#4004 of 4070 Re: General Motors HAS LOST IT!!! [naligirl] by yukonnotruck Jul 03, 2006 (2:48 pm)
Replying to: naligirl (Jun 18, 2006 7:11 pm) Naligirl, You should read a little deeper in this forum. Appears YOU are the only one being serviced by GM. Note the individual who JUST bought a truck and feels he is getting nothing from the dealer or GM. I wonder if someone in your family has something to do with this failing car company as I said you appear to be the ONLY satisfied customer here. BTW GM's sales are down over 25% for the month. Maybe the car they are giving you can boost up there failing lineup. Best of Luck! Yukon No Truck Replies to this message: naligirl (Jul 22, 2006 4:44 pm)
#4005 of 4070 rear window hinge by pjreilly Jul 17, 2006 (5:31 pm)
Yesterday I noticed that my rear window on my 2003 Yukon XL wasn't closing properly. As I investigated further, the hinge is sealed with some type of plastic coating, and this had pulled away, and is now totally seperated from the Hinge. Will an epoxy resin work or will I need to replace the entire rear window? Please help Replies to this message: nlare (Aug 24, 2006 4:30 pm) pjreilly (Aug 25, 2006 7:37 am)

Replying to: yukonnotruck (Jul 03, 2006 2:48 pm) Again, I am sorry for those who are not getting satisfactory resolution. I can only recommend that people with on going problems find out who the GM Service Rep is for the dealership they bought their car from. Get his/her name and number and contact them directly. Be prepared to provide them with a print out of all your service records from the dealership they can review. Possibly even leave them with the Service Mgr at the dealership and ask that he hand them over to the GM Rep upon his next visit. (Definitely call the GM Service Rep and let him know you've left them for him) My dealer's GM Rep is in once a week. It shouldn't take long to get the records to their attention. Let them know that you want a buy back. I can only tell you how it worked for me. Lastly, I was professional and matter of fact about it all. I wasn't threatening or emotional. I don't know if that helped or not, but I'd guess it had some influence.
#4007 of 4070 2001 Yukon XL Jack Handle Extension by blaxton Jul 29, 2006 (1:50 pm)
I did a really stupid thing. First, here's the not stupid part: the OE jack that came w/my Yukon stopped working (the extension wouldn't telescope back down), so my wife bought another jack at Wal-Mart. I put on the spare and threw the damaged tire in the back to have our mechanic in Atlanta fix it (we were at our house in N.C. when the flat occurred)......Now, here's the stupid part: when I put the new jack in, I thought to myself, "Oh, all I need is the lug wrench, since I have a new jack." I threw the old jack AND the jack handle extensions in the trash. You saw it coming: now, I have no way to mount my spare back underneath the YXL. Really dumb. Here's my question: can anyone suggest a way OTHER than trolling junkyards to find a handle extension? Thanks!

Replying to: pjreilly (Jul 17, 2006 5:31 pm) I had the exact same thing happen on my 03 Yukon XL today. This seems like a design flaw, or a manufacturing defect. We hardly ever use the window only open feature...so it surely didn't wear out. Any one out there know the solution? Replies to this message: pjreilly (Aug 25, 2006 7:37 am)

Replying to: nlare (Aug 24, 2006 4:30 pm) I went to Home Depot and got the strongest 2 part epoxy I could find, and took the entire window off the vehicle. I had to remove some of the previous bonding material to make the window hinge fit flush like it was originally. I then applied the epoxy all over the entire hinge. It set up and dried within 1 hour, and I reinstalled the window, and have not had any trouble since (knock on wood). 1 Tip dont try to reinstall the window yourself, get someone to help you it makes it much easier. I was unfortunately by my self that day and into the early evening. But with a little luck I got it. Hope this helps

#4011 of 4070 We need your help! by tidester HOST Oct 15, 2006 (10:24 pm)
Hi, everyone. As you've probably noticed, we have been trying to refine the discussions into more narrowly focussed topics. Our objective is twofold. We want to make it easier for people seeking specific information about their vehicles to find it easily and without having to wade through hundreds or thousands of postings.   To those ends, we will be shutting down the general make/model discussions and work exclusively with specific issues. This requires us to populate the make/model subsections with relevant, interesting and timely topics. Rather than having the hosts simply create boilerplate topics for each make/model, we feel that you, the owner, the make/model enthusiast and the prospective buyer can best judge what those topics should be.   You can help by adding a discussion (it's easy!) or suggesting one here.   To add a discussion, click on the last link in the "You are here" line at the top of this page. That will take you to the topic page for this make/model. Review the list of topics and click on the "Add discussion" link when you've decided what topic you'd like to add. Follow the directions and you're done! Feel free to add more than one. Just avoid duplicating existing topics and try not to make it TOO specific!   Your help and continued participation in the Forums is greatly appreciated! Thanks.
#4012 of 4070 Ignorance might well be bliss by edlegue Nov 22, 2006 (8:53 am)
I recently bought a 2004 Yukon XL SLT with 17,900 miles. I think I got a pretty good deal on it but I am concerned with the mileage:engine hours ratio. At 17,900 the engine hours read 744, which gives you an average of 24 MPH. I don't know if there is such a thing as and national average but 24 MHP seems pretty low. The deal went fairly easy and the car was priced at least a couple thousand less than others with comparable stats. I know it's tough to screw with the odometer but something bugs me about this car. Runs good, smells good and I love the vehicle. I suppose that if I didn't have the hour meter it would not have occurred to me. Any comments please.

Replying to: edlegue (Nov 22, 2006 8:53 am) Sounds reasonable, if the previous owner had a lousy commute. I bet my average is not much higher on weekdays. You really can never know, they may have idled in park for long periods. A lot of men sit in the car with the AC running while waiting for their wife to come out of a store. And the school down the road from me has so many moms waiting in their cars, I guess nobody rides the bus any more. They start lining up a good 30 minutes early and sit there with the engine idling until school lets out.   It's logical that stop and go, slow driving, is tougher on the vehicle than all highway miles. But a 2004 with only 17,900 seems fairly low to me actually. I wouldn't worry about it. There's a risk you take with any used car, but the money savings probably more than outweighs it.
