Record by record
3 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.

- Cause
- On certain Yukon Denali and Yukon XL Denali vehicles, the positive battery cable assembly that could come in contact with the steering shaft universal joint. This could eventually cause a wear through of the cable assembly convoluted conduit and cable insulation and result in intermittent electrical shorting. This could result in overheating and igniting of the cable insulation and conduit and a possible underhood fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect the positive battery cable for proper routing and reroute if necessary. Cable will also be inspected for wear of the conduit and cable insulation, and replaced if necessary.

Fuel Module Reservoir Assembly Overheating Recall
1Fault

Not stated
Read the sentences of the record
- Cause
- Certain vehicles were built with fuel module reservoir assemblies that contain fuel pump wires and/or connectors that may overheat under certain operating conditions. Fuel pump wires that overheat may become exposed and result in one or more conditions; 1) If the ignition circuit wire is exposed and shorts to ground, the fuel pump fuse will blow, disabling the fuel pump and causing an engine stall or no-start condition. 2) If sufficient heat is conducted to the pass-through connector, a hole in the connector may result, which may cause the Service Engine Soon light to be illuminated during the emission system diagnostics routine. Fuel vapour (and in some limited cases liquid fuel) may leak out of the fuel tank through the hole in the connector body. 3) If the ignition circuit or ground wire is exposed and shorts to the fuel level sender card wires, inaccurate fuel level readings may result. Correction: Dealers will affect repairs.
