My wife was driving down the highway and the truck just lost all power and cut off. She managed to make it to the side of the road and put it in park. It didn't start right away but I a couple of minutes it started back up and we made it home. It has subsequently done this several times now.

Yukon 8-cyl

The head gasket leaked water, due to a faulty intake manifold. The vehicle also had problem with a wet floor, the consumer believed it was coming from the air conditioner. Dealer not notified yet. The intake manifold gasket leak under pressure which rusted and pitted the right cylinder head. The improperly torqued gaskets leaked at 10 psi required by the manual. The rear clogged up forcing condensation to build up and escaped into the rear compartment of the vehicle which soaked the padding.
