2015 GMC TERRAIN Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC TERRAIN. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO OPERATE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED JOE LUNGHAMER CHEVROLET (475 SUMMIT DR, WATERFORD TWP, MI 48328, (248) 683-7100) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE WIPER MOTOR NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000. *BF *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT NIGHT DURING A THUNDERSTORM WITH EXTREMLY LOW VISIBILITY WHEN, WITHOUT NOTICE, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS ABRUPTLY STOPPED WORKING. THERE WERE NO PRIOR WARNINGS. I HAD TO INCH MY WAY TO SAFETY TO AVOID BEING HIT. THE WIPERS WILL NOT COME ON, BUT A HUMMING SOUND IS DETECTABLE. THE REPAIR SHOP SPECULATES THAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE MOTOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC TERRAIN. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH IN THE RAIN, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO PULL THE VEHICLE OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ONCE THE RAIN DISSIPATED, THE CONTACT DROVE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BALL JOINTS CONNECTED TO THE WIPERS WERE DISJOINTED. THE WIPERS WERE REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000.

POWER LIFT GATE WILL NOT OPEN. THE LIFT GATE WAS WORKING BUT WOULD NOT STAY IN THE UP POSITION. I HAD TO REPLACE THE LIFT GATE SUPPORT STRUT. AFTER REPLACING THE RIGHT STRUT THE GATE WOULD NOT OPEN USING THE KEY FOB, OR THE BOTTON INSIDE OF VEHICLE, NOR WILL IT LIFT WHEN USING THE BOTTON ON THE GATE.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY I ALREADY HAD MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS GOING AND TURNED THEM UP HIGHER, THE WIPER WENT TOO FAR OVER MY WINDSHIELD AND GOT CAUGHT ON THE OTHER SIDE OF MY CAR. PUT IT BACK INTO PLACE BUT WASN'T MOVING. MULTIPLE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS LATER THEY MOVE AGAIN. THEY WIPERS WERE PUT ON PROPERLY AND HAD BEEN FINE FOR MONTHS PRIOR ON THE LOWER SETTING, SO THIS HAS TO BE A MANUFACTURING ERROR, I HOPE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC TERRAIN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH IN THE RAIN, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER TO A SAFE LOCATION AND TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE VIA ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. THE CONTACT CALLED RAY SKILLMAN HOOSIER FORD AT (765-342-3673, LOCATED AT 333 ROBERT CURRY DR, MARTINSVILLE, IN 46151) AND SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 90,000.

I HAVE HAD MY TERRAIN FOR A LITTLE OVER TWO YEARS NOW IT ONLY HAS 71,000 MILES BEING A 2015 AND IT HAS STARTED TO STALL OUT ON ME. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I JUST GOT GAS AND THOUGHT MAYBE I DIDNT HAVE MY CAR IN PARK. NOT EVEN TWO WEEKS LATER IT HAPPENED AS I WAS PARKED AT THE GROCERY STORE AND WENT TO TAKE OFF, IT JUST STALLED ON ME! IT'S HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY AND EVEN JUST TURNED OFF ON ME AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOT ON, WE HAVE EVEN PLACED LUCAS IN IT TO SEE IF THAT WOULD WORK.

DRIVING HOME AND WIPERS COMPLETELEY WENT OUT IN THE RAIN AND PULLED OVER TO AVOID ACCIDENT UNTIL IT STOPPED RAINING, WAS TERRIFIED THAT THIS CAN HAPPEN. THEY NEVER FIXED THIS PROBLEM IN EARLIER YEARS AND RECALLED THE TERRAIN IN CANADA BUT NOT USA.

I WAS DRIVING IN A RAINSTORM WITH MY FAMILY ON A COUNTY ROAD AND OUR WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING AND FROZE. WITH THE DOWNPOUR, THERE WAS NO VISIBILITY TO CONTINUE DRIVING. I MANAGED TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, ALTHOUGH IT WAS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THE ROAD. ONCOMING TRAFFIC MADE THE EXPERIENCE VERY STRESSFUL AND AN ACCIDENT COULD HAVE EASILY OCCURRED. WE WAITED UNTIL THE RAIN SUBSIDED AND MADE IT TO A CAR REPAIR PLACE. THEY SAID IT WAS MORE THAN LIKELY THE FAULTY WINDSHIELD WIPER LINKAGE THAT CAUSED IT TO MALFUNCTION. OUR CAR ENGINE WAS RUNNING FINE, BUT ONLY THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE NOT WORKING. THIS INCIDENT AND THE POTENTIAL DANGER IT PLACED US WAS AS STRESSFUL AND CAUSED AS MUCH ANXIETY AS ACTUALLY HAVING AN ACCIDENT. HAD THE RAIN NOT STOPPED, WE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO EVEN DRIVE BACK HOME.

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN NOV. 2018. TWO MONTHS LATER I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE STABILI TRAK. I HAVE HAD IT IN THE SHOP AT THE GMC DEALER TWICE. ALL CODES PASSED BECAUSE THE STABILI TRAK LIGHT TURNS OFF. BOTH RPM AND SPEEDOMETER NEEDLES GO UP AND DOWN REAL FAST. SOMETIMES THEY STAY AT 0 AND I START LOOSING POWER. IF I'M STOPPED, IT TAKES FOREVER FOR IT TO GAIN ANY SPEED. I TURN IT OFF AND RESTART IT ONLY FOR IT TO START ALL OVER AGAIN. I TURNED IT OFF ONCE AND TRIED TO RESET AND COMPLETELY DEAD. THIRD TIME IT STARTED. DASH LIGHTS GO FROM DIM TO BRIGHT AND BACK. THE DEALER SAID THEY CANT FIND THE CODES IF THE STABILI TRACK LIGHT ISN'T ON, YET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. IT IS GETTING WORSE, ALMOST EVERY DAY. BUT THE STABILI TRAK LIGHT DOESN'T STAY ON LONG ENOUGH
