GMC Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE, THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT STRUCK A PARKED VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THAT THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP WAS DAMAGED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,499.

I HAD A TEMPORARY BRAKE FAILURE AT 25MPH WITH A HARD BRAKE. I HAD A CAR PULL OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND I HAD TO HARD BRAKE. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS SOFT AND WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH NO BRAKING UNTIL IT WAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND IT FINALLY WORKED WITH A SUDDEN STOP/JOLT. WHEN THIS HAPPENED IT MADE A LOW SORT OF ALMOST VIBRATION SOUND. I DID NOT FEEL A VIBRATION IN THE BRAKE PEDAL THOUGH. THE BRAKES WORKED WELL BEFORE THAT AND AFTER THAT. IF THE BRAKE WOULD HAVE NOT SUDDENLY GRABBED WHEN THE PEDAL WAS TO THE FLOOR I WOULD HAVE HIT THE CAR. I WAS GOING ABOUT 25MPH. I KNOW WHAT IT SOUNDS AND FEELS LIKE TO HAVE WORN BRAKES AND ROTORS. THIS WAS NOT IT. AGAIN IT WAS A TEMPORARY FAILURE AND AFTER THAT THE BRAKES ARE THEIR NORMAL FIRMNESS AND RESPONSIVENESS. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT VERY UNPREDICTABLE.

BRAKE PEDAL GETS HARD IN SLOW MOVING AND STOP & GO DRIVING CAUSING VEHICLE TO BE HARD TO STOP WITH NO BREAK POWER. THIS SITUATION GETS WORSE WHEN TOWING A TRAILER IN TRAFFIC AN DOWN HILL WHERE YOU NEED THE BRAKE POWER

I HAVE REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE TAILIGHT AND NOW THE DRIVER SIDE TAILIGHT IS NOT WORKING. THE TURN SIGNAL AND REVERSE LIGHT WORK BUT THE RED PART OF THE LIGHT WILL WORK AND THEN GO OUT.

DRIVER DOOR WILL LOCK AND UNLOCK ELECTRONICALLY BUT IF YOU TRY TO UNLOCK DOOR MANUALLY IT DOES NOT UNLOCK. IF CAR CRASHES PERSON COULD GET TRAPPED IF CAR IS ON FIRE COULD CAUSE A DEATH IF NO POWER TO ELECTRONIC LOCKS

FIRST WEEK OF OWNERSHIP I NOTICED THAT THE REAR WINDOW HAD A WATER LEAK BY REAR DRIVER SEAT. WHILE INSPECTING THE LEAK, I NOTICE THAT THE PAINT ON THE REAR BRAKE SPOILER ABOVE THE REAR WINDOW HAD TWO BLACK MARKS. BODY SHOP TECHNICIAN RUBBED HIS FINGERS ON THE SPOTS AND PAINT WAS RUBBING OFF. I STARTED TO RECEIVE 'SERVICE STEERING COLUMN LOCK' MESSAGES INTERMITTENTLY AND REGULARLY DURING STARTUP. HEATING INDICATOR LIGHTS FOR ALL THE SEATS DO NOT LIGHT UP TO INDICATE THEIR SETTINGS. THIS OCCURS WHILE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR ON THE ROAD. THE REAR BACKUP CAMERA SCREEN TURNS BLUE AND DISPLAYS 'SERVICE REAR BACKUP CAMERA' WHILE REVERSING AND IT OCCURS OCCASIONALLY.

BRAKES WERE VERY HARD TO APPLY AT SLOW SPEED. ALMOST CAUSED COLLISION WITH VEHICLE.

REAR PARKING/BRAKE LIGHT WENT OUT. DEALER SAYS THE FIX IS $800 PLUS LABOR TO FIX.

THIS MORNING ON MY WAY TO WORK ON 95 NORTH BOUND AND MY WIPER BLADES STOPPED WORKING. I WAS DOING ABOUT 65-70 MPH AND IT WAS POURING RAIN OUT AND I COULD BARELY SEE IN FRONT OF ME. IT WAS DEFINITELY DANGEROUS FOR ME TO KEEP DRIVING BUT I HAD TO GET TO WORK SO I CONTINUED TO DRIVE FOR ANOTHER 25 MILES WITH LIMITED VISIBILITY. I HAVE DONE LITTLE RESEARCH SO FAR BUT I DO BELIEVE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE LINKAGE IN THE WIPER BLADE ASSEMBLY. ANYWAYS THIS WAS VERY UNSAFE AND SHOULD BE RECTIFIED AND MADE KNOWN TO OTHER GMC TERRAIN OWNER BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR EVEN KILLED!

AFTER I PULL INTO MY DRIVEWAY AND PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND TURN OFF THE IGNITION THE CAR GETS STUCK IN PARK AND WONT SHIFT BACK OUT FOR HOURS. ALSO WHEN I'M DRIVING THE CAR STATES THAT THE ENGINE IS IN REDUCED POWER AND THE TRACTION CONTROL IS OFF AND TO SERVICE STABILITRAK. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE OF ALL YEARS FROM 2007 TO THE PRESENT IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED 6 DEATHS SO FAR AND STILL NO RECALL TO FIX MY CAR I DONT WANT TO END UP BEING ANOTHER DEATH IF YOU DONT FIX THIS ISSUE
