After I put my car in park my daughter and I were still in the vehicle for a few minutes getting our things with the engine still running. I got out to get something from the back seat, my daughter got out the passenger door and made it to the driver side as I was closing the back passenger door. I was about to get back on the car to get the rest of my things and turn the ignition off but before I could my car was rolling backwards out of the driveway into the street. I was able to jump in the vehicle and put my foot on the brake and the put the gear into Park. There’s no way possible I didn’t put it in Park with me getting out already and my daughter couldn’t have accidentally shift the gear because she couldn’t have been able to get out, close the door and make it to the driver side before it started rolling away. Once I got the car stopped, I noticed the driver seat was now all the way to the steering wheel and completely to the floor with the headrest also tilting inwards and now the electrical for the seat will not work. There is a recall for this issue but my vin# is not included. I cannot even drive my car now because the seat is so far up and inclined. what if the seat moves up more while I’m driving and it has me pinned between the steering wheel and the seat. I don’t feel safe driving it, having my daughter as a passenger and it’s really not safe to be on the road. I’m still paying on this car and now i won’t even be able to drive to work. So I’ll probably lose my job. This car has multiple issues and I think is an electrical problem. It’s also a known major defect on this model but still not a recall for my vin #! None of my interior sound works. Speakers, blinkers, alerts, back up camera. The auto start won’t start, I have to press the key fob multiple times to lock and unlock. This car is extremely unsafe to drive and I strongly feel my cars vin# should be listed under the recall. Its going to really affect my daily life and means of income. Lemon!
My 2014 GMC Acadia constantly displays “Service Stabilitrak,” “Service Traction Control,” ABS, brake, and check-engine warning lights. The vehicle will not accelerate past 40 mph under normal driving. Recently, the vehicle began showing “Engine Power Reduced” randomly without any warning, and the vehicle loses power suddenly. The OBD2 code P1682 (Ignition 1 Circuit/Relay failure) appears every time. This issue has caused the vehicle to jerk, lose acceleration, and even stall in the middle of an intersection during rush-hour traffic while my children were in the car, creating a serious safety hazard. These warnings and symptoms are constant, and the power-reduction events occur unpredictably. No official inspection has been completed by the manufacturer. The failed component is still in the vehicle and available for inspection. The malfunction affects traction control, stability control, braking systems, and engine power, putting occupants and other drivers at risk.
The contact owns a 2014 GMC Acadia. The contact stated that while at a stop, the vehicle experienced a loss of automotive power. In addition, the contact stated that upon further inspection, the fuel gauge failed to properly display the fuel level. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a local independent mechanic, where the unknown repairs were made; however, the traction control, ABS, Stabili-trak, and seat belt warning lights illuminated. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. In addition, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign: 14V614000 (Electrical System), 14V266000 (Seat Belts), 21V246000 (Air Bags), and 14V223000 (Electrical System, Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

Vehicle is randomly stalling or going into limp mode when driving. Has done it in intersections, driving down the hight way and even stopped in a parking lot. No warning but throws codes unrelated to the problem. I’ve been told that it shuts off half of my engine randomly while running and that contributes to the stall. Can cause accident if stalls while turning or even if in wrong lane on high way. You loose all power steering and basically have to coast to safety. Sometimes it re starts some times your stuck there with no reasons for it to not re start. Usually it starts same day when this happens but hours later. Sometimes it stutters and you know it’s coming but not often will you get this warning. I’ve replaced every thing in every code it’s thrown and still can’t go a week without stalling out. Very unsafe for families just trying to go anywhere. Has done in an hour into a trip or three minutes down the road. All weather conditions as well. I’ve had it to two different garages with no luck yet. Have found a bulletin on wiring for the fuse box which seems promising for the issue but am worried about putting more money into something so unreliable. At this point it’s dangerous to drive and is a safety hazard.
