1995 GMC S Series Problems

VEHICLE TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS WHILE SHIFTING.

TOOK THE TRUCK TO GET A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK DUE TO THE TRUCK IN DRIVEWAY WOULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE SO HUSBAND PUT IT IN DRIVE TO PULL UP A LITTLE TO SEE IF IT WOULD HELP TO THEN GO INTO REVERSE, INSTEAD, THE TRUCK JERKED SO HARD & ALMOST THREW MY HUSBAND & SON INTO THE GARAGE DOOR THAT MORNING. HUSBAND & SON CAME BACK IN ALL SHOOK UP. THE SCAN DIAGNOSTIC CODE-CHCK SHOWED: TRANS FLUID-INDEED FULL; BUT WAY BURNT; NEEDS TRANSMISSION; FRONT PUMP MAKING NOISE IN TRANSMISSION; TORQUE CONVERTER; EXHAUST SHOWS SIGNS OF BACK PRESSURE-AND ONE RUNNING HOTTER THAN THE OTHER; THE LEFT SIDE RUNNING 100+ HOTTER THAN THE RIGHT - NEEDS TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY REMOVED & REPAIRED; REMAN GM TRANS; Y-PIPE W/BOTH CONVERTERS; FLUIDS FLUSH NUTS BOLT GASKETS. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD NOT BE A GOOD IDEA TO DRIVE IT. I AM RETIRED MILITARY AND MAINTAINED THE TRUCK THROUGHOUT MY MILITARY CAREER, BUT NO WARNINGS SHOWED ON THE DASH READER FOR SOMETHING WRONG WITH TRANSMISSION. IT IS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 SLT 5.3L V8. VIN#[XXX]. NEED HELP IF THIS ISSUE HAS EVER BEEN PLACED ON THE RECALL LIST? IF NOT, IT SHOULD BE. THIS ISSUE COULD KILL SOMEONE IF IT WERE TO JERK WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I OWN A 2015 GMC SIERRA,28000 MILES, DURING THE LAST 2 YEARS THE ISSUE WAS INTERMITTENT, UNTIL RECENTLY WHEN GOING AROUND A CORNER, IT LOOSES COMPLETE POWER FOR A FEW SECONDS.I CALLED LITHIA SOUTH CHEVROLET OF ANCHORAGE,THEY SAID IT SOUNDED LIKE THE BATTERY, I KNEW IT WASN'T HE BATTERY ITSELF SO I DID MY OWN RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND MANY PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE, SO I CALLED THE DEALER BACK AND THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I STATED ITS ALL OVER THE INTERNET YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT NO ONE THERE IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE?.NEEDLESS TO SAY I WAS QUITE ANGRY, BEING FEMALE THEY TREAT YOU AN IDIOT ALREADY. I ENDED UP TAKING IT TO ANOTHER AUTOMOTIVE SHOP AND SURE ENOUGH IT WAS EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUE THAT I HAD BEEN READING ABOUT ONLINE. I EVEN HAVE THE BROKEN PIECE, THE GUY EVEN PRINTED THE INSTRUCTION FOR THE FIX OFF OF THE GMC WEBSITE. I TAKE THE BROKEN NEGATIVE GROUND (PLASTIC) PIECE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO FIX IT TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS BEFORE, AND SO THEY WOULD HAVE A CLUE, ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THERE WAS YET ANOTHER RECALL ON MY TRUCK FOR THE BACK WINDOW BLOWING INTO THE CAB, WHICH THEN IN TURN, TURNED UP ANOTHER PROBLEM WITH THE RADIATOR SEEPING FLUID. WHICH I WAS TOLD BY MIKE WILLIAMS THAT THIS A CONSTANT FOR THEM TO HAVE REPLACE IN THESE TRUCKS THEY HAVE TO KEEP ADDITIONAL STOCK. I WAS QUOTED AN EXUBERANT AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR THE FIX AND MY WARRANTY JUST ENDED A FEW MONTHS AGO. THE VEHICLE LOSING POWER IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE, IT DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE A RECALL!! I CALLED THE GMC 800 NUMBER, ITS A JOKE.ITS BEEN 3 WEEKS 3-4 DIFFERENT CONTACTS HAVING TO REPEAT MY STORY EACH TIME WHEN THEY CALL YOU BACK THEY LEAVE YOU A MESSAGE WITHOUT AN EXTENSION, EXCEPT THE LAST ONE, I AM OVER IT, GMC HAS SET THEIR CALL CENTER UP THIS WAY TO DISCOURAGE CUSTOMERS FROM CALLING THEM. IT WORKS, I AM ABOUT READY TO HAVE A STROKE. WHEN SOME SPENDS UPWARDS OF 50000 FOR A VEHICLE,THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE TO GO THRU HELL. TOTAL LEMON!!

