2014 GMC TERRAIN
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.

2013 GMC TERRAIN
MY CAR BEGAN MAKING ODD KNOCKING SOUNDS AND SINCE IT WAS DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE, I MADE AN APPOINTMENT. THE DAY OF THE APPOINTMENT, AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN A BUSY STREET AND THE CAR LOCKED UP AND QUIT. I PULLED INTO A DRIVEWAY AND CALLED AAA. I TRIED TURNING THE VEHICLE ON A COUPLE OF TIMES AND IT MADE A SIGNIFICANTLY LOUD NOISE THAT WAS CONCERNING. AFTER A MECHANIC ASSESSED WHAT WAS WRONG, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THE CAR WAS NEARLY OUT OF OIL, EVEN THOUGH IT HAD NOT BEEN 3,000 MILES SINCE THE LAST OIL CHANGE. THE REPAIR COST OVER $2,000.

2015 GMC TERRAIN
MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO SPUTTER AND STALLED AS I DECELERATED AND APPROACHED AN INTERSECTION WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I STOPPED AND RESTARTED THE CAR AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS WITHIN A MILE OF DEALERSHIP, CALLED THEM AND TOOK IT IN. THEY ESTIMATE $1,200 FOR REPAIR. I SEARCHED KNOWN ISSUES WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL AND I AM NOT ALONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS MAY HAPPEN AGAIN WHICH COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. I DO NOT SEE ANY RECALLS BUT THERE ARE NUMEROUS ISSUES STATING THIS SAME ISSUE ON A SIMPLE SEARCH OF NONE ISSUES FOR THIS SUV.

2015 GMC TERRAIN
MY VEHICLE IS UNDER 60K MILES AND ONE DAY I WOKE UP WENT TO DRIVE IT MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY VEHICLE STARTED TO SPUTTER AND TRY TO DIE OUT WHILE DRIVING IN A SCHOOL ZONE GOING 20 MPH. THEN AFTER MAKING IT TO MY DESTINATION I PLACED THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE AND IT DIED OUT ON ME. I STARTED IT RIGHT BACK UP IT DIED AS SOON AS IT HIT REVERSE AGAIN. FINALLY I WAS ABLE TO START IT AND COAST BACKWARDS THEN PLACE IT IN DRIVE. I HAD RECENTLY GOTTEN GAS AND THOUGHT MAYBE SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE GAS BUT IM SEEING THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR MORE PEOPLE THAN JUST ME. SO DISAPPOINTING BC IT IS A LEASE AND MY LEASE IS UP IN ONE MONTH SO NOW IM HELD LIABLE TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT I FEEL LIKE SHOULD BE A RECALL. I'VE ALWAYS STAYED UP ON MY OIL CHANGES, AND MAINTENANCE AND IM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE QUALITY OF THIS VEHICLE.

2015 GMC TERRAIN
STARTED MARCH OF 2017 PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE. SUV JERKS, GAUGES GO CRAZY, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, IF SLOW TO BELOW 20 MPH IT SPUTTERS AND WON'T ACCELERATE, IF I STOP COMPLETELY IT WON'T ACCELERATE. MULTIPLE TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC & AT BUSY INTERSECTIONS. IF I TURN CAR OFF AND BACK ON THE SYSTEM RESETS. THEN IT STARTS ALL OVER AGAIN. IT HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP. PROBABLY 10-15 TIMES IN 2YEARS. THEY GET CODES, BUT THEN THESE GO AWAY BEFORE THEY CAN BE 'RUN'. I BROKE DOWN 1-1/2 WEEKS AGO IN BAY MINETTE & THE CAR WOULDNT START BACK UP. I WAS STRANDED OUT OF TOWN AND HAD TO RENT A CAR TO GET BACK HOME. THE DEALER THERE GOT 7 ERROR CODES THAT ALL CLEARED OUT. I HAVE FILED A COMPJAINT WITH GMC, BUT THEY ARE SLOW TO HANDLE THE PROBLEM & I CAN'T GET SUPERVISORS ON THE PHONE OR AT LEAST ONE WHO DOESN'T SEEM LIKE HE'S BEEN DRINKING.