Got onto the interstate and suddenly my car stopped but didn’t kill. My traction control light said off and then it said reduced engine power and my fuel went down to E. I couldn’t go but my car was still running. I killed it then waited a minute and started it again and it started moving slowly. Then it said service stabliltrak and traction system but since the light have went off. Around the same time I started hearing popping and crackling sounds from my speaker and now I have no interior sound at all just popping sounds no matter if my car is started or not. I’m scared it’s going to catch on fire or something

Stalls while driving stability track and traction control shut off
Vehicle stalls intermittently. Due to an earlier recall of the same model but not including the one I own. There is electrical shorting inside the fuse box in the ignition circuitry that causes this problem. This is a huge problem as there is no preemptive warning. Whether you're driving 5 mph or 55 mph it happens suddenly and without any warning. The incident is stored in OBDII codes. There are no warning lamps until after 5he vehicle stalls out. #PIT5643.

I have many problems with this vehicle, numerous times. Inaccurate Fuel Gauge Reading- It has resulted in my vehicle running out of fuel and stalling, while on road. I have 4 children who are at risk of danger while in vehicle.The fuel warning light has illuminated when the gauge needle says I still have more than plenty of amount (a quarter of a tank or more at times. It differs). It was diagnosed with an electrical and fuel system failure. Electrical shorts and problems- Having electrical shorts on and off. Check engine light comes on/off Vehicle randomly failed to start. My vehicle was difficult to start and would require several attempts before starting. Power lock/unlock key fob doesn't work, replaced battery multiple times.windows and sunroof power windows do no work. Radio and dash turn off and restart. Check airbag light has been coming on and off. Power Train intermittently, the transmission shifts with a loud thump, at various speeds. Vehicle starts shaking and jerking while shifting gears and going different speeds. My vehicle slows down, power reduce engine and steering difficult at times. Other/ water leak- Found water in all of my tail light assemblies, headlight assemblies, sunroof and windows leaking. There is no proper seal or has worn off, causing leaks in and repairs for many replacements, which are expensive temp fixes with no permanent solution. Causes accidents by not having necessary working equipment for driving conditions. Other:Hood doesn't latch and stay open so difficult to even check fluids properly alone. Multiple dealers have inspected problems, and needs to be fixed. There are recalls out for many of these problems and my vehicle needs to be on the list for serious safety issues.
I have 2 concerns and issues with my vehicle. 1st is the rear turn signal bulb and housing, I have read forums and researched the issue and many others have had the same issues and concerns, water is getting into the housing and is causing the bulb to blow and can possibly be causing fire/electrical with the wiring. 2nd is the front headlights the plastic round covering that's in surrounding the the glass that the light sits behind is melting and is causing visibility issues as well as potential fire. I can imagine why the plastic would be installed so close to a glass covering that holds heat. I really think that GMC needs to evaluate these concerns not only for safety but also the expense of the turn signal bulb that has been designed and cost over $100 because it couldn't be a simple bulb like most others. Also I have been informed of a recall of the airbag and can't get it fixed because the dealerships haven't been sent the part! I would like to be notified that someone has aknowledged my concern. Thanks
I took my 2014 GMC Acadia into the dealership I purchased it at because my airbag light was on. This was before the recall. I was told at that time that nothing was wrong and and I probably hit a bump and juggled something loose. I paid $190 for that. Now my vehicle is in the shop and I can no longer operate it or sell it because it is deemed unsafe due to this recall. I contacted GMC and there is no remedy for this. It has been 8 months. This is not timely. They would not offer a replacement, refund or a loaner vehicle. I recorded this call and received a case number. I believe this is against federal law. I then contracted the dealership I purchased the vehicle through and they will not provide a rental or repair or replace my vehicle either. N fact, they were trying to get me to do $4,000 in repairs. This may fall under the lemon law and I contacted an attorney. Some people have been without vehicles 8 months now since this recall occurred. This is absurd. I had one vehicle that now I cannot use. I need to be made whole.I have 5 children. Who is responsible? I will not stop until I get compensated. There are a total of 6 recalls out on my car. Only one has been closed. The seatbelt. The other recalls could cause major damage to expensive components like the engine and transmission. The EUC was under recall and was never fixed in my vehicle also. I found this out through a search on kbb.com. This may have in turn caused more out of pocket expenses
