When beginning to drive forward after coming to a stop at an intersection. The vehicle will often stall in the middle of the intersection. Requiring me to switch it transmission into natural and restart it as it-??s rolling. I almost gotten rear ended many times I always get honked at. It just a matter of time before it causes an accident. It sometime happens after turning as well. I looked at forums on this gmc Yukon hybrid. And it looks like many other owners are asking the same question and nobody is coming up with any answers. Other customers say the dealer told them the hesitation is Normal. I took my truck into a local repair shop and he called me after three weeks saying it was done, but it still had the check engine light on and still is stalling out in intersections. Charge me $2000. This has been happening daily since I got the vehicle
I have an 2008 Yukon with a cracked dash board in many deferents parts. The cracks are so bad that while driving everything shakes and make all raddling noises. The section around the air bag makes lots of noise. The car has never been in an accident. Just bough the car about a year ago and it was cracked then.
The vehicle suddenly and without warning, shut down while it was being driven down the road. Dashboard was off and it coasted to a stop. Fortunately it was on a city road with very little traffic (but this vehicle is driven on the highway frequently). Once it was put in park, the key was turned, it immediately started again and ran perfectly.
My 2008 Yukon has had an electrical mystery for awhile now. When you open the doors the "chime" will be very faint and then the next time it's very loud. The clock resets like the battery has been disconnected after shutting the car off. The door locks will lock and unlock by themselves will I'm driving. I can turn the car off after driving it and it will be completely dead. It wont do anything. You can't lock the doors, turn on the radio, start the car or anything. Almost like it doesnt have a battery at all. Wait 10 minutes or so and slam a few doors and it starts right up. We've replaced batteries, alternators, fuses and taken it to mechanics with no luck. After replacing the battery it will work for several months and then it will do it again. There has to be a short somewhere and after googling it there are 1000 of people having the same problems. We had problems since we purchased the car in 2017 and I'm positive the owner before me had the same issues.
On 06/07/2019 I purchased my 2008 GMC Yukon slt in a private sale with 43K miles on it hardly driven, a well taken care of SUV no cracks in the dash now a month and 1000 miles later I am driving and notice it has a crack in the driver's side of the dash 4" long near the seam in front of the instrument cluster, and a crack in the passenger's side of the dash 2" long at the corner of the airbag. I immediately saw this as a safety issue. The takata air bag inflators are under recall with a status of remedy not yet available according to the carfax I ran and at safercar.gov making the dash a ticking time bomb with shrapnel as a bonus to possibly injure or kill myself or my wife in the event the air bags deploy the dealership quoted a ridiculous repair price and admitted that a cracked dashes are an issue with the Yukon. A dash cover is nothing but a band aid on a broken leg. I want GM to issue a recall.

I have a 2008 GMC Yukon slt that I bought in Feb of 2015 with 94,000 miles. I have serviced it regularly from day 1 and even paid it off in 2.5 years. As soon as I paid it off, the very next month, my engine started making a weird noise once in a while w/ no check engine light so no one could tell what was wrong. At that same time my "service stabilitrak/service traction control" would ding about 40 times in a row. I serviced the 2 and it did not help for more than 2 days and it started again. This time the check engine light came on codes were for new plugs and fuel filter. Still didn't help. Then my engine blew! got that replaced and it still to this day is doing same thing! so, like the 330 others, we have a major safety issue that no one cares to address, and I'm done trying! if this man are having the same issue it's a GM issue! I'm copying the NHTSA and my atty general for help. Please click this link and read 330 complaints about the same exact thing and youtube has people actually stuck bc their car died. Mine did not ever die but it sure feels like it is and. It happens every single time I drive my Yukon! please help us! I'm on unemployment and cannot afford anymore repairs. I shouldn't have to pay for this many things to be fixed and still not touch the problem!

The vehicle caught fire while parked and ignition turned off. Fire appeared to start in the engine area. Vehicle had been parked and turned off for approx 1.5 to 2 hours before the fire was reported.
Cracked dash board...severe cracking above instrument panel/steering wheel and severe cracking around the passenger side airbag. Issue has already been fixed one time before and this is a recurring issue with the same cracks in the same places.
I love my truck. The only thing that is unsatisfying is my cracked dash from the left side to the right of the truck. The air bag light flashes due to the sides wall and dash board air bag is coming out.I would hate to hit a squirrel and it the air bag pops. I have one window that refuses to come down and last but not least, the dang cruise control only sets after 80mph. I hve to pray everyday not to get a speeding ticket in low speeding areas and the dash board with the sharp edges will not cause more injuries than the airbag if I'm ever in an accident. Please come to some type of agreement foe a recall to fix this matter. Pretty truck outside but the inside clean, crack, and broke up as is it was a fight inside.help help help bring it back to life
My dashboard is cracked around the airbag and over the steering column. I am missing a big piece of the dashboard over the steering column. My main concern (other than the horrible rattling noise I have to listen to when I drive) is the cracking of the dashboard around the airbag. The cracking has actually popped the square section of the airbag up. There is also a 6-7 inch broken off piece of dash around the airbag that is just sitting there loosely. What will happen if I am in an accident and have this large piece of loose dash flying around" or, since my airbag cover is popped up, can this cause my airbag to deploy" I took the vehicle to the dealership and they told me that I didn't qualify for a free replacement, that it would cost me $800 to replace myself.
We have 3 GM Suburban and GMC Yukon that all have cracked dashes. I find it hard to believe that all 3 of ours have cracked dashes. There has got to be a problem with the dash board and GM needs to step up and do something about this before some one gets hurts. The dash boards all cracked about 10 months ago.
2008 Yukon 5 cracks across the entire dashboard within 30 days, 3 cracks have formed in 72 hours. One crack appeared while I was at work, in the span of 3 hours. This truck has been regularly maintained and kept in a garage for majority of its life. The cracks are forming so fast that pieces will begin shattering and falling inside. Two cracks have formed next to the passenger side airbag, that has takata inflators- exciting times! my dealership has informed me that GMC will not compensate or assist in remedying this issue- but the dealer will be happy to replace the dash for $1300.
The dashboard is cracked on the passenger side possibly damaging the passenger side airbag. The vehicle was stationary. Came out one morning and it was cracked. Had a friend who had a brand new denali and it happened to his in less than 1 year from purchase.
Dashboard cracked. This is the 2nd incident to this same vehicle. Dash was previous replaced by dealership. Cracks are in the same area as previous cracks
