    - LAS VEGAS, NV

    On or around July 12th 2025 at low speed of 2-4 mph my rear end locked up sending everyone in the vehicle hard stop forward. The vehicle wouldn't disengage leaving me no choice but to have it towed for the second time 1st time happened exactly the same about month and a half prior. Gmc service department department claims they couldn't find anything wrong after it sat for two days in there lot after having it towed they were closed weekends and looked at it that Monday morning finding no signs of anything wrong. After picking up my vehicle I strongly feel like if at higher speeds or even environment this issue will endanger myself passengers and bystanders. I need help with resolving this safety issues asap please. Gmc hasn't been much help service department nor Gm support options.

    I purchased my GMC Sierra AT4 from your Oman GMC distributor called Moosa Abdulrehman Hassan. The vehicle suddenly stops and transmission automatically shift from 'D' driving mode to 'N' natural. First it happened when the vehicle driven 200km only when I took it to dealer Moosa Abdulrehman Hassan, they re-programmed the vehicle and doesn't know what the problem is. Second time happened when the vehicle was driven approx. 1,600 km and 3rd time again happened on [XXX], engine stopped and transmission shifted automatically from D to N, I have to start the engine and continue my journey. Again, I brought the vehicle to GMC dealer Moosa Abdulrehman Hassan. They kept the vehicle for almost one week and unable to demonstrate or diagnose the problem and asked me to collect the vehicle. Its high risk to drive the vehicle, when suddenly the engine stops and the gear shift from 'D' to 'N' while driving. I had option to choose, Ford 150 or Dodge Ram I bought GMC because it suppose to be reliable and have the best safety features. But I really regret now why I have purchased it, there are no technicians in Oman with GMC dealer to identify and fix the problem. I can't drive the vehicle in such condition, risking my life and life of other drivers on the road. The vehicle is parked in my Garage, it new vehicle just completed 1800 km. The the dealer the solution is very simple, either fix the issue, or replace the car or refund my money back, the dealer is not doing any of these. Before taking legal action and reporting it to the court, which will bring shame to GMC reputed brand. I though I'll give my final try to report it to you. You are the manufacturer may be have a solution. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
