#44 of 48 same sad story by retfire Sep 16, 2009 (6:28 pm)
i just bought my 2009 yukon xl,2800 miles on it.same shit is happening with mine.i made a left u-turn the first time and it stalled,started right up.i thought it might have been because i only had an 1/8 tank of gas,so i let it go.i did notice it ran sluggish,so i upped the fuel octane to plus,cost a little more but gave it a try.same shit.was driving home the other night and made a left u-turn,1/4 mile down the road got on the on ramp,stalled again,with my family in the car.pissed me off big time.i took it to gmc dealer today,can't find anything wrong with it.they told me i had to wait till the computer picks it up to diagnose the problem.he said it might be the aftermarket dvd player that it might be shorting something out.he said they would have to disconnect it to see if that is the problem.i will let you know what is happening after i deal with them.they obviously know there is a problem,since i am not alone in this,they just want to blow smoke up my ass.pisses me off.

Replying to: retfire (Sep 16, 2009 7:06 pm) dated may 6,2009   Be sure to take a copy of the recall notice to the dealer - it should give you some leverage.   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper

Replying to: fongerelli (Sep 15, 2009 9:07 am) I guess I was assuming that it was flooded but did not smell gas. She still cranks on the 3rd try and I hear my fuel pump kick in everythime I turn the key. I had her on the highway yesterday at high speeds and everytime I punched it, she took off with the power that she always had. She never stalls or shuts off and I see that she is gettting fuel, but on the way back, my service light came on and I took it by the parts store to read the codes, and they said that the connector wasn't getting power so they couldn't read the codes. But this morning I went to the store and it was on when I got there. Switched the truck off and went inside and came out 5 minutes later and did the 3 try start thingy and the light was off. I'm thinking that it may be a computer problem or something as well. I did just recently get a new battery installed. Wondering if you have to reset the computer when installing a new battery? But I will also replace that crankshaft position sensor and see what happens. Thanks for the responses as well everyone.

just got back from dealer,again.brought all my info on the recall and told him that i read about others having same problem.he told me,again,that the trucks computer needs to pick up the problem so they can fix it,and that he can't remember a recall.this is what we are dealing with.he stated that they reprogrammed something to do with the sluggishness the car was having.again,nothing found that would address the problem of my truck stalling.and i can't turn the truck in like i posted earlier.it is a new program and you may return the vehicle if not satisfied if you purchased it between sept.15 and oct.15.i purchased my truck in late july.am calling gm today,i will post what they said.
