ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, STEERING
THIS CAR CAME WITH A 30 DAY AND/OR 1000 MILES WARRANTY. WITHIN A WEEK PASS THE WARRANTY IT STARTED. THE RADIO ILLUMINATION STARTED TO GO OUT WE WOULD HAVE TO TAP ON IT TO GET IT TO TURN ON SO WE COULD SEE THE TIME ETC. THEN IT WOULD NOT COME BACK ON AT ALL AND ALL CHIMES WENT AWAY., STOPPED WORKING ALTOGETHER. NO TURN SINGLE INDICATOR, SEAT BELTS, BACK UP WARNING, DOOR AJAR ETC. THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG INDICATOR WOULD SAY NO ONE WHEN SOMEONE WAS SITTING IN IT AND WHILE DRIVING BLINK BETWEEN THE TWO. ALSO AIR BAG NEEDS MAINTANCE INDICTOR IN DASH WILL FLASH WHILE DRIVING. PARK ASSISTANT ON AND OFF WILL FLASH WHILE DRIVING. THE STEERING WILL MOVE IN ITSELF WHILE DRIVING AND AROUND BENDS/TURNS IN THE ROAD AND WORSENING ON HIGHWAY! TO THE POINT I DO NOT TAKE MY CHILDREN ON. THERE IS ALSO A FAINT BURN SMELL AROUND FRONT FLOOR.I DECIDED TO TAKE IT TO THE LOCAL ADVANCED AUTO PARTS STORE AND HAVE THEM HOOK IT UP TO SEE WHY I LOST MY RADIO, STEERING ETC. THEY TELL ME THAT IT WAS A DEAD BATTERY CELL AND THAT MY BATTERY IS LOCATED IN THE FLOOR OF THIS VEHICLE BEHIND THE PASSENGER SEAT. BY THE WAY THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE A SUNROOF ALL THE WINDOWS GO UP TIGHT AS WELL. I CALLED MY MECHANIC WHO I'VE KNOWN FOR YEARS MY FAMILY HAS WENT TO HIM AS WELL AND ASKED HIM TO ASSIST ME IN THE BATTERY ISSUE. SO WE GET THERE HE OPENS THE FLOOR BEHIND MY SEAT AND WE DISCOVERED THE BATTERY IS UNDERWATER DARK SLUDGY WATER! THE BATTERY IS REPLACED AFTER A VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND DISRESPECTFUL EXPERIENCE WITH THIS PARTICULAR ESTABLISHMENT BY NOW I AM AT MY WITS END. I'VE EXHAUSTED ALL EFFORTS WITH THEM! I PAID TO HAVE A GMC CERTIFIED MECHANIC RUN DIAGNOSTIC ON THESE ISSUES AT HAND AND TO MY THINKING THEY DETERMINED TO BE FLOOD AND/OR WATER DAMAGE AND WOULD NEED FURTHER DIAGNOSTICS. HOWEVER PUZZLING THE VIN IS CLEAN AND NO RECENT OR ACTIVE RECALLS. I AM BARELY INTO THIS CONTRACT 3 MONTHS!

AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE
I PURCHASED A 2008 ACADIA IN NOVEMBER 2016. THE SELLER STATED THAT THEY HAD TO ORDER A AIRBAG AND REPLACE THE OLD ONE. ALONE WITH THE SEAT BELT. I DIDN'T GET THE CAR UNTIL A MONTH LATER. WHEN I GOT THE ACADIA IT WAS MAKING SOME WHINING NOISE, WOULDN'T CRANK BACK UP, RATTLE AND CLATTER, DRAGGING IN THE TRANSMISSION LIKE DRIVING IN A CERTAIN GEARS, NOISY IN NEUTRAL. AIRBAG, SEATBELT AND STABILITY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CONTINUE TO COME ON. NEEDED A ALTERNATOR AND NOW THE ENGINE GONE. I BEEN HAVING PROBLEM'S WITH THE CAR SINCE I GOT IT, AND IT BEEN ONLY 13TH MONTHS. WE WERE DRIVING TWICE AND THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN ON US ON THE IN-STATE. WE HAD TO GET IT PULL BACK HOME. SEVERAL TIMES DRIVING ON THE MAIN HIGHWAY AND STREET IT WOULDN'T GO IN GREAT. I DON'T PHOTOS AT THIS TIME. I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL TOMORROW, TO GO OUTSIDE AND TAKE PICTURES. WHEN I GOT THE VEHICLE THE LEFT DRIVING SIDE TIRE LIGHT CONTINUE TO COME ON, STILL HAVING PROBLEM'S WITH CHANGING THE TIRES LEFT BACK AND RIGHT FRONT. DON'T KNOW HOW MANY MILES WAS ON THERE. I TRIED TO PLACE AN X N THE SEAT BELT AND UNKNOWN OTHER SPACE, BUT IT WOULDN'T LET ME. *JS

MY 2008 GMC ACADIA LEAKS WATER IN SEVERAL DIFFERENT LOCATIONS INSIDE THE VEHICLE WHEN IT RAINS. IT HAS LEAKED WATER THROUGH THE AIR BAGS AND I'M NOW CONCERNED THAT THE AIR BAGS COULD BE WATER DAMAGED AND COMPROMISED. IT LEAKS THROUGH ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. IT SMELLS LIKE MOLD AND MILDEW IN THE CAR. CONDENSATION BUILDS UP IN THE CAR FREQUENTLY AFTER IT RAINS. THE CAR WILL ALSO SPUTTER AND ACT LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL OUT WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY SOMETIMES. IT TELLS ME TO 'SERVICE TRACTION CONTROLS' AND 'SERVICE STABILITRACK'.

