When opening the hatch or back of the vehicle, the lights will go on and off and the vehicle will not start up. You have to wait for 5 minutes sometimes longer for the engine to restart. The vehicle will be in stationary, I have to turn the vehicle off if I am going to open the back if I don't it messes up all the gages in front and will not operate.

What 2007 GMC Yukon owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Happened two times yesterday. 2007 yukon denali odometer: 191,707 engine hours: 1443.9 first, stabilitrak control turned off and engine power was reduced illuminated on the message center of the dash board. Car would not accelerate above 20 MPH. When I would try to push the gas petal there would be a shutter in the rear of the vehicle. I was able to put the car in park, turn it off and tried restarting. Same issues continued. I limped to my work a less than a mile away to try and figure out what was happening as I had myself and 4 kids in the car after trick or treating. I shut off the car and waited for a bit while I read online what was causing this. Upon restarting the car, it started working again as normal. Safety risk when you can't accelerate past 20 MPH on a 45 mile per hour road. Second occurance was a few hours later. I turned the car on to leave and the same things happened, this time it was driving like I had lost my power steering and no engine power. Luckily, again, I was in a spot to pull off to the side, turn the car off and made it home okay. This car has a brand new engine. Upon reading here and some other things online it seems the stabilitrak has numberous reports of this same thing. Luckily I have been in a spot where it didn't become dangerous and I knew what to do based on reading here. I use my yukon for work so can't have this happening and it's dangerous for myself, my kids and other drivers on the road if they happen to be behind me when it happens. Hopefully with enough complaints something can be done to fix this issue. I have included a pic of the symbol that illuminated on my dashboard when this happened.
Warning bells start chiming, 5.3 engine with afm starts running rough, service traction control, service suspension system,ABS lights come on. These symtoms occur within seconds of starting. Diagnostics says different things each time such as misfires, worn cam, etc. The engine only has 140k miles. There are numerous complaints on this engine. Gm did offer numerous customers replacement engines under 150k miles. I can't get the dealer to own up to this.
I brought this SUV in nov 2017 and went to chicago to see my mom and kids and the stabilitrak control kick and made the truck not go pass 30 MPH making the trans kick in I went to the dealer and they said it the pressure swtch and the truck only have 140.000
Takata recall. Recall issued in 2016 but as of 12/04/2017 there is still not a solution. I have an airbag indicator light currently on and am afraid that airbag will not inflate when needed or might inflate when not needed. Also, in unrelated issue the entire display on the dash has stopped working as well. I have searched web and I do see indications that there are active recalls for electrical however my dealer says there are not any electrical recalls for my vehicle.
(takata recall) since I purchase the gmc yukon I have experience a numerous engine-elec stability control-airbags-every two weeks. I need to add engine oil is a safety risk.
Stabilitrack and traction control off. Warning light comes on when braking or moderate steering change. There are numerous complaints online of the same type of problem. Owners just spent $7000.00 in repairs that did not fix the problem. Gm refuses to acknowledge the problem.
The tail gate came down and almost clinch down on my head the tail gate is malfunctioning
My stabitity trac control lot popped on, check engine light, tire pressure light and now my low oil pressure light popped on saying stop engine.
The brakes on my07 yukon work intermittently. When driving the truck first thing in the morning at speeds of 15mph to 20 MPH brakes fail to engage and have had several close calls.
