HAPPENS WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, HAPPENS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, HAPPENS COMING OUT OF TURNS,ALSO IN STRAIGHT LINE MOTION. POSES A SAFETY RISK SUCH AS WHEN ENTERING AN INTERSECTION AND NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE THROUGH THE INTERSECTION TO AVOID COLLISION WITH OTHER VEHICLES CROSSING THAT INTERSECTION.

MY GMC TERRAIN 2011 IS HAVING TROUBLE ACCELERATING, AND I HEAR A NOISE FROM THE ENGINE. WHEN I AM AT A STOP LIGHT AND I TRY TO ACCELERATE, IT PULLS AND DOESN'T GO FORWARD. IT'S STALKING MY TERRAIN. I DID SOME RESEARCH, AND I FOUND THAT THIS VEHICLE HAS A RECALL #12313D- SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT- ENGINE BALANCE CHAIN AND FUEL PUMP. I LOOKED UP, AND IT SEEMS THIS VEHICLE HAS 0 UNCLAIMED RECALLS. SO, I'M CONCERN BECAUSE THIS VEHICLE IS STALLING AND NOT WORKING AS IT SHOULD BE. THE RECALL DOES SAY, 'IF LEFT UNTREATED, COULD CAUSE THE CHAIN TO BREAK, LEADING TO ENGINE DAMAGED.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE STABILITY TRACK/REDUCED ENGINE POWER COMING ON. I WILL BE DRIVING AND THEN THE REDUCED ENGINE POWER WITH AN EXCLAMATION MARK POPS UP, MY CAR SPEED DROPS AND THEN THE CAR CUTS OFF. THE CAR WOULD CRANK BACK UP AFTER SITTING FOR A WHILE. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS, I FOUND THAT SEVERAL OTHER GMC, CHEVY AND CADILLACS HAD THIS SAME ISSUE AND WERE GIVEN THE RUN AROUND BY GMC WHEN TRYING TO HAVE IT FIXED. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THOSE VEHICLES BUT NOT THE TERRAIN. I HAVE HAD THE THROTTLE BODY CLEANED LIKE SUGGESTED AND THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM OCCURS NO MATTER IF I AM ON THE HIGHWAY OR REGULAR STREETS. BEING A SINGLE PARENT OF 3 AND LEGAL GUARDIAN OF 1 GRANDCHILD, I DON'T HAVE MONEY TO KEEP TRYING TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE. I HAD MY TRANSMISSION LOOKED AT AND THAT WAS NOT THE ISSUE. HOW CAN I GET THEM TO CORRECT THE STABILITY TRACK/REDUCED ENGINE POWER ISSUE? I HAVE BEEN WITHOUT MY CAR FOR A WEEK NOW. THIS IS MAKING IT HARD TO GET BACK AND FORTH TO WORK. I AM ACTUALLY CALLING THE GMC HEADQUARTERS TO REPORT THIS ISSUE AND THEN THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU.

ABS LIGHT IS ON EVEN AFTER FIXING THE SUPPOSED PROBLEM. SYSTEM STABILITRAK CONSTANTLY ON. EXCESSIVE USE OF OIL. 2 TO 3 QUARTZ EVERY 2 WEEKS. REDUCED ENGINE POWER COMES UP ON DASH AND NO MATTER HOW FAST I AM GOING (15 MPH OR 80 MPH ON A HIGHWAY) IT DOESNT MATTER MY CAR WILL SLOW DOWN OR JUST SHUT OFF. ALSO HAPPENS WHEN I HAVE TO HIT BRAKED HARD, SLOW DOWN OR ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION. I AM ALSO USING A LOT OF GAS.

WHILE DRIVE DOWN THE INTERSTATE MY CAR SAID SERVICE STABILITY TRACK THEN SAID ENGINE POWER REDUCED, SPEED DROPPED DRAMATICALLY THEN SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN BACK OVER. HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP ONLY TO FIND OUT THE ENGINE LOCKED UP DUE TO NO OIL. DEALER SAID IT WAS DUE TO A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH GM WITH EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION! I HAD MY OIL CHANGED AND A FULL TUNE UP 2 WEEKS AGO! CALLED TO CHECK RECALLS ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT IN FACT THERE WAS AN RECALL FOR EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION BUT MY VIN WASN'T INVOLVED. DEALER SAYS IN FACT IT SHOULD BE! THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A ACCIDENT AND CAUSED MY CHILDREN AND I TO BE SERIOUSLY INJURED!

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR CUT OFF AS SOON AS I SLOWED DOWN GETTING OFF THE EXIT. I STARTED THE CAR BACK UP AND IT SAID THAT THE STABILITRACK WAS OFF AND THAT I WAS LOSING ENGINE POWER. I GOT TO SAFETY, CHECKED MY FLUIDS AND I HAD NO OIL IN THE CAR. BUT I CHANGED THE OIL RECENTLY AND HAD 3,000 MORE MILES TILL MY NEXT OIL CHANGE. I TOWED THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC AND DESCRIBED WHAT HAPPENED. HE TOLD ME THAT THEIR WAS AN INTERNAL ENGINE FAILURE THAT CAUSED THE TIMING BELT TO BREAK. I CALLED MY INSURANCE AND THEY HAD A FIELD ADJUSTER LOOK AT THE VEHICLE AND HE NOR THE MECHANIC COULD FIGURE OUT WHY OR HOW THIS HAPPENED ON SUCH A WELL MAINTAINED VEHICLE. THEY BOTH STATED THAT THERE IS NO WAY THAT I SHOULD HAVE HAD 2 MAJOR SYSTEM FAILURES (I JUST REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION) WITH THE CURRENT VEHICLE MILEAGE. I CALLED GMC AND THEY WILL NOT SO ANYTHING TO HELP ME. THEIR ONLY SOLUTION IS FOR ME TO TOW IT TO A GMC DEALERSHIP AND THEY WILL LOOK AT IT. I COULD'VE DIED IN THIS CAR, I STILL OWE ON THIS CAR AND THEY WON'T HELP ME.