AIR BAGS, SEAT BELTS
MY WIFE FELL ASLEEP RAN OFF THE ROAD STRUCK A UTILITY POLE AND A LARGE DIRT EMBANKMENT. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY NOR DID THE BELT TENSIONERS,SHE HIT THE STEERING COLUMN SO HARD SHE IT BROKE THE COLUMN AND BROKE HER STERNUM. OUR GRANDDAUGHTER WAS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THE AIR BAG NOR THE TENNSIONERS DEPLOYED RESULTING HER BACK BEING BROKEN IN TWO PLACES AND ALSO HER FOOT WAS BROKEN. I CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS AND THEY SENT A MAN TO DOWNLOAD THE COMPUTER INFORMATION THEY SENT ME A COPY OF THE INFO AND LATER CONTACTED ME SAYING THE INFO SHOWED EVERYTHING WAS WORKING PROPERLY. PRYOR TO THE ACCIDENT I HAD THE AUTO IN FOR THE RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. I ALSO HAD IT IN FOR ANOTHER RECALL FOR THE HEADLIGHTS AND THEY HAD TO REMOVE A LARGE PART OF THE FRONT TO DO THE REPAIR AND DONE A POOR JOB OF PUTTING IT BACK TOGETHER I RETURNED IT AND THEY FINALLY GOT IT RIGHT,IN THE MEAN TIME THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND THEY REPAIRED THAT.LATER AFTER THE ACCIDENT I WENT BACK TO THE DEALER AND QUESTIONED THE BODY SHOP MANAGER ABOUT PUTTING IT BACK TOGETHER PROPERLY AND THEN TOLD HIM ABOUT THE ACCIDENT THEN HE HAD NOTHING ELSE TO SAY. THE AUTO WAS A TOTAL LOSS AFTER A LENGTH OF TIME WIFE AND GRANDDAUGHTER GOT OUT OF HOSPITAL. THIS CAR WAS RECALLED FOR THIS VERY REASON. MY INSURANCE COMPANY PAID MY GRANDDAUGHTER $95,000 FOR HER INJURIES AND COMMENTED THAT THEY WOULD PROBABLY SUE GM TO GET THAT BACK.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF ABRUPTLY WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE AS TURNED OFF IN A PARKED-IDLING POSITION, ROLLING AT FIVE MPH, AND EVEN BETWEEN 60-70 MPH. MOST OF THE TIME WHEN THE CAR SHUTS DOWN, YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR WITHOUT REMOVING THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION AND INSERTING IT TO THE ON POSITION CYCLING THAT MOTION FOUR TO FIVE TIMES. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND SPOKEN TO OTHER OWNERS WITH THE SAME MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR AS I HAVE AND THEY ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I AM CERTAIN I AM NOT THE ONLY COMPLAINT REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE SAFETY FOR MY FAMILY AND MYSELF BECAUSE AS MENTIONED BEFORE, THIS HAPPENS AT RANDOM. THERE SHOULD BE SOME KIND OF RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE, HOWEVER THERE IS NOT. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
BOUGHT VEHICLE WITH ONLY 23K MILES ON IT, TRANSMISSION STARTED ACTING UP WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF DRIVING IT, TAKEN TO A DEALER, SAID NOTHING WRONG, ANOTHER YEAR LATER GOT WORSE, TOOK IT IN TO A DIFFERENT DEALER, NOTHING WRONG, 6 MONTHS LATER TOOK IT IN BEFORE GOING ON VACATION, NOTHING WRONG, BUT HAD PROBLEMS WHILE ON VACATION, 6 MONTHS LATER, 1,500 MILES AWAY FROM HOME ON VACATION, DRIVING DOWN A 75 MILE AN HOUR SPEED LIMIT DIVIDED HIGHWAY, TRANSMISSION WENT OUT WITH NO WARNING, NO DASH WARNING, TOOK IN TO A TRANSMISSION DEALER (SINCE WE COULDN'T GET INTO A DEALER) AND SAID WE WOULDN'T MAKE IT HOME THE WAY IT WAS. 5 GRAND LATER AND A MESS OF A VACATION LATER WE WERE ON OUR WAY HOME. LESS THAN 3 MONTHS LATER, TIGHTEN GAS CAP LIGHT ON DASH, CHECK TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT ON AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. FOUND OUT ONLINE THAT THIS MODEL AND MAKE AND YEAR HAD NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH TRANSMISSION, DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THERE WAS NO RECALL AND HOW GM GOT AWAY WITH IT. OH, AND WE WERE UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY IN THE BEGINNING WHERE THEY SAID NOTHING WRONG, AND AS SOON AS WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED, BOOM! TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE FIXED! TRANSMISSION DEALER SAID THE DAMAGE WAS FROM A CHEAP 15.00 PART THAT CAUSED US TO HAVE TO SPEND 5 GRAND WHILE ON VACATION. WE HAVE ALL SHOP PAPERWORK SHOWING THE PAPER TRAIL WHAT WE TRIED TO GET FIXED.

