STEERING
AT APPROX. 62,000 POWER STEERING STARTED MAKING A WHINING NOISE THAT KEPT GETTING LOUDER AND LOUDER. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPAIRED/REPLACED THE RACK THAT THEY SAID WAS STARTING TO GO BAD. IT WAS COVERED UNDER THE GM CERTIFIED USED WARRANTY AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THESE AND SHOULD BE ALL SET. NOW, ABOUT A YEAR LATER (WARRANTY EXPIRED-POWER STEERING IS NOT CONSIDERED POWERTRAIN...) THE SAME NOISE AND HIGH EFFORT TO TURN STEERING WHEEL IS HAPPENING AGAIN. THEY NOW SAY THAT THE POWER STEERING PUMP IS GOING AND THERE IS A BLOWN GASKET IN THE STEERING COLUMN CAUSING A LEAK OF STEERING FLUID WHICH IS CAUSING THE WHINE. THEY SAY THAT THE REPAIR IS GOING TO COST ME OVER $750. GMC NEEDS TO ANNOUNCE A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE, OR AT LEAST ISSUE A NOTICE FOR DEALERS TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE WHEN IT ARISES. I'M ONE OF THE LUCKY ONES THAT DID NOT HAVE THE SYSTEM FAIL WHEN DRIVING. I COULD PROBABLY RECOVER IF IT DID, I'M JUST GLAD MY WIFE WASN'T DRIVING IT WITH MY CHILDREN WHEN IT DECIDED TO FAIL!! I KNOW OF AT LEAST TWO OTHER OWNERS THAT HAD THIS SAME ISSUE, WHEN WILL GM STEP UP AND TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE?!?! *JS

AIR BAGS, STEERING
OUR VEHICLE HAS HAD THE AIR BAG SERVICE LIGHT ON FOR A VERY LONG TIME, WHEN WE GOT THE RECALL NOTICE, WE TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT OUR VEHICLE WAS FINE AND OUR LIGHT WAS CAUSED BY A DIFFERENT PROBLEM. AS TIME HAS GONE BY, IT HAS DONE THE REST OF THE ITEMS LISTED ON THE RECALL SUCH AS ON/OFF LIGHT REMAINING OFF WITH A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT AND NOW IT ACTUALLY FLASHES BACK AND FORTH WITH OR WITHOUT A PASSENGER. OUR POWER STEERING HAS BEEN MAKING A WHINE SOUND SINCE 2009. IT HAS ONLY WORSENED OVER TIME AND NOW HAS DEPRECIATED OUR VEHICLES VALUE FOR A TRADE-IN. WE ARE COMPLETELY DISSATIFIED WITH THE QUALITY OF VEHICLE WE HAVE GOTTEN. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND AN ACADIA BASED ON THE RELIABILITY OF GMC AND THE LACK OF RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX PROBLEMS THAT ARE OBVIOUSLY ON THE MANUFACTURING END. WE KNOW SEVERAL OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH 2008 ACADIA AND HAVE FOUND MANY FORUMS OF PEOPLE DISCUSSING THEIR ISSUES AND IT APPEARS THAT THE 2008 HAS THE GREATEST AMOUNT OF ISSUES. WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED TO SEEK LEGAL ACTION. *JS

STEERING
THE POWER STEERING RANDOMLY FAILS AT LOW SPEEDS. THIS HAS CREATED SEVERAL HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS WHILE MAKING LEFT HAND TURNS WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND RIGHT HAND TURNS AT INTERSECTIONS WITH WAITING TRAFFIC ON THE ADJACENT STREET. THE CAR WAS REPAIRED AT A LOCAL SHOP BY REPLACING THE POWER STEERING PUMP. I WAS TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THE NEW PUMP IS A MORE ROBUST DESIGN. THE COST FOR THE OUT-OF-WARRANTY REPAIR WAS ABOUT $850. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, POWER TRAIN, VISIBILITY
I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE WASHER FLUID LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON, NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE TAKEN IT FOR REPAIR THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT 8 MONTHS AFTER THE VEHICLE THREE MONTHS LATER AT THIS PRESENT TIME. AFTER HAVING THE VEHICLE FOR NOT EVEN A YEAR, THE TRANSMISSION HAS GIVEN OUT BEYOND REPAIR. I HAVE GOTTEN SEVERAL DIFFERENT PEOPLE TO LOOK AT IT, ITS BEYOND REPAIR (REBUILD). I HAVE DONE A LOT OF RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS I REALLY HOPE THIS HELPS, I DON'T THINK THE CUSTOMERS SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR OF THIS CONSTANT PROBLEM. *TR

