When beginning to drive forward after coming to a stop at an intersection. The vehicle will often stall in the middle of the intersection. Requiring me to switch it transmission into natural and restart it as it-??s rolling. I almost gotten rear ended many times I always get honked at. It just a matter of time before it causes an accident. It sometime happens after turning as well. I looked at forums on this gmc Yukon hybrid. And it looks like many other owners are asking the same question and nobody is coming up with any answers. Other customers say the dealer told them the hesitation is Normal. I took my truck into a local repair shop and he called me after three weeks saying it was done, but it still had the check engine light on and still is stalling out in intersections. Charge me $2000. This has been happening daily since I got the vehicle

The contact owns a 2008 GMC Yukon. While driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle stalled and the traction control and reduced engine power indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the fuel control module and the body control module were faulty and needed to be replaced. The technician replaced the fuel pump, but the failure recurred. The dealer (allen gwynn Chevrolet, glendale, ca, 844-636-8480) scheduled an appointment. When the contact arrived for the appointment, the technician stated that there was no recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that nothing could be done. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 115,000.

My vehicle experienced an electrical short in the fuel pump flow control module, causing the engine to stall while I was traveling around 70 mph on the freeway. I lost engine power, power braking, and power steering. I nearly had an accident when pulling off to the shoulder and braking. I am aware that there was a recall of the part that failed in GM bulletin 14515B. GM however informed me that my VIN was not covered under the recall. The defect in my fuel pump control module has been confirmed by my GMC authorized service center. I am looking for reimbursement of the $550 dollars I paid to sewell service to replace this component as it surely should have been covered in the recall.
