2014 GMC TERRAIN Complaints

1) BRAKES HAVE ALWAYS RUBBED & GRABBED REALLY HARD WHEN APPLIED. ALMOST LIKE THEY ARE DEFECTIVE ROTORS. HARD TO STOP FAST. I NOTICE THEY RECALLED A LOT OF THEIR BRAKES, BUT NOT MINE. 2). TRANSMISSION JERKS & SHIFTS VERY VIOLENTLY @ 16 & 17 MILES PER HOUR. SEEMS TO SLIP & NOT SHIFT @ THAT SPEED REALLY ROUGH. HAS ALWAYS DONE THIS. 3) SOMETIMES THE COLLISION ALERT GOES OFF & THERE IS NOTHING AROUND I LIVE IN THE COUNTRY & HAVE NO TRAFFIC IT WILL JUST GO OFF SCARES THE CRAP OUT OF YOU & STARTLES ME. I SAW ANOTHER PERSON HAD THIS HAPPEN ALSO ALL SITUATIONS ARE IN MOTION WHILE DRIVING. BIGGEST CONCERNS ARE THE TRANSMISSION & BRAKES. 4) OKAY SEATS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE LEATHER HOWEVER, THEY WENT CHEAPY ON THE SIDES. IT CRACKED & CONTINUES TO CRACK & TEAR BECAUSE THE SIDES ARE VINYL. THIS STARTED TO HAPPEN @ APPROXIMATELY 3,000 MILES. I ONLY HAVE 32,000 MILES ON IT. I DON'T DRIVE MUCH.

HAVE NOT DRIVEN VEHICLE FOR A MONTH OR MORE BECAUSE OF PRESSURE WHEN BRAKING. REQUIRED MORE PRESSURE WHEN HOLDING BRAKE AT RED LIGHT OR IN TRAFFIC. FELT AS IF MY FOOT WOULD SLIP OFF BRAKE.

WIPERS FOR MY GMC TERRAIN 2014 STOP WORKING IN MIDDLE OF HEAVY RAIN IN HIGHWAY. MANAGED TO PULL OVER AND WAIT FOR RAIN TO STOP. YOU CAN HEAR MOTOR RUNNING. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR OTHER YEARS BUT 2014 WAS NOT INCLUDED.

I WAS DRIVING OUR VEHICLE ON 8/28/2019 AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING DURING A DOWNPOUR. LUCKILY WE HAD GOTTEN OFF OF THE HIGHWAY, WERE CLOSE TO HOME, AND WERE ABLE TO SLOWLY MAKE IT HOME, BUT HAD THE FAILURE HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY THE RESULTS COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC. TOOK THE CAR TO OUR MARTYS BUICK/GMC IN KINGSTON, MA AND THEY INFORMED US THAT THE WIPER MODULE AND TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY HAD FAILED AND WE HAVE TO VEHICLE REPAIRED FOR ROUGHLY $400. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN WELL DOCUMENTED AND RECALLS ISSUED IN CANADA FROM THIS MAKE, YEAR, AND MODEL VEHICLE. NO SO IN THE US. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE AND NEEDS TO BE RECTIFIED.

THE POWERED LIFT GATE RAISED ALL THE WAY UP (AS REQUESTED), THEN DROPPED UNEXPECTEDLY ON MY WIFE'S BACK AND HEAD THEN RAISED AGAIN THEN DROPPED AND LATCHED. THE POWERED LIFT GATE REPEATS THIS UPON EVERY REQUEST TO OPEN AND WILL NOT REMAIN OPEN, MAKING THE REAR CARGO AREA BASICALLY USELESS. THE LIFT GATE IS VERY HEAVY AND COULD POSSIBLY INJURE SOMEONE WHEN DROPPING DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN OUR GARAGE UPON THE FIRST TIME AND THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN PARKED EACH TIME THE LIFT GATE WAS REQUESTED TO OPEN.

MY CAR MAKES A RUBBING NOISE WHEN AND ONLY WHEN YOU STOP. ALSO MY FORWARD COLLISION ALERT COMES ON WHEN NOTHING IS IN FRONT OF ME. SOMETIMES IT WON'T EVEN COME ON WHEN A CAR IS IN FRONT OF ME.

VEHICLE WITH ONLY 75,00 MILES, RUNS ROUGH AND STALLS, WENT TO DEALER AND THEY SAY DUE TO LOW OIL AT SOME POINT THE TIMING CHAIN HAS STRETCHED AND NEEDS REPLACED ALONG WITH SENSORS AND ACTUATORS. TIMING CHAIN AND ASSOCIATED PARTS REPLACED TO THE TUNE OF $1715.00. I CHECK THE OIL AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN CHANGING IT. THIS LOOKS TO BE A FACTORY DEFECT. I HAVE SENT A LETTER TO GM FOR RESOLUTION AS WELL.

MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHILE TURNING A CORNER (POWERED OFF). I ALMOST HIT A TREE BECAUSE I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. ONCE I APPLIED THE BRAKE AND PUT IT INTO PARK, I WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT WITH NO APPARENT ISSUE.

AS I WAS DRIVING HOME AFTER WORK THE CAR JUST STARTED MAKING A NOISE AND CUT OF AND DID NOT START HAD TO TOW TO A GMC DEALER THAT SAID IT NEED A NEW ENGINE I AS DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET

DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY THIS PAST WEEK DURING A RAIN STORM, MY WIPER BLADES SUDDENLY SLIPPED OFF THE SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD AND WOULD NO LONGER MOVE. THEY BECAME STUCK LEANING OVER THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW. I TRIED TO PUSH THEM BACK BUT THEY WOULD NOT MOVE. I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR BUT THEY WERE IN A SET POSITION. I HAD TO GO TO AN AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR SHOP AND HAD THE WIPER TRANSMISSION REPLACED.U
