GMC Complaints

Alignment Cam Guide Pins sheared off while driving on highway. Alignment went all over the place and car was drifting side to side. Also, steering wheel spun a quarter turn while car was not turning but still driving on highway. Almost caused me to crash. GMC does not want to acknowledge the issue or allow me to file a warranty claim. Car could not be driven to GM dealership safely and had to be repaired at closest shop

The harness that hooks to bumper plug for trailer lighting is not completely water tight. Allows water in and creates buildup that weakens the connection as well as allows the plug wire connection to snap out and push out from the pin. Further inspection it was causing a short in the system. I attempted to clean and put some-electric grease on the plug to help clean it but then relaized 3 pins were broken and pushed back.

Rack and pinion sudden failure. I lost control of the vehicle almost going off the road .

The theft alarm has gone off five times since I purchased the vehicle in September, dealership has been noted and has been in there for it and still goes off. Display screen froze up and did not reset until I was done driving and the vehicle was turned off for a while. The crash detection light came on and vehicle stopped itself with nobody in front of me or anybody coming towards me. The dealership has had the car for two weeks now, and they say there’s still no fix for it.

I bought car from a used car dealer ship. And didn’t really notice it had an air bag light on the cluster . Because newer vehicles the our bags stay off for passenger side if know one is in the seat. So that’s what I thought it was til I had it put on a computer. And it say it’s a sensor for passenger side air bag

Vehicle has excessive oil consumption. Within 5000k oil change interval, no oil on dip stick around 3000k miles.

Without any notice the stabila track and service power stealing message will come on while driving and the power steering will stop working. While researching it looks like this issue was resolved with a recall on the 2015 models which has the same components as the 2016 version. This is a life-threatening issue and it looks like many are online sharing the same concern and asking for a recall.
