2018 GMC TERRAIN Complaints

SCREEN WENT BLACK AND WARNING CHIMES AND SEAT VIBRATION DID NOT GO OFF WHEN BACKING UP. HAD TO FILE A CLAIM WITH INSURANCE TO FIX MY DENTED BUMPER. I ALSO EXPERIENCE ISSUES WITH THE AUDIO BUTTONS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. I AM NOT ABLE TO CHANGE THE SONG IN I AM ON APPLE PLAY AND THERE IS ALWAYS A DELAY WHEN CHANGING RADIO STATIONS.

THE SCREEN ON THE DASH WHICH INCLUDES THE RADIO AND BACK UP CAMERA GOES WHITE AT RANDOM TIMES AND DOES NOT WORK. I HAVE HAD THE RADIO/SCREEN REPLACED AND IT STILL DOES IT. I HAVE HAD MANY UPDATES WITH THE SCREEN.

I ENTERED THE VEHICLE AND SAT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. WHEN I SAT DOWN AND STARTED TO PUT ON MY SEAT BELT, I HEARD A LOUD POP AND THE SEAT BECAME UNSTABLE AND ROCKED BACK AND FORTH. THIS OCCURRED BEFORE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. I LOOKED UNDER THE SEAT AND NOTICED A BOLT HAD SNAPPED ON THE BOTTOM SEAT FRAME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 GMC TERRAIN. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP SIGN, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WOULD RESTART AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TASCA BUICK (510 E NASA BLVD, MELBOURNE, FL 32901, (321) 247-7124) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE PART WAS ON BACKORDER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

WHEN VEERING OR STEERING INTO ANOTHER LANE, LEFT OR RIGHT, THE SAFETY ALERTS, I.E. THE TUG OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND VIBRATION OF SEAT, ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. FOR THE FIRST YEAR OF OWNERSHIP OF THIS VEHICLE, THIS FEATURE WORKED FINE. HOWEVER, IN THE PAST FEW MONTHS, IT HAS QUIT WORKING OR WORKS SPORATICALLY BUT WHEN WORKING SPORATICALLY, DOES NOT WORK AS IT SHOULD. THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT IS UNABLE TO FIX IT STATING THAT IN "UPDATING" THE PROGRAMMING IN MY CAR, THIS FEATURE WAS WEAKENED (DILIBERATELY BECAUSE GMC INTENDED TO WEAKEN THE FEATURE STATING THE REASON WAS BECAUSE SOME DRIVERS WERE USING THIS FEATURE AS AN AUTO-DRIVE). I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE, ONE OF THE REASONS BEING THAT IT OFFERED THIS FEATURE AND NOW THE FEATURE DOESN'T WORK THE WAY IT DID WHEN I BOUGHT IT.

WHILE DRIVING, THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM GOES BLACK, NO AUDIO - THEN REBOOTS AFTER A MINUTE OR TWO. I HAVE DETECTED A BURNING SMELL AS WELL, BUT CANNOT DETERMINE IF IT IS COMING FROM MY VEHICLE OR OUTSIDE. THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES AND THE DEALER IS TELLING ME THEY CAN NOT REPLICATE OR FIND ANYTHING WRONG. VERY FRUSTRATING!!! THIS HAS HAPPENED SHORTLY AFTER LEAVING HOME, WHILE DRIVING ON CITY ROADS, AFTER DRIVING A WHILE, ON THE HIGHWAY, STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. THERE IS SO SPECIFIC TIME OR FREQUENCY THAT THIS OCCURS. THIS FIRST HAPPENED WITHIN 300 MILES OF WHEN I FIRST LEASED, UP TO A WEEK AGO SUNDAY, JULY 7. TOTAL OF 5 TIMES IN THE PAST 10 MONTHS!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 GMC TERRAIN. WHILE DRIVING 80 MPH, THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE SHOOK AND VIBRATED LOUDLY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ED BOZARTH CHEVROLET (2001 S HAVANA ST, AURORA, CO 80014, (720) 746-2716) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIRES WERE FAULTY. BOTH REAR TIRES WERE REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I WAS NOTIFIED OF MY DEALER OF RECALL N192217490. WHICH IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND IT'S NOT ON YOUR LIST WONDERING WHY YOUR LIST IS LACKING YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE THE AUTHORITY ON RECALLS BUT YET ON STAR NOTIFIED MY DEALER OF THIS RECALL AND IT'S A TRANSMISSION ISSUE OR CLUTCH ISSUE WHICH IS SERIOUS WHY IS IT NOT ON YOUR LIST HOW CAN I TRUST YOUR COMPANY TO HAVE A THOROUGH LISTING OF ALL RECALLS WHEN THIS WIND IS NOT EVEN ON CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR YOUR EXPLANATION

WAS LEAVING A PARKING SPOT. VEHICLE REVERSED FINE, PUT IT IN DRIVE AND IT BEGAN TO JERK AND DID NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY. MADE IT TO THE NEXT AISLE TO PARK IT AND GET OUT OF WAY. ONCE PARKED, SHUT OFF VEHICLE. STARTED IT. REVERSED IT AND IT WOULD ONLY REV UP, DID NOT REVERSE. PUT IT IN DRIVE AND IT JERKED FORWARD, HARD AND KEPT JERKING AS I PULLED FORWARD. PARKED IT AGAIN AND TURNED IT OFF. CALLED DEALERSHIP, WHO CALLED A TOW SERVICE TO TOW IT TO THEM. ATTEMPTED TO SHOW TOW GUY THE ISSUE AT HIS REQUEST, UPON HIS ARRIVAL, PUT IT IN REVERSE AND IT REVVED UP BRIEFLY THEN JERKED INTO REVERSE. HAD TO MOVE VEHICLE TO CLEAR AREA TO GET IT ON THE TOW TRUCK SO I PUT IT IN DRIVE AND IT BEGAN TO JERK CONSTANTLY AND BARELY ACCELERATING AS I DROVE AND FELT AND SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO SHUT OFF (BUT DIDN'T) BEFORE I MADE IT TO WHERE I COULD PARK AGAIN. LUCKILY I WAS IN A PARKING LOT AND NOT ON THE ROAD. I'VE HAD THIS VEHICLE EXACTLY A MONTH. VERY SCARY.

BOUGHT BRAND NEW. AT 14,000 MILES ALL 4 ROTORS ARE PITTED WITH GROOVES. DEALER TOOK THEM APART AND FOUND NOTHING THAT COULD CAUSE IT. SAID THEY WERE "WEATHERED". TOOK IT TO 2 OTHER PLACES AND SAID IT WAS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT. DEALER WONT REPLACE BECAUSE BUMPER TO BUMPER WONT COVER IT. ITS A DEFECT DIDNT NOTICE UNTIL ANOTHER DEALER DID THE OIL CHANGE. THE DEALER IN FEBRUARY SAID THEY WERENT LIKE THAT IN FEBRUARY.