2013 GMC TERRAIN
THERE ARE SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE WHICH MAKES ME THINK THIS CAR WAS A LEMON, UNREPORTED BY ORIGINAL OWNER, OR IN A FLOOD; 1ST, THE REAR HATCH STRUTS WERE TOTALLY RUSTED OUT AND INOPERABLE (REINFORCING MY FLOOD THOUGHT.) 2ND, THE VEHICLES MPG IS NOWHERE NEAR THE ADVERTISED 22/32 - I MENTIONED MY CONCERN SEVERAL TIMES TO THE SERVICE DEPT, THE SALES MAN, AND THE CERTIFIED SALE MANAGER; THEIR SOLUTION - THEY RESET THE GAUGE ON THE DASHBOARD! 3RD, WITHIN DAYS OF MY PURCHASE, I NOTICED A KNOCK UNDER MY CAR THAT SOUNDED LIKE AN AXLE WAS GOING TO BUST THROUGH MY FLOORBOARD IT WAS KNOCKING SO HARD! AFTER NUMEROUS SERVICE REPAIR ATTEMPTS & VISITS BACK TO THE DEALER, ONE VISIT LASTING APPROXIMATELY 7 DAYS, THEY THINK THEY'VE FIXED THE PROBLEM. SECONDARY FUEL TANK FUEL PUMP MODULE - (CONTRIBUTING TO FUEL CONSUMPTION ISSUE?) 4TH, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO WORK, IN THE FAST LANE, @ 6AM ONE DARK, RAINY MORNING, DURING A TORRENTIAL DOWN POUR ALMOST CAUSING A MAJOR PILE UP! 5TH, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, STUMBLES AND MISFIRES ON ACCELERATION, SHUTS OFF WHEN STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT. REPAIRED/SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS LATER. 6TH, THE CONTINUING ISSUES HAVE BEEN, BUT NOT LIMITED TO REDUCED ENGINE POWER, ROUGH IDLE, ENGINE SPUTTERS, HESITATES, POOR GAS MILEAGE, & EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. 7TH, ANOTHER CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, NOW FUEL-INJECTORS NEED REPLACED (ANOTHER CONTRIBUTOR TO FUEL CONSUMPTION ISSUE?) . AFTER FURTHER REVIEW OF THE VEHICLE'S CPO PAPERWORK, THIS IS NOT THE CERTIFIED VEHICLE BEING REFERRED TO ON THE PAPERWORK. THERE ARE ITEMS CHECKED OFF ON THE REPORT THAT DO NOT APPLY TO THIS VEHICLE. I WOULD HAVE NEVER OVERPAID FOR A CPO VEHICLE HAD I KNOW THEIR "RIGOROUS STANDARDS" MEANT ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! I HAVE BOUGHT MANY CARS IN MY LIFE, BOTH NEW AND USED CARS AND NEVER HAD ANY OF THE ISSUES I AM HAVING WITH THIS VEHICLE!

2013 GMC TERRAIN
I WAS ABOUT TO SWITCH LANES ON HIGHWAY FROM ON RAMP TRAVELLING APRPOX 60 MPH AND ACCELERATING WHEN MY VEHICLE SUDDELING STOPPED ACCELERATING & SOMEONE PULLED UP ON MY SIDE TO INFORM ME I WAS LEAKING FUEL EVERYWHERE. I LOST NEARLY A FULL TANK OF GAS ON THE HIGHWAY. ONE OF THE MEN WHO STOPPED HAD WORKED ON GM VEHICLES IN THE PAST AND WAS ABLE TO CLIP SOMETHING TOGETHER TO SLOW THE LEAK. I DROVE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WERE NO HELP AND DIDN'T SEEM TO CARE ABOUT THE ISSUE OR HOW SERIOUS THIS WAS FOR A 2 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 37K MILES. I WAS TOLD I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THEY WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING FOR ME AND WERE GOING TO CHARGE ME A $200 DIAGNOSTIC FEE. DISAPPOINTED BY THE POOR SERVICE I RECEIVED I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO WORKS ON OUR OTHER VEHICLE. THEY WERE SHOCKED TO SEE A FUEL LINE ON A 2013 VEHICLE BREAK. THEY ORDERED THE REPLACEMENT FUEL LINE FROM GM AND I GOT MY CAR BACK ON 5 DAYS LATER. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK MY CAR OUT TO RUN ERRANDS AND WHEN RETURNING TO THE VEHICLE I NOTICED A STRONG SMELL OF GAS, UPON LOOKING UNDER THE CAR I NOTICED THAT THE FUEL LINE WAS STILL LEAKING AND FROM THE SAME PLACE! WE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE SHOP AND THEY IMMEDIATELY GO IN TOUCH WITH GM WHO SENT OUT ANOTHER REPLACEMENT PART AND ALSO RECOMMENDED ALSO REPLACING THE METAL LINE AS THEY HAD BEEN SEEING SOME ISSUES WITH THIS LINE. UNDER THE RECOMMENDATION OF GM THE SHOP REPLACED BOTH LINES AND I GOT MY CAR BACK 3 DAYS LATER. THE PROBLEMS I HAVE EXPERIENCED ARE UNACCEPTABLE AND COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS HURT BUT HAD I BEEN IN THE HIGH SPEED LANE AND TRAVELING AT FULL SPEED LIMIT WHEN THIS HAPPEN I OR SOMEONE ELSE COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED BY THIS ISSUE. GIVEN THE AGE OF THE CAR AND LOW MILEAGE THIS IS NOT A WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE, THIS IS 100% A DEFECTIVE PART OR MFG PROBLEM THAT I EXPECT GM TO REIMBURSE $670 FOR REPAIR.
