2017 GMC Acadia

I BROUGHT IT IN TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT A COUPLE MONTHS AGO BECAUSE THE ACCELERATOR WOULD ACCELERATE WITH OUT ME PUSHING THE GAS EVEN SLAMMING ON THE BRAKES WOULD GET TO 85 90 MILES AN HOUR. FINALLY GOT IT OFF THE ROAD AND OFF HUGE QUANTITIES OF WHITE SMOKE FROM THE BRAKES BEING SO HOT. ASSURED ME IT WAS FIXED AND LAST NIGHT IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC DID IT AGAIN. ALMOST GOT ME KILLED. SERVICE SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL BUT THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 GMC ACADIA. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, SMOKE AND SPARKS SUDDENLY APPEARED FROM THE VENTS INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. WHEN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED, FLAMES WERE PRESENT UNDER THE HOOD ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. THE FLAMES WERE EXTINGUISHED AND THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE WAS INVESTIGATED. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ELECTRONIC MODULE CASING HAD BLOWN OFF AND THE MODULE HAD CAUGHT FIRE DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL SHORT. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. *TT *TR

TRUCK CONSTANTLY FAILS TO START. KEYFOB NOT RECOGNIZED. COMPUTER SYSTEM CRASHES, REAR AIR VENTS FALL OUT. FAULTY GAS TANK AND GAS LINE. CANNOT FILL UP GAS TANK PAST 1/2 A TANK. BEEN HAPPENING SINCE INCEPTION AND IS CONSTANTLY IN AND OUT OF SERVICE FOR THE SAME ISSUES OVER THE PAST YEAR. NOT BEING ABLE TO START THE TRUCK IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO ME AND MY FAMILY. THERE NEEDS TO BE AN ALTERNATE WAY TO START THE TRUCK SHOULD THE COMPUTER SYSTEM CRASH.

HELLO, IS ANYONE INVESTIGATING THE HORN PROBLEM WITH THE 2017 GMC ACADIA THAT IS WELL-DOCUMENTED IN MANY PLACES, INCLUDING YOUR OWN NHTSA WEBSITE? THE SAME PROBLEM LIKELY EXISTS WITH THE 2018 MODELS AS WELL. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE THE '17 MODELS WERE FIRST INTRODUCED IN 2016 AND GM SAYS THEY CAN'T FIX IT. A SAFETY ISSUE AND THEY CAN'T FIX IT? THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT, OR WORSE. GM DEALERS ARE STILL SELLING THESE VEHICLES TO UNINFORMED BUYERS AND THEY WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM.

I ALMOST HIT A PEDESTRIAN WALKING ACROSS THE STREET IN FRONT OF MY CAR AT NIGHT AS I DID NOT SEE HIM DUE TO,THE HEADLIGHTS BEING TOTALLY INADEQUATE TO SEE IN FRONT OF THE CAR AND THE LIGHTS HAVE A BLIND SPOT WHEN ILLUMINATED AS THE DO NOT SHINE HIGH ENOUGH. THERE IS LIKE A SHELF EFFECT THAT WON'T ILLUMINATE ABOVE FOUR FEET OF THE ROAD IN FRONT OF YOU. ALSO THE LIGHT DOES NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD ENOUGH ESPECIALLY IN WET CONDITIONS. IT IS LIKE HAVING NO,LIGHT AT ALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT AND THE SECOND ROW MIDDLE SEAT BELTS BOTH FAILED TO RETRACT.

THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND OPENED A CASE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS UNABLE TO CONFIRM IF AND WHEN THE PART FOR THE REPAIR WOULD BE AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,400.
