While driving the vehicle it randomly looses engine function decreasing speed rapidly. The check engine light comes on and it says engine power reduced along with traction-off and stabilitrak- off. There was a safety recall 14V-614 that pertains to the chassis electronic module. I have had multiple shops look at the problem the last being a GMC dealer who replaced the accelerator pedal for the 2nd time but did not fix the issue. This issue began in early 2024 and vehicle has sat in driveway not being driven every since.
Radio display not working Third row seat won't disengage because of the cable wire being stretched out. Can't remove third row seat. Rear hatch leaking water severely No accident, bought car from Causley GMC in 2024 in Michigan
Engine, check engine. Light comes on and traction turns off and stability Tr A. K turns off while I'm driving, which is very dangerous now. The engine also has a very loud clicking. Ticking sound I'm not sure where it's coming from. But when I drive begins to get louder, and my traction turns off while on The highway or any road going over it?Twenty miles an hour, which is extremely dangerous on texas roads.
As I have owned several GMC Yukons in the past, I was familiar with their dashboards cracking even when still under warranty. However, when my 2014 Yukon dashboard cracked, just out of warranty, I was shocked at the cost to replace and install a new dashboard. Thus, the replacement dashboard and labor charge to install it was simply unfeasable. As the dashboard continued to crack during the summer, an alternative mentioned to me by a mechanic at the GMC dealership was a "glued on cover called a dashskin." I purchased a Dashskin for about $125 and, following the instructions, glued the Dashskin over my existing dashboard. The Dashskin had an opening for the airbag and did not appear to impede the execution of the airbag should it be initiated. I've made two attempts to have the attached recall on the airbag satisfied but, on both occasions, GMC informed me that the dashboard would require removal. In my case, the dashboard and Dashskin would be unusable and I would be back to purchasing a very expensive dashboard. I know that there has been a longterm, ongoing lawsuit against GMC regarding their cracking dashboards, but have no idea of the results. However, their airbag recall coupled with their inferior dashboards should be their expense, not mine.
The contact owns a 2014 GMC Yukon. The contact stated that on four separate occasions, while driving at various speeds, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was restarted after 10 minutes on the first occasion but started a lot sooner during the later failures. Additionally, the contact stated that at the last failure, while idling at a red light, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was taken to a dealer; however, the dealer was unable to duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 192,150.
Rear Lower control mounts completely rusted out allowing the rear to move back and the driveshaft to come out of the transmission. Fortunately, this happened 1 block from home at a stop sign, if it occurred on a highway, it would have caused a major accident and likely injuries. Complete frame is rusted to the point of failure, heard from others that this has happened to other makes of GM products, Tahoe, Chevy pickup trucks. They likely all share the same frame.
While driving, the vehicle display screen and lights start turning off and on. The warning lamp says " service trailer brake system" and the vehicle is unable to accelerate at all. Leaving me at a stand still in the middle of the road. It's a safely hazard because it happens suddenly and without warning and I am unable to move my vehicle so I'm just in the middle of the road. I haven't taken it in to the dealership yet. I looked online and there is a recall called " chassis electronic control module internal contamination" that meets the description of what's going on here, but when I called GMC they said there is no recall for my specific Vin, even though the recall is for my make model and year.

I have a crack dash right in the middle just below the mirror. I took it to gmc dealer in Tyler Texas about a year ago. I asked if they had any recalls on this problem. I bought this 2014 Yukon Denali in Illinois with 40,000 miles garage kept one owner. I also always parked Yukon in my 3 car garage. I wonder if there is a safety issure knowing the dash is cracked and moves when you hit a bump? Iam retired at age 63 and never had a dash crack on all vehicles I have owned. This 2014 Yukon Denali with 80,000 miles, garage kept should have never crack. My name is Fred Deven, phone #219-242-5923.

The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
State Farm is investigating the accident to see what, if anything, malfunctioned in my braking system. I ran a red light but when I pressed the brake upon approach of the red light my brakes didn't catch and so when I pressed them, I kept going at the same speed. I was going between 30 and 40 miles per hour I believe. Three cars were involved. I have a sore neck, chest, and burn marks in my neck region. I suspect my truck will be totalled. We performed routine maintenance on the vehicle. It had a little over 100K miles on it at the time of this wreck. There is not a recall on braking for 2014 models, but I see there is one for 2015.
Purchased new 2014 Yukon Denali in February 2015. Currently have 66,000 miles. September 2022: professional repair of the dashboard performed. Separation began June 2022. Separation of dash became larger, 2" to be exact, then the cracks appeared. Then it became noisy with rattling. According to the repair shop this is a common occurrence in some GM vehicles. GMC does not acknowledge this as a recall. February 5, 2021, our passenger side airbag was replaced by a certified GM/Chevrolet Dealership due to recall. Apparently, removal and replacement of airbag can weaken the dashboard. This is an issue I will advise GM of, whether or not it will make any difference.