CURRENT SYMPTOM: SERVICE AIRBAG MESSAGE COMES ON PERIODICALLY WHEN DRIVING. THE LIGHT GOES OFF WHEN I TIGHTEN THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG WIRE HARNESSES. THE NEW FIX PER RECALL BULLETIN NO. 14030B: DEALERS WILL REMOVE THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WIRING HARNESS CONNECTORS AND SPLICE AND SOLDER THE WIRES TOGETHER. THE OLD FIX BEFORE THE FORMAL RECALL: DEALERS REMOVED THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WIRING HARNESS CONNECTORS AND SPLICED AND SOLDERED THE WIRES TOGETHER. PRIOR TO THE 2014 RECALL, GM THOUGHT THAT ONLY THE PASSENGER WIRE HARNESS WAS FAULTY. IN 2011 I PARTICIPATED IN GM'S VOLUNTARY FIX (JUST THE PASS SIDE) BEFORE THE FORMAL RECALL ' NOW GM STATES THAT MY VEHICLE DOESN'T QUALIFY FOR THE CORRECT RECALL FIX OF BOTH WIRE HARNESSES. THEY STRONGLY RECOMMEND I PAY $350 TO HAVE THE WIRE HARNESS REPAIRED THE WAY THE RECALL OUTLINES.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I PURCHASED A USED 2008 GMC ACADIA IN MAY 2017 EVER SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE MY DAUGHTER IS A SENIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL AND I KNEW THAT WE WOULD BE NEEDING IT TO TRAVEL FROM STATE TO STATE FOR COLLEGE TOURS. EVERY SINCE I PURCHASED WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TRAVEL BECAUSE OF THE CONTINUOUS LIGHT TO COME ON, CONTINUOUS CODES THAT COMES ON AND IT CAUSES THE CAR TO RUN HORRIBLY I AM SPENDING $20-$30 A DAY ON GAS AND I'M ALSO NOTICING THAT THE OIL IS JUST EVAPORATING BUT I'M NOT SEEING IT ON THE GROUND I CONTINUE TO TAKE IT TO THE MECHANIC HE CONTINUE TO FIX THINGS THAT THE CODES GIVES HIM. I'M STILL SPENDING MONEY AND I'M STILL NOT GETTING ANY RESULTS I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TRAVEL IN THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE I REFUSE TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY CHILD AND BREAKDOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. WHAT WE NEED TO DO IS START A PETITION WITH GMC BECAUSE IF EVERYONE IS HAVING THESE PROBLEMS THEN IT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM I AM TO THE POINT WHERE I AM READY TO START A LAWSUIT. I MEAN LET'S BE HONEST WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR EITHER US OR ONE OF OUR LOVED ONES TO DIE AND IS KNOWN DEATH TRAP. THERE ARE SO MANY RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE THAT ALL OF THEM SHOULD BE JUST CALLED IN AND REPAIRED APPARENTLY IT'S A PROBLEM WITH GMC ASSEMBLING THE VEHICLE AND THEY DO NOT WANT TO OWN UP TO THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES AND IT'S NOT FAIR TO US THAT I LIVES ARE AT STAKE.

THE SUNROOF DRAINAGE TUBES GET CLOGGED AND LEAKED WATER WHICH CAUSED THE FUSE BOX IN THE DASH TO BE FILLED WITH WATER. ALSO FLOODING ALL THE FLOORS AND THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT INSIDE THE CAR. WHICH IN RETURN CAUSES THE CAR TO NOT SHUT OFF WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY OFF AND TAKE IT OUT. IT ALSO CAUSES ALL KINDS OF SENSORS AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS TO COME ON ON THE DASH LIKE SERVICE AIRBAG SERVICE STABLE TRACK CAUSES THE TRACTION CONTROL TO TURN OFF FALSELY TELLS YOU THAT ENGINE OIL NEEDS CHANGED ALSO CAUSES THE BATTERY TO GO DEAD FOR NO REASON ALSO DISPLAYS AC OFF ENGINE HOT

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHEN IT RAINS, WATER GETS INTO CIRCUIT BOX AND SHORTS OUT ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. VEHICLE WILL NOT START. WHEN VEHICLE IS JUMPED, VEHICLE'S PERFORMANCE IS VERY POOR, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON. I WAS INFORMED THIS COULD BE THE RESULTS OF SUNROOF DRAINAGE TUBES NOT WORKING AND CAUSING WATER TO LEAK INTO THE VEHICLE FROM THE "A" POSTS. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION.
