OUR VEHICLE ONLY HAS 86K MILES AND THE RACK AND PINION IS LEAKING HEAVILY. THE DEALER STATED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, BUT IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. SOMETIMES, THE POWER STEERING CUTS OUT AND IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. WE BELIEVE THAT THIS IMPOSES SERIOUS RISK WHILE DRIVING AND THE PROBLEM CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. THERE IS NO REPEATABLE SCENARIO TO DEMONSTRATE THE FAILURE. IT IS RANDOM. THE FRONT ENGINE COVER ALSO LEAKS OIL HEAVILY. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. THIS COULD RESULT IN RAPID ENGINE OIL LOSS AND ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER YESTERDAY FOR INSPECTION. UNFORTUNATELY NO PICTURES WERE TAKEN, BUT THEIR TWO TECHNICIANS INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND AGREED ON THE KNOWN ISSUES. THE SERVICE ADVISOR ALSO AGREED ON THE KNOWN ISSUES. I INQUIRED ABOUT GM HELPING WITH THESE KNOWN ISSUES, BUT THE DEALER STATED THAT THEIR DISTRICT AFTERSALES MANAGER WAS NOT KIND OR HELPFUL AND WOULD REVERT TO GENERAL MOTOR'S ONLINE GOODWILL CALCULATOR. HE ACCESSED THE ONLINE SYSTEM WHICH DETERMINED MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND/OR COVERAGE AND THAT THERE WAS NO GOODWILL AVAILABLE TO USE FOR MY VEHICLE. WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR GOODWILL, BUT RATHER FOR GM TO REPAIR THESE HIGH RISK PRODUCT FAILURES. SINCE THESE COMPONENTS WEAR WITH USE, NOT TIME, WE FEEL THAT WITH OUR LOW USAGE, THESE COMPONENTS SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED.

WE GOT THIS 2007 GMC ACADIA AT 100,230 MILES ON AUGUST 2014. NOW IT HAS AROUND 133,800 MILES. AT 115,000 MILES IT STATED TO HAVE ISSUES WHERE IT SAID STABILITY TRACK. THE TRACTION CONTROL TURNS OFF BY ITSELF AND NOT SURE IF THE STABILITY AND THIS ARE THE SAME THING. SOME ELECTRIC PARTS HAVE ALREADY FAILED. THE CHARGING OUTLET AND ELECTRIC WINDOWS DON'T WORK RIGHT. THE PASSENGER SIDE CAN NOT BE PUT DOWN BY DRIVER SIDE. THE REAR RIGHT SIDE CAN ONLY BE PUT DOWN OF UP BY THE DRIVER. THE LEFT REAR DOES NOT WORK WHEN THE DRIVER PUTS IT DOWN OR UP. THE POWER IN THE LIFT GATE IN THE BACK HAS GONE OUT. IT ONLY OPENS OR CLOSES MANUALLY. THERE WAS ALSO A RECALL WITH THE LIFT GATE AND WE GOT IT FIXED. AFTER IT WAS FIXED THEN A WHILE LATER IT WOULD CLOSE ON US AND IT ALMOST HIT US BUT WE REACTED FAST. IT ONLY CLOSED ON US ABOUT THREE TIMES THEN IT STOPPED WORKING. IT WAS RECALL 15240.THE SAFETY ISSUE IS THAT THE STEERING WHEEL GETS HARD TO TURN WHEN MAKING A TURN OR U TURN. IT HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES AS I AM DRIVING. ONE TIME IS ALMOST MADE ME CRASH INTO A CAR. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO TWO MECHANICS AND IT HAS ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION CODES. FOR JUST THE TRANSMISSION CODES IT WILL COST ME UP TO $4,000. ACCORDING TO THE CARFAX RECORDS IT HAS HAD INTERNAL TRANSMISSION REPAIRS AT 53,543 MILES. I FEEL LIKE THIS CAR POST A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE STEERING WHEEL PROBLEM. WE HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR 3YEARS AND WE HAVE EXPERIENCED MANY PROBLEMS WITH IT. GM SHOULD PAY FOR THIS FAULTY PARTS.

