Tl*the contact owns a 2007 gmc yukon xl 1500. The vehicle has had multiple failures. While driving 70 MPH, the vehicle suddenly stalled and shortly afterwards, the power steering and brakes failed. After the first failure, the vehicle was towed to the dealer and they stated that the software in the computer system needed to be updated. After the vehicle was repaired, the failure recurred six months later at the same speed. The vehicle was not towed on this occasion because the contact allowed the vehicle to sit for a couple of minutes. The engine restarted and the contact was able to drive the vehicle to the dealer. They attempted to update the software again; however, the failure recurred less than one week later. The dealer updated the software for the third time, but the failure continues to recur. The dealer has been unable to permanently repair the failure. The failure mileage was 10,000 and current mileage was 28,000.
2007 GMC Yukon XL 1500 engine complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 12 of 12, newest first, as owners wrote them.
My 2007 yukon denali with the new 6.2 litre engine started leaking raw fuel onto my garage floor due to a defective fuel injector after driving 2 miles home from work. I noticed the smell as I exited the truck in my garage. I immediately coasted the truck out of the garage realizing I had an open flame 10 feet away from a gas water heater and a gas furnace. The same day I saw a blurb on the local news of a couple of house fires involving 2007 yukons. I'm convinced this was probably the same scenario but I recognized the danger instead of closing the garage door and going into the house. Please look more into this issue. My profession is firefighting and I know this could have really gotten ugly if I had not noticed it.
