| I was driving on route 287 north, in morristown, nj when the car in front of me stopped short and i needed to apply my brakes. when i used my brake pedal, the pedal went all the way down to the floor and i could not stop. i was able to avoid the vehicle in front of me, and i swerved to avoid other cars. i rolled to a stop on the grass shoulder of the highway and found a puddle of brake fluid under the car. after inspection of the brakes done by a certified gm mechanic, he found that all of the brake lines in the car burst open due to heavy corrosion leading to the complete failure of the system. his recommendation was to replace all brake lines in the vehicle as none of them were able to be salvaged. *tr | |||

| The anti-lock brakes engages at low speeds every time i stop. this could cause front end collision because the vehicle does not completely stop when braking and i do not have control. gm would not fix the issue on my vehicle due to high mileage even though mileage was not a factor. other yukon vehicles were included in the recall but my vin for some reason was not included. *tr | |||

| 2001gmc yukon denali - abs brakes engage at parking lot speeds increasing stopping distances at slow speeds. there appears to be a recall for this (66163) and nhtsa recall campaign (o5v-379000) for 2002+ cars but not 2001. i believe that 2001 was the model year changeover where some 2001s were old body style and some new. mine is the newer style. *tr | |||

| Continuous braking problems. i understand normal wear and tear, however i have had to replace my front rotors, calipers, brakes, emergency brake system on several occasions. for the last 5 months my abs & emergency brake lights come on and off during driving. i have had a gmc dealership (folsom gmc) and les schwab perform diagnostic checks to only tell me that i need to replace brake pads and calipers again due to wear. they have been unable to detect why the two lights come on. last night on my way home the two lights came on again, this time i noticed a loud motor running, even when my vehicle was turned off the motor noise continued. once i pulled the abs fuse out of the control box the motor stopped. i am taking the vehicle into have it serviced again. i would like to have your company perform an investigation on the antilocking system and brake system on these vehicles. in my research online i found others denali owners with the same vehicle brake/antilock system failures. a few of the complaints i found are at www.allworldauto.com and www.lemonauto.com. thank you for your time. *tr | |||

| I have a 2001 gmc yukon slt, and i have had an abs problem, although there was not one specific instance, which caused it. i heard a constant running sound, even when the vehicle was not running. narrowed it down to the abs, and had to pull the fuse to stop it. now, my brake & abs lights constantly illuminated. it had me at a disadvantage. i am a father of 2, and we often transport our parents. generally do most traveling in the yukon, but now apprehensive about the idea of it. do not want to subject the family to such. i deploy a lot, and don't want my wife to drive it in this condition. i tried to take it to the gmc dealers awhile back. the dealers will not fix it, just replaced them. which was around a grand to do. since there was no recall outside the salt belt states they won't help us. i found someone in the area with the same problem. i researched it online, and it appeared to be an common safety problem. there was a recall, but it did not apply here in fort walton beach, florida. in which were are on the coast subject to salt waters of the gulf coast. i noticed it on recall nhtsa campaign id # 05v379000. it affected salt belt states of connecticut, delaware, illinois, indiana, iowa, maryland, massachusetts, maine, michigan, minnesota, missouri, new hampshire, new jersey, new york, ohio, pennsylvania, rhode island, vermont, west virginia, wisconsin and the district of columbia only.... please extend recall area for other locations that have the same problem. maybe coastal areas, etc. *ak | |||
