The vehicle (where a record says)

A record is under an engine, a drive or a series only where it says so: the characters of the vehicle identification number filed with a complaint, its text, or what its document says it applies to. A record that does not say is kept as "not stated". The filed numbers and the documents do not tell 4WD from AWD.

Common on this vehicle:Warning lightNoiseLoss of engine power, no accelerationMisfire or rough idleLeakGauge or instrument faultStalls or shuts offDoes not start

Record by record

13 records state a cause or a remedy. Each record is shown as short labels in the order fault → finding the cause → correction. Press a label to narrow to the records that state it.

A ribbon is as wide as the records that state both of its ends (only the commonest are drawn). A record that names several symptoms or components runs through each. Orange is records that say the fault came back or was not fixed. Results come from owners’ reports only; one that does not say is “result not stated”. None of this is a likelihood of a cause or a rate at which work succeeds.

Known issuesCrankshaft position sensor may work intermittently or fail (8.1L V8) - recall 07V-5211

  1. Recall2001 GMC YUKON ・ 2007-07-11

    Crankshaft Position Sensor Failure Recall

    1. 1Fault

      • The crankshaft position sensor can fail intermittently or permanently; if it fails intermittently, the Service Engine Soon (SES) light may illuminate and the vehicle may run rough.
      • The engine may also stall and may re-start immediately or after a cool down period; if the sensor fails permanently, the engine will quit running and will not re-start.
      • If this happens while the vehicle is moving, a crash could result without prior warning.
    2. 2Finding the cause

      Possible causes

      • Variations in the crankshaft position sensor manufacturing process caused an elevated rate of intermittent or inoperative sensors.
    3. 3Correction

      Repair

      1. Replace the engine crankshaft position sensor following the appropriate SI service procedure.
      2. The repair listed for the claim is: replace the crankshaft position sensor and perform the Crankshaft Position System Variation Learn.

      Parts

      • Part: 12575172 Sensor, Crankshaft Position, quantity 1 per vehicle.

      Part numbers printed in the document

      The numbers are as the document prints them. The name and the replacing number are what the pages of GMPartsGiant, a reseller of genuine parts and not GM, state. Aftermarket equivalents are not checked here (the links only search by number). Confirm the fit for the vehicle (VIN) before ordering.

      Caution

      • Vehicle eligibility is to be confirmed with the GM Vehicle Inquiry System (GMVIS) before beginning repairs; not all vehicles within the breakpoints may be involved.

    • Caution:Vehicle eligibility is to be confirmed with the GM Vehicle Inquiry System (GMVIS) before beginning repairs; not all vehicles within the breakpoints may be involved.
    Cause
    ON CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH AN 8.1L V8 ENGINE, THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION CAN OPERATE INTERMITTENTLY OR FAIL COMPLETELY. IF THE SENSOR OPERATES INTERMITTENTLY, THE SES LIGHT MAY ILLUMINATE AND THE VEHICLE MAY RUN ROUGH. THE ENGINE MAY STALL, AND IF SO, MAY RE-START IMMEDIATELY OR AFTER A COOL DOWN PERIOD.
    Remedy
    DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 18, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438 AND GMC AT 1-866-996-9463.
    Consequence
    IF THE SENSOR BECOMES COMPLETELY INOPERATIVE, THE ENGINE WILL QUIT RUNNING AND WILL NOT RE-START. EITHER OF THESE FAILURES CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH.
