Electrical System · reported Nov 9, 2026
My 2025 GMC Yukon AT4 Ultimate (VIN [XXX]) has started its engine by itself at least three times when nobody commanded a start. Two of those unattended starts happened while the vehicle was parked in a closed residential garage, which creates a serious carbon monoxide risk to people in the home. I now park it outdoors until the cause is found. The most recent incident was XXX at 7:08 a.m. Central time. Occupants were asleep and nobody started it; both key fobs were accounted for. The myGMC app history shows a successful remote Start at 07:08 AM that none of us sent, followed by two failed Stop…

While driving my vehicle, i noticed no sound coming from infotainment, signaling or lights being able to turn on. After pulling over at the nearest gas station, i parked and turned the vehicle off and waited for 30 minutes. Soon after that time, i turned the vehicle on and sound came back. However, i noticed the fuel management system begin to soon immediately kick in hard and loud while i started to drive away. This caused a major concern because i was with my family and didn’t know if ok we were going to be able to make it to my daughter’s softball tournament and home safely.
