was very close to getting rearended by the vehicles behind her. She was able to pull over to the shoulder and was able to restart the engine and the message reset but came back on soon after she got back up to speed and the truck shut down again. I have since replaced the throttle body assembly and checked all ground straps replaced the battery and have checked the harness. The issue has continued and since my vehicle is out of warranty it is getting very expensive to start replacing parts on the vehicle just to have it do the same thing. According to the dealership there are no recalls but there are several forums on line with people all over the united states that have the same problem with there gm products. This is a very serious safety issue that needs to be looked into, before somebody gets hurt or killed. Gm needs to recall their products that are involved and repair them.-

There is a major electrical problem with SUV I bought the denali because that is suppose to be the best but it has been far from it... My nav screen dose not work it has been replaced twice and still dose not work.. My power running boards do not work and the have been replaced as well. My back-up camera dose not work because the monitor is the nave screen. The back up sensors do not work,the power flip down seats do not work and the power tail gate dose not open ... It is extremely upsetting because I bought the denali for $60,000.00 and gmc's promise is we are professional grade and this is not the case here....
