Summary

The ball joint on the windshield wipers failed (mid rain storm on the highway) causing the wipers to fail. There is a recall for this issue on 2013 GMC Terrains, but not on any other model years. The vehicle is being repaired at a dealership for $650CAD, can upload invoice if needed after completion. The part is available for inspection. Not being able to see at night, on the highway and in a rainstorm put not only myself and passenger at risk, but also all the vehicles travelling on the highway with me. The part has not been inspected by anyone except a GM mechanic. No warning at all prior to this failure.

Summary

While driving on a major North Carolina highway at the posted speed limit of 65mph during a rain storm the windshield wipers stopped and froze in the middle of the windshield. The wipers would not operate at all and necessitated attempting to move from the middle lane to the berm with no visibility. This was a danger to other vehicles in the right lane and to the vehicle being driven. I pulled off the highway and waited until it stopped raining. Vehicle was then driven to the nearest exit and closest repair shop, which was a tire and repair shop. The manager said the vehicle has had recalls for the wiper motor and said to bring it to an authorized GMC dealer. This has not occurred to date as the weather is not clear. No other warnings, lights, or indicators occurred prior to the wiper motor failure.

Summary

Around 76k miles the vehicle started to stall, the engine completely stopped while in drive. The vehicle was burning oil and had terrible gas milage prior to stalling incidents. The first time it stalled was at an intersection with a traffic light, when we went to slow down the engine completely shut down. My infant daughter was in the car with me and it was terrifying. We would have been hit had the light not been turning red. After that we recognized that it typically stalled after starting the car and attempting to accelerate. At times it happened when pulling out of a parking lot onto a busy street and I would loose engine power. This was extremely scary due to not being able to get out of the way of oncoming traffic. I had to put my flashers on and roll to the side of the road where I could restart the car. The engine ran really loud and rough when the issue first started and even after repairs the engine is still loud when first starting from cold. After time the issue persisted and I noticed that after the first start and stall if I revved the engined hard it did not stall a second or third time. Prior to that there were times the vehicle stalled 2-3 times after first start. The first time I took it to a garage (79k) there was a check engine light on and they diagnosed a sensor that needed to be changed. The problem persisted after the sensor was changed. I contacted another local garage who said there are known engine issues with this make and model and they wouldn't touch it and suggested taking it to the dealer. The dealer said they are familiar with this issue and the engine needed to be rebuilt for $4500. This was quite a shock given the car only had 88k miles on it at the time we contacted the dealer. After the dealer repairs the engine no longer stalls. Recalls on this model only go through 2013. The date on my radio resets to October 13, 2013 when the battery is disconnected so it seems this issue is persisting in models not included in the lawsuit.

I was driving to physical therapy when a heavy downpour started. I had the wipers going full speed and still could barely see the road, when all of a sudden both wipers just stopped in the middle of the windshield and would not work. I could hear the motor still running and spinning, but the wipers wouldn’t move. I had it looked at and the wiper linkage arm had popped off and the ball joints and sockets are all worn out.

Summary

On 7/30/21 was driving on freeway going about 60mph in a heavy rainstorm when wiper blades suddenly stopped working in the middle of my windshield. Nearly crashed the car due to extremely poor visibility. This was a horrifying and dangerous safety issue. Had to pull over to side of the road out of traffic and wait for the rain to stop. I was in the middle of an 8 hour road trip and still had 4 hours of driving to go. Upon investigation when turning the blades on you can hear the motor working but no movement of the blades. Thankfully no one got hurt in this event. This happened shortly after hitting 100k miles.

Summary

On an extremely rainy day, the windshield wipers stopped working. My son was driving the car, and his safety was extremely compromised. He could not see out the windshield at all, and he was lucky that he was in a position to get to the side of the road without incident. If he were on a highway, it would have been extremely dangerous. This occurred on July 8th, 2021. There were no warnings that precipitated the problem. The wipers were working fine. We went to our mechanic who had to replace the entire windshield wiper mechanism due to corroded joints. We paid approximately $260. The mechanic said this is a very common problem with GM wipers. We did not keep the damaged part... we did not know that this was a safety issue with other model GMC Terrains until today. Clearly, it is a widespread problem, and there should be a recall, as this is extremely dangerous

Summary

I was driving to work during a rain storm. I drove for about 25 minutes until I reached the highway. I merged onto the highway behind a tractor trailer. There was enough spray that I needed to put the wipers on high speed. After driving for a few minutes the wipers came down and stopped halfway. I was able to pull over on the shoulder and tried to determine what happen. I turned wipers off and on and could hear the wiper motor whirring. Motor worked but wipers did not engage. I got out of the vehicle and pushed the wipers down and they moved freely telling me they are not connected to the motor. This was very dangerous and scary! I am now in need of repairing this issue.

