2011 GMC TERRAIN Complaints

DIAGNOSED WITH OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM, P0014 CODE FOR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, SHOWING 10 DEGREES ON SCANNER, RECOMMENDED TIMING CHAIN ALIGNMENT, MY CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING IT, GMC HAS CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, TOLD ME MY VIN WAS ELIGIBLE FOR IT, BUT WILL NOT LET ME SUBMIT A CLAIM, I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR A YEAR, CONSTANT OIL CHANGES ABOUT EVERY 2 MONTHS.

WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35 MPH ON BACK ROADS IN POURING RAIN WITH WIPERS ON HIGH, WHEN THE WIPERS STOPPED IN THE UP POSITION. NO OTHER CARS WHERE ON THE ROADS, AND WAS ONLY ABOUT 2 MILES FROM MY HOUSE, SO MADE IT HOME, BUT VERY SLOWLY. CAN HEAR WIPER MOTOR WORKING, BUT WIPER BLADE ARMS DO NOT MOVE, LIKE THEY HAVE BECOME UNATTACHED FROM WIPER MOTOR.

YET AGAIN, ANOTHER COSTLY ENGINE REPAIR. CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY, ENGINE SEEMED TO BE BACK FIRING. THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON (CODE P0016). GMC DEALER SAID THE TIMING CHAINS NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. $2300. YET, THEY WILL CREATE A RECALL FOR A SEAT. BUT NOT AN UNSAFE ENGINE. HOPE LIVES WON'T BE LOST, LIKE WITH THE IGNITION FISCAL. SMH.

VEHICLE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS IN LESS THAN 40 MINUTES ON A 70 MPH HIGHWAY. SPEED DETERIORATES AND CAN NO LONGER GO FASTER THAN 55 MPH. VEHICLE MUST BE PUT IN STATIONARY IN ORDER TO COOL TRANSMISSION. INCIDENT HAS REPEATED IN TWICE IN A MONTH.

HESITATION AND LAG ON ACCELERATION AFTER HARD OR QUICK BRAKE APPLICATION. FEELS LIKE ENGINE MOMENTARILY STALLING OR TRANS MISSION NOT ENGAGING FOR ONE OR TWO SECONDS.. HAPPENS WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, HAPPENS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, HAPPENS COMING OUT OF TURNS,ALSO IN STRAIGHT LINE MOTION. POSES A SAFETY RISK SUCH AS WHEN ENTERING AN INTERSECTION AND NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE THROUGH THE INTERSECTION TO AVOID COLLISION WITH OTHER VEHICLES CROSSING THAT INTERSECTION.

2.4 L 4 CYLINDER ENGINE , REAR MAIN SEAL LEAK, LEAKING A LOT OF OIL , GMC BULLETIN NUMBER 14882 , THEY HAVE HOUR SOME OF THEIR 2.4 ENGINE VEHICLE, I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM BASED ON MECHANIC DIAGNOSIS, PORING OIL OUT FROM MAIN SEAL BETWEEN ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION .LEAK CONTINUES AND THIS OIL LEAK GOES ALL THE WAY OF BACK OF VEHICLE, IT CAUSING ABS SENSOR READ WRONG, AT REAR AND ALSO SMOKES UNDER CAR BECAUSE LEAKS GOES TO EXHAUST UNIT.

REAR TAILGATE DOOR GOES UP FULLY, THEN COMES DOWN HALF WAY, BACKUP FULLY, THEN CLOSES ALL THE WAY DOWN. THIS HAPPENS WITH KEYLESS REMOTE, SWITCH INSIDE VEHICLE AND VEHICLE STARTED OR NOT STARTED.

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IT RAN GREAT. WITHIN A COUPLE OF WEEKS, IT STARTED STALLING WHEN I GO TO TAKE OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS OR PULLING OUT ONTO A ROAD. IT WILL RUN FINE I STOP IT IDLES OK AND WHEN I TOUCH THE GAS PEDAL IT WILL START OUT INTO THE ROAD AND THEN JUST DIE.