I have had many problems relating to this vehicle, for only owning it for a year. Inaccurate Fuel Gauge Reading- My fuel gauge is inaccurate. It has resulted in my vehicle running out of fuel and stalling, while on road. I have 4 children who are at risk of danger while in vehicle.The fuel warning light has illuminated when the gauge needle says I still have more than plenty of amount (a quarter of a tank or more at times. It differs). I have taken to many shops, it was diagnosed with an electrical and fuel system failure. Electrical shorts and problems- Having electrical shorts on and off. Check engine light comes on/off Vehicle randomly failed to start with no good reason/cause. My vehicle was difficult to start and would require several attempts before starting. Power lock/unlock fob doesn't work, replaced battery multiple times. My windows and sunroof power windows do no work and unable to fully close on/off at times. Check airbag light has been coming on and off. Power Train intermittently, the transmission shifts with a loud thump, at various speeds. Vehicle starts shaking and jerking while shifting gears and going different speeds. My vehicle slows down, power reduce engine and steering difficult at times. Other/ water leak- Found water in all of my tail light assemblies, headlight assemblies, sunroof and windows leaking. There is no proper seal or has worn off, causing leaks in and repairs for many replacements, which are expensive temp fixes with no permanent solution. Causes accidents by not having necessary working equipment for driving conditions. Other:Hood doesn't latch and stay open so difficult to even check fluids properly alone. Multiple dealers have inspected problems, some have not been able to pin point the problem for some of these issues or have been charged unaffordable amount before fixing, and only diagnosing problem. There are recalls out for many of these problems and my vehicle needs to be on the list for serious safety issues!
Passenger Airbag indicator light stays "On" at all times(with or without a seated front passenger) Indicating that "Passenger Airbag is " OFF". Concern that the Airbag System is not functioning properly, thus exposing the front seat passenger to injury in the event of an accident. YES. On 02/24/2023 the vehicle was inspected by an independent service center. Note: a copy of the report/findings is available. The tech determined that two conditions existed; Codes B0023 and B0085. Only my independent service center has inspected/tested the vehicle. On 11/24/2023 I contacted my GMC Dealer to discuss the issue. I was informed of my options. It is my intention to schedule an appointment ASAP. The problem began in January 2023 with the indicator lamp coming on randomly.
I have been having the same issue with my car for 11 months now. My car has been in the shop more than in my possession. I have paid for repairs that did not solve the problem as well as thousands in car rental fees. When I am driving my car at over 70 MPH on the expressway the dash board lights up with a check engine light and then reads traction control turned off, service stabilitrak and the reduced engine power. The car then reduces down to just over 30 MPH right in the middle of the expressway. I've barely missed several accidents that could have killed someone. I have been in and out of the dealership as well as contacted GMC directly. This seems to be a common issue in this make and model of GMC (2014 ACADIA) and I am getting no where with any help or compensation from them. I was just quoted today for another almost $1900.00 repair that may not even solve the issue. I am still paying on this vehicle and am a front line worker who relies on this vehicle as I am a traveling Occupational Therapist. I don't think it's right that big business can just run over the little guys like this, not to mention the safety aspect and possible death can result in this issue. They have also not fixed the recall on the air bags which can lead to death as well. Please tell me there is something can be done about this.

1.- Found water in the doors electrical connectors, the radio, alerts, blinkers sounds stops working and makes an electric short circuit sound. Informatic radio systems works on and off. 2.- break pedal with unusual play this make the stop lights turn on all the time and triggers the stabilitytrack system fails the car it’s like speeding up and down. 3.- the previous problem play in the break pedal triggers a transmission malfunction Does not change gears and makes the engine loose power preventing a major damages but at same time it’s very dangerous while driving because we never know when it will happen the failure.