Summary

For the last 6 months my vehicle has excessive oil consumption 1/4 to 1/2 quart of oil every week. When it starts up it sounds like a diesel engine. In 2019 it did the same using about a 1/2 quart every 3 weeks. We have kept an eye on it ever since as over time it has increased oil consumption and just recently found out this is a problem for many others as well. We have always kept the oil changed when due per mileage sticker and vehicle oil life indicator.

Summary

While driving in a rainstorm, the wipers stopped working. This caused my visibility to suddenly become extremely compromised. A tractor trailer was in front of me and spraying water from the tires due to heavy rain as well. I had to pull over, under an over pass, and wait out the rain. This is extremely dangerous in of itself to be on the side of a major highway. I have since investigated and found the ball joint connection to the wiper arm corroded and broke off. The wiper motor still runs. This is identical to the 2013 GMC terrain issue.

EARLIER THIS MONTH WHILE DRIVING, OUR GMC TERRAIN BEGAN SHUDDERING WHILE IN LINE AT A DRIVE-THROUGH. A FEW DAYS LATER WHILE DRIVING, IT DIED AT A STOPLIGHT, AND WHEN RESTARTED, IMMEDIATELY DISPLAYED A WARNING THAT THERE WAS REDUCED POWER DUE TO AN OIL ISSUE. WE WERE NOT DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A BODY SHOP WHO INFORMED US THAT IT WAS LEAKING OIL DRASTICALLY AND HAD A LEAK IN THE REAR MAIN SEAL. WE WERE TOLD IT WAS DUE TO THE COLD WEATHER AND THAT WE WERE THE THIRD GMC TERRAIN HE HAD SEEN IN 24 HOURS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. WE HAD TO TAKE IT TO A LARGER SHOP FOR THE REPAIR WORK, WHICH TOTALLED $2,407.33 TO REPAIR. THE SHOP SAID THE PCV SYSTEM FROZE AND CAUSED THE REAR MAIN SEAL TO BLOW OUT. THEY ALSO TOLD US THERE WERE MULTIPLE OTHER GMC TERRAINS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I LATER LEARNED THAT GMC HAD TO ISSUE A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE FOR TERRAINS FROM 2010-2013. THIS WAS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. THE SPECIAL COVERAGE NOTES THAT "GMC TERRAIN VEHICLE MAY EXPERIENCE A FROZEN PCV SYSTEM DURING COLD WEATHER OPERATION. THIS MAY INCREASE CRANKCASE PRESSURE LEADING TO A REAR SEAL OIL LEAK." THE PART NUMBER THEY REQUIRED TO BE REPLACED WAS THE SAME PART NUMBER WE HAD REPLACED.

"SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM" WARNING UPON STARTUP AND SPORADICALLY WHEN DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEEDS. THE BLIND SPOT MONITOR LIGHTS IN THE SIDE MIRRORS DO NOT FUNCTION ANYMORE. UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, BOTH SIDES USED TO ILLUMINATE WHILE RUNNING THRU SYSTEMS CHECK. NOW ONLY THE DRIVER'S SIDE LIGHTS UP. TO CONFIRM, THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING DOES NOT WORK FOR EITHER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE NOW. THE SENSOR IS UNDERNEATH THE REAR BUMPER COVER, EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS. THERE ARE SEVERAL FORUMS MENTIONING THIS ON THE GMC TERRAIN DENALI MODEL ALONG WITH CADILLAC AND CHEVROLET MODELS THAT HAVE THE SENSOR IN THE SAME PHYSICAL LOCATION OF THE CAR. THE SENSOR IS EXPOSED TO RAIN, SNOW, DIRT, DUST, MUD. I HAVE CHECKED RECALLS ON THIS BUT IT DOESN'T APPEAR TO HAVE ANY OUT THERE DESPITE FORUM COMPLAINTS. THERE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN "SERVICE BULLETINS" SENT OUT FOR CADILLAC AND CHEVROLET MODELS DUE TO CUSTOMERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE. THOSE HAVE BEEN REPLACED AT NO COST TO THE CONSUMER FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, TYPICAL COST FOR THIS PIECE DIRECT FROM ONLINE SELLERS IS $250+. TO HAVE THE DEALER REPLACE, IT'S LOOKING AT A COST UPWARDS OF $750+. THE NUMBER OF TERRAIN DENALI (THE ONLY TERRAIN TRIM WITH THE SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT) ARE RELATIVELY LOW COMPARED WITH THE QUANTITY OF THE CADILLAC AND CHEVROLET MODELS WITH THIS ISSUE. I'M WONDERING IF THIS IS POSSIBLY WHY THERE WERE NO "SERVICE BULLETINS" ON THE TERRAIN. THE TERRAIN HAS A HORRIBLE BLIND SPOT AND I UTILIZED THIS FEATURE ALL THE TIME WHEN IT WAS WORKING PROPERLY. I FEEL LIKE SAFETY IS COMPROMISED FOR MYSELF AND MY FAMILY WITH THIS NOW NOT WORKING. I APPRECIATE ANY AND ALL ASSISTANCE.

LEFT MY HOUSE ON A VERY COLD MORNING (BELOW 10 DEGREES) AND WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND MY ENGINE STARTED MAKING A VERY LOUD CLATTERING NOISE. LOW POWER MESSAGE DISPLAYED ON THE DASH AND SEVERAL LIGHTS DISPLAYED. NOTHING PRIOR TO THE NOISE. IMMEDIATELY PULLED IN AND PARKED MY VEHICLE. I HAD THE CODES RAN, CHECKED THE OIL AND IT HAD NONE! THE VEHICLE WAS CHECKED OUT AND THE PCV VALVE FAILED/FROZE CAUSING COMBUSTION IN THE ENGINE AND BLEW OUT THE REAR MAIN SEAL. ACCORDING TO SERVICE BULLETIN 14882 THIS WAS AN ISSUE ON THE 2010-2013 GMC TERRAINS AND 2010-2014 CHEVROLET EQUINOX (WHICH IS BASICALLY THE SAME THING) A RECALL WAS ISSUED. MY VEHICLE IS A 2014 (WHO'S TO SAY WHEN THE ENGINE WAS NOT BUILT IN 2013?) AND IT DOESN'T APPEAR THE ISSUE WAS FIXED ON THE 2014S WHICH IS GOING TO COST ME APPROXIMATELY $3000 TO FIX. WHEN THE REAR MAIN SEAL BLEW (OR STARTED LEAKING) IT COATED THE WHOLE UNDERSIDE OF MY VEHICLE WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSE ME TO WRECK OR CATCH FIRE. I HAD TO HAVE MY VEHICLE TOWED SINCE I WAS SEVERAL MILES FROM HOME.

Summary

LITERALLY ALMOST DIED WITH MY SON IN THIS VEHICLE, AS WE WE'RE DRIVING BACK HOME ON THE INTERSTATE TRAFFIC WAS HEAVY FOR SUNDAY EVENING DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF RAIN THAT WAS FALLING. IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS DRIVE THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING, THEY STOPPED IN THE UPWARD POSITIONS. WHICH ADDED TO THE DIFFICULTY OF VISIBILITY AS I PUT MY HAZARDS AND PLAY THAT WE WOULDN'T GET HIT OR THAT I WOULDN'T HIT ANYTHING. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO PULL OVER AND FIDDLED WITH THE WIPERS TO TRY TO GET THEM TO WORK-AGAIN AND DIDN'T HAPPEN WE HAD TO STAY ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD UNTIL THE RAIN SUBSIDED A BIT TO MAKE IT HOME IT WAS HORRIFYING. AS BEING IN FLORIDA IT RAINS A LOT AND HEAVY WE STILL HAD A LONG TRIP AHEAD OF US TO GET HOME. I DID REACH OUT TO SEVERAL REPAIR SHOPS AND THEY'RE TELLING THIS COMMON WITH THESE VEHICLE SURPRISED IT'S NOT A RECALL. ADDING INSULT TO INJURY THE REPAIR IS DEFINITELY COSTLY AS A SINGLE PARENT THIS IS BEYOND DIFFICULT DURING THESE COVID TIMES WITH NOT HAVING WORK. IF GMC IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM WHY HAVEN'T THEY DONE ANYTHING ABOUT IT ??? FOR EVERY GMC TERRAIN OWNER BE CAREFUL CHECK YOUR WIPERS ESPECIALLY IF YOU CHILDREN BECAUSE THIS IS THE KIND OF SCARE THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO HAVE. ALL I CAN HOPE FOR IS SHARING THIS EXPERIENCE WILL HELP OTHERS BECAUSE IT'S WHAT IS SINCERELY HORRIFYING. *TR

