GMC Complaints

SIDE BLIND SPOT DETECTION MODULES NOT WORKING. THIS CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD IN GENERAL, BUT CAUSES AN ELECTRICAL SHORT INTERNALLY AND CAUSES OTHER ELECTRUCAL PARTS TO MALFUNCTION SUCH AS: AIR BAGS IGNITION BLINKERS REAR BACK UP CAMERA FRONT CRASH DETECTION THESE ARE ALL MAJOR SAFETY ISSUES THAT HAPPEN ON THE ROAD, IN MOTION FOR MY FAMILY IN THE CAR AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. WE NEED TO GET IT FIXED BUT, PARTS ARE BACK ORDERED AND NOT AVAILABLE FOR ALMOST 6 MONTHS NOW. IT'S A $1200 REPAIR AND IS RE OCCURRING PROBLEM FROM WHAT THE DEALER HAS SAID.. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN SERVICE FOR JUST OVER 3 YEARS AND SHOULD BE SAFE TO DRIVE FOR A MUCH LONGER DURATION THAN THAT. THANKS

TAKARA RECALL. MY SERVICE POWER STEERING ON MY 2016 GMC CANYON IS COMING ON. I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS AND THAT THE 2015 CANYON HAD A RECALL. I'M HOPING THAT YOU WILL FIX THIS ISSUE, BEFORE SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS. I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND THEY PUT THE COMPUTER ON IT AND IT SAYS THAT A POOR CIRCUIT IS CAUSING THIS. CAN YOU HELP ME OUT? THANK YOU.

2049151 I WOULD LIKE MY FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACED BEFORE IT KILLS OR SERIOUS INJURES SOMEONE. I WAS FIRST NOTIFIED OF THIS PROBLEM A LONG TIME AGO.

THIS TRUCK HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH WATER GETTING INTO IT DURING HEAVY RAIN SINCE BOUGHT NEW. IT SEEMS TO OCCUR AT THE FRONT DOOR AREA NEAR THE WINDSHIELD. WHEN THE TRUCK IS OUTSIDE IN THE RAIN, THERE WILL BE WATER SOAKING ALL THE FLOOR BOARDS. THIS HAS LED TO STINKING ISSUES AND MOLD/MILDEW. THEY HAVE REFUSED TO FIX IT BECAUSE IT HASN'T BEEN RECALLED. IT HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE AND THE LAST VERY HEAVY DOWNPOUR WE HAD, THE FLOORBOARDS AND WINDSHIELD WERE FROZEN. THIS IS A $60,000 PLUS TRUCK. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT WE HAVE TO KEEP IT COVERED OR IN A CARPORT FOR FEAR OF WATER SEEPING INTO IT. THE VEHICLE IS PARKED IN HEAVY RAIN WHEN THIS HAPPENS.

ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE ENTIRE DASH BLACKED OUT FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN WOULD GO THRU CHECKS AS IT WOULD COME BACK ON. THE MORNING I TOOK IT TO DEALER, THE PROBLEM STOPPED. THEY COULD FIND NOTHING. TWO DAYS AGO WHILE DRIVING VERY SLOW (MAYBE 10 MPH) IN HEAVY TRAFFIC THE DASH BEGAN GOING THRU ITS CHECKS AGAIN. I STOPPED AND WENT INTO A GAS STATION FOR A COUPLE OF MINS, RETURNED AND COULD NOT UNLOCK THE FRONT DOORS WITH MY KEY FOB. GOT INTO THE VEHICLE AND IT WOULD NOT START, NOR DID IT CRANK (NO SOUND). AFTER TRYING SEVERAL TIMES, IT DID START. O'REILLY AUTO PARTS CHECKED IT AND SAID THAT MY STARTER WAS BAD. THEY DID NOT HAVE ONE IN STOCK. I RETURNED TO THE CAR AND WHEN IT FINALLY STARTED, THE RADIO DID NOT COME ON. AFTER A FEW RE-STARTS, THE RADIO DID COME ON. RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM, AND FOUND A VIDEO ON THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL THAT MENTIONED A RECALL. CHECKED MY VIN, NO RECALL, BUT VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY. HOPEFULLY THEY WILL FIND THE ISSUE AND FIX THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V088000 (FUEL SYSTEM) EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR REPAIR. THE CONTACT RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE IN FEBRUARY OF 2019. SPRINGFIELD BUICK GMC (431 RIVER ST, NORTH SPRINGFIELD, VT 05150) STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE TO PERFORM THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

WARNING BELLS START CHIMING, 5.3 ENGINE WITH AFM STARTS RUNNING ROUGH, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE SUSPENSION SYSTEM,ABS LIGHTS COME ON. THESE SYMTOMS OCCUR WITHIN SECONDS OF STARTING. DIAGNOSTICS SAYS DIFFERENT THINGS EACH TIME SUCH AS MISFIRES, WORN CAM, ETC. THE ENGINE ONLY HAS 140K MILES. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS ENGINE. GM DID OFFER NUMEROUS CUSTOMERS REPLACEMENT ENGINES UNDER 150K MILES. I CAN'T GET THE DEALER TO OWN UP TO THIS.

POWER BREAKING FAILS WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, BRAKE PEDAL STIFF AND HARD TO PUSH DOWN TO STOP VEHICLE IN BOTH FORWARD AND REVERSE DIRECTIONS WHEN INCHING FORWARD AT A STOP LIGHT/SIGN, OR PARKING IN A PARKING LOT IN FORWARD AND REVERSE CAR KEEPS MOVING. STOPPING REQUIRED VERY HARD PUSH ON THE STIFF BRAKE PEDAL.. BRAKING AT HIGHER SPEEDS LESS AFFECTED BUT SUDDEN STOPS CAN REQUIRE MORE FORCE THAN USUAL AS THE CAR SLOWS DOWN. PROBLEM BEGAN DECEMBER 2017 RARELY AND INTERMITTENTLY, AND INCREASED TO ALL THE TIME BY FEBRUARY 2019 AT LOW SPEEDS THE POWER BRAKE DID NOT WORK AND REQUIRED MUCH FORCE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP VEHICLE EVERY TIME. BRAKE FLUID WAS FINE AND SO WAS BRAKE PADS. GM DEALERSHIP VISIT SHOWED A FAILURE OF THE VACUUM PUMP FOR BRAKE LINE AND THEY INSTALLED A REDESIGNED PUMP WHICH SHOWS THAT THE ORIGINAL HAS FAULTY DESIGN. THEY ALSO REQUIRED A BELT THAT OPERATES PUMP TO BE REPLACED AS WELL. THIS SEEMS TO HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR NOW BUT THIS REPAIR HAS A TWO YEAR GUARANTEE. PRICE FOR ME TO FIX OVER $881+TAX.
