I've now gone thru 2 of these on my Yukon XL 1500. First one drilled thru the case at 59K mile. Dealer replace the rear half of the case and the clip. Failed again this weekend, 25K after the first repair, but much more catastrophically, pumping most of the fluid out. Dealer scratched his head and said "Gee, never seen them fail twice before" Yeah right, this thread would seem to say otherwise. Don't beat on the truck - occasional light towing (less than 10% of overall mileage) 99% of 4X use is paved roads in snow, again less than 10% of overall mileage. Anybody have any luck pushing GM to cover some of the cost on this? It *clearly* a poor design.