I HAVE A 2009 GMC SEIRRA AND IT SHUTS OFF FOR NO REASON AT ALL WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING.AND I FEEL THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS.MY VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 50,000 THOUSAND MILES ON IT.AND OF COURSE IT STARTED HAPPENING 2-MONTHS AFTER THE WARRANTY WAS UP. *TR

REAR DIFFERENTIAL WILL NOT STOP GROANING ON ANY TURN. REAR DIFFERENTIAL NOW HAS TO BE REPLACED AND THE CAR ONLY HAS 80,000 MILES ON IT. WE ALSO HAVE TO REPLACE THE RACK AND PINION. THE TOTAL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH BOTH THESE WILL BE WELL OVER $5,000. IT IS EFFECTING THE TURNING PROCESS WHEN I NEED TO TURN THE CAR. ALSO HAVE A RACK AND PINION FAILURE. THE STEERING COLUMN COMPLETELY LOCKED UP AND THE TOWING COMPANY HAD TO PUT OIL ALL OVER WHERE THE CAR WAS PARKED AND SLIDE IT UP TO THE CABLE TO TOW THE CAR. ENTIRE STEERING MECHANISM REPLACED BUT NOW THE RACK AND PINION HAS TO BE REPLACED. I THINK IT IS DUE TO THE STEERING COLUMN ISSUE. THAT IS WHEN IT STARTED. *TR

I BOUGHT A NEW 2005 CHEVY IMPALA IN MARCH 2005 AND HAD TO REPLACED THE STEERING SHAFT AFTER ABOUT 12000 MILES IN 9 MONTHS. IN FEB,2010 I HAD TO REPLACED THE SECOND SHAFT THAT'S 3 SHAFTS IN 4 AN HALF YEARS WITH LESS THAN 60,000 MILES. *TR

I PURCHASED A USED 2004 GMC ENVOY SLT, WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FROM GRAND PRIX AUTO GROUP, HICKSVILLE, NY IN AUGUST 2008. SOON AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR IT STALLED WHILE WE WERE AT A RED LIGHT. IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT THE TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY FIXED IT, MAY I MENTION IT NEVER STOPPED STALLING. THEN THE SPEEDOMETER BROKE AGAIN. IT CONSTANTLY SAYS I'M TRAVELING 120 MILES AN HOUR. ONCE AGAIN, BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER, THEY TELL ME I NEED TO GO TO A GMC DEALER, I DO, THEY REPLACE THE INFORMATION CLUSTER AND SPEEDOMETER, HAD TO PAY A $ 300.00 DEDUCTIBLE. THIS WAS IN MARCH 2009. DRIVING THE OTHER DAY OCTOBER 2009 AND THE SPEEDOMETER ONCE AGAIN SAYS 120. GET PULLED OVER, GET A TICKET FOR A BROKEN SPEEDOMETER. THE OFFICER WAS AWARE I WAS NOT TRAVELING AT THAT SPEED, AND EVEN WHEN I TRIED TO EXPLAIN, WANTED TO HEAR NONE OF IT. SO NOW HERE I AM AGAIN, BROKEN SPEEDOMETER, ENGINE THAT STALLS OFTEN AND A SUMMONS TO BOOT. I NEED HELP AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE TO TURN THE DEALERSHIPS ARE OF NO HELP. JACQUELINE KING *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 PONTIAC GRAND AM. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TURN SIGNALS WORK INTERMITTENTLY AND THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET FAILED IN JANUARY OF 2005. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A SMALL TOWN WITHOUT A GM DEALER AND WAS REPAIRED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE GASKET WITH AN AFTER MARKET MANIFOLD GASKET. HOWEVER, THE REPLACEMENT GASKET WAS ALSO DEFECTIVE AND CAUSED THE ENTIRE MANIFOLD TO BE REPAIRED A THIRD TIME. THE COST OF THE REPAIR WAS $829.59. THE CONTACT WANTS TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THE REPAIR SINCE THE MANIFOLD WAS DEFECTIVE. THE SPEED WAS UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 150,000.