The contact owns a 2014 GMC Acadia. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the air bag warning light illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who determined that the air bag wiring for the driver’s and passenger’s side air bags needed to be re-soldered to the air bag sensors. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was 133,440.

On 3 occasions vehicle will shut off while driving down the road. When restarted goes into limp mode. Have at repair shop now and they stated there was a campaign on the electrical fuse box but my Vin is not included. This is a complete disaster waiting to happen on busy roadways. Waiting for the parts to arrive so they can replace it, stated they see wires arcing. This is a $1000.00 bill that is most definitely a safety issue, perhaps someone jumped the gun on which Vin numbers to include. I am fortunate that I wasn't on the interstate when this happened. Very upset.
There is a water leak problem with the Acadia ! My car had a dead battery and when it was time to change the compartment was full of water I also get water under steering wheel.
Since I have owned this vehicle, my blind spot alert system has failed 3 times. In every occurrence, the warning lights in the mirror have been stuck in the "on" position. It has occurred at approximately 60k miles, 100k miles, and now 150k miles. In each occurrence, it was a defective sensor module due to the location of the module that allows water to get into the box. The blind spot light stays on constantly and no longer detects vehicle located in the blind spot of the vehicle. In every case, the cost of the repair was over $800 to replace the box.
The contact owns a 2014 GMC Acadia. The contact stated while starting the vehicle the radio was inoperable and the air bag sensor would chime as if a passenger was seated in the passenger’s seat and not using the seat belt. Additionally, the power locks were inoperable, and the yellow lights for the blind side detection system were illuminated and remained illuminated. The contact also stated that the heater and A/C functioned sporadically. Additionally, the vehicle was difficult to start and would require several attempts before starting. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a dealer or independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 161,000.

First problem is the trunk door. About a week ago I was getting something out of my trunk and accidently hit the button and the door started to close so i tried to get away from it and somehow my arm got caught and there is absolutly NO sensor to stop the trunk from crushing my arm. Unforunately, i did have some injury to my arm from the trunk coming down and have pictures of the brusing on my arm. A sensor to stop the trunk from closing on a body part or anything for that matter needs to be better made or put in the vehicle. I took pictures of my arm days later because i was in to much pain to take them when it happened. It was not a fun injurying. Saturday night iced it, sunday had to have it elevated because it was so swollen, didnt take the picture until Wednesday when it finally had calmed down. There is bruising and swelling still on Wednesday. this happened July 9th Second problem i recently had an issue with my wiring i guess it was. Specifically it was reduced engine power message displayed and my engine stalled out on me. I was told that this is a common problem with Buick Enclaves, Chevrolet Traverses, and GMC Acadia's which is the car i have. Being that this is a common issue wouldnt this be something that would be concerned a RECALL? i dont know how recalls so im more curious about it. my car stalled out on me in the middle of traffic on July 16th
I was driving down the road 55 mph and my acadia stalled. Then stabiltrac and traction control turn off then it goes to half power. So then i have to pull over wait a few minutes and restart it. This happens everyday and im nervous to see even drive my truck and it is a safety risk as it could cause a accident. I also read on the internet that it has affected multiple years and models so im not sure why there is no recall
Vehicle went from running fine to stalled out instantly. Restarted ok and ran rough for a moment then perfectly fine again. Third time was in a busy intersection nearly causing an accident. Got it restarted and took it to service. The code reported is for the engine fuse box and the part was on backorder. That got me curious so I did a search and see this appears to be a recurring problem including a lawsuit that was dismissed for some reason this Spring. Clearly, this is a problem and a potentially very dangerous one. The more I read, the more I see this exact issue popping up across multiple GMC lines using the same configuration. This needs to be investigated before someone is involved in a major accident.
