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

12 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 issuesSpeedometer needle appears inaccurate (specification +/- 2 MPH)1

  1. Manufacturer communication2003–2006 GMC YUKON DENALI ・ 2017-08-15

    Speedometer needle accuracy specification communication

    1. 1Fault

      • A customer may say the speedometer needle appears inaccurate.
    2. 2Finding the cause

      Possible causes

      • The speedometer needle is driven electrically by a stepper motor and some variation in accuracy is possible.
      • Tire size, tread life and inflation may cause some variation in the readings.

      Steps to confirm (in the document’s order)

      1. Digital readouts such as the "Digital Speedometer" on the DIC read the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) directly and are much more accurate.
      2. The specification for needle accuracy is +/- 2 MPH (= 3.22 km/h) at any given speed when looking straight at the needle.
    3. 3Correction

      This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician about vehicles that the speedometer needle appears to be inaccurate. Dealer should advise the customer the specification for speedometer needle accuracy is +/- 2 MPH (= 3.22 km/h) at any given speed when looking straight at the needle.

      What the documents say to do

      Speedometer needle appears inaccurate (specification +/- 2 MPH)

      Confirm

      • The needle accuracy specification is +/- 2 MPH (= 3.22 km/h) at any given speed when looking straight at the needle.

      Caution

      • Tire size, tread life and inflation may cause some variation in the readings.