UPON ENTERING THE HIGHWAY THE 2007 ACADIA WOULD NOT SHIFT EITHER INTO OR OUT OF 3RD GEAR, I'M NOT SURE. I COULD NOT TELL WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND WHEN I DETERMINED THIS WAS NOT GOING TO CORRECT ITSELF I EXITED THE HIGHWAY. I'VE RECIEVED A LETTER FROM GM STATING THAT VEHICLES EQUIPED WITH 6T70 AND 6T75 6 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS ARE EXPERIENCING CRACKED OR FRACTURED WAVE PLATES. THIS CLEARLY IS A FAULTY PART AS IT IS OCCURRING ON MANY VERSIONS OF THIS VEHICLE AND HAS BEEN UPGRADED. I WAS LUCKY IN THAT IT WAS ONLY ME IN THE AUTO AND NOT THE ENTIRE FAMILY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. VERY DANGEROUS.

AFTER TAKING MY VEHICLE TO PHIL MOORE BUICK GMC ON 10/16/2014 AND PAYING $1341.10 FOR REPAIRS AFTER A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT INDICATOR, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN ON 10/20/2014 AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO SLOW FROM 60 MILES PER HOUR TO 20 MILES PER HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP ON10/21/2015, I WAS TOLD THERE WERE ADDITIONAL REPAIRS NEEDED ON THE ENGINE AT AN ESTIMATED COST OF $2789.18. BECAUSE REPAIRS HAD JUST BEEN COMPLETED ON THE SAME AREA 5 DAYS EARLIER, I CALLED THE GM CORPORATION AND I WAS INFORMED THAT REPAIRS TO THE ENGINE SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED UNDER A RECALL AND THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD HAVE NOTICED THE RECALL AT THE TIME OF SERVICE. *TR

TRANSMISSION SLIPPING JERKS AND BUMPS WHEN SHIFTING. PASSENGERS NOTED THERE WAS ISSUES ALSO. LOSES POWER GOING UP HILLS. TOOK IT TO COCHRAN PONTIAC FOR TWO YEARS AND DID NOT CORRECT SITUATION, SINCE THERE WERE NO CODES ON THE COMPUTER EVEN THOUGH THE CAR HAD NO POWER AND WAS JERKING. ENGINE LIGHT, ANTILOCK BRAKING, NO REAR SENSORS, AND THE FUEL GAUGE LIGHTS ARE NOW ON AFTER ANOTHER DEALER FIXED TRANSMISSION AND I HAD TO PAY $1,500 AND I SHOULD HAVE NOT PAID ANYTHING. I DID NOT HAVE THESE LIGHTS ON MY DASH BOARD WHEN I WENT TO GET THE TRANSMISSION FIXED AND THE DEALER HAS NOT FIXED THEM. RECENTLY, MY CAR LOST POWER AND DIED ON A BLIND DANGEROUS CURVE AND SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE. I WAS AFRAID TO GET HIT AND FELT MY CAR WAS UNSAFE. WE PUT GAS IN AND WOULD NOT START AND ENGINE WAS HOT. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO DEALER AFTER TWO WEEKS FROM GETTING THE TRANSMISSION REPAIRED AND TOLD DEALER TRANSMISSION HAS NOISES IN IT AND ENGINE WAS HOT AND CAR WOULD NOT START. THEY CALLED AND SAID IT WAS OUT OF GAS AND RUNS NOW, HOWEVER, THEY DID NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUES NOTED ABOVE FOR ALL OF THE LIGHTS THAT WERE ON THE DASH BOARD. THE GAS WAS NOT THE ISSUE BEFORE CAR WAS TOWED SINCE WE PUT GAS IN THERE WHEN IT BROKE DOWN. THIS 2007 ACADIA HAS HAD ISSUES SINCE 2011 THAT CONTINUE TO PRESENT AND THIS SUV IS KNOWN TO HAVE MANY RECALLS AND IS UNSAFE. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES WITH COMPLAINTS BY THE CUSTOMER. *TR
