ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM, TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS
I BELIEVE I HAVE SOME TYPE OF ELECTRICAL ISSUE. I STARTED TESTING DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS SUCH AS THE DRIVER SEATBELT. I PURPOSELY DROVE SEVERAL MILES IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD WITH THE SEATBELT OVER ME, BUT NOT ENGAGED AND THE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON. MY AIRBAG SERVICE LIGHT CAME ONE FOR SERVICE, THEY SERVICED IT, IT CAME BACK ON, THEY REPLACED A SEATBELT COMPONENT, THE LIGHT WAS OFF, BUT CAME BACK ON, THEY DID ANOTHER REPLACEMENT AND THE LIGHT IS NOW OFF. MY FRONTEND WAS MAKING FUNNY NOISE WHEN MAKING TURNS, THEY REPLACED MY RACK AND PINION. MY SERVICE STABILITRAK LIGHT, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ONE, THEY FIXED IT, THEY CAME ON AGAIN, THEY KEPT MY VEHICLE FOR A DAY AND FIXED IT. THEY ARE BACK ON AGAIN ALONG WITH THE ABS LIGHT AND NOW I'M TOLD THAT I PROBABLY NEED A BREAK JOB. BREAKS WERE NOT MENTIONED THE OTHER TIMES. MY ELECTRONIC KEY PAD DETERIORATED AND NO LONGER WORKS, THEY SAID IT WAS USER HANDLING, MY OTHER KEY PAD IS NOT MALFUNCTIONING, YOU CAN SEE WERE THE PAD IS BEGINING TO SINK IN, BUT THEY SAID IT'S MY HANDLING. THE CASE IS CHIPPED AND THE CHIPPING HAS OCCURRED IN THE SAME PLACE ON BOTH KEY PADS. MY MIDDLE SEAT PASSENGER SIDE CASE CAME APART TWICE, EACH TIME THEY FIXED IT, IT'S NOW BROKEN, AND I WAS TOLD THEY DON'T REPAIR BROKEN PARTS. I AM STILL UNDER THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY, BUT GMC WILL NOT REPLACE MY KEY PADS, AND THE SERVICE TECH SAYS HE WILL TRY REALLY HARD TO GET MY SEAT COVERED. THE TINT ON MY WINDOWS HAVE BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES AND STILL IS NOT CORRECT. MY DVD PLAYER DOES NOT PLAY CORRECTLY AND HAS NOT BEEN FIXED SINCE IT'S BEEN IN MY VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE IS A 2009 ACADIA. I HAD A LEAK IN THE TRUNK, THEY FIXED THAT. AIR PRESSURE WILL NOT STAY CONSISTENT, WAS TOLD BY SERVICE ADVISOR TO OVER INFLATE TO COMPENSATE, WHICH IS DIFFERENT FROM WHAT THE OWNERS MANUAL STATES. TIRE PRESSURE ISSUES NEEDED SENSOR REPLACED AFTER SEVERAL TRIPS TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THE VEHICLE IS AN EXPENSIVE PIECE OF JUNK. *TR

STEERING
I OWN A 2007 GMC ARCADIA AND SOMETIMES WHEN I GO THROUGH WATER (IF IT'S BEEN A HEAVY RAIN) MY POWER STEERING DOES NOT WORK AND IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER THE CAR WHICH COULD BE A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. IT HAPPENED WHEN WE WERE ON VACATION AND WE STOPPED AT A AUTO REPAIR SHOP AND THE OWNER CAME OUT AND OPENED THE HOOD AND SHOWED MY HUSBAND THAT THE POWER STEERING SERPENTINE BELT SLIPPED. THERE IS NO COVERING OVER THE BELT AND WHEN IT GETS WET, IT CAN SLIP. WHEN WE EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED, THAT WE LOST THE POWER STEERING, HE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AS HE HAD OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. IF WE HAD BEEN ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, DOING 65 MILES AN HOUR IT COULD HAVE BEEN A TRAGEDY. IT ALSO HAPPENED AGAIN DURING THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY. *TR

EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL, POWER TRAIN
MY 2010 GMC ACADIA SLT ROLLS BACKWARD ON INCLINES EVEN THOUGH THE TRANSMISSION IS IN DRIVE. I HAVE DRIVEN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION VEHICLES FOR YEARS AND IN MY EXPERIENCE THEY ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO ROLL BACKWARD IN DRIVE. IF ANYONE IS BEHIND THE VEHICLE WHEN THIS OCCURS THEY COULD VERY WELL BE CRUSHED. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THIS IS NORMAL BEHAVIOR, BUT THIS IS NOT AND THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

