2010 GMC TERRAIN Complaints

TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. WHILE ON A SLIGHT INCLINE,CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE .FORWARD ACCELERATION WAS VERY SLUDGIEST. CORROSION ON PASSENGER SIDE DOOR.

I WAS DRIVING IN A HEAVY RAINSTORM AT NIGHT AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH. SUDDENLY, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED MOVING. I HAD NO VISIBILITY OUT MY FRONT WINDSHIELD, AS A SHEET OF WATER LAY ON THE GLASS, WITH THE GLARE WORSENED BY THE HEADLIGHTS OF ONCOMING VEHICLES. I WAS ON A NARROW STATE ROAD WITH NO SHOULDERS (A GUARDRAIL ON ONE SIDE, MATURE TREES ON THE OTHER), WITH NO SAFE PLACE TO PULL OVER. THE WIPERS WOULD NOT OPERATE IN ANY SETTING (HIGH, LOW, INTERMITTENT). THE NEXT DAY, DURING THE DAYLIGHT, I OBSERVED THAT I COULD MANUALLY 'FREEWHEEL' THE WIPER ARMS. WHILE I COULD HEAR THE WINDSHIELD MOTOR TURNING, THE WIPER ARMS THEMSELVES APPEARED TO BE NO LONGER LINKED/TETHERED TO THE WIPER MOTOR. TWO DAYS LATER, THE GMC DEALER INFORMED ME THAT MY "WIPER TRANSMISSION WAS BROKEN". WHILE THE REPAIR COST ME $372, MY BIGGER CONCERN IS THAT THIS INCIDENT EASILY FALLS WITHIN THE TOP 3 MOST HORRIFYING EXPERIENCES OF MY LIFE....DRIVING ALONE, AT NIGHT, IN THE RAIN, AND SUDDENLY A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF BOTH WIPERS, LEAVING ME UNABLE TO SEE OUT MY FRONT WINDSHIELD, WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND NOWHERE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. *TR

RETURNING TOWARDS HOME AND TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTIONED. LIMPED AT 5 MPH TO STARK STOUGHTON WI. SALES DEPT HELPED WITH A LOANER CAR BECAUSE SERVICE WAS CLOSED. CALLED NEXT DAY AND HAD TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION.I THINK AROUND JUNE 8TH 2016. FINISHED AROUND JUNE 17TH. LUKE PIPER / [email protected] STARK AUTOMOTIVE (608)873-5661

WELL FIRST PROBLEM WAS IN SEPT 2014 MILEAGE ON CAR WAS 54170 THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED FROM MY JOB TO DEALER CAME OUT AFTER WORKING AND ENTIRE ELECTRIC SYSTEM WAS DOWN COULD NOT START OR OPEN LOCKS ON CAR WITH KEY SYSTEM AT THAT TIME THEY TOLD ME THE TIMING CHAIN BROKE TO WHICH THEY FIXED AND ON RECEIPT THEY CLAIM THEY REPLACED CHAIN GASKET AND SEALANT ALSO THEY CLAIMED THEY PERFORMED A CARBON CLEANING AND DID A 27 POINT INSPECTION NOW AT MILEAGE OF 73740 THEY CLAIM THE MOTOR IS BAD AND SAID IT WOULD NOT LAST AND WANTED TO CHARGE ME 7500.00 FOR A NEW MOTOR WHEN I TOLD THEM THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT GO OUT I WAS TOLD BECAUSE I WENT TO ANOTHER PLACE FOR OIL CHANGE THAT WAS A FIRESTONE PLACE THE MECHANIC CLAIMED THE ACTUATORS WERE CLOGGED AND CLAIMED THE MOTOR WAS NOT REPAIRABLE AT THAT I DECIDED TO TRADE THE CAR IN AND I DID LEASE ANOTHER CAR AT THE SAME DEALER I KNOW ITS NOT THEIR FAULT THE ENGINE DID NOT HOLD UP LIKE IT WAS THOUGHT TO WHEN I PURCHASED IT. WHILE I WAS WAITING FOR REASONS WHY THE LIGHT WAS ON SPOKE TO ANOTHER PERSON AND SHE CLAIMED SHE HAD 2 PERSONS WHO HAD SIMILAR ISSUES SO THAT IS WHY IM LOOKING TO SEE IF THERE IS A SUIT IN PROGRESS

