AFTER A TOTAL OF 19 VISITS TO THE GMC SERVICE DEPARTMENT WITH NO RESULTS MIRROR STILL VIBRATES ARBITRATION THROUGH THE BBB WAS ATTEMPTED ON 10-4-02. RESULTS IN FAVOR OF GMC ARBITRATOR AGREED MIRROR IS MFG DEFECT, BUT PROVIDED NO ASSISTANCE IN GETTING IT REPAIRED. OTHER 2002 LIKE VEHICLES WERE TESTED AND FOUND TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS DEFECT IS MAKE/MODEL WIDE! ALL I WANT IS THE MIRROR VIBRATION TO STOP. I REALLY DON'T EVEN USE THE MIRROR ANYMORE CREATING A SAFETY HAZARD. DT

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE HIGH-BEAM INDICATOR LIGHT (BLUE) IS EXTREMELY BRIGHT AND IS SO AIMED AS TO SHINE DIRECTLY INTO THE EYES OF THE DRIVER. THIS CAUSES A SIGNIFICANT DISTRACTION DUE TO THE LIGHT SHINING DIRECTLY AT THE LEFT EYE AND ALSO GREATLY REDUCES THE VISIBILITY THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD DUE TO THE ADDITIONAL LIGHT. THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED TO GMC VIA THE DEALER AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE LIGHT IS PART OF A CLUSTER AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO FIX IT. THIS LIGHT IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE REMEDIED. DT

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE
ON COLD STARTS THE ENGINE PRODUCES LOUD RAPPING SOUND AS IF RUNNING ON NO OIL. GMC HAS BEEN NOTIFIED, BUT IT IS DEEMED A NORMAL OPERATING SOUND, AND WILL NOT SHORTEN THE ENGINE LIFE. THEY NEVER MADE ANY ATTEMPT TO FIX PROBLEM, JUST OFFERED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON CERTAIN PARTS. IT REALLY MAKES ME WONDER HOW THEY KNOW WHAT PARTS TO COVER ON THE EXTENDED WARRANTY IF THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE ENGINE? DT

I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER IN HANOVER AND THEY SAID IT WOULD BE OVER $1000.00. THAT I WOULD BE BETTER OFF LEAVING THE FUSE OUT SO MUCH FOR ABS. DT