THIS CAR STALLS FOR NO REASON WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE FIXED IT MULTIPLE TIMES BUT NO FIX WORKS. IT STALLED ON ME WHILE EXITING THE FREEWAY YESTERDAY, VERY SCARY SITUATION. I AM WORRIED I WILL BE IN A WRECK. I PRESS THE GAS AND THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE. VERY DANGEROUS IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT STALLS WHILE MAKING A TURN IN A INTERSECTION. ALMOST GOT T-BONED THE OTHER DAY WHEN IT STALLED WHILE A CAR WAS ONCOMING. SINCE GM IS NOT WILLING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM AND HAVE NOT FIX IN PLACE I WILL BE GETTING RID OF THE CAR AT MY LOSS.

WHILE DRIVING MESSAGE READ REDUCED ENGINE POWER LOST ALL POWER COULD NOT CONTROL THE STEERING WHEEL! THEN THE CAR SHUT DOWN AND CONTINUED TO ROLL DOWN THE HIGHWAY .ALMOST GOT HIT BY OTHER CARS FROM BEHIND. VERY FRIGHTENING FOR ME I ALMOST GOT A PANIC ATTACK. I MANAGED TO STOP THE CAR ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD WITH HALF OF THE CAR STILL BLOCKING OTHER CARS .CAR WILL NOT START. THE BATTERY IS NEW .I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND THERE'S THOUSANDS OF GM CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE OR ARE FACING THE SAME ISSUES. IS THIS ANOTHER COVER UP BY GM THAT'S CONTINUOUSLY IGNORING THIS PROBLEM AND THE CONSUMERS ARE PAYING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN THIS REPAIR. I WAS TOLD I NEED REPAIRS THAT WILL COST $4000 DOLLARS ON A 2011 GMC TERRAIN CAR I GOT A YEAR AGO. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. WHO IS FIGHTING FOR THE CONSUMERS? *TR

DURING A NORMAL COMMUTE ON ROUTE ON 2/15 RECEIVED ABOUT 3 MILES INTO THE DRIVE RECEIVED A WARNING ERROR - LOSS OF ENGINE POWER AND THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE CAR STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND RECEIVED A STABILITITRAK ERROR. THE CAR WAS PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND PLACED IN NEUTRAL. THE SHAKING BECAME WORSE AND THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF. AFTER TWO MINUTES THE CAR WAS STARTED AGAIN, WITH NO ISSUES AND WAS DRIVEN 6 MORE MILES WITHOUT ISSUE. AFTER 6 MILES OF DRIVING THE SAME ENGINE POWER WARNING AND STABILITRACK ERROR CAME BACK. THE CAR WAS VIOLENTLY SHAKING AND THE DRIVER SHUT IT OFF. IT WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP RECEIVED ONE CODE FOR THE THROTTLE SENSOR POSITIONER. THE CODE WAS RESET AND A LOOSE CONNECTION WAS DIAGNOSED AS THE FAULT AND RETURNED TO OWNER. FIVE DAYS LATER THE CAR WAS STARTED IN THE GARAGE. UPON STARTUP IT STARTED AGAIN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE CAR WAS PUT IN REVERSE AND BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND THE DRIVER RECEIVED A STABILITRAK WARNING LIGHT. THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF AND WAS AGAIN TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP FOUND TWO CODES CRANK POSITION SENSOR AND MISFIRE. THE CAR WAS DRIVEN FIVE MILES WITH NO ISSUES. THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT LOCATE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THIS UNDIAGNOSED ISSUE POSSES A SEVERE SAFETY RISK TO THE OWNER OF THE CAR AND FAMILY IF IT WERE TO OCCUR AGAIN WHILE DRIVING IN CONGESTED TRAFFIC OR ON A HIGHWAY. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN LOST POWER. THE REDUCED POWER AND CHECK STABILITRAK MESSAGES APPEARED ON THE SCREEN. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. I IMMEDIATELY TRIED STARTING THE VEHICLE AGAIN AND IT DID, SO WENT ON MY WAY. GOT DOWN THE ROAD ABOUT THREE MILES AND THE SAME THING, SO PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. I TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE, BUT THERE WAS NO RESPONSE, EVERYTHING WAS DEAD. I WAITED SEVERAL MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN AND IT STARTED. I CONTINUED ON MY WAY AND DIDN'T HAVE ANYMORE TROUBLE GETTING TO MY DESTINATION. A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED EXCEPT WHEN I TRIED TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, IT CONTINUED TO RUN VERY ROUGHLY AND THEN FINALLY SHUT OFF. IT DID START AGAIN AND HAD THE ENGINE LIGHT ON. I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL GMC DEALER WHEN THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED, HOWEVER WHEN THEY TRIED TO READ THE CODES, THERE WERE NO CODES TO READ EVEN THOUGH THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. I WAS TOLD EVERYTHING CHECKED OUT FINE. I WAS DOWN THE TO DEALER AGAIN TODAY WITH THE ENGINE LIGHT ON AGAIN, BUT BEFORE THEY COULD CHECK IT OUT, THE ENGINE LIGHT HAD GONE OUT. TO ME THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM AS IT CAN VERY EASILY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. SO FAR I'VE BEEN LUCKY THAT I HAVEN'T LOST THE POWER STEERING OR BRAKES. *TR