MY 2003 GMC SIERRA 1500 SLE HAS CORRODED BRAKE, TRANSMISSION AND FUEL LINES. A CERTIFIED MECHANIC STATED THAT THEY ALL NEED REPLACED OR BREAKAGE AND LEAKAGE WILL OCCUR WITHOUT WARNING CAUSING BREAK, TRANSMISSION OR FUEL DELIVERY OR FIRE DAMAGES. PLEASE HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM ASAP. 00. *TR

EVERYTIME I SLOW DOWN TO STOP, THE BRAKE PEDAL GROWLS AND IT FEELS AS IF THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES COME ON. THE TRUCK KEEPS ROLLING, AND I'VE ALMOST HIT THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME NUMEROUS TIMES. IT'S A 1997 GMC SIERRA. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW BEGAN LOSING ABILITY TO LIFT/LOWER AFTER BEING LOWERED ONE DAY WHILE WINDOW HAD MOISTURE ON IT. TOOK IT TO GM DEALER AFTER WINDOW BECAME TOTALLY STUCK DOWN AND WAS TOLD IT WAS MOTOR. A MONTH LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN. WAS TOLD IT WAS REGULATOR. THREE MONTHS LATER HAPPENED AGAIN, ONLY THIS TIME TO PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW. HAVE YET TO TAKE IT IN AGAIN BECAUSE CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT WINDOW MOTOR REGULATOR SHOULD LAST AROUND 5 YEARS. IT ALSO MAKES ME WONDER WHY THIS ONLY HAPPENED AFTER THE WINDOWS WERE OPENED/SHUT WITH MOISTURE ON THEM (DEW FROM AM. THIS DOES POSE A SAFETY HAZARD IN MY OPINION AS WE HAVE TROUBLE MAKERS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHO DELIGHT IN SHOOTING PAINT BALLS AT CARS AT NIGHT, AND I DON'T LIKE HAVING AN OPEN WINDOW IN WHICH IT CAN GO FLYING THROUGH AND HIT ME IN THE EYE/HEAD), AS WELL AS A GENERAL INCONVENIENCE. I WOULD LIKE AN INVESTIGATION DONE ON WHETHER OR NOT THE MOISTURE HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THESE FAILING WINDOWS. PLEASE UPDATE ON WHAT IS FOUND OUT. THANK YOU. AND I CHECKED PROPERTY DAMAGE BECAUSE OF THE MOISTURE DAMAGE THAT RESULTED TO MY VEHICLE (AND EVERYTHING IN IT) BECAUSE OF A STORM WE HAD WHILE THE WINDOW WAS STUCK DOWN. SO TO ME THAT IS PROPERTY DAMAGE. *AK

