YESTERDAY I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND TURNED ON THE A/C. THE A/C BLOWER WAS BLOWING AT THE HIGHEST SETTING REGARDLESS OF THE CONTROL SETTING. I TURNED THE A/C OFF AND THE BLOWER REMAINED ON. I TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND THE BLOWER CONTINUED TO RUN. THE BLOWER CONTINUED TO RUN FOR APPROXIMATELY 8 MINUTES WHILE MY HUSBAND RESEARCHED ONLINE HOW TO GET IT TO STOP. THE BLOWER DID NOT STOP RUNNING UNTIL MY HUSBAND REMOVED THE FUSE. IF MY HUSBAND WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN WITH ME THE BLOWER WOULD HAVE CONTINUOUSLY RAN, CAUSING IT TO OVERHEAT, AND POSSIBLY CAUSING A FIRE. ALSO, WE HAVE DIGITAL GEAR LIGHTS ON OUR DASH. THOSE LIGHTS STARTED PERIODICALLY DIMMING SEVERAL YEARS AGO AND HAVE SINCE GONE OUT COMPLETELY, OTHER THAN THE SELDOM RANDOM OCCASION, SO WE CAN NO LONGER READ WHAT GEAR THE VEHICLE IS IN. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED AND ASKED WHAT THE CAUSE WAS AND HOW TO REPAIR IT. WE WERE TOLD THE COMPLETE INSTRUMENT CONTROL PANEL CLUSTER WOULD NEED TO BE REP

2005 GMC YUKON XL 1500. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO AIR BAG MALFUNCTION DURING ACCIDENT. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED HE AND HIS WIFE WERE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT ON DECEMBER 6, 2013. THE VEHICLE WENT A PROLONGED SKID ON BLACK ICE, SPUN AROUND SEVERAL TIMES, AND STRUCK A GUARDRAIL HEAD-ON. THE SUPPORT POSTS BROKE, AND THE VEHICLE WENT AIRBORNE, CLEARING OVER THE TOP OF THE GUARDRAIL AND TRAVELED A DISTANCE OF 40 FEET THROUGH THE AIR, LANDING ABOUT 30 FEET BELOW THE LEVEL OF THE ROADWAY IN A MUDDY PASTURE, IN TREES ON ITS WHEELS. THE CONSUMERS WIFE WAS INJURED, DUE TO BEING THROWN FROM THE SHOULDER BELT BY THE ANTI-CLOCKWISE SPIN OF THE VEHICLE. *JB UPDATED 04/08/14

THIS BASIC INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY TEN TIMES. THE 4WD CONTROL MODULE MALFUNCTIONS AT RANDOM. THE VEHICLE MESSAGE CENTER WILL DISPLAY "SERVICE 4WD," AND A CLICKING SOUND CAN BE HEARD AS THE LIGHTS ON THE TRANSFER CASE CONTROL PANEL SWITCH ON AND OFF, SWITCHING THE VEHICLE IN AND OUT OF GEAR. SEVERAL TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE TRUCK SHIFTED INTO 4LO AT MODERATE SPEED. ONCE, THE VEHICLE STALLED IN AN INTERSECTION WITH THE ABRUPT SHIFT. I AM CONVINCED THAT THIS IS A SYSTEMATIC ISSUE WITH GM 4WD TRUCKS, BUT IT IS IN NO WAY BEING ADDRESSED. IT IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD WHEN A 5400 LB. VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHIFTS INTO LOW RANGE OR NEUTRAL WITHOUT ADVANCE WARNING. A SIMPLE INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OTHER GM VEHICLE OWNERS. THE ONLY REMEDY SEEMS TO BE REMOVING THE RELAY TO CUT POWER TO THE MODULE, THUS RENDERING THIS "MIGHTY" 4X4 A 2WD SLED. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD OF THE HIGHEST ORDER! I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH NEGATIVE THINGS ABOUT THE ELE

DURING ACCELERATION AND OCCASIONALLY DURING BRAKING, THE WHEEL SENSOR(S) CAUSE THE TRACTION CONTROL TO BECOME ACTIVE, OR CAUSE THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES TO ENGAGE. IN ALL CASES, ACTIVATION IS IN ERROR BASED ON AMBIENT CONDITIONS. I AM ABLE TO OVERRIDE THE TRACTION ACTIVE PROBLEMS BY DISABLING THE TRACTION ASSIST, BUT THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ARE NOT CONTROLLED BY THE SAME SWITCH. I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND NUMEROUS EXAMPLES OF THE SAME FAILURE WITH THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE, BUT NO RECALL EXISTS YET FOR THIS PARTICULAR YEAR AND MODEL. TO DATE, THE FAILURE HAS NOT CAUSED A CRASH, BUT NOW THAT WINTER IS HERE I HAVE TO MAKE REPAIRS BECAUSE DISENGAGING THE TRACTION ASSIST IS NOT PRACTICAL IN SNOWY CONDITIONS. MY MECHANIC ADVISED ME THAT IT REQUIRES CHANGING THE FULL FRONT WHEEL BEARING ASSEMBLY BECAUSE OF CORROSION BUILDUP ON THE TONE RING. HE ALSO TOLD ME THAT HE DID CHANGE A SENSOR ON A SIMILAR VEHICLE BUT THE SENSOR DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE WHEEL BEARING WILL COST SEVERAL HUNDRE
