STEERING
WHEN TURNING INTO A PARKING SPOT OR DRIVEWAY, SLOW SPEEDS, STEERING LOSES POWER. HAS DONE THIS AS LONG AS I HAVE OWNED IT AND KEEPS GETTING WORSE. IT ALSO HAS A POPPING NOISE WHEN TURNING. WHAT IM READING IS THERE ARE ALOT OF COMPLAINTS OF THIS MATTER. *TR

POWER TRAIN
TRANSMISSION FAILURE. WE WERE DRIVING OUT OF TOWN ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH AND ENGINE SUDDENLY REVVED INDICATING THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS DISENGAGED. COULD NOT ACCELERATE AND HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE. THERE WAS NO WARNING OF THE IMPENDING FAILURE OTHER THAN SOME TRANSMISSION SLIPPAGE EARLIER IN THE TRIP. TRANSMISSION DID NOT WORK AT ALL IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. HAD TO BE TOWED TO AN OUT OF TOWN SHOP AND RENT A CAR TO GET BACK HOME. REPAIR SHOP STATED THAT TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED (APPROX. $4,500) AND THAT IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM. SHOCKING THAT IT FAILED AT SUCH LOW MILEAGE. WE WERE ADVISE BY OUR LOCAL REPAIR SHOP TO CONTACT GM BUT THEY HAVE NOT CONTACTED US BACK. WE HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO GET THE REPAIRS DONE SO WE HAVE THE VEHICLE BACK. I JUST WANTED TO INCLUDE OUR INCIDENT ALONG WITH THE MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS. WE WILL WARN OTHER ACADIA OWNERS WHO WE KNOW OF THE PROBLEM (ACADIAS ARE COMMON WHERE WE LIVE) AND THE MANY OTHER PROBLEMS THAT IT HAS (BASED ON THE NUMEROUS OTHER COMPLAINTS AND SERVICE BULLETINS). *TR

ENGINE
WHILE ON VACATION THE WEEKEND OF AUGUST 15-17, OUR VEHICLE'S CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WE TOOK IT TO THE GARAGE ON 8-26-14. AFTER 2 1/2 DAYS OF DIAGNOSING THE VEHICLE, THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED US WE HAD 2 BENT RODS IN CYLINDER 3 AND 4. WE CONTACTED GM TO OPEN A CASE STUDY. THE DEALERSHIP CALLED US AND ASKED US WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR AS A RESOLUTION. WE FELT THAT WITH ONLY 43,000 MILES ON IT, OUR VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE HAVING SUCH DRASTIC ENGINE ISSUES. FURTHERMORE, THE ENGINE/TIMING COVER WAS ALREADY REPLACED AT 23,118 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP ASKED US TO VERIFY THAT THE VEHICLE HAD NO FLOOD HISTORY, GET DETAILS OF THE WARRANTY PROVIDED BY THE DEALER FROM WHOM WE PURCHASED IT, AND PROVIDE MAINTENANCE RECORDS. WE DID THAT. THE DEALERSHIP FIRST TOLD US THEY WOULD GIVE US $1,000 OFF A NEW VEHICLE (REALLY?). WE SAID WE STILL HAD A LOAN AND PAYMENT. THEY ADVISED US THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO COME CLOSE TO OUR CURRENT PAYMENT. WHEN WE SPOKE WITH THEM NEXT, THEY ADVISED THAT GM WOULD NOT BE PROVIDING ANY ASSISTANCE AND THAT THEY THINK NOW IT IS JUST A VALVE ISSUE. HOW CAN YOU GO FROM 2 BENT RODS TO A VALVE ISSUE? WE TOLD THE DEALERSHIP TO PUT THE VEHICLE BACK TOGETHER; WE WERE COMING TO GET IT. WE TOWED IT HOME. WE CONTACTED GM AGAIN TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT A BAD EXPERIENCE WE HAD WITH A DEALERSHIP THAT KEPT CHANGING THEIR STORY ABOUT WHAT GM WAS GOING TO DO TO HELP AND WHAT OUR PROBLEMS WERE. THEY ADVISED US WE COULD TAKE IT TO ANOTHER GARAGE AND HAVE ALL THE DIAGNOSTICS DONE AGAIN (AT OUR EXPENSE). THEN THE DEALERSHIP COULD CONTACT THEM TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY COST ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE. THEY SAID THAT SINCE WE DIDN'T BUY OUR VEHICLE FROM A GM DEALER AND DIDN'T SERVICE IT AT A GM DEALER (WE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE PRIOR TO THIS), WE WOULDN'T SCORE HIGH FOR COST ASSISTANCE FROM GM. WE AREN'T THE ONLY ONE IN THIS SITUATION ACCORDING TO RESEARCH. HELP! *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, STEERING
BEGAN HEARING WHINING NOISE AND THOUGHT IT WAS IN THE ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION. TOOK IT TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE POWER STEERING PUMP AND RACK AND WAS NOT COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. I JUST HAD THE "NUMEROUS" RECALLS REPAIRED AND NOW THIS. ACCORDING TO MANY POSTS ON VARIOUS WEBSITES, THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH GM PRODUCTS. REPAIRS ARE COSTLY AND SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, OR SHOULD BE RECALLED! THIS IS RIDICULOUS CONSIDERING THE COST OF THESE VEHICLES. *TR

VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY, STRUCTURE
JUST PURCHASED 2007 GMC ACADIA 2 WEEKS AGO AND DISCOVERED A MAJOR SUNROOF LEAK. THE LEAK IS VERY BAD. THEN I FOUND OUT THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM FOR THIS MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE NOW I AM STUCK WITH A VEHICLE THAT I AM MAKING PAYMENTS ON WITH A PROBLEM THAT I'M SURE WILL LEAD TO OTHER MAJOR PROBLEMS. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE
I HAVE BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN BEFORE OUR TRIP TO MASSACHUSSETTS TO THE GM DEALER IN HASTINGS, MN AS THE STOP ENGINE NOW/FUEL PRESSURE LIGHT KEPT COMING ON ALL THE TIME. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT IS PROBABLY JUST A SENSOR ISSUE. SO I DROVE MY CAR. IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS MORE LIGHTS CAME ON SUCH AS TRACTION CONTROL IS OUT, STABILIZATION NEEDS ATTENTION, BREAKS NEED ATTENTION, AND CHECK ENGINE. SO THEY FIGURED JUST MORE SENSOR ISSUE. 9/9/14 I WAS BACKING OUT A PARKING SPOT WITH A FRIEND OF MINE AND MY POWER STEERING WAS DISABLED AND ALMOST CAUSED AND ACCIDENT WHEN THE BREAK SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON. FINALLY MY HUSBAND TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER TO FIND THAT NOW I NEED A NEW TIMING CHAIN AND UPDATES $2045, TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE W/SOLENOID $1226.58, AND MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER $690.00. THEY SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT THIS BEFORE AS GM IS WELL AWARE OF THE ISSUES ACCORDING TO COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND THE SERVICE MAN WHO TOLD ME HE SEES THIS A LOT. I NOTICED THERE IS A RECALL ON 2007 AND 2009 FOR SEVERAL OF THESE ISSUES. HAD I NOT HAVE MY HUSBAND BRING THIS IN AGAIN I AM SURE THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A SEVERE ACCIDENT INVOLVING ME AND POSSIBLY MY CHILDREN. GM OFFERED TO PAY FOR HALF THE SERVICES BUT HONESTLY THEY KNOW THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THEIR MODEL. TO TELL PEOPLE NOTHING IS WRONG, NOTHING IS WRONG AND BAM EVERYTHING WRONG AT JUST 120K MILES SEEMS FISHY. I WANT THIS FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I HAVE A FRIEND WITH THE SAME MODEL WITH MANY OF THE SAME ISSUES. THIS IS NOT FAIR TO LEAVE CONSUMERS IN THE DARK CONSIDERING THIS IS VEHICLE MOSTLY USED BY FAMILIES. *TR

