UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The fabric on my headliner/ceiling is coming unglued or the clips are not holding it. It is a danger to my driving the car as it is continually loosening; which could potentially fall while I am driving the car. It is making an irritating squeaking noise which distracts my concentration from driving carefully. I took the car to Walker GMC in Alexandria, Louisiana. The mechanic and the service advisor both told me GMC has issued an instruction form on how to fix this problem as GMC has had complaints with this happening to the Acadias. I contacted GMC customer service. They will not let me know if they will cover the cost of the repair until I get an estimate. Walker is wanting to charge approximately $188 for the estimate. Since this is a safety issue, I am reporting this problem to your agency so that others may be protected and GMC will take care of this problem.

AIRBAG HAS BEEN RECALLED SINCE MAY 2023 AND HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED YET. THIS IS A SERIOUS RECALL, AND IT NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED NOW. IT IS RIDICULOUS THAT THE COMPANY KEEPS SAYING THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO REPAIR THIS FOR 9 MONTHS WHEN PEOPLE COULD DIE FROM THIS.

GMC has not repaired this life threatening air bag issue and states there is nothing they can do at this time. Why can't GMC replace the defective driver's air bag module and resolve this issue immediately. This can be a life or death scenario to drive this vehicle.

My safety and the safety of my family continues to be at risk due to GM’s failure to resolve this issue nearly a year after the recall was issued. I’ve been patient, but this is unacceptable to still have no timeline for resolution.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEATS
I was driving and all of a sudden my drivers seat started to move foward and down and then eventually reclined fully back and then stopped. Now my seat is permanently reclined. I could have been killed or seriously injured because the seat was moving while I was driving the car and I felt I could have been smushed into the steering wheel.

Shifter shifts to park but park will not engage. The vehicle chimes a warning that the vehicle is not in park. This was replaced by a GMC dealership under warranty in 2019. The problem has now came back. One of the parts ladies has the same year vehicle and replaced her in 2019 and just had to replace her again last month. The vehicle is out of warranty now and the dealership has not looked at the vehicle yet because my daughter drives it but she’s in college 5 hours away. There is no warnings both times this has happened.
