Could be. I drive for a living so I run it from F to E. Well twice I blew the O-ring out of the sensor at the top of the tank so any fuel in the neck leaked out. I was thinking it was the pressure every time I filled it up. Then I went through a fuel pump and the GM service tech actually told me it was heat build up because I frequently run it below half. He told me to KEEP 1/2 a tankit to cool the pump. CRAZY. BUT besides a front wheel bearing (and 2 sensors & 1 pump) the thing PURRED through 200k miles.

I seriously mean no offense because I get that your mad but.....
Dude... It's 11 yeas old and the glue came off the window. That's 100% on you. It's the cost of owning an older used car. If you don't have a car payment and have to spend a few hundred now and then don't complain. Go price a 2014 Yukon, Expedition,, etc... Then you'll gladly fix that window.

The window in the back is manual and operated with a pushbutton.
The auto glass company wouldn't touch it because they couldn't warrant a repair.
My Yukon is at 122000 miles so I'll get ready for the tranny rebuild! All things considered that's not bad mileage for a tranny.
Made the repair by removing the window and preping the area really good and slapping it all back together with JB Weld Clear Epoxy. The glue GMC used did not hold up and for whatever reason every single complaint deals with the passenger side only.
I have thought about buying Toyota!
I am not talking about a piece of molding come off the 10yr old Yukon and would understand no coverage to repair. It's the back glass for christs sake! The back glass should not come apart at any point in its life! Especially when it gets little to no use whatsoever. Whats next the other pieces of glass or the windshield.
This isn't the only problem I have had with this Yukon either.
Dash gauge potentiometers fualty causing the speed gauge to display different speeds while driving.
Battery died and caused the memory seat module to lose its software so dealer had to reload.
Auto dampers in ducts currently malfunction and cause hot air to blow rather than cold randomly.
Air indicator in tire is bad giving a low tire and needs air warning.
Then of course there's the back window that just fell off the hinge.

Worked at GM Doravile & GM Ft Wayne Ind it's a miracle any of them run or work.
You buy a Ford and a window will be the least of your worries!
Lol yeah you'll be sitting on side of road with it down.All 3 big automakers have had the bugs and recalls.
Agreed Echo1
All 3, Ford, GM, and Dodge are good trucks. I myself am a long time Blue Oval man. You can't build that many trucks every year and not have a few hiccups.
I would drive / buy either of the 3. I just prefer the looks of the Ford over the others. Recalls? they've all had them... their warranties have all been questionable
at times. I have also been contemplating going with the TRD on my next purchase... but with my Ford, it will be quite some time before I will have to worry about that.
She's a great truck!!! 2008 F150 4-Door XLT.

Right2Carry I feel the same, I drive an 03 Silverado with 223000+ miles and the only time I pop the hood is to change the oil, I think it's a matter of preference .
