GMC 2002, YUKON: THE REACTION SUNSHELL BROKEN INSIDE OF TRANSMISSION. ONLY 64,000 MILES. 1) NO EVENT LEADING TO FAILURE: CALLED GMC PETERSON IN GURNEE ILLINOIS, GMC KNOWS OF THIS PROBLEM AND IN FACT CHANGED THE DESIGN OF THE SUNSHELL YET WILL NOT RECOVER MY COST. I NOW LIVE IN MINNESOTA AND GMC HERE IS DOING THE TRANSMISSION FIX. 2) FAILURE AND CONSEQUENCES: COULD BE EXTREMELY SERIOUS IF DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. LOSS OF POWER AND ACCELERATION COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. 3) CORRECT FAILURE: GMC IS DOING NOTHING TO CORRECT THIS FAILURE THAT I KNOW OF. CUSTOMERS ARE BEING TOLD THAT THIS IS A RARE OCCURRENCE. HOWEVER, AFTER TALKING WITH GURNEE PETERSON GMC ILLINOIS AND VALLEY GMC FROM WACONIA MINNESOTA, THIS REPAIR IS NOT UNCOMMON AND IS OCCURRING EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS. I FEEL THIS WARRANTS A CORRECTIVE ACTION. *NM

ON 11/23/04 LEFT FOR VACATION NOTICED THAT FLUID WAS LEAKING ABOUT TWO HOURS INTO OUR TRIP. STOPPED AT DEALERSHIP IN BARSTOW, WHERE WE WERE TOLD TRANSFER CASE WAS HEATING UP AND EXPANDING AND THAT IT HAD TINY CRACKS THAT THE FLUID WAS LEAKING OUT OF. NEEDED A NEW TRANSFER CASE ORDERED ON 11/24 AND AUTHORIZED OVERNIGHT SHIPPING. CALLED FROM 11/29 TO 12/3 WHEN I WAS FINALY TOLD THAT PART WAS ON NATIONWIDE BACKORDER AND WOULD NOT BE SHIPPED. MY CAR WAS NOT READY UNTIL 12/15. I HAVE CONCERNS THAT THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM SINCE THE PART WAS ON BACKORDER AND THAT GMC WILL NOT REIMBURSE PARTS AND LABOR OR RENTAL CAR FEES. I WAS ALSO VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT. CONTACTED THEM AND WAS TOLD WHAT INFO. TO SEND. SENT IT DID NOT HEAR FROM FOR APPROXIMATELY THREE WEEKS THEN WAS TOLD THAT THEY DID NOT RECEIVE ALL INFO. LEFT AT LEAST 15 MESSAGES AND NEVER RECEIVED PHONE CALL BACK CALLED AND ASKED TO SPEAK TO SUPERVISOR AND FIRST WAS TOLD NO THEN FINALLY FOUND A REPRESENTATIVE THAT GAVE ME SUPERVISOR. I RESENT PAPERWORK THAT WAS SUPOSSEDLY MISSING AND WAS TOLD ABOUT A WEEK AND A HALF LATER THAT THEY WOULD GIVE ME CREDIT TOWARD A NEW PURCHASE OR OIL CHANGES FOR THE EQUIVELANT OF 1 YEAR. *AK