POWER TRAIN
MY FAMILY OF 6 WAS LEAVING SW FLORIDA THIS MORNING TO DRIVE BACK TO OHIO. ABOUT AN HOUR INTO OUR TRIP I BEGAN TO PASS A SEMI WHEN THE TRANSMISSION ON MY '07 GMC ACADIA LOCKED UP. THE TACH WAS PEGGED AT 4500 BUT THERE WAS NO RESPONSE FROM THE ACCELERATOR. IM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT OTHER DRIVERS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE DUE TO THE LACK OF ANY ACCELERATION. I CONSIDER MYSELF TO BE AN EXPERIENCED DRIVER, BUT TRYING TO STEER A DYING CAR THROUGH 4 LANES OF 70MPH TRAFFIC WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY ANSWERING MY WIFE AND 4 KIDS QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING WAS QUITE SCARY. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS SOON. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
WHILE AT WYATT JOHNSON DEALERSHIP TO BUY CAR, SALESPERSON, [XXX], STATES THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE PLASTIC PIECES ATTACHED TO FLOOR MATS. STATES HE NEEDS TO ORDER THEM AND BRING CAR BACK IN. LESS THAN WEEK LATER, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. THEY KEPT CAR FOR A FEW WEEKS BECAUSE THEY STATE THEY NEEDED TO ORDER A PART THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE IN. FINALLY PICKED UP CAR TO REALIZE THERE WAS SO MANY MILES ON IT THAT I THOUGHT IT WAS NOT THE ACADIA WE BOUGHT, OR THEY SET IT UP ON A DOLLY TO LET TIRES ROTATE TO HIKE THE MILES. THEY KNEW WE WERE MOVING SOON, MILITARY, AND DID NOT HAVE TIME TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. WITHIN A 100 MILES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. LONG STORY SHORT, THIS HAPPENED TIME AND TIME AGAIN WHERE DEALERSHIP WOULD HAVE CAR FOR WEEKS WITH US TO DRIVE AROUND A $5000 LOANER VEHICLE WHILE MAKING PAYMENTS ON A $40,000 VEHICLE. BECAUSE WE WERE NOT STATIONED AS SAME STATE AS WHERE WE BOUGHT IT, NO GMC DEALERSHIP WOULD TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK AS A LEMON. TWICE WE RAN FROM THE VEHICLE FEARING FOR OUR LIFE BECAUSE IT STALLED, SMOKED, AND HAD THE SMELL OF GAS IN THE CABIN AREA. NO DEALERSHIP AT NEW DUTY STATION WOULD TAKE THE CAR BACK WITHOUT SEVER PENALTIES, AND SAID WE WOULD NEED TO RETURN IT TO THE STATE WE BOUGHT IT IN ORDER TO TURN IT IN AS A LEMON, HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE FROM FLORIDA TO TENNESSEE. KEEP IN MIND THE CAR WENT IN AND OUT OF SHOP 8-10 TIMES WITH THEM KEEPING THE VEHICLE WEEKS AT A TIME. WE PAID $680 WITH 0% INTEREST RATE A MONTH FOR THE CAR TO SIT AT THE DEALERSHIPS. FRUSTRATED, WE TOLD THE DEALERSHIPS IN MELBOURNE FL AND ALLY FINANCIAL WE WERE TOO SCARED TO DRIVE IT, NOTHING THE REPAIRMEN DID HELPED THE GAS SMELL OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, AND THEY COULD TOW IT OFF OUR DRIVEWAY. ON A CAR FAX REPORT, IT SHOWS A TITLE CHANGE OCCURRED DURING THE TIME THEY KEPT IT. I FEEL SORRY FOR WHOEVER BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE.

STRUCTURE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I EXPERIENCED WATER LEAKING AND RUNNING DOWN THE INSIDE OF BOTH OF THE FRONT DOORS. IN ADDITION, THE DASH LIGHTS FADED IN AND OUT INTERMITTENTLY, THE CLOCK LOSES TIME, THE NAV AND RADIO SCREEN BLACKS OUT, AND THE STABILITY TRAK SERVICE LIGHT COMES ON. THEY "FIXED" THE WATER LEAK BY EXTENDING THE DRAIN HOSES ON THE SUNROOF. ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WERE FOUND TO BE RELATED TO THE LEAKS IN THE SUNROOF. ON SEPT. 18THE OF THE SAME YEAR, I RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO HAVE A RECALL ON THE SUNROOF DRAINS PERFORMED. I ADVISED THAT I WAS STILL HAVING THE SAME ELECTRICAL ISSUES. A DIMMER SWITCH WAS ORDERED. ON FEB. 20, 2012 I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND HEARD A FAINT PINGING NOISE LIKE A DYING SMOKE ALARM EMITTING FROM THE PASSENGER DASH AREA. I TOOK IT TO A GMC CENTER AND WAS TOLD THAT WATER HAD LEAKED BEHIND THE DASH, CAUSING CORROSION AND A SHORT IN THE IP FUSE BOX. I HAD TO PAY ALMOST $1,000 TO HAVE THE LEAK SEALED (DESIGN FLAW) AND HAD TO HAVE A NEW ELECTRICAL BLOCK INSTALLED. I CALLED AND COMPLAINED TO GM THAT I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR DAMAGE THAT RESULTED FROM 1) A POOR DESIGN AND 2) DAMAGE THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED SINCE I HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE IN TWICE ON PRIOR LEAKS WHICH WERE SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN FIXED. IT HAS BEEN THREE WEEKS AND I AM STILL GETTING THE RUN AROUND FROM GM. NOW THEY CLAIM IT WASN'T THE SUNROOF LEAKING, BUT THE DOOR. A LEAK IS A LEAK AND IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN CHECKED ON THE PRIOR SERVICE VISITS. APPARENTLY THE LEAKING HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR QUITE SOMETIME. I SEE THAT OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME BAD EXPERIENCE. HERE WE BAILED OUT A COMPANY THAT WON'T BACK UP ITS PRODUCT. *TR