I TOOK THE WIPER ASSEMBLY APART AND GOT INTO THE WIPER LINKAGE AND SAW IT HAD CAME APART, I PUT IT BACK ON AND TURN ON THE WIPER AND IT CAME RIGHT OFF, LOOKS LIKE THE LINK AND BUSHING IS RUSTED AND NEEDS REPLACED. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S A PRETTY COMMON WITH THE TERRAINS AND EQUINOX. THIS IS AN DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT GM NEEDS TO ADDRESS AND GET IT FIX FOR ITS CUSTOMERS.

Summary

WHEN I LEFT WORK YESTERDAY EVENING IT WAS DARK AND RAINING OUTSIDE, AND NATURALLY, I TURNED ON MY FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS. ABOUT FIVE MINUTES INTO MY DRIVE HOME, WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, MY FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED OPERATING. I COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING AHEAD OF ME, BECAUSE IT WAS RAINING PRETTY HARD AT THAT POINT AND IT WAS EXTREMELY DARK ON THE HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLES BEHIND ME WERE APPROACHING PRETTY FAST. I PUT MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON, AND CROSSED THREE LANES TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I WAITED, APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, FOR THE RAIN TO STOP, BUT IT NEVER DID. I WAS ABOUT 1/2 MILE AWAY FROM MY EXIT, SO I INCHED MY WAY THERE, WHILE DRIVING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I MADE IT TO A NEARBY GAS STATION AND WAITED AN HOUR FOR THE RAIN TO DIE DOWN. I DROVE BEHIND OTHER VEHICLES, USING THEIR REAR LIGHTS AS MY VISUAL GUIDE IN ORDER TO MAKE IT HOME. MY FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS NEVER TURNED BACK ON. IT WAS A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. LUCKILY THERE WERE NO FATALITIES AS A RESULT OF MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS MALFUNCTIONING.

I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK. ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR STOPPED ABRUPTLY, WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS OR SIGNALS. IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE CAR SHUT OFF, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO GMC. I WAS CONTACTED ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 30TH, BY THE SERVICE TECH FOR AN UPDATE. APPARENTLY, THE SPARK PLUG MOVED OUT OF PLACE, AND THE PISTON PUSHED IT INTO THE ENGINE. THE TECHNICIAN MENTIONED THAT HE HAD NEVER SEEN ANY LIKE THIS BEFORE. THE VEHICLE IS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD. THERE SHOULD BE NO WAY THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS COULD TAKE PLACE AND I LOSE EVERYTHING AND HAVE TO PURCHASE AN ENTIRE NEW ENGINE. MOREOVER, HAD I BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN THIS HAPPENED, I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED ALONG WITH OTHER PEOPLE AS WELL. IN A WORLD OF TECHNOLOGY, THERE IS NO WAY THAT THIS SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED WITHOUT ANY WARNINGS OR SAFETY MECHANISMS IN PLACE TO PREVENT THE SPARK PLUG FROM MOVING INTO THE ENGINE.

