GMC Complaints

BRAKES BECOME HARD TO PUSH WHEN GOING BELOW 5MPH AND DOESN'T WANT TO STOP WHEN PRESSED. SOMETIMES YOU PRESS BRAKES AND PUSH AS HARD AS YOU CAN AND IT JUST KEEPS MOVING UNTIL HE SLOWLY COMES TO A STOP. IT HAPPENS WHEN TRAVELING AT A LOW SPEED OR EVEN AT A STOP AND YOU NEED TO BARELY MOVE FORWARD OR BACKWARD. MAKES IT HARD TO PARK IN TIGHT SPACES, MOVE IN TRAFFIC, AND IN A DRIVE-THRU. IT WILL HAPPEN MOVING FORWARD OR BACKWARD - THAT DOESN'T MATTER IT ALSO HAPPENS WHEN YOU COME TO A STOP AND BARELY MOVE AGAIN AND NEED TO STOP - BRAKES BECOME HARD AND IT STOPS ON ITS OWN TIME. I EVEN HAD IT HAPPEN WHEN I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT ON DOWNWARD HILL AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME STARTED MOVING AND SUDDENLY STOPPED AGAIN AND MY CAR DIDN'T WANT TO STOP. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME SINCE AROUND NOV 2018. IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE

WE HAVE A 2007 GMC ENVOY, INTERMITTENTLY OUR HEADLAMPS AND DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS WOULD CUT OFF AND ON, SOMETIMES WHILE WE HAVE BEEN DRIVING IN THE CITY AND ON THE HIGHWAY AND SOMETIMES RIGHT WHEN WE PUT THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE BEFORE WE MOVE. ABOUT A WEEK AGO THEY CUT OFF AND HAVE NOT EVER CUT BACK ON. WE FOUND ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE THAT THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL FOR THE HEADLAMPS AND DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS ON 2006 - 2007 GMC ENVOYS, THE RECALL IS FOR THE HEADLAMP MODULE. WE CONTACTED OUR LOCAL DEALER ABOUT GETTING THE RECALL REPAIRED BUT WERE TOLD OUR "VIN" WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. WE ALSO CONTACTED GM DIRECTLY AND SPENT OVER AN HOUR ON THE PHONE WITH THEIR CUSTOMER SUPPORT AS WELL AS A SUPERVISOR ONLY TO BE TOLD OVER AND OVER THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO HELP. WE TOOK OUR VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR SINCE IT IS ILLEGAL TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITHOUT HEADLIGHTS, AFTER THEY DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE WITH OUR 2007 GMC ENVOY THEY REPORTED THAT THE PROBLEM WITH OUR 2007 GMC ENVOY IS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS THE ONES THAT ARE COVERED IN THE RECALL, THE HEADLAMP MODULE IS BAD! WE ONCE AGAIN CALLED GM, GAVE THEM THE DIAGNOSES BUT ONCE AGAIN THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO! NEEDLESS TO SAY WE ARE BEYOND FRUSTRATED.

MY AIR BAG / SEAT BELT KEEP LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON . CODE B001B AIR BAG PASSENGER SEAT ANCHOR PRETENSION DEPLOYMENT LOOP. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD THAT SHOULD HAVE A RECALL.

THE BRAKE LIGHTS WORK SOMETIMES AND THEN DON'T, THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE. IF THEY STOP WORKING WHILE DRIVING THIS COULD KILL ME OR ANOTHER DRIVER OR SOMEONES PASSENGER(S).

MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT UNLOCK FOR HOURS THEN IT FINALLY DID AND RAN FOR A BIT. THEN WHEN STARTED AGAIN WOULD NOT N. THEN WENT TO BRI G IT IN AND NOTHING WORKED CORRECT. THE SPEEDOMETER WAS AT 0 AND IT WAS SCARY! THE WHOLE VEHICLE WOULD NOT WORK RIGHT AND WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN THEY SAID IT WAS A SIDE SENSOR MODULE AND IT WAS $735 TO REPLACE. MY CAR IS NOT THAT OLD. THEY SAID WETNESS COULD HAVE GOT TO IT. WE LIVE IN MIN EDITS. MANY CARS GET WET. THAT IS ABSOLUTELY CRAZY. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THEY SHARE SOPOSE TO BE COMING OUT WITH A RECALL AND NEW BOXES THAT COVER THESE SENSORS. I WILL BE EXPECTING TO BE REIMBURSED WHEN THIS BECOMES A RECALL WHICH IT DEFIANTLY NEEDS TO BE! I PAID A LOT OF MONEY FOR THIS VEHICLE. THE PRICE OF MINE SHOULD BE ON THIS!

STEERING GETS STIFF INTERMITTENTLY. STEERING GLITCHES (HARD TO TURN) AT TIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF TURNING. HAPPENS IN MOTION TAKING TURNS ON SURFACE STREETS AND HIGHWAYS CHANGING LANES AND TAKING CORNERS. IT HAS NOW HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES.

MY 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500 (APPROXIMATELY 45,000 MILES) HAD A DEFECT THAT CAUSED THE AC SYSTEM TO CRACK AND LEAK REFRIGERANT, LOSE PRESSURE, AND FAIL TO PROPERLY FUNCTION. WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A CERTIFIED GM SERVICE CENTER ON 4/11/19, THREE OTHER SIMILAR VEHICLES (MAKE/MODEL/YEAR) WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. UPON CONDUCTING FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THIS ISSUE IS WIDESPREAD AMONGST SIMILAR YEAR GMC SIERRA AND CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 PICKUPS. SO MUCH SO THAT SOME AREAS ARE EXPERIENCING AC CONDENSER REPLACEMENT PART SHORTAGES. MY VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND GM REFUSED TO ASSIST WITH THE OVER $1,200 REPAIR BILL.

I NOTICED A CRACK TO THE RIGHT OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND THEN LATER NOTICED A CRACK NEAR THE PASSENGER-SIDE FRONTAL AIRBAG WHEN MY SUV HAD ABOUT 59,000 MILES ON IT. THE CRACKS HAVE GROWN AND ARE NOW CAUSING COMPLETE SEPARATION. I TOOK MY YUKON TO EWING GMC ON 4/29/2019 WHERE THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW HOWEVER IT WASN;T CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE AND THUS NOT COVERED. THEY QUICKLY HANDED ME A $1200 QUOTE TO REPLACE IT. I DO NOT SEE HOW A SEPARATED DASH (ESPECIALLY NEAR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG) IS NOT A SAFETY CONCERN. IF MY PASSENGER AIRBAG GOES OFF WITH THE DASHBOARD IN THE STATE IT IS NOW, DANGEROUS SHARDS OF PLASTIC FROM THE DASHBOARD WILL GO FLYING AND BECOME POTENTIALLY LETHAL PROJECTILES.

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

THE SEALS ON THE FRONT END SUSPENSION SHOCKS - SEALS ARE BROKEN ON BOTH FRONT SETS GREASE IS LEAKING OUT OF THEM AND CAUSING A ROUGH RIDE WITH NOISE WHEN YOU GO OVER BUMP
