2014 GMC TERRAIN Complaints

WHILE DRIVING MY TRUCK POWER REDUCE DRASTICALLY WITHOUT ME BRAKING. THE DASH SHOWS STABILIZER CONTROL REDUCING POWER.

I RECEIVED A DOCUMENT DATED DEC 2019 REGARDING A CONDITION WHERE A LINK BALL SOCKET IN THE WIPER TRANSMISSION MAY SEPARATE CAUSING A COMPLETE LOSS OF WIPER FUNCTION. IT IS NOT BEING HANDLED AS A RECALL WHICH I THINK IT SHOULD BE. ONLY VEHICLES WHICH EXPERIENCE THIS FAILURE WILL BE REPAIRED. THIS APPEARS TO BE MORE OF A SAFETY ISSUE THAN AN ADVISORY AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A RECALL OR BE DONE FOR FREE AT THE OWNERS REQUEST. I CONTACTED PATRIOT GMC IN BOYERTOWN AND ASKED THAT THE REPAIR BE DONE UNDER THE ADVISORY NOTICE AS A COURTESY BUT HAVE NOT HEARD BACK.

AS MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS FILED HERE MY WIPER TRANSMISSION/LINKAGE HAS FAILED ALSO BUT JUST WEEK FOR THE SECOND TIME AFTER HAVING REPLACED IT JUST LAST YEAR WITH NEW REPLACEMENT ONE. I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND IT WAS SNOWING PARTIAL CITY STREET AND HIGHWAY DRIVING. LAST YEAR WHEN IT FAILED IT WAS RAINING ON MY WAY HOME ON HIGHWAY. NEEDLESS TO SAY I WOULD LIKE AN EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THIS HAS FAILED FOR A SECOND TIME AND NO MANUFACTURING DESIGN UPGRADE HAS BEEN DONE BY GM TO RECTIFY THIS CONTINUAL FAILURE.

ENGINE STALLS/ HESITATES ESPECIALLY WHEN AT A STOP, IDLE FOR A PERIOD SUCH AS AT A STOP LIGHT, ALSO WHEN IN REVERSE AND DOES NOT HAVE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THIS DID HAPPEN BEFORE AND A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DID APPEAR. I PULLED THE CODES P0010 AND P0011.

AS SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE WITH THIS VEHICLE HAVE REPORTED RECENTLY, WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE IN A RAINSTORM. I TRIED CHANGING THE FUSE SINCE BUT NO CHANGE. I CAN HEAR THE MOTOR RUNNING WHEN SWITCHING TO THE ON POSITION BUT NO RESPONSE AT ALL FROM EITHER WIPE.

I HAVE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE SINCE 11/2019. IT TWICE HAS HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS IN 12/2019. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON FOR ABOUT A WEEK. THE AUTO START WAS NOT WORKING, AND THE ONLY ISSUE I SEEN WAS THAT IF IT SAT RUNNING FOR A WHILE LIKE FOR INSTANCES, WARMING UP, IT FLOODED AND THE ENGINE WOULD CONTINUE TO RUN A FEW SECONDS AFTER IGNITION KEY WAS TAKEN OUT OF THE IGNITION. ENGINE WOULD STOP AFTER BUBBLING TO A STOP. THEN THE CHECK LIGHT WENT OUT AND EVERYTHING WORKED PROPERLY. BUT, ON 2/1/2020, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. MY AUTO START IS NOT WORKING AGAIN. AS LONG THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT AUTO START. THE CAR IS AGAIN FLOODING OUT AFTER ENGINE SHUT DOWN. AFTER IGNITION KEY IS TAKEN OUT OF IGNITION. THE ENGINE WILL RUN FOR A FEW SECONDS AND THEN BUBBLE TO A ENGINE STOP. WONDER IF OTHER CUSTOMERS HAS HAD PROBLEMS LIKE THIS TOO? BUT, THAT IS NOT NORMAL FOR A VEHICLE TO HAVE A CHECK ENGINE LIKE TO COME ON AND IT INTERFERES WITH THE AUTO START AND CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO FLOOD OUT LIKE IT DOES.

CAR CUT OFF WHEN GEAR IN DRIVE & BRAKE WAS LET GO. WOULD CUT RIGHT BACK ON BUT SAME ISSUE CONTINUED. ONCE CAR WAS ABLE TO GO IT SHOOK IF DRIVEN OVER 20MPH.

THE CAR AT 80K HAD ITS ENGINE REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY FOR A BAD DEAL WHICH THEN RUINED PISTONS AND ETC. AT 155K IT DID THE SAME AND POWERED DOWN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH ENGINE ISSUES. I WAS DRIVING ON THE ROAD WHEN THIS HAPPENED LEAVING ME ON A CURVE AND THE ENGINE FUMING AND OIL POURING OUT UNDER NEATH

THIS CAR BURNS 3 QUARTS OF OIL BETWEEN 5000 MILE OIL CHANGE INTERVALS. IT HAS DONE IT SINCE IT WAS NEW. I JUST FOUND OUT IT IS BECAUSE OF A FAULTY PCV SYSTEM.01

VEHICLE HAS 85000 MILES AND NEEDS NEW TIMING CHAIN DUE TO BURNING OIL. QUOTED $2200-$2800 FOR REPAIR. ROUGH RIDING, WANTS TO STALL AT LOWER SPEEDS, SLOW DOWNS AND STOPS. STILL OWE ON THIS VEHICLE, BOUGHT FROM DEALERSHIP NOT EVEN TWO YEARS AGO.
