ENGINE
OUT OF NOWHERE MY CAR JUST DIED WHEN I GOT TO WORK, AND THEN AGAIN TWICE ON MY WAY HOME. I TOOK IT TO GET TESTED THE NEXT DAY AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TIMING CHAIN. I DROVE IT 3 BLOCKS TO A DEALERSHIP, AND ON THE WAY THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND HEARD A LOUD NOISE. PRIOR TO THIS, NO INDICATOR LIGHTS OF ANY KIND CAME ON, NO STRANGE NOISES, NO WARNING WHATSOEVER. DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE. WITH ONLY 92,000 MILES ON VEHICLE, MY ENGINE IS NOW RUINED (WITH NO WARNING AT ALL), AND I HAVE TO COME UP WITH THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX IT. HOW HAS THIS NOT BEEN A RECALL SITUATION AT THIS POINT GIVEN ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME THING - SUDDEN ENGINE ISSUES RESULTING IN ENGINE REPLACEMENT WITH LESS THAN 100,000 MILES. GM PLEASE DO SOMETHING TO MAKE THIS RIGHT.

AIR BAGS
MY SERVICE BAG LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT 1 MONTH AGO. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO CHECK IT OUT. THEY SAID MY YEAR IS NOT IN THE RECALL LIST. THEY ALSO SAID NONE OF THE AIR BAGS WILL WORK UNTIL IT GETS FIXED. I AM LIVING ON A LIMITED INCOME AND CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX THE AIR BAGS. EVERY YEAR BEFORE AND AFTER OF GMC TERRAIN HAVE BEEN RECALLED. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY MY 2012 HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED. WITH THIS BEING A MANUFACTURED PROBLEM I BELIEVE GMC SHOULD PAY TO FIX THE AIR BAGS. I AM AFRAID TO TAKE MY GRANDCHILDREN WITH ME TO THE STORE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN NOV. 2018. TWO MONTHS LATER I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE STABILI TRAK. I HAVE HAD IT IN THE SHOP AT THE GMC DEALER TWICE. ALL CODES PASSED BECAUSE THE STABILI TRAK LIGHT TURNS OFF. BOTH RPM AND SPEEDOMETER NEEDLES GO UP AND DOWN REAL FAST. SOMETIMES THEY STAY AT 0 AND I START LOOSING POWER. IF I'M STOPPED, IT TAKES FOREVER FOR IT TO GAIN ANY SPEED. I TURN IT OFF AND RESTART IT ONLY FOR IT TO START ALL OVER AGAIN. I TURNED IT OFF ONCE AND TRIED TO RESET AND COMPLETELY DEAD. THIRD TIME IT STARTED. DASH LIGHTS GO FROM DIM TO BRIGHT AND BACK. THE DEALER SAID THEY CANT FIND THE CODES IF THE STABILI TRACK LIGHT ISN'T ON, YET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. IT IS GETTING WORSE, ALMOST EVERY DAY. BUT THE STABILI TRAK LIGHT DOESN'T STAY ON LONG ENOUGH

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I HAVE A 2019 GMC TERRIAN WITH 2500 MILES. I WAS DRIVING IT AND THE CAR FLASHED LOW FUEL, CHECK TRANSMISSION AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING AND SHUT DOWN WHILE I WAS AS A HIGHWAY SPEED. I WAS FORTUNATELY OK, HOWEVER IT STRANDED ME AT A SPOT WITH MERGING TRAFFIC, NO SHOULDER AND NO POWER TO GET THE VEHICLE OUT OF THERE. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO START UP SHORTLY, THEN I HAD TO DEAL WITH GETTING GOING AGAIN IN THIS PRECARIOUS SPOT.