STRUCTURE
I BOUGHT A 2007 GMC ACADIA BRAND NEW. RECENTLY HAVE BEEN HAVING SERIOUS WATER LEAKS ON PASSENGER SIDE. THE AREAS ARE THE SEATBELT AREA AND NEAR THE FLOORBOARD. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME IT RAINS AND HAPPENS RATHER QUICKLY IN THE FLOORBOARD AREA. SEVERAL TOWELS GET SOAKED WITHIN AN HOUR. MY FAMILY AND I ARE DEPENDENT ON THIS VEHICLE TO GET US TO SCHOOL AND WORK. FEELING VERY UNSURE OF PURCHASING FROM GM AGAIN DUE TO THE FACT I'VE READ SO MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS AND NO ACTION BEING TAKEN ON THEIR PART. MY YOUNG CHILDREN AND I DID LOVE THIS VEHICLE BUT NOW ARE SCARED TO GO OUT ANYWHERE WHEN IT IS RAINING. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
FOR THE LAST FEW WEEKS, THE FUEL LIGHT IN MY WIFE'S 2010 ACADIA WILL NOT GO OFF. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD US THERE WAS TOO MUCH ALCOHOL IN THE FUEL, @ 12%, AND IF IT REACHED 15%, THEY WOULD NEED TO DROP THE FUEL TANK. THEY SAID TO RUN A COUPLE OF TANKS OF 93 OCTANE THROUGH THE VEHICLE AND IT SHOULD CORRECT ITSELF. AFTER 8 TANKS OF 93 OCTANE AT $3/GALLON, THE LIGHT IT STILL ON. GAS STATIONS DO NOT READILY ADVERTISE OR DISPLAY THE % OF ALCOHOL IN THEIR FUEL, MUCH LESS IF ALCOHOL IS EVEN IN THE FUEL. IT SEEMS A BIT DISINGENUOUS ON THE PART OF GM TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE ACADIA, KNOWING HOW ALCOHOL IS USED IN FUEL THESE DAYS. WE PAID A LOT OF MONEY FOR THIS VEHICLE, BUT CAN'T AFFORD TO RUN 93 OCTANE THROUGH IT THE REST OF THE TIME WE OWN IT. I'VE BEEN A BIG SUPPORTER OF GM, BUT THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING AND INCREDIBLY DISAPPOINTING. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE BATTERY HAS DIED THREE DIFFERENT TIMES AFTER BEING DRIVEN THE NIGHT PRIOR. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE SHOP ONCE WHERE THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG, BUT THE BATTERY WAS LOW, THEY CHARGED IT. THE SECOND TIME (A WEEK LATER) I WAS TOLD THE BATTERY COULD NOT KEEP A CHARGE SO THEY GAVE ME A NEW ONE. NOW THREE MONTHS LATER, IT DIES AGAIN. WAITING TO HEAR WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO NOW. I CAN'T IMAGINE A CAR THAT IS A YEAR OLD CAN GO THROUGH TWO BATTERIES, NEEDING A THIRD.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
MY 2008 GMC ACADIA PASSENGER SIDE HEAD LIGHT WENT OUT ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO. I PURCHASED A REPLACEMENT LIGHT BULB AND TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC. WHEN HE TOOK APART THE COMPARTMENT WHERE THE LIGHT IS HE FOUND THAT THE WIRING HARNESS THAT PLUGS INTO THE BULB WAS COMPLETELY BURNED AND MELTED. THERE WAS NO WAY OF REPLACING THE WIRING HARNESS WITHOUT SPLICING THE WIRING AND INSTALLING AN AFTERMARKET CONNECTOR PART. THIS WEEKEND THE DRIVERS SIDE BULB WAS OUT AND AGAIN WE HAD IT TAKEN APART ONLY TO FIND THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM WITH THAT BULB. IN ADDITION HE CHECKED ON THE OTHER ONE JUST TO SEE HOW IT WAS WORKING AND FOUND THAT THE BULB IS AGAIN GETTING TOO HOT FOR THE WIRING AND WILL LIKELY BURN UP THE HARNESS AGAIN. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR 2 ELECTRICAL ISSUES, THE MOST RECENT BEING A CIRCUIT THAT COULD OVER HEAT AND CAUSE A FIRE. IN ADDITION TO THE HEADLIGHT ISSUES I HAVE HAD MY PASSENGER SIDE REAR WINDOW WONT ROLL DOWN AND THE POWER REAR HATCH HAS STARTED TO MALFUNCTION AND CLOSES AT RANDOM AND IF NOT CAREFUL WILL SMASH YOU IF YOU ARE UNDER IT. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
