2014 Gmc YUKON: complaints, problems and recalls

I HAD A FRONT END COLLISION AT 25 MPH WITH A PARKED CAR. MY AIRBAG(S) DID NOT DEPLOY. THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF MY CAR WAS DESTROYED. THE HOOD WAS CRUMPLED AND BOTH FRONT QUARTER PANELS DAMAGED. THE FRONT DOORS ARE NOT EASILY OPENED DUE TO THE QUARTER PANEL DAMAGE. IT IS HARD FOR ME TO UNDERSTAND HOW AN IMPACT AT THE SPEED I WAS TRAVELING AND THE LOCATION OF IMPACT DID NOT CAUSE THE AIRBAG(S) TO DEPLOY. I HAD TO BE TRANSPORTED VIA AMBULANCE FROM THE SCENE AND SUFFERED A CONCUSSION FROM MY HEAD SLAMMING DOWN ON THE STEERING WHEEL. *JS

FOR THE FOURTH TIME THE REAR LIFT GATE HATCH WINDOW HAS SEPARATED FROM THE HINGE (S). IT ALWAYS HAPPENS WHILE IN MOTION AND ON JUST A STRAIGHT ROAD! I GUESS I WILL START TAKING PICS OF THE HINGES, NEVER THOUGH OF THAT SINCE IT IS ON WARRANTY. I AM AFRAID IT WILL SOMETIME FALL COMPLETELY OFF WHILE DRIVING.

THE DASH CRACKED IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS. I HAVE 1 LONG CRACK OVER THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND 3 CRACKS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ON THE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT. THIS IS MORE THAN A COSMETIC ISSUE. I AM PARTICULARLY CONCERNED THAT THE CRACKS AROUND THE AIRBAG POSE GREAT DANGER IF THE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED IN THAT IT COULD SEND SHARP PLASTIC PIECES FLYING IMPALING A PASSENGER OR THE SHARP PIECES COULD PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG LEAVING THE PASSENGER WITHOUT PROTECTION. I AM UNSURE OF WHEN IT HAPPENED; I JUST HAPPENED TO NOTICE THE CRACKS WHILE DRIVING LAST WEEK. *T…

THE CHROME WHEELS ON THE INSIDE ARE HEAVILY CORRODED AND CAUSING AIR TO RELEASE FROM THE TIRES. THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS AS WELL AS CONFIRMED REPLACEMENTS TO THESE VEHICLES. OUR VEHICLE WAS STRANDED DUE TO SO MUCH LOSS OF AIR, AS WELL AS THE SAFETY ISSUE OF A TIRE BLOW OUT. GMC REFUSES TO SEE THIS AS A DEFECTIVE ISSUE.

The rear brake caliper bolts may not be fully tightened. Thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems."

Consequence: Loose caliper bolts may cause reduced braking performance and result in lengthened stopping distances, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the bolts on both rear brake caliper brackets. Any bolts found loose will be replaced and tightened. This service will be performed, at no charge. Owners may contact Chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 and GMC at 1-800-462-8782. GM's recall number is 13247.

These vehicles are equipped with non-desiccated passenger frontal inflators containing phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant.
