2017 GMC Acadia

THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED TO ME ATLEAST 4 TIMES IN THE LAST 8 MONTHS . I WILL GO TO START MY CAR AND IT WILL SHOW 'NO REMOTE ACCESS ' THEN COMPLETELY SHUT OFF OR DRAIN THE BATTERY . I HA W HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED 3 TIMES AND THEN ONE TIME AFTER 45 MINUTES IT JUST TURNED ON . THIS IS ONLY A 2017 ACDUA ABS I HAVE ONLY HAD IT A YEAR AND A HALF . IT'S HAD LEAKING HEATER FLUID ISSUES AS WELL .

THE SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT SYSTEM FAILED LAST YEAR AND CAUSED THE CAR TO DIE AND LEAVE ME STRANDED. THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY AND THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THE SIDE BLIND ZONE SYSTEM WAS FAULTY AND REPLACED THE MODULE AND SENSORS. A LITTLE OVER A YEAR LATER AND THE SYSTEM IS DOING THE SAME THING. I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE MODULE AND SENSORS. THIS SHOULD NOT BE MY PROBLEM, GMC HAS CREATED A FAULTY SENSOR SYSTEM AND NOW CONSUMERS ARE HAVING TO DISH OUT 700 PLUS DOLLARS FOR THE REPAIR. THERE IS A 'BULLETIN' THAT CONVENIENTLY DOES NOT COVER AL VIN NUMBERS MINE INCLUDED! HOW CAN THAT BE POSSIBLE IF IT'S THE SAME FAULTY SYSTEM? I WOULD LIKE THIS REPAIR TO MADE BY THE MANUFACTURER AND THERE SHOULD BE A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT REGARDING THIS MATTER. THE VEHICLE DIED AS I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT, THANK GOD! I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED AND REPAIRED

ON DECEMBER 29, 2020, I WAS GOING TO VISIT A FRIEND ABOUT 5:30PM. THEY HAVE A DRIVEWAY THAT IS A DOWNWARD SLOPE. I PUT MY CAR (2017 GMC ACADIA DENALI) IN PARK AND TURNED IT OFF. I STEPPED OUT AND LOCKED THE DOORS. I WAS TALKING TO MY FRIEND'S HUSBAND FOR A COUPLE MINUTES, ASKING IF SHE WAS HOME AND IF MY CAR WAS OKAY WHERE IT WAS PARKED. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE HE WAS NOT LEAVING AND WAS BLOCKED IN. I THEN STARTED WALKING TO THE HOUSE. I WAS GOING TO WALK IN THE GRASS AND JUST GO TO THE FRONT DOOR, BUT SINCE IT STARTED TO SNOW, I WALKED DOWN THE DRIVEWAY. MY VEHICLE THEN STARTED ROLLING DOWN THE DRIVEWAY AND KNOCKED ME OVER. IT PROCEEDED TO DRIVE OVER ME. I KNOW I FELL ON MY STOMACH, AS MY HANDS AND KNEES ARE PRETTY BRUISED AND SCRAPED UP. AS THE VEHICLE PROCEEDED TO KEEP GOING, I WAS PUSHED ON MY BACK WITH THE TIRE RESTING ON MY RIGHT HIP. THE GENTLEMAN RAN UP AND TRIED TO PUSH THE VEHICLE OFF OF ME, BUT COULD NOT PUSH IT UP HILL. LUCKILY THE KEYS AND MY PHONE FELL OUT OF MY POCKET AND HE WAS ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE AND DRIVE IT OFF OF ME. I KNOW AT SOME POINT I DID HIT MY HEAD, BECAUSE THE BACK IS REALLY TENDER TODAY. I DID GO TO URGENT CARE TO GET X-RAYS BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL WITH ALL THE COVID CASES HERE IN ST JOSEPH COUNTY. THEY DID SCRUB ALL THE ROCKS AND DIRT OUT OF MY BACK AND HIP AND CLEANED UP MY KNEES. MY EX RAYS CAME BACK WITH NO BROKEN BONES AND I DID NOT HAVE BLOOD IN MY URINE, BUT THEY STILL RECOMMENDED THAT I GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM. I AM NOT ABLE TO WALK VERY WELL AND MY HIP IS VERY SWOLLEN. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE MY CAR WAS JUST IN THE SHOP BECAUSE THE SHIFT TO PARK LIGHT KEPT COMING ON IN OCTOBER AND I HAVE MY REPAIR ORDER THAT SAYS THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED ON OCTOBER 22, 2020, WHICH OBVIOUSLY IT WAS NOT.

