What 194 owners told NHTSA about the 2017 GMC Yukon

So the shock strut system up front has a grommet that holds it in. The repair order said they put a shock simulator in the car and it gave false reading saying it was good and it came out broke break line and caused me to jump a curve to stop the vehicle. ALSO Now the THE TAIL LIGHT IS OUT AND NO WAY TO REPAIR IT NO ONE HAS THE LIGHT. Also this car is on its third transmission

This has been going on for a while now, but it’s getting worse overtime. If I push on my brakes more than twice the brake pedal locks up and I have to push extremely hard to get my vehicle stopped.. luckily I have never been going fast and had to worry about this. This is normally when I am pulling into a parking spot or I am backing up that I have to tap on my brakes a few times. A couple of times I have bumped the pole in front of my parking spot due to not having brakes. I just put in a general date as to when they started to get worse.

WHEN DRIVING OCCASIONALLY YOU HAVE TO PUSH REALLY HARD ON THE BRAKES TO STOP. 9/10 TIMES BRAKES WORK NORMAL BUT ONCE IN A WHILE YOU HAVE TO PRESS VERY HARD TO STOP. WAS PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY AT A VERY LOW SPEED BRAKES WERE HARD TO PRESS AND RAN INTO THE WALL OF THE GARAGE. BROUGHT TO THE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW AND STILL NOT FIXED.

LOW SPEED BREAK FAILURE. IN MY DRIVEWAY, IN PARKINGLOTS, USUALLY AFTER HAVING FOOT ON BREAK TO "ROLL" AND THEN STOP AGAIN, NO BREAKS, OR HAVE TO PUT TWO FEET DOWN TO STOP. I HIT A CAR IN FRONT OF ME TWO DAYS AGO AFTER WAITING AT A RED LIGHT, STARTING TO ROLL BECAUSE THEY ROLLED, THEN THEY STOPPED, AND I HIT THE BREAK AND NOTHING HAPPENED. MY HUSBAND HAS TAKEN THE CAR MULTIPLE TIMES TO BE LOOKED AT FOR THE BREAKS NOT WORKING FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS.