I have had the same problem for 3 years now and have taken my vehicle to a GM dealership many times for the same issue and it is definitely an issue . My car keeps throwing up TCM issue and ECM and I have asked for the modules to be checked. I have reasearched these issues and it seems to be the same with many vehicles like mine so that should be a red flag. My car will slow down, power reduce engine, traction control off, and my steering will be difficult and sometimes I can’t even get off the road in time, which is very dangerous. I have seen recalls on electrical issues and wonder if my vehicle has damaged recall parts. I am a single mother who has to work and get my child to school and can’t do so properly with my vehicle doing this all the time. It’s very frustrating.
My wife was driving at highway speeds (70MPH) on the interstate in Chicago when without warning her cluster lights appeared and her vehicle lost propulsion (stalled, Stall, died). She had no warning and the area had no shoulder for her to pull off into so she had to come to a complete stop in the right lane of the highway. People are doing speeds well above 70MPH, I would hate to think of what could have happened if a person or line of vehicles could not change lanes in time; very serious injuries and possibly death for all invovled. Fortunatly, she had the sense to put the car in park (highway lane) and completed a key cycle thus restarting the vehicle and then obviously accelerating quickly to get out of harms way. As people are swirving out of her lane and honking at her. I put our VIN into the NHTSA site and see the vehicle has no outstanding recalls. Then i search just the model year and come across a recall (14V-614, GM recall number 14515) that appears to be the same issue we may have had. In the vehicle information section of the 573 it lists: Descriptive Information : 2014 GMC Acadia Production Dates : JUN 27, 2013 - SEP 26, 2013 Plugging my VIN into a VIN decoder, i see that my vehicle was built July 26, 2013; this falls within the suspect time of this recall. Why have I not been notified of this recall? Why is the NHTSA tool not show my vehicle as being affected? This could have been a very a tragic ending. I hope you (NHTSA) reach out directly to GM to figure out why my vehicle was not included in the recall. Why my wife was put in harms way.
While traveling approximately 75mph the Service Traction Control light came on followed closely by the Low Oil Pressure Stop Engine Immediately light. We attempted to travel to a more safe area along the interstate. Within seconds the engine immediately shut off causing the loss of power steering and power brakes. The steering wheel locked in place causing the total loss of steering control. We were able to bring the vehicle to a safe stop, I would attribute this success to my being a Defensive Driver Instructor and Transportation Safety Professional. The risk associated with the issues we were faced with could have easily ended in tragedy especially at this speed (75 mph, 80 mph zone) The diagnosis of the vehicle was inconclusive due to the number of codes that were shown. The vehicle was no longer functional and had to be replaced. No documentation, other than the bill for towing is available. Diagnosis was done at no charge.
Air Bag Service code shows up. It can be removed briefly by moving the seat back and forth. I did some research and this is similar to the recalls for older years previously issued with the wiring harness causing the air bags to malfunction. This is extremely dangerous and is well known on many car complaint sites. Why has nothing been done? Thank you.
MY FUEL GAUGE OCCASIONALLY REGISTERS AS EMPTY EVEN AFTER I FILL THE GAS TANK. THIS TYPICAL HAPPENS IF I LET THE FUEL GO BELOW 1/4 TANK. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE FIRST 30,000 MILES AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THERE WAS NO RECALL OR SAFETY ALERT FOR THIS CONDITION. IT GRADUALLY GOES UP AS I DRIVE. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND MODEL YEAR.

