NHTSA Recall History

2000 XL: Hydraulic pump driveshaft may fracture, resulting in immediate loss of power-steering assist; same condition could produce loss of assist from hydro-boost power brakes after reserve pressure is depleted, but neither condition totally eliminates the ability to steer or slow the vehicle.
2000-01 Yukon XL: Fuel pump wire connectors in reservoir may overheat under certain operating conditions; if ignition wire is exposed, fuse will blow, disabling fuel pump and causing engine stall or no-start condition.
2000-02 Yukon XL: In environmentally corrosive areas of specified "salt belt" states, unwanted antilock braking activation may occur, causing increased stopping distance during low-speed brake application.
2001: Misrouted positive-battery-cable assembly could come in contact with the steering-shaft universal joint. Over time, this contact could cause a wear-through of the cable-assembly conduit and cable insulation, exposing the wire core and resulting in intermittent electrical shorting or battery discharge.
2001: Outboard-seatbelt retractors for the 2nd and 3rd row of seats could be cracked. With repeated actuation of the locking mechanism, the crack could spread to the point such that the seatbelt would no longer lock.
2001: Rear wheelhouse plugs may be loose or missing, allowing exhaust gases to flow forward under certain conditions and accumulate in rear wheelhouse.
2002: Fingers can get pinched and trapped between the rear head restraints and the seatback when folding the seat down. Dealers will install protective covers.
2003 Yukon XL: In certain extreme impacts, frame cross member could tear fuel tank resulting in fuel leakage. Dealers will install a fuel-tank shield on affected vehicles.
2003-04 Yukon/ Yukon XL: Certain vehicles may have been produced with an out-of-specification brake relief valve, making steering difficult when braking. Dealers will inspect and replace affected parts.
2003-05 Yukon: Seatbelt routing for second-row center occupant may make it difficult to position the lap portion of the belt low around the occupant's hips.
2004-05 Yukon XL w/Bosch hydro-boost braking: Hydraulic brake booster pressure accumulator may crack and separate during normal operating conditions, possibly issuing fragments and allowing fluid leakage.
2005 Yukon XL: Brake-pedal pushrod retainer may be missing, which could result in loss of braking.
2005 Yukon XL: Under certain vehicle-starting conditions, shift-lever position indicator in instrument panel may not illuminate.
2005 Yukon XL w/5.3-liter V8: Engine fuel rail crossover tube retainer screws may break, allowing fuel leakage and possible engine stalling.
