2014 GMC ACADIA Complaints

SERVICE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ON THE DASH. I'VE HAD MY CAR RIGHT AT A YEAR WHEN THE WARNING CAME UP ON THE DASH. UPON RESEARCHING I'VE NOTICED SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AS CLOSE AS TWO DAYS AGO.. MY CAR HAS A LITTLE OVER 77,000 MILES ON IT.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED IN APRIL 2017, BUT A FEW MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE I STARTED HAVING A LIGHT ON IN THE DASH SAYING "SERVICE AIR BAG". I'VE TRIED IGNORING IT & HOPING THAT THERE WOULD EVENTUALLY BE A RECALL BECAUSE THE VEHICLE NO LONGER HAD A WARRANTY, BUT WE ARE ABOUT TO TAKE IT IN TO GET IT SERVICED. AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET I AM FINDING THAT MANY OTHER PEOPLE WITH ACADIAS HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE & HAVE HAD TO TAKE THEIR VEHICLE & PAY TO GET IT SERVICED. I'VE ALSO READ WHERE THERE WERE SOME ACCIDENTS WHERE THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT MANY GMC MODELS WERE RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE, BUT IT WAS FOR YEAR MODELS PREVIOUS TO MINE (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE YEAR BEFORE MINE). I HAVE A FRIEND WHO HAS THE CHEVROLET TRAVERSE (WHICH IS THE EXACT SAME VEHICLE AS MINE, JUST WITH THE CHEVROLET NAME) & SHE HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM THAT I'M HAVING. IS THIS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE? PLEASE RESEARCH THIS. IT IS NOT COINCIDENCE THAT SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM! THIS LIGHT COMES ON AT ALL TIMES AS SOON AS YOU TURN ON THE CAR. I HAVE READ WHERE SOME HAVE HAD FAULTY WIRING UNDER THE SEAT THAT HAD TO BE RE-SOLDERED.

THE SEATS FOR THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER ARE NOT ERGONOMICALLY CORRECT. THE PUSH THE PASSENGERS HEAD AND NECK FORWARD INTO AN UNNATURAL POSOTION. THIS HAPPENS AT THE WITH THE HEADREST FULLY UP, DOWN, FORWARD OR AS FAR BACK IN POSITION AS IT CAN BE MIVED. I AM CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING NECK PAIN. I HAVE NO ISSUE WITH LOWER LUMBAR SUPPORT. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH MANY I DIVIDUALS IN SOCIAL MEDIA THAT HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITH THIS CAR AND THE 2014 BUICK SUV.

WHILE DRIVING, THE STABILITRAK SERVICE MESSAGE CAME ON, THEN TRACKTION CONTROL DISPLAYED. THE CAR THEN STALLED, WHILE DOING 70 ON THE FREEWAY. ALMOST GOT KILLED TRYING TO GET TO THE RIGHT LANE. HAD TO TURN OFF IGNITION (AND OPEN THE DOOR TO KILL THE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT) TO RESET THE CAR TO DRIVE IT. THE CAR ALSO DOES THIS AT IDLE. IT WILL RANDOMLY MIS-SHIFT AND FEEL LIKE A CHAIN WAS HOOKED TO MY BUMPER AND BROKE OFF. SUPER SCARY, LIFE IN DANGER FOR SURE. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 24 HOURS. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR 5 DAYS AGO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC ACADIA. WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH, THE ENGINE POWER REDUCED, SERVICE STABILITRAK, AND TRACTION CONTROL OFF WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED THREE TIMES. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS HAD TO BE REPLACED EIGHT TIMES WITHIN ONE YEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 77,000.

AUXILLARY EVAPORATOR CORE FAILURE, 2 TIMES SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE AT THE HEAT OF THE DAY, DRIVER SIDE A/C BLEW COLD, PASSENGER SIDE BLEW HOT

TAKATA RECALL MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING TOTAL SYSTEM ELECTRICAL FAILING, IT STARTED WITH A REAR COLLISION MODULE AND NOW IT IS OTHER SYSTEM LIKE; AIRBAG LIGHTS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, BLINGERS, RADIO, ETC. I HAVE READ THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM BUT NO RECALL, WE NEED HELP!

POWER STEERING FAILED - NO DASH LIGHT, DIP STICK HIDDEN UNDER PLASTIC ENGINE SHROUD, NO FLUID SHOWING. ALMOST CAUSED SERIOUS ACCIDENT WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN AT INTERSECTION THEN FAILED COMPLETELY ON THE NEXT TURN TO THE RIGHT. NOW THE STEERING WITHOUT THE PUMP IS SERIOUSLY DIFFICULT TO TURN, ESPECIALLY AT SLOW SPEEDS OR GOING DOWN HILL.

THERE IS A WATER LEAK EVERY TIME IT RAINS. ONCE I COULD NOT SHUT OFF MY CAR HAD TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. SAID THE DRAIN LINE FOR SUNROOF HAD DEBRI AND WATER WAS SITTING ON FUSE BOX. WATER LEAKS IN FLOOR BOARD. YESTERDAY, THERE IS NO SOUND IN VEHICLE AT ALL (NO RADIO NO BLINKING NOISE WHEN BLINKER IS TURNED ON.)

MY CAR IS ON HIS 4TH BATTERY SINCE I BOUGHT IT. SOMETHING KEEPS DRAINING THE BATTERY. TWO TRIPS TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAY ALL OK. TODAY AFTER BEEN THE 4 DAYS AGO, THE BATTERY IS DEAD AS GAIN. IT DOES TAKE CHARGE. CAN I APPLY FOR THE LEMON LAW, I WONDER.