MY 2017 GMC ACADIA SHUT OFF LOST ALL POWER FOR A COUPLE MINS AT A BUSY INTERSECTION IN SEPTEMBER 2020. ALL POWER RESTORE AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES AND ATTEMPTS TO RESTART. I TOOK IN TO THE DEALERSHIP HOWEVER THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE. NOW ON THE 28TH OF DECEMBER 2020, THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AGAIN AT THE SAME BUSY INTERSECTION! NO POWER AT ALL! COULD NOT EVEN TURN MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON TO WARN TRAFFIC THAT WAS COMING UP BEHIND ME ON THE HIGHWAY! THE VEHICLE REMAINED LIKE THIS FOR 10-15 MINUTES! COULDN'T EVEN HAVE ANYONE PUSH IT OFF THE ROAD BECAUSE WE COULDN'T SHIFT IT TO NEUTRAL EITHER. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AS GM ADVISED AND THEY STILL COULD NOT DUPLICATE. THE DEALERSHIP TRIED BUT CANNOT MAKE SENSE OF WHY THIS KEEPS OCCURRING RANDOMLY. I HAD MY SMALL CHILDREN IN THE CAR THIS TIME AND WE ARE LUCKY WE DID NOT GET REAR ENDED! I FEAR THAT MY FAMILY IS NOT SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE.

PARK TO SHIFT WARNING WHEN TRYING TO SHUT OFF VEHICLE. PROBLEM "FIXED" 12/28/2108 BUT RESURFACED AGAIN OCTOBER 2020. NOW "OUT OF WARRANTY" MANY POSTS WITH OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCING RECURRING ISSUE. DOES NOT SEEM TO BE A CONSISTENT FIX. NEW SHIFT MECAHNISM, NEW WIRING HARNESS AND "BENDING" THE METAL CONTACT POINT THAT DEPRESSES THE SWITCH TO ELIMINATE THE WARNING "LOCKOUT" ARE THE MOST COMMON FIXES. I BELIEVE THIS WIDESPREAD OF AN ISSUE SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY GMC INSTEAD OF BURDENING OWNERS OF AFFECTED VEHICLES WITH THE COSTS OF "TRYING" DIFFERENT FIXES. THANK YOU

SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE I'VE HAD THE STABILITRAK, PARKING BRAKE, STEERING ASSIST WARNINGS POP UP ALONG WITH LIGHTS FLASHING AND THE CAR REDUCES POWER WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IF YOU RESET THE CODES, ITT STOPS. I'VE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER TO GET IT FIXED AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. I'VE HAD THIS VEHICLE 3 YEARS AND IT'S BEEN NOTHING BUT TROUBLE.

THE "SHIFT TO PARK" WARNING MESSAGE SHOWS UP AND WON'T PERMIT CAR TO BE SHUTOFF. VEHICLE IS STOPPED AND AT REST AND IS PLACED IN "PARK" AS DESIGNATED BY SHIFT LEVER LIGHT AND DASHBOARD INDICATORS, AND THE AUTO DOOR UNLOCK FEATURE ACTIVATED CORRECTLY WHEN PLACED IN PARK. ON 9/21/20, IT TOOK ME ABOUT 10 MINUTES OF TRYING DIFFERENT POSITIONS AND BY PHYSICALLY MOVING VEHICLE TO A DIFFERENT PARKING SPACE . PROBLEM OCCURS SPORADICALLY. THIS SAME PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED A TOTAL OF ABOUT 5 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS BUT NOT AS SEVERE AS THIS LAST TIME. VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY SERVICED 11/2019, WHEN VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY WITH 10,062 MILES FOR THE SAME ISSUE IN WHICH THE DEALER REPLACED A SHIFTER HARNESS. NOW, 9/21/20, 10 MONTHS LATER, AND 12,400 MILES, THE SAME PROBLEM HAS RE-EMERGED. THE VEHICLE IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURING OR ENGINEERING DEFECT.