RECENTLY, WHEN LOADING THE CARGO AREA OF MY 08 GMC ACADIA, THE VEHICLE STARTED ROLLING FORWARD (THE IGNITION WAS OFF, AND IN "PARK"). IT ROLLED APPROXIMATELY 2 FT. BEFORE "PARK" ENGAGED. (MY 2 GRANDSONS WERE PLAYING IN MY DRIVEWAY A SHORT DISTANCE AWAY). AFTER HAVING THE VEHICLE CHECKED OUT AT THE GMC DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED THE SERVICE MGR TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A "NORMAL" CONDITION, ACCEPTABLE BY GM, THAT THE PARKING GEAR "PAWL" CAN ACTUALLY ROLL UP TO 2 FT. BEFORE ENGAGING. IT DOESN'T SEEM PROBABLE, OR EVEN POSSIBLE THIS CAN BE CONSIDERED TO BE A "SAFE" CONDITION. WHEN I ASKED WHO WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR INJURIES RESULTING FROM THIS SITUATION HIS RESPONSE WAS, "GM". *TR

POWER TRAIN, STEERING
I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2007 GMC ACADIA IN NOV. OF 2007. SINCE NEW IT HAS HAD A STEERING ISSUE THAT CAN NOT BE FIXED. THE RACK AND PINION HAS BEEN REPLACED AND THE VEHICLE HAS BURNED UP NUMEROUS POWERSTEERING PUMPS. THE STEERING, WHILE IN A CURVE, WILL LOCK UP AND THEN RELEASE THROWING THE VEHICLE IN THE DIRECTION THE WHEEL IS TURNED. IT HAS THROWN THE VEHICLE INTO THE OTHER LANE OF ON COMING TRAFFIC AS WELL AS THROWING THE VEHICLE OF THE ROAD INTO A FENCE. EACH TIME THE DEALERSHIP HAS PICKED THE VEHICLE UP REPLACED THE STEERING PUMPS BUT THE PROBLEM STILL REMAINS. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 47,000 MILES ON IT. THE TRANSMISSION LOCKED UP AND THE SHIFTING COMPONENTS WERE REPLACED, THEN THE TRANSMISSION LOCKED UP AND WAS REPLACED. THE STEERING ISSUE IS ARE MAIN CONCERN. IT WAS TAKEN IN ON 9/28/10 AND RECEIVED NEW TRANSMISSION AND POWERSTEERING PUMP. WE RECEIVED THE VEHICLE ON 10/25/2010. ON, 10/28/10 THE VEHICLE STEERING LOCKED UP AGAIN THROWING MY WIFE OFF THE ROAD INTO A FENCE. THERE IS NO WAY THAT GM HAS PUT THREE BAD POWER STEERING PUMPS ON THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS A MORE SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT IS BINDING THE STEERING CAUSING THE PUMPS TO BURN UP. THE SAME PROBLEM HAS MADE THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE DUE TO THE DANGER OF IT LOCKING UP AND THROWING THE VEHICLE INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE ALL SERVICE RECORDS REPORTING THIS ISSUE. I WILL NOT ALLOW MY BACK IN THIS VEHICLE AND I AM NOT COMFORTABLE TRADING IT IN FOR ANOTHER FAMILY TO BE KILLED IN IT. I COULD NOT LIVE WITH THAT. GM WILL DOING NOTHING ABOUT AS THEY HAVE BEEN CONTACTED. PLEASE HELP ME GET A REPLACEMENT FOR THIS VEHICLE (SAME YEAR MODEL TYPE AND EQUALLY EQUIPPED) AND GET THIS VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD. I COULD TRADE IT IN AS GM WANTS ME TOO AND THEY WILL GIVE ME $1600 OFF THE TRADE. BUT COULD NOT SLEEP AT NIGHT KNOWING I PUT SOMEONE ELSE AND THEIR FAMILIES IN DANGER WITH THIS VEHICLE.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
2010 ACADIA FRONT WHEEL DRIVE , WHEN IN DRIVE OR IN PARK ON INCLINE THE CAR WILL ROLL BACKWARD OR FORWARD DEPENDING ON WHICH WAY THE INCLINE IS. IT DOES NOT HOLD WHEN YOU MOVE YOUR FOOT FROM THE BRAKE TO THE ACCELERATOR WHILE SITTING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR WHEN YOU ARE PARKING. I HAVE HAD THE CAR BUMP A PASSENGER WHEN THEY WALKED AROUND THE FRONT OF MY CAR TO GET IN AND I HAD PLACED THE CAR IN PARK AND TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE.I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS AND VANS AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM AND IT OCCURS OFTEN AND THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS IGNORING THE PROBLEM. IF AN ELDERLY PERSON OR CHILD SHOULD HAPPEN TO BE CLOSE TO THE CAR WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS HARM. *TR
