2017 GMC Acadia

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAYS "SHIFT TO PARK" EVEN AFTER PUTTING THE CAR ON PARKING. BECAUSE OF THIS, DRIVER CAN BE STRANDED, UNABLE TO SHUT THE ENGINE OFF WHICH MAY DRAIN BATTERY, OR EVEN VEHICLE MAY ROLL OVER IF THE VEHICLE WASN'T PARKED PROPERLY BECAUSE OF THIS. GM SHOULD EXTEND THE WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE TO ALL THE VEHICLE OWNERS SO THAT THEY DON'T HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT INTO PARK. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PUT INTO NEUTRAL AND APPLIED THE PARKING BRAKE TO PARK THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE BATTERY WAS DRAINED DUE TO PLACING THE VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL AND APPLYING THE PARKING BRAKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CHEVROLET BUICK GMC OF MURFREESBORO (960 JOHN R RICE BLVD, MURFREESBORO, TN 37129) WHERE THEY INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CONTINUE TO USE THE METHOD UNTIL THEY WERE ABLE TO REVIEW THE VEHICLE ON THE SCHEDULED APPOINTMENT DATE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

MY 2017 HAD A SHIFT TO PARK ISSUE. WHEN PARKED AND THE CAR IS IN "PARK" THE CAR WILL SAY "SHIFT TO PARK" WHICH CAUSES YOU NOT TO BE ABLE TO LOCK THE CAR, OR TO MAKE SURE THE CAR WILL NOT ROLL AWAY. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND HAD ALL COMPONENTS REPLACED, HOWEVER THEY INFORMATION ME THAT THIS WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AS THE PARTS ARE MADE INCORRECTLY, SO UNFORTUNATELY IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AT SOME POINT. MY SECOND ISSUE WITH THE ACADIA IS WHEN YOU ARE IN CRUSE CONTROL, THE CAR WILL AUTOMATICALLY APPLY THE BREAKS (ABRUPTLY AND HARD) FOR NO REASON. GMC SAYS THAT IT COULD BE WHEN THE SENSORS GET DIRTY OR OVERHEAT, HOWEVER IT MAKES YOU VERY UNEASY KNOWING YOUR BREAKS CAN MASH ON AT ANYTIME BY THEMSELVES WHEN YOU ARE USING THE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING, THE SHIFT TO PARK FAILED TO MOVE FROM AUXILIARY MODE AND DRAINED THE BATTERY. ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE MOVED. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN THREE TIMES TO GARLYN SHELTON BUICK GMC (5625 S GENERAL BRUCE DR, TEMPLE, TX 76502, (254) 598-4128) AND DIAGNOSED THAT THE SHIFTER BOOT AND SHIFTER PIN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.