I HAVE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE SINCE 11/2019. IT TWICE HAS HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS IN 12/2019. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON FOR ABOUT A WEEK. THE AUTO START WAS NOT WORKING, AND THE ONLY ISSUE I SEEN WAS THAT IF IT SAT RUNNING FOR A WHILE LIKE FOR INSTANCES, WARMING UP, IT FLOODED AND THE ENGINE WOULD CONTINUE TO RUN A FEW SECONDS AFTER IGNITION KEY WAS TAKEN OUT OF THE IGNITION. ENGINE WOULD STOP AFTER BUBBLING TO A STOP. THEN THE CHECK LIGHT WENT OUT AND EVERYTHING WORKED PROPERLY. BUT, ON 2/1/2020, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. MY AUTO START IS NOT WORKING AGAIN. AS LONG THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT AUTO START. THE CAR IS AGAIN FLOODING OUT AFTER ENGINE SHUT DOWN. AFTER IGNITION KEY IS TAKEN OUT OF IGNITION. THE ENGINE WILL RUN FOR A FEW SECONDS AND THEN BUBBLE TO A ENGINE STOP. WONDER IF OTHER CUSTOMERS HAS HAD PROBLEMS LIKE THIS TOO? BUT, THAT IS NOT NORMAL FOR A VEHICLE TO HAVE A CHECK ENGINE LIKE TO COME ON AND IT INTERFERES WITH THE AUTO START AND CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO FLOOD OUT LIKE IT DOES.

I MANAGED TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STOPPED, BUT NOT WITHOUT ALMOST CAUSING A WRECK THAT WOULD HAVE INVOLVED SEVERAL VEHICLES. WHILE SITTING THERE WAITING FOR IT TO QUIT RAINING, I BEGAN TO RESEARCH WHAT THE ISSUE COULD BE. I WAS BEYOND UPSET TO FIND OUT THAT THIS EXACT ISSUE HAS ALREADY BEEN REPORTED TO YOUR AGENCY MORE THAN 20 TIMES! FURTHER, THESE DEFECTIVE WIPER ASSEMBLIES HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECALLED IN CANADA BECAUSE THEY POSE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE!!! IT IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS AND NEGLIGENT TO NOT ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE TO BE CORRECTED.

INITIALLY I THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING THAT WILL GO AWAY BUT FOR SOME MONTHS NOW THE LEAK HAS BEEN GROWING. I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY WINDOWS DOWN JUST TO BE ABLE TO BREATHE IN MY VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT OR DAMAGE. I HAVE KEPT A CLEAN MAINTENANCE RECORD OF THIS VEHICLE. I AM A DISABLED VETERAN WITH TBI AND PTSD AND THE FUMES FROM THE CARBON MONOXIDE IN MY VEHICLE IS CAUSING MY MIGRAINES TO INTENSIFY. PLEASE HELP ME RESOLVE THIS ISSUE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BEFORE I DIE BEHIND THE WHEEL ONE DAY DRIVING IN MY VEHICLE. AS SOON AS I TURN THE VEHICLE ON, THE CARBON MONOXIDE FILLS THE CABIN UP.

THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE VENTS TO CIRCULATE HEAT/AC IN THE BACK SEAT. MAIN ISSUE IS IN THE SUMMER. MY TODDLER SON IS USUALLY SWEATING AND IN DISTRESS BECAUSE HE IS SO HOT.

Summary

IN OCTOBER 2015, I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE IN A RURAL AREA, AND ACCELERATED TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE. MY PASSING SPEED WAS APPROXIMATELY 80 MPH. I MERGED BACK INTO THE RIGHT LANE AFTER PASSING, AND LET MY FOOT OFF THE GAS. CRUISE CONTROL WAS NOT ENGAGED. THE CAR CONTINUED AT THE PASSING SPEED, AND STARTED TO INCREASE IN SPEED. I WAITED A FEW SECONDS TO SEE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN BEFORE TAKING EVASIVE ACTION; AS THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS ON THE HIGHWAY AT THIS POINT. FOR 4-5 SECONDS THIS CONTINUED. I TAPPED THE BRAKE AND NO CHANGE WAS DETECTED. I THEN TAPPED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL; AND THE SPEED DISENGAGED. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER; DIAGNOSTIC WAS RUN AND THEY COULD NOT DETECT A PROBLEM. DEALER WAS OF THE OPINION THAT THIS EVENT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE DRIVE TRAIN, THEY DROVE THE CAR BUT WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS ALL SEEMED TO INDICATE THAT CRUISE CONTROL WAS ON; HOWEVER I AM SURE IT WAS NOT.

