2019 GMC ACADIA- CLAWSON, MI
When you go to park the car and put it in park the car says shift to park with it already being in park. It is concerning that the vehicle is not recognizing it being in park

2023 GMC SIERRA 1500- Huntsville, AL
I was driving on the interstate when my vehicle’s display indicated that I needed to press start and that is when I noticed the engine was not running. I had to quickly pull over moving three car lanes all while coasting and I came to a stop. I tried multiple times to restart but the engine would not restart. I still had electrical power and turned on my hazard lights and called for a tow truck.

2024 GMC YUKON- Manchester, TN
While driving down the interstate the vehicle lost power without warning and gave a command to "press start to resume" tried to do that but nothing happened. Eventually we were able to get over to the shoulder of the interstate which was super busy in Atlanta. Once we stopped, we shut off the vehicle and it started back up, and we proceeded to get back on the interstate, when the same thing happened. We stopped again, waiting a few minutes and were able to get back on the interstate and complete out trip without any issues. 3 days later while driving on the interstate again, the vehicle had a weird winding noise coming from it. Once I was able to get off the instate the engine was knocking very loudly and had no power. Got the vehicle to our home and had it towed to the dealership the next day. Dealership gave the diagnoses that a new engine, radiator and engine coolant lines needed to be replaced. The vehicle had 2,248 miles on it and was purchase 2.5 weeks prior. No eta on when we will have a new engine and our vehicle back.

2024 GMC SIERRA 1500- Anchorage, AK
Driving on the highway, moving to pass another vehicle, engine shut off forcing me to coast to the shoulder. No warnings and didn't notice loss of power until I saw that the vehicle had been shifted into neutral. Had 2 kids in the truck and could not get GMC service department on the phone, had to walk up an onramp in order to get my kids home with me in an Uber. This is a 2024 6.2L GMC with only 13,000 miles. Service department took over a week to check initial issues, said it was a fuse block which they replaced. Did not resolve the issue, then it was the starter, which did not resolve the issue, after 2 weeks they told me the engine was locked up due to internal failure and it will be several months before the truck is operable. GM has stated they the issue needs to occur 4 times before a buyback would be considered.

2021 GMC YUKON XL- Anderson, SC
The 6.2 engine started ticking now. It needs to be rebuilt. It's ridiculous. We service it every 3000 miles. Our 2017 Sierra had a valve stick that ruined the cam. It has the same 6.2 engine with only 78,000 miles on it.