I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE HEATER CORE 5 TIMES. THE FIRST TIME WAS 1 MONTH AFTER I PURCHASED THE JIMMY USED AT REEDMANS AUTO WORLD IN PA. 2 MONTHS AFTER THAT IT WAS REPLACED AGAIN 6 MONTHS LATER AND EVERY WINTER SINCE. I HAVE HEARD THERE WAS A IONIC PROBLEM WITH THE JIMMYS THAT SEND AND ELECTRICAL CURRENT THE MOTOR, CAUSING THE HEATER CORES TO JUST EAT AWAY CAUSING THEM TO BE REPLACE. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS REPLACE SINCE I HAVE HAD THE JIMMY( THEY WERE ALSO REPLACED BY THE ORIGINAL OWNER. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE MOUNTS AND MY READITOR SINCE THE MOTOR MOUNTS BROKE AND SENT THE ENGINE THRU MY RADIATOR. ALL PROBLEMS WERE FIXED MOSTLY AT THE DEALER. HOWEVER. THE HEATER CORE HAS NOW BLOWN AGAIN I HAVE NO HEAT OR AIR. IF I TURN THEM ONE THE COOLANT GUSHES OUT OF THE CAR. I NO LONGER HAVE A EXTRA WARRANTY(EXPIRED 8/06) AND CANNOT GET IT FIXED.. NOTHING SEEMS TO CORRECT THE HEATER CORE PROBLEM. 8AK

As I'm driving in my car the normal/regular headlights on the GMC Sierra were so bright that I could not see the road in front of me. I could include the Subaru lineup and the Toyota Rav4 in this. I have not seen such bright lights other than when others have had their high-beams on. Please do something. Thank you.

OUR 2001 CHEVROLET VENTURE ONLY HAS 78,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FROM ABOUT THE TIME WE PURCHASED IT. IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS , FEBRUARY/MARCH 2007 WE HAVE PUT $5000 INTO OUR VAN. WE REPLACED THE INTAKE GASKET FOR THE SECOND TIME. THE FIRST ONE WAS DONE BY THE DEALER, VERY POOR JOB. WE HAD NUMEROUS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING AT ANY GIVEN TIME. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS, ON AND OFF. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHILE UNDER WARRANTY, AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. WE THEN TOOK IT AGAIN OFF WARRANTY AND THEY STILL COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. AS TIME PASSED, IT BEGUN TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN AND BECOME A PROBLEM. I BECAME A NERVOUS WRECK WHILE DRIVING, HOPING AND PRAYING IT WOULD MAKE IT TO EACH DESTINATION. IN FEBRUARY 2007 IT HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES TO AND FROM WORK AND THIS ONE WAS THE LAST STRAW, IT STALLED ON THE FREEWAY WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH AND BLOCKED TRAFFIC. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC TO GET THE JOB DONE. THE DEALER IS COMPLETELY USELESS. IN ADDITION TO MY PROBLEM, THE LIGHT PANELS MELTED IN THE REAR LIGHTS, THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH BURNED OUT, THE FUSE BOX WAS SHORTED OUT, THE DEALER INSTALLED ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM WAS INSTALLED INCORRECTLY AND ALSO SHUT OUR SYSTEM DOWN, HAD TO HAVE REMOVED. REAR AC BLOWER HAD TO BE REPLACED, NOW THE AC SYSTEM DOESN'T WORK AT ALL, NEEDS NEW CONDENSER. LIGHTS AND INSTRUMENT PANEL FLICKERED DUE TO ALTERNATOR GOING OUT, HAD TO HAVE ALTERNATOR REPLACED. WE WILL NEVER BUY A CHEVROLET AGAIN... UNFORTUNATELY WE HAVE HAD A VERY BAD EXPERIENCE WITH THIS VEHICLE AND THE DEALER; COINCIDENTALLY, COULD NEVER FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. *AK

My chest hit the steering wheel and my neck was jerked forward and no airbag. Not sure if something is wrong woth the sensor or what. Also be advised the fatality in this incident was the cow annoyed down below.