STEERING
THERE HAS BEEN A WHINE IN MY STEERING COLUMN ON MY 2007 GMC ACADIA . YESTERDAY I WAS DRIVING ALONG A 2 LANE ROAD GOING INTO A SHARP CURVE. I WAS TURNING MY STEERING COLUMN TO THE RIGHT TOWARDS THE CURVE, BUT THE STEERING COLUMN MADE A LOUD NOISE AND WOULD NOT RESPOND ALMOST CAUSING ME TO HIT HEAD ON INTO AN INCOMING CAR ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CAR FINALLY DID RESPOND AND A WRECK AVOIDED, BUT THAT IS NOT THE POINT. THERE ARE NUMEROUS FORUMS ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR THING HAPPENING TO OTHER GMC ACADIAS AS WELL. THE POWER STEERING GOING OUT IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER THEIR 100,000 MILE WARRANTY. I TOOK MY CAR TO A AUTO REPAIR SHOP AND THEY INDICATED THAT THE POWER STEERING PUMP WAS INDEED LEAKING AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THESE "INCIDENTS" NEED TO BE ADDRESSED AND A RECALL PUT IN PLACE IMMEDIATELY ON THE ACADIA. THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOT WANTED TO TAKE CARE OF ANYTHING UNDER WARRANTY UNLESS MY VIN MATCHED THE ONE ON A PARTICULAR RECALL EVEN WHEN I WAS HAVING THE EXACT PROBLEMS IN THE RECALL. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE:BODY
BOUGHT OUR GMC ACADIA DEC. 2011 HAD NO ISSUES TILL JAN 2012. SINCE THEN IT HAS BEEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP REPEATEDLY FOR SEEMINGLY LINKED PROBLEMS. STARTED WITH JUST A DEAD BATTERY UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT THE WIRING HARNESS WAS SUBMERGED IN WATER, CAUSING BATTERY TO SHORT OUT, REPLACED THE BATTERY AND FIXED THE APPARENT POINT OF ENTRY. NOT TWO WEEKS LATER BACK IN THE SHOP, WATER POURING FROM THE HEAD LINER (AROUND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS, SUNROOF MOLDINGS, AND SEAT BELT JOINTS). OUR ACADIA REMAINED AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR THREE DAYS WITH NO LUCK OF FINDING A LEAK (CHECKED ALL DRAIN LINES AND RAN THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE WATER MACHINE). HERE WE ARE AGAIN VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE SHOP FOR A WEEK WITH NO LUCK OF FINDING THE POINT OF INTRUSION; THIS TIME THE WATER LEAK SHORTED OUT THE ENTIRE FUSE PANEL. AFTER TRYING TO FIND THE LEAK FOR OVER A WEEK, SENDING THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER SHOP TO "GET A FRESH SET OF EYES ON IT", AND CONTACTING GM FOR ADVISE (WHICH WAS NO HELP) THE DEALERSHIP STILL HAS BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL IN LOCATING THE WATER LEAK. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT. ALL I KNOW IS WE BOUGHT A $30,000.00 CAR SO WE WOULDN'T HAVE PROBLEMS AND HERE WE ARE WITH PROBLEMS, EXPENSIVE PROBLEMS. *TR

PPS MODULE BAD. WE GOT A LETTER FROM GMC THAT THE AIRBAG WIRES/CONNECTOR TERMINAL PINS MAY BE CORRODED. SOON AFTER WE GOT THE NOTICE, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT STARTED COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY. WE TOOK THE ACADIA IN TO DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THE CONNECTORS ARE OK BUT NOW THE PASSENGER PRESENCE MODULE NEEDS REPLACED. OF COURSE NOT UNDER WARRANTY. WHEN WE LEFT THE DEALERSHIP NOW THE LIGHT IS ON FULL TIME AND WON'T TURN OFF. WHEN I ASKED WHY THE LIGHT IS ON FULL TIME THEY SAID NOW THAT THEY SCANNED THE CODES IT MAY HAVE CAUSED IT TO STAY ON. *TR
