battery keeps dying by wallycin

I have a 2008 yukon denali. I have had nothing but trouble with this vehicle, starting with the xm module, then interior issues, then replaced the steering shift boot, then replaced the instrument cluster, then had to replace the fuse block inside the dash board on the drivers side. Now the battery keeps dying. I only drive it on weekends and have taken it to the dealership 3x for this problem . They can't figure out the problem. They have had it on monitors and say it is drawing the correct amp when it is supposed. I asked if it was the battery, but they said it was fine, and should start after sitting for 4 to 5 days. The problem is when I go to start it the battery is dead. I mean completely dead, no interior lights liftgate won't open. Nothing doing. Any ideas out there??? I am so upset at this vehicle I can't see straight. The good news is it is a lemon and I have a lawsuit against gmc. The bad news is I have to deal with this piece of crap until the trail date.

My 2008 Denali has proven to be a piece of GM GARBAGE] by skytop1

After 3 weeks new, this prestigeous amalgamation of tin broke down and had to be towed to the dealer. Never mind that the battery was so dead that the highly vaulted OnStar failed to work! I had to use my cell phone to call for a tow.
The dealer took two days to figure out that the battery was allegedly the cause of the problem. Mind you, the vehicle is only 3 weeks old.
Now my Denali bucks and shakes in the morning, shutters when shifting, rattles and drives like an old truck. Will I ever ever, ever buy another GM car or truck. '
Ha ha ha haaaa haaa. I will celebrate when GM finally goes bust. Today its stock was at about $4. and it's corporate paper was downgraded to PURE JUNK value. Just like their vehicles.

I have a 2005 Yukon Denali. When I stop at a light and then push the gas the truck stops and shows "traction active" on my dash. There are no service engine soon lights on the dash either. It stops the truck and I have to take my foot off the gas pedal and then push it again and then it will move. The truck doesn't shut off all power it just stops like I stepped on the brakes. It does this everytime I stop and go. Also, it will sometimes go if you don't take your foot off the pedal but it moves slow and shifts really hard. What is going on with this truck? Does anyone have any Ideas?

The last attempt to solve the issue with the doors not unlocking was to change the lock relay. I have not had a issue since was changed two weeks

This just starting happening to my 2004 Yukon Denali. But prior to this I had a different message, "service stability" and the ABS and Traction Off lights went on. I believe these are connected but not sure. A chevy dealership service department told me I had to replace the hub and bearing on a front wheel (w/o looking at it, just told them what it was doing). Buyt they were not sure about the loss of power when accelerating and the "traction active" message. Your post is older so I assume you already have gotten it fixed, if so maybe you could tell me what you had done. thanks.

Here's the answer to my problem as explained to me by my mechanic. The multi-function switch that sits in the steering column controls the turn signals, hi/low beams, wiper/washer and cruise control. When you switch between high and low beam one circuit opens, the other circuit closes. The fault occurred on the low beam side and would not ground when I switched back to low beams from high. My mechanic was able to fix the ground problem by cutting the ground wire that ran from each headlamp back to the multi-function switch and grounded them directly to the frame. No doubt GM wouldn't approve of this fix but I wasn't about to pay $250+ for a new switch plus labor.
