What owners wrote

I had pulled out of a parking place and was waiting in the traffic lane to exit the area. There were two cars in front of us. The cars were stopped. I was approximately 20-25 feet behind the car in front of me. I took my foot off the brake in my car to let it idle forward. As I approached the yukon I reapplied the brake. The car accelerated to what sounded like full rpm's and I applied the brakes as hard as I could and nothing happened.

Since buying this vehicle the transmission and computer module have already been replaced once due to similar problem. While my son was driving around a corner on a city block so turning left at 15 miles per hour the transmission suffered a failure and error message and accelerated forcing him off the road. Dealer has denied any assistance.
