Replying to: junglegeorge (Jul 08, 2007 4:38 pm) I'm sorry you're having problems.. they sound strange too.. I hope the GEN2 is defective and the GEN3 solves your problems.. let me know..Good luck George... BTW in a lot of the earlier posts here people were having similar problems. They didn't have anything like lockpicks installed either. When they complained to the dealer they reprogrammed something and the problem was solved. I think it was mainly the first ones (2007s) that came out. You might want to take it out for a week or so and make sure you don't have the same problem before you install the GEN3. Next time your radio or other component won't power up. try restarting the vehicle with the driver door open. they say that made it work then.. Strange isn't it? Good Luck
#2640 of 3125 GM Lockpick Gen3 by kficeman1 Jul 09, 2007 (2:02 pm)
I just installed mine last week and now I'm free of the "electronic nanny's" grip!!! It drove me crazy to get locked out once out of park. The GEN3 allows for a additional video input to be played on the screen, i.e a baby cam.   Removing the face plate involves a firm and steady pull at the various locations of the clips, yes it feels like you are going to snap it to pieces but it will come off.   Delivered the GEN3 was $260.   -Kevin
#2641 of 3125 The Black Box by onerskygrl Jul 09, 2007 (2:43 pm)
I just learned an interesting thing today. Apparently there is a "black box" in GMC (and I guess Chevy as well) vehicles that - how shall we say - gathers information on the driver's speed, handling, etc. And this information can be distributed to your insurance company. Like if you are in an accident - they pull the black box and find out your speed, how you were driving, etc. Kind of like Uncle Sam over your shoulder. I just bought my husband a 2007 Denali for his birthday and I called the dealer and asked about it and he said it was true. He's trying to get me more information on it. And then we will talk to our mechanic about getting it out of there. I can't believe they can do something like that without telling you!!!!!!! Replies to this message: csprick (Jul 09, 2007 4:19 pm)

Replying to: onerskygrl (Jul 09, 2007 2:43 pm) Not new news.   Many (all??) manufacturers have been installing these for some years. See this site for starters, or do a search for "Event Data Recorder" +automobile for more information.
#2643 of 3125 Gen2 vs Gen3 by chile96 Jul 10, 2007 (5:05 pm)
if i understand it correctly, the only difference between the Gen2 and Gen3 LockPicks is that the Gen3 adds some features for the DVD use. So if I have nav but do not have the DVD system(no backseat flip down screen), then I'm guessing the Gen3 upgrade will be of no benefit for me???   Am I right??   Thanks Replies to this message: seabyrd (Jul 10, 2007 5:34 pm)

Replying to: chile96 (Jul 10, 2007 5:05 pm) Gen2 and Gen3 do the same things.. the gen3 is later improvaed version I think.. I think it has an extra port inside to add another camera or something.. Not sure though.
#2645 of 3125 Door Sticking - not aligned by rhame13 Jul 12, 2007 (9:39 pm)
I have had my 2007 Yukon Denali since September last year...Love it. Yesterday I got in my Yukon at the car wash and I noticed a loud popping sound. At first I thought it was my retractable running boards making the sound when I closed my door as they were retracting. Upon closer inpection I realized it was my driver door panel catching the front fender panel and it had chipped the paint all the way to the metal. The people at the car wash pointed out to me before they ran my truck through that my rear light assembly on the drivers side was about to fall off. Apparently the tabs that hold it in had broken off or something.   I called a local GMC service dept and they told me that the door becoming misaligned happens from time to time and that could I bring it on Monday so this would give them a week to realign it and touch up the paint. I was told that GM would not pay for a loaner car for me over the weekend if I would have dropped it off and they didn't get it back out to me.   ?? Has anyone else had either of these problems?

#2646 of 3125 Door Stick by onerskygrl Jul 12, 2007 (9:53 pm)
I just bought my husband a 2007 Denali as a birthday present. I also purchased the extra warranty as there are more bells and whistles on it than I ever imagined and if the navigation system or anything else electical goes - the warranty will pay for itself in the first use.   Your issue sounds like a defect and I would definitely NOT take the GMC service department story of it "happening from time to time" as a good excuse. To me that's BS. ..and I would be raising a stink all the way to GMC corporate office if necessary. I have never heard of such a thing happening. Also - the loaner vehicle should be something that they do. We carry the additional coverage through our insurance carrier State Farm - in case of something like this. You need to have a coming to Jesus meeting with the sales manager. When you pay $50k for a vehicle - you expect some better treatment. Good luck and let us know how you made out.
#2647 of 3125 What's your mileage??? by saratogalake Jul 13, 2007 (10:47 am)
June 30th marked a year I've had my 2007 Tahoe. I have just shy of 35,000 miles on it. With the exception of a flat rear tire (ran over a piece os steel in the road) I've had ZERO problems. While the car is not perfect, It's the best GM product I've owned in 37 years. I'd like to hear from others as to how there's are holding up.

Usually what misaligns a door is another vehicle's bumper....as in a collision. I can't see how your problem could happen unless a hinge or some part of the door frame broke. And your rear light assembly is held on to the body with screws....not tabs. Something strange happening here....and it ain't exactly clear!!!!