WHILE DRIVING TO SUV FOR SUM TIME BREAKS LOCK UP WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY I HAVE TOW TO SHOP BY THEN ITS UNLOCK STABLE TRAK AND ABS DONT COME ON NO MORE THE CAR SLOWS DOWN TO 10 MPH OR LESS DANGER ON FREEWAY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC TERRAIN. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE STOPPED ACCELERATING. THE CONTACT OBSERVED THAT THE ANTIFREEZE COOLANT SEAL FAILED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO OVERHEAT WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PISTON RINGS FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. ALSO, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09V489000 (VISIBILITY). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 124,000.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER WILL HAVE TO BE REPAIRED. FAILED EMMISIONS TESTING. BY THE TIME I FIX THIS ALONG WITH THE OTHER MAJOR PARTS I KNOW IT'S 6 YEARS LATER BUT THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. PLEASE STRONGLY CONSIDER A RECALL ON THIS! THERE ARE UNUSUAL AND MAJOR ISSUES WITH THE 2010 GMC TERRAIN PLEASE CHECK THE INTERNET OR PULL FILES OF ALL ISSUE WHERE GMC STATES NOTHING WAS DETECTED. THIS IS AN EASY WAY FOR GMC TO GET OUT OF RECALLS. MAYBE WE NEED TO GO TO THE NEWS AND PAPERS.

REQUESTING A RECALL ON THE 2010 GMC TERRAIN. MILEAGE THAT WAS ON THE STICKER WAS INCORRECT. FAR FROM THE TRUTH. MAJOR OIL CONSUMPTION, NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. TAPPING NOISE WAS REPORTED @ 3,000 WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL. KNEW IT WAS NOT. HAD TO REPLACE CAMSHAFT, ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, HEAD LIGHTS CONSTANTLY GOING, NEVER LASTING ANYTIME. WILL NOW HAVE TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION AND PROBABLY ENGINE. GMC STATED THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE TERRAIN THEY STATED IF THERE WERE ANY PROBLEMS THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLS AND THAT THE NHTSA WOULD HAVE DONE THIS. WILL THIS BE DONE? NOT SURE HOW GMC IS GETTING AWAY WITH THIS. SO MANY COMPLAINTS ON LINE. ARE THERE ANY CLASS ACTION SUITS FOR THE TERRAIN? CAN WE START ONE? THERE ARE PLENTY OF PEOPLE WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. NOT EVEN SIMILAR IT'S EXACT.

2010 GMC CERTIFIED USED 86K MILES WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ABOUT 45MPH THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY LOCKED DOWN AND QUITE WORKING, THE TRANSMISSION WAS THE PROBLEM, IT WAS 4 MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY AND COST ME $2800 OUT OF POCKET. I SEE THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE, WHY IS THERE NO RECALL ON THIS YET? THE VEHICLE ALSO BURNS OIL 2-4 QUARTS MORE IN BETWEEN 3K MILE OIL CHANGES. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOW COMING ON AND OFF DEPENDING ON HOW LONG THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. WHY IS THIS VEHICLE HAVING SO MANY ISSUES? ONLY 6 YEARS OLD AND UNDER 90K MILES? RESEARCH THIS PLEASE! DOCUMENTATION CAN BE PROVIDED.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER GOING OUT ON A CAR 6 YEARS OLD. I KNOW SOME GMC HAVE HAD RECALLS ON THEIR CATALYTIC CONVERTER, WHY NOT THE TERRAIN. I HAVE HAD SO MANY THINGS FIXED ON THIS CAR. THE CAR STARTED RUNNING REALLY ROUGH AND HARD. THE FIRST THINGS CAUSED THE CAR TO SHUT DOWN IN POWER. THAT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS FIX. THEN THE AIR BAG LIGHT KEPT COMING ON, AND I HAD REPAIRED. THEN A RECALL WAS ON THAT, AND I WAS REIMBURSE MY MONEY. THEN I HAD THE EVAP VENT SOLENOID ASM AND CLEARED. STILL MORE PROBLEMS SO TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. MORE MONEY SPENT AS NOW THEY SAID "TESTED EVAP SYSTEM AND FOUND GAS CAP LEAKING." REPAIRED THAT THEN MORE MONEY WAS NEEDED AS THEY SAID AFTER THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN EVAP PURGE SOLENOID LEAKING PRESSURE.THEN THE COMPRESSOR WENT OUT. I LIVE IN TEXAS SO AIR WAS NEEDED. WELL NOW THE SERVICES ENGINE LIKE IS ON AGAIN, AND THE CAR IDLE REAL HARD AND JERKS LIKE IT WANTS TO DIE. AFTER CHECKING THE ENGINE LIGHT I WAS TOLD NOW IT'S MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER, AND ITS GOING TO COST ME $1200. AFTER RESEARCHING I HAVE FOUND OTHER ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE 2010 GMC TERRAIN. THESE CARS AND YEAR MODEL APPEAR TO BE JUNK. WILL THERE BE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM? COULD YOU ARE INVESTIGATE THIS?
