WHILE COASTING ON THE SHOULDER I TRIED SHIFTING TO OTHER GEARS - RECEIVED POWER ON SECOND GEAR HOWEVER RUBBING NOISE AND HARDLY ANY POWER.

ENGINE STARTED BY ITSELF WHILE CAR WAS IN THE GARAGE. ENGINE WAS RACING. GARAGE WAS EXTREMELY HOT FROM ENGINE RUNNING. KEY WAS IN IGNITION BUT PULLED OUT SO THE ALARM WOULDN'T DING. DOORS WERE NOT LOCKED (NEED TO BE LOCKED FOR REMOTE ENGINE START TO WORK). OPENED DRIVER DOOR, REACHED FOR KEYS AND THEY FELL OUT IN MY HAND AND THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN BY ITSELF. WE WILL TAKE THE CAR TO PIERCE DODGE/GM RONAN, MT FOR EVALUATION. *TR

THE TRANSMISSION WAS LEAKING AND RECALLED AND THAT WAS FIXED BY GM. THE BRAKE LIGHTS SOMETIMES OVER HEAT AND I HAD TO REPLACE THE SADDLES ON THEM. I DO NOT EVEN KNOW THEY GO OUT BUT I HAVE PEOPLE HONKING AT ME THAT I HAVE NO LIGHTS IN THE REAR. NOW WITH MY WARRANTY OUT AND HAVE 86.000 MILES ON IT THE FUEL PUMP IS OUT ON THE VEHICLE AT A 700 DOLLAR COST. THE DOOR KNOB FELL OFF, I HAVE OIL PRESSURE ISSUES ALL OF THE TIME. LAST NOVEMBER THE DRIVE SHAFT FELL OFF AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND HAD TO PICK IT UP OFF OF THE INTERSTATE WHICH SOMEONE COULD HAVE GOTTEN HURT. BRAKE ISSUES. WHEN YOU SPEND 48,000 DOLLARS ON A VEHICLE IT MAKES YOU SAD THAT GM DOES NOTHING TO HELP THEIR CUSTOMERS. MAYBE THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD NOT HELP THEM ANYMORE. TODAY THEY WANTED ME TO TAKE IT TO GM AND PAY 200 DOLLARS FOR A DIAGNOSIS. JUST MORE MONEY IN THEIR POCKET. I WANT TO ANOTHER SHOP FOR ADVISE. THIS CAR IS DEFINITELY A DISAPPOINTMENT ND LEMON. *TR

ENGINE OIL LOW ADD OIL LIGHT COMES ON. VEHICLE USES OVER A QUART OF OIL EVERY 2000 MILES.

LOW OIL LIGHT FLASHES. OIL IS LOW A QUART TO A QUART AND A HALF EVERY THOUSAND MILES. THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT STATES THERE IS NO OIL PRESSURE AND TO SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. RECENTLY BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND NOW THE DEALER STATES IT MAY BE AN INTERNAL ENGINE PROBLEM. NO DEFINITIVE DIAGNOSIS AND IT IS VERY COSTLY. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR YEARS.... *TR

I WENT TO THE MALL YESTERDAY AND MY CAR STARED SHAKING THE MALL IS 4 MILES AWAY FROM MY HOUSE. I WAS DRIVING THROUGH THIS INTERSECTION ON THE WAY HOME AND I HEARD A HORRIBLE POP AND SAW SOMETHING FLY IN THE AIR AND FALL OFF OF MY CAR. IT WAS THE DRIVER SHAFT AND THAT PART WAS LAYING IN THE ROAD ABOUT 4 FEET LONG AND IF SOMEONE WOULD HAVE RAN OVER IT I BELIEVE IT COULD HAVE CAUSED INJURY TO SOMEONE. THIS CAR HAS HAD SO MANY ISSUES. FROM TAIL LIGHTS GOING OUT AT ONE TIME, THE DOOR KNOB FALLING OFF, THE ARM OF THE SEAT BROKE AND NOW THE HEAD LIGHT JUST WENT OUT. BRAKE ISSUES AND I CALLED GMC TO TELL THEM THAT THIS PART FELL OFF AND THEY WERE NOT SURE IF IT IS UNDER WARRANTY. NOTHING EVER IS BUT IT IS SAD TO SPEND THIS KIND OF MONEY ON A VEHICLE AND HAVE SO MANY ISSUES WITH IT. WE BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW. I WAS SHAKING FROM THIS INCIDENT AND HAD THE CAR TOWED AWAY. *TR