STEERING
I FILED MY INITIAL COMPLAINT OVER THE PHONE BUT I'D LIKE TO ADD A FEW MORE DETAILS. AFTER GETTING NOWHERE WITH GMC CORPORATE I DID MY OWN RESEARCH UNCOVERING THERE IS A "CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT" (I HAVE THIS DOCUMENT AND CAN FORWARD IF NEEDED) IN PLACE FOR MULTIPLE GMC VEHICLES FOR THE STEERING ISSUE. GMC HAS PUBLICLY ADMITTED TO INSTALLING WRONG SIZE POWER STEERING PUMP! IN ADDITION, THE POWER STEERING CABLE, A LOOSE RIVET IN STEERING COLUMN, POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKING, AND/OR NO OR LOW PRESSURE ALL HAVE BEEN THE SITED AS A "POSSIBLE" CAUSE! *MY POINT BEING FIXING ALL OF THESE ISSUES WILL COST OWNERS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND MOST DON'T HAVE THIS MONEY. GMC NEEDS TO RECALL THIS ISSUE ASAP! GMC HAS RECALLED NUMEROUS OTHER NON-LIFETHREATENING ISSUES WITH THEIR VEHICLES. LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHEN TURNING LEFT ON A MAIN ROAD OR AT ANY OTHER TIME CAN AND WILL RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR FATALITY!! THIS IS SERIOUS AND NEEDS TO BE MADE A PRIORITY ADDRESSED ASAP! *TR

STEERING
I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE WHEN I CAME TO AN INTERSECTION TO TURN. WHEN I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL IT WAS MAKING A RUBBING NOISE. I NOTIFIED THE DEALER, AND THEY SAID TO BRING IT IN. THE VEHICLE WAS PASSED ITS WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THE ISSUE WAS THAT THE STEERING GEAR WAS GOING BAD AND NEEDED REPLACING. I WAS TOLD THAT IF I DID NOT REPLACE IT AT THAT TIME, IN THE FUTURE THERE WOULD BE A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE TO THE GEAR WHICH WOULD ALSO DAMAGE THE STEERING PUMP AND I WOULD NOT HAVE POWER STEERING. THE QUOTE WAS $1,600 TO REPLACE THE STEERING GEAR AND BUSHINGS. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DOUBLE THAT IF I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE STEERING PUMP. THE STEERING GEAR SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED AT 63K MILES! *TR

ENGINE
I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH A STEADY ACCELERATION. I NOTICED THE CAR START TO SHAKE A LITTLE AND THE TACHOMETER FLUTTERING UNTIL IT APPEARED THE CAR DOWN SHIFTED. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND FOUND NO PROBLEMS. THE NEXT WEEKEND A LONG TRIP THE VEHICLE WAS DOING THE SAME THING. I NOTICED IT MORE ON SLIGHT INCLINES WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON. AT ONE POINT MY BROTHER DRIVING BEHIND ME SAID HE SAID A PUFF OF BLACK SMOKE COME OUT OF THE EXHAUST PIPE. I NOTICED THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WAS FLASHING AT TIMES. TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY SAID THE VEHICLE HAD CODES P0300 AND P0303. THEY REPLACED THE #3 IGNITION COIL. SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, MY TOTAL BILLS WERE $623. I SHOULD NOT HAVE HAD TO REPLACE AN IGNITION COIL AT 60K MILES! *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEATS, SEAT BELTS, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE FOR A WHILE NOW. THE CAR WILL CUT OFF IN TRAFFIC I HAVE GOTTEN STUCK IN THE SEATBELT AS WELL AS TODAY WHILE I AM TRYING TO MAKE A LEFT THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AS I WAS HITTING THE GAS PEDAL I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO [XXX] ON ANOTHER OCCASION BECAUSE I HAD JUST LEFT THE GAS STATION FILLING THE TANK UP I GOT IN THE TRUCK PULLED OUT OF THE GAS STATION AND THE GAS GAUGE STARTED GOING UP AND DOWN MY OVERHEAD LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE CAR JUST DIED OUT IN 45 MPH TRAFFIC I TOOK IT IN AND ALL THEY KEEP TELLING ME IS IF THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM THEY CAN NOT HELP ME HOW IS THIS SAFE NUMBER ONE NUMBER TWO I DO NOT KNOW WHEN THE VEHICLE IS GOING TO CUT OFF. I HAVE HAD THE SPEEDOMETER JUST GO UP AND DOWN AS I'M DRIVING AS WELL AS THE RADIO WOULD JUST START TO SHIFT FROM AUXILIARY TO CD TO RADIO WITHOUT EVER BEING TOUCHED. IF I HIT A POTHOLE LIGHTS START FLASHING THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. BUT I'M BEING TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE BECAUSE THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM HOW IS THIS ON MY SHOULDERS I'M PAYING FOR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT IS NOT WORTH THE PAPER IT'S PRINTED ON. IT HAS TO BE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT OR SOMETHING THEY JUST DO NOT WANT TO REPAIR. BUT I CAN NOT KEEP PUTTING MY FAMILIES LIVES IN DANGER DRIVING THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY SAY THEY CAN NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND GMC WILL NOT HELP.

