Why is my truck stopping without pressing on the breaks

Asked by Mbeard88 Oct 04, 2020 at 12:35 PM about the 2005 GMC Yukon

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2005 GMC Yukon and when I let my foot
off the gas is starts stopping and will come to a
complete stop and stay stopped without pressing
on the breaks. It does this off and on and when it
starts doing it my dash says service stability. When
it is doing this it also seems like it is resistant when
I try to accelerate. What needs done to fix this
problem?

Sound like you have a caliper sticking, its essentially dragging on your rotor and wearing down all kinds of components and killing your mileage/momentum. That something that will cost you more to put off than to get taken care of immediately.

I Have A 07’ Yukon SLT. And I been Having battery drainage problems lately.. it will be working Fine than one minute I while get back in it to drive and it will be Dead! Get a jump, it comes back on and be fine for weeks than one day it just dies again? Not sure what’s wrong? But what I did find out is that the owner before me had Speakers hooked up and the loose Wirer's are still running under my seats and in my truck the other end of the wiRers that ran to the speaker is just thier live wirers with nothing hooked to it?