Summary

DRIVER HAD STOPPED AT STOP SIGN ON THE EXIT RAMP AND AS SHE BEGAN TO ACCELERATE TO CROSSOVER TO APPROPRIATE LANE THE CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, REDUCED ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND CHECK STABILITY LIGHT LIT. THIS WAS IN A VERY DANGEROUS LOCATION AS THE SIDE ROAD THE DRIVER WAS LOCATED WAS AT THE BOTTOM OF A HILL, SO ONCOMING TRAFFIC WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A T-BONE HIT FOR THE DRIVER AND HEAD ON FOR THE ONCOMING VEHICLE. THE CAR SLOWLY (VERY, VERY SLOWLY) MOVED FORWARD ENOUGH TO FINALLY GET ACROSS STREET AND TO A SAFE PLACE. ALTHOUGH NO ACCIDENTS OR INJURIES OCCURRED, IT WAS BY THE GRACE OF GOD THAT NO TRAFFIC WAS COMING OVER THE HILL. THIS HAD THE POTENTIAL AND HAS THE POTENTIAL OF BEING A DEADLY PROBLEM IF IT OCCURS AGAIN OR IF ANOTHER VEHICLE HAS THE SAME ISSUE. IMMEDIATELY HAD TOW TRUCK PICK UP CAR AND TAKE TO GMC DEALERSHIP. I AM AWAITING THE RESULTS FROM THE DEALERSHIP. MY WORK REQUIRES A LOT OF TRAVEL AND NOW I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR WITH THIS ISSUE (WHICH AFTER RESEARCH TODAY SEEMS TO HAPPEN A LOT IN GMC VEHICLES. ) *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME AFTER WORK AROUND 7PM GOING ABOUT 45-50 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR BEGAN SLOWING DOWN AND I COULD NOT ACCELERATE. THIS IS WHEN I REALIZED THAT MY CAR HAD SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. ALSO, MY HEADLIGHTS TURNED OFF WHICH I NOTICED IMMEDIATELY SINCE IT WAS DARK OUTSIDE, THE COMPUTER SYSTEM SHUT DOWN, GAS INDICATOR WENT TO E AND THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. I WAS ABLE TO COAST OVER TO THE RIGHT LANE AND AS THE CAR WAS SLOWING DOWN MY STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO LOCK UP. ONCE I WAS FULLY PULLED OVER FROM THE TRAFFIC, I BRAKED AND PUT THE CAR INTO PARK. I WAITED A FEW MINUTES TO CATCH MY BREATH ON WHAT HAD JUST HAPPENED BECAUSE THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A BAD ACCIDENT IF IT WERE MORE TRAFFIC. SINCE I WAS PULLED OVER I THOUGHT I WOULD TRY TO RESTART MY CAR. BEFORE I RESTARTED IT, I NOTICED THAT MY KEY IGNITION WAS STILL IN THE ON POSITION SO I TURNED IT BACK TO TAKE THE KEY OUT AND THEN IMMEDIATELY PLACED IT BACK IN AND TURNED IT TO SUCCESSFULLY RESTART THE CAR. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THIS CAR. I'VE HAD IT SINCE DEC. 2013 AND HAVE A LITTLE OVER 15K MILES. I WILL BE CONTACTING THE GMC DEALERSHIP REGARDING THIS ISSUE SINCE I DID NOT SEE ANY RECALLS ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE. *TR

WHEN USING LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS, OVER HALF OF THE WINDSHIELD ( TOP DOWN) IS BLACKED OUT, CAUSING A RESTRICTED VISION. THERE IS A SLIGHT INCREASE IN VISION WHEN VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN ON AN UP HILL GRADE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE GMC DEALERSHIP FOR CORRECTION. SERVICE MANAGER DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND EXPERIENCED THE REPORTED PROBLEM. SOLUTION TO CORRECT THE RESTRICTED VISION,WAS TO ADJUST/RAISE THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS SO THEY WOULD SHINE HIGHER TO THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE BY STATE LAW. THIS ADJUSTMENT RAISED THE BLACK OUT LEVEL BY A VERY LIMITED LEVEL. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. THIS ADJUSTMENT NOW IS CAUSING ON COMING TRAFFIC AND TRAFFIC WE ARE FOLLOWING TO THINK THAT WE ARE USING OUR HIGH BEAM LIGHTS. CALLED GMC, THEIR REPLY WAS THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE TO CORRECT THE RESTRICTED VISION. THE PROBLEM IS EXPERIENCED AT ALL SPEEDS. HEAD LIGHT ADJUSTMENT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. WE NOW HAVE A RESTRICTED USE OF THE VEHICLE FOR DAY TIME DRIVING ONLY. *TR
