AS I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE YESTERDAY AFTER IT WAS RAINING, THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR LEAKED WATER. I WAS TOLD BY MY GMC DEALERSHIP THAT THE VISOR IS LEAKING DUE TO THE ANTENNA ON THE TOP OF MY VEHICLE. (I DO NOT HAVE A SUN ROOF) SO, MY HEADLINER IS WET AND THE ANTENNA NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I WAS TOLD BY MY GMC DEALERSHIP (I WORK FOR THE FAMILY THAT OWNS THE DEALERSHIP) THAT THE ANTENNA IS NOT COVERED UNDER A RECALL. I DO NOT THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR A DEFECT IN MY ANTENNA! THE MANUFACTURER THAT MADE MY VEHICLE SHOULD PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ANTENNA NOT ME! IT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT I HAVE DONE TO THE VEHICLE. IT IS A DEFECT IN MANUFACTURING! I WOULD LIKE FOR GM TO PLACE A RECALL FOR THE ANTENNA TO BE REPAIRED FREE OF CHARGE. AGAIN, I WORK WITH THE GMC DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE HAD OTHER CUSTOMERS COME IN WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT! AGAIN, I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ANTENNA OR FILE A CLAIM WITH MY WARRANTY COMPANY. THIS IS A DEFECT!

TAKATA RECALL: I FIRST RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE RECALL IN 2017. I HAVE BEEN CHECKING PERIODICALLY FOR AN UPDATE FOR THE FIX FOR THIS RECALL. I CHECKED AGAIN TODAY AND IT THE WEBSITE STATES THAT THE RECALL IS INCOMPLETE, REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE. SO MYSELF AND MY FAMILY ARE RIDING DAILY IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE AND NO ONE SEEMS CONCERNED ABOUT REMEDYING THE SITUATION. I WOULD LIKE SOMEONE TO TELL ME WHAT CAN BE DONE TO FIX THIS SITUATION.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
MY PASSENGER FRONT LIGHT COVER IS ACQUIRING CONDENSATION WHICH MAKES THE LIGHTS GO OFF AND ON, AND MY DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WORKS ONLY INTERMITTENTLY. MY INSURANCE OR WARRANTY WON'T COVER ANYTHING TO FIX THESE LIGHT ISSUES. THESE ISSUES STARTED ABOUT MAY 2018. WE WEREN'T IN A WRECK OR SUSTAINED ANY DAMAGES THAT WOULD HAVE LED TO THESE ISSUES. I HAVE TALKED TO TWO OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME MAKE/MODEL/YEAR VEHICLE AND WE ALL HAVE SAFETY ISSUES THAT ARE NOT BEING RESOLVED BY GM VWARRANTIES. I WANT TO SEE GM ISSUE RECALLS AND ACCEPT COMPLETE FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR REPAIRS. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO SEE THE REAR LIGHTING SYSTEM REDESIGNED SO THE COMPONENTS ARE NOT DEPENDENT ON EACH OTHER. MY BRAKE LIGHT WENT OUT AND INSTEAD OF BEING ABLE TO REPLACE A BULB THE ENTIRE UNIT HAS TO BE REPLACED AT $1700.00 THAT WE JUST SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE STANDING BEHIND THE VEHICLE AND ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE ITEMS FROM THE REAR CARGO AREA, THE LIFT GATE RANDOMLY SLAMS SHUT WITHOUT NOTICE OR WARNING. THIS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE I WAS BEHIND THE VEHICLE. ON SOME OCCASIONS MY CHILD(REN) WAS WITH ME ANDWAS ALMOST HIT AS WELL. SINCE I AM TALLER I WAS HIT AND WAS ABLE TO SAVE MY CHILD FROM INJURY. I WAS HIT SEVERAL TIMES ON DIFFERENT OCCASIONS EITHER I THE HEAD OR IN THE BACK, DEPENDING ON MY POSITION AT THE TIME. I ENSURED THAT I DID NOT HAVE THE KEY FOBIN MY POCKET TO ACCIDENTLY ACTIVATE THE CLOSURE, AND I ENSURE THAT I DID NOT ACCIDENTLY ACTIVATE THE CLOSURE SENSOR UNDERNEATH THE REAR BUMPER AREA. UPON INVESTIGATION THE DEALER DETERMINE THE CAUSE TO BE A LIFT GATE MODULE DEFECT, AS WELL AS SENSOR AND LIFTGATE CALIBRATION.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
BRAKE LIGHTS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. THE PROBLEM IS NOT WITH THE LED BUT WITH THE POOR QUALITY OF THE CONTROLLER BOARD. BOTH OF MY TAIL LIGHTS HAVE ENCOUNTERED THIS ISSUE IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS AND THEY ARE VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE. THE PART ALONE IS OVER $ 900.00. I HAVE TALKED TO A COUPLE OF DEALERS ABOUT THIS AND THEY ARE A FREQUENT PROBLEM, AND ONE DEALER SPECIFIED THAT HE HAS SOLD 4 REPLACEMENT UNITS IN THE LAST 24 HOURS. THIS INDICATES THAT THE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY IS VERY POOR QUALITY AND CAN BE A SAFETY HAZARD AS THERE IS NO WAY TO TELL THAT YOUR BRAKE LIGHT ISN'T WORKING UNLESS SOMEONE TELLS YOU.

WHILE STANDING BEHIND THE VEHICLE WITH THE LIFT GATE OPEN, AND ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE ITEMS FROM THE REAR AREA THE LIFT GATE RANDOMLY SLAMS SHUT WITHOUT NOTICE OR WARNING. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE WAY OF THE LIFT GATE CLOSING AS WELL, HOWEVER, SINCE I AM TALLER I WAS HIT FIRST SAVING MY CHILDREN. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS I WAS HIT IN THE HEAD AND IT THE BACK BY THE SLAMMING REAR LIFT GATE. I ENSURED THAT I DID NOT HAVE THE KEY FOB ACCIDENTLY ACTIVATED IN MY POCKET AND THAT I DID NOT ACTIVATE THE CLOSURE SENSOR UNDERNEATH THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. UPON INVESTIGATION BY THE DEALER THE CAUSE WAS IDENTIFIED TO BE THE LIFT GATE MODULE. THE LIFT GATE ALSO REQUIRED RECALIBRATION AND SENSOR ALIGNMENT.
