BONDDOGBONDDOG AUGUST 2006 EDITED JUNE 2015 IN GMC I PURCHASED MY 2006 YUKON LAST SEPTEMBER 2005. I NOW HAVE 24,000 MILES ON IT. OVER THE LAST MONTH I HAVE HAD IT INTO THE DEALER THREE TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS THAT WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT WILL SUDDENLY LOSE ALMOST ALL POWER. THE INFORMATION CENTER WILL DISPLAY THE MESSAGES: "STABILITY CONTROL DISABLED", "ENGINE POWER REDUCED". AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT GO OVER 20 MPH ON A LEVEL SURFACE AND BEARLY 3 MPH UP A MODERATELY STEEP HILL. EACH TIME I HAVE HAD IT INTO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR THEY HAVE BEEEN STUMPED BY WHAT THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM IS. THEY SAID THAT GM/GMC TOLD THEM THAT "GM IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR IT AT THIS TIME". HOW CAN A MANUFACTURER SELL A VEHICLE THAT HAS A DEFECT AND NOT HAVE A FIX FOR IT? WHEN THE POWER GOES OUT IN A BUSY INTERSECTION OR ON A HIGHWAY THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM.