2007 GMC ACADIA SLT-1 PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. AND THE DISPLAY IN THE DASH SAYS PASSENGER AIR BAG NEEDS SERVICING. I CONTACTED GMC AND THEY SAID THEY HAD NO RECALLS LISTED FOR MY VEHICLE BASED ON MY VIN NUMBER BUT HAVE FOUND SEVERAL WEBSITES THAT SAYS THERE SHOULD BE AN OPEN RECALL BASED ON MY VEHICLES YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL. *TR

I HAVE A 2002 SATURN SL2 AND I'VE HAD TO REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION TWICE NOW. I BELIEVE THAT THE DEALERSHIP IN MANCHESTER, NH KNOWINGLY SOLD IT TO ME LIKE THIS SINCE I HAD BROUGHT UP A VERY SLIGHT SPEED UP EFFECT THE CAR HAD TO THE CAR SALES WOMAN, AND SHE HAD TOLD ME THAT IT WAS BECAUSE THE CAR HAD A SLIGHTLY MORE POWERFUL ENGINE THAN THE 4.0 I WAS USED TO (IT HAD A 4.6) AND THE JUMP WAS JUST THE "EXTRA POWER". I HAVEN'T EVEN OWNED THE CAR FOR 18 MONTHS YET. IT'S A PIECE OF CRAP AND I HAVE A PRETTY BITTER TASTE IN MY MOUTH FROM DEALING WITH THE CAR DEALERSHIPS IN NH AND IN MD. THE DEALERSHIP IN SALISBURY, MD WANTED TO CHARGE ME $3100 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION. I NOTICED (AFTER THE FACT) THAT THERE WAS SOME TECHNICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION FROM THE BEGINNING IN ALL '02 S-SERIES, BUT I REALLY THINK THAT IF THERE'S SO MANY PEOPLE HAVING ISSUES THAT THERE SHOULD BE SOME SORT OF RECALL ON THE PRODUCT. IT HAS ALREADY COST ME ABOUT $5000 ON TOP OF THE 9,000 THAT I HAVE ALREADY SPENT TO PURCHASE IT (COST OF CAR PLUS BANK INTEREST FOR LOAN). THE CAR IS HARDLY WORTH $14,000 BUT I'M STILL UPSIDE-DOWN ON MY LOAN SO I CAN'T GET RID OF THE THING. I'VE LOOKED INTO THE RESEARCH ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE IN HOPES THAT IT WILL GIVE SOME INSIGHT ON HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM PERMANENTLY (MORE MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN) BUT SATURN SHOULD REALLY BE REPRIMANDED OR MADE TO REIMBURSE THE CUSTOMERS SOMEHOW. CARS ARE REALLY TOO BIG OF A PURCHASE FOR THINGS TO GO THIS WRONG. *TR

MAJOR WINDOW FAILURE, ONLY ONE WINDOW WORKS, AND TOO EXPENSIVE TO FIX. MY CAR HAS 70,000 MILES AND I HAVE HAD FUEL PUMP FAILURE, TOTAL RADIATOR FAILURE, AND TWO HEAT EXCHANGER FAILURES RESULTED IN RADIATOR FLUID ALL OVER PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR DUE TOO CHEAP CRIMPS ON HEAT EXCHANGER WHICH REQUIRES A HUGH DASH DISMANTLE TO FIX, WINDOW FAILURE, DASH HEAT AND A/C CONTROL FAILURE. THE CAR GETS DRIVEN 11 MILES A DAY TO WORK AND BACK AND WE HAVE PUT $1000'S INTO THIS PIECE OF CRAP. DEALER AND MANUFACTURER COULD CARE LESS AND WANT THIS WEBSITE REMOVED. NO ONE IS WILLING TO DO A THING. WILL BE SWITCHING BRANDS ASAP TO DODGE OR CHRYSLER. *JB