I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE A TRANSMISSION ON A CAR WITH JUST OVER 55000 MILES. THE WINDOWS LEAK WHEN SITTING OUTSIDE IN THE RAIN. THE POWER STEERING LOCKS UP WHEN YOU DRIVE THRU A PUDDLE. THE BRAKING SYSTEM MAKES SOME GOD AWFUL NOISE WHEN GOING ON OR OFF A RAMP. THIS WAS OUR VERY FIRST BRAND NEW OFF THE LINE CAR. REALLY WISH WE HAD WAITED UNTIL THE BUGS WERE WORKED OUT. *TR

STEERING
WAS TURNING LEFT INTO A PARKING LOT AND THERE WAS NO ASSIST FROM THE POWER STEERING. IT WAS ALMOST AS IF IT WAS LOCKING UP. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN OCCURRING SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK SINCE THEN, USUALLY AT LOW SPEEDS. THERE HAVE BEEN A COUPLE OF CLOSE CALLS TO HITTING OTHER VEHICLES AS THIS ISSUE SURFACES WITH NO WARNING. I ASKED LAFONTAINE IN HIGHLAND MI TO LOOK AT IT WHEN I WAS HAVING WATER PUMP ISSUES. IT SEEMS THERE WAS NO TRUE INVESTIGATION ON THE ISSUE, JUST THAT IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO CHANGE THE R&P, EVEN THOUGH THAT MAY NOT BE THE ISSUE. I ISSUED A COMPLAINT TO GM CUSTOMER SERVICE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE SHOP AGAIN FOR A TRANSMISSION MODULE REPLACEMENT. AGAIN, NO CONCERN FROM GM THAT THE STEERING FAILS WITHOUT WARNING. LOSS OF STEERING IS A VERY BIG SAFETY CONCERN. I AM TRYING TO SELL OR TRADE IN THE VEHICLE AS I DO NOT FEEL SAFE HAVING MY WIFE AND KISS IN THE CAR. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE:BODY, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THERE IS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD WITH THE DAYLIGHT RUNNING LIGHTS OVERHEATING BEFORE THEY BURN OUT ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. THE BULB GETS SO HOT THAT THEY MELT THE BULB SOCKET CAUSING AN ELECTRICAL FIRE HAZARD. THE HEAT ALSO HAS MADE THE HEADLIGHT HOUSING BRITTLE AND CRACKED TO WHERE THE SOCKET WONT STAY IN PLACE INSIDE THE HEADLIGHT HOUSING THUS CAUSING THE BULB TO LAY ON THE PLASTIC CAUSING A FIRE HAZARD. GENERAL MOTORS KNOWS ABOUT THIS FIRE HAZARD BECAUSE I HAVE CALLED IT TO THERE ATTENTION AND BECAUSE THEY HAVE A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM #13135. THEY HAVE ALSO RECALLED SOME 2007 AND 2009 TO 2011 VEHICLES BUT NOT 2008 WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