A CODE P1682 -IGNITION SWITCH CIRCUIT WILL POP UP. I'VE HAD THE PROBLEM FOR A YEAR, THE VEHICLE WILL SEEM LIKE IT DOESN'T HAVE A LOT OF POWER AT TIMES. THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON, REDUCED ENGINE POWER AND TRACTION CONTROL OFF. THE BATTERY VOLTAGE DROPS BELOW 13 . I HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERY, ALTERNATOR, THROTTLE BODY, GAS PEDAL SENSORY. IT DOES ALL OF THAT WHILE DRIVING, AND STARTS TO STALL ON ME. THAT CODE POPPED UP ONCE LAST YEAR AND I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND THEY SAID IT WOULDN'T COME UP AND IT'S DOING IT A LOT MORE. I HAVE DID RESEARCH AND HAVE SEEN MANY ISSUES WITH A FUSE BLOCK AND IGNITION SWITCH.

WHEN TURNING ON THE CAR IT IMMEDIATELY GAVE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, BEGAN VIOLENTLY SHUDDERING, AND RAN "SERVICE STABILITRAK" "TRACTION CONTROL OFF" AND "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" WARNINGS. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO 2 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND THEY KEEP TELLING US NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. WE HAVE EVEN CALLED GMC SERVICE LINE DIRECTLY AND EXPLAINED THAT THIS OCCURS WHILE WE ARE DRIVING THE CAR AND THE VEHICLE WILL SOMETIMES COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. THIS TIME THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND INITIALLY TURNED ON. WE RESTARTED THE CAR AND IT TOOK TWO TRIES BEFORE IT APPEARED TO START "NORMALLY." THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON.

MY ACADIA HAS SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING MULTIPLE TIMES. TODAY, I WAS IN A PARKING LOT PICKING UP A PRESCRIPTION. THE CAR WAS IDLING WHILE I WAS WAITING IN THE PICK-UP LANE AND THEN SHUT OFF. THE DASH REMAINED ON AND GAVE THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS: TRACTION CONTROL OFF, ENGINE POWER REDUCED, SERVICE STABILITRACK. I TRIED TO RESTART THE ENGINE ONLY TO HAVE THE CAR SHUTTER VIOLENTLY WHILE IDLING. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AGAIN AND THEN RESTARTED FOR A SECOND TIME. THIS TIME IT RESTARTED AS NORMAL AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A DEALER 4 TIMES SINCE OCTOBER AS IT HAS SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING A TURN. THE DEALER SAYS THERE ARE NO CODES IN THE DIAGNOSTICS AND CANNOT FIND A PROBLEM. I'M TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THE CAR. I SAW A RECALL FROM 2014 ABOUT AN ELECTRICAL SHORT BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS ALREADY FIXED ON THIS VEHICLE SINCE I BOUGHT IT USED. I ALSO DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS EVEN RELATED TO THAT RECALL.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR BEGAN SHUTTERING AND THE WARNING SYSTEM WENT OFF STATING THE TRACTION CONTROL HAD GONE OFF. THEN IT SAID ENGINE POWER REDUCED, SERVICE ENGINE, AND SERVICE TRACTION. THE CAR BEGAN SHAKING AND IMMEDIATELY SLOWED DOWN. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE CAR. UPON RESTARTING THE CAR I RECEIVED A MESSAGE THAT SAID TRACTION CONTROL ON. BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO WHICH THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. AFTER DOING A GOOGLE SEARCH TODAY, I FOUND THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN GMC ACADIA AND I AM SHOCKED THAT IT HASN'T BE REPORTED/RECALLED. IN RETROSPECT, I HAVE NOTICED THAT SOMETIMES WHEN I ACCELERATE, THE CAR WILL FAIL TO SHIFT GEARS IN A TIMELY MANNER AND JERK FORWARD WHEN IT FINALLY DOES SO. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WITH ALL THREE OF MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR WHEN THIS HAPPEND!

THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES CONTINUED DESPITE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS CHECKING VARIOUS PROBLEMS. THE FUSE BLOCK WAS REPLACED AND FOR A MONTH THINGS WERE FINE, BUT THE CAR IS STILL EXPERIENCING CONSTANT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, DIFFICULTY STARTING, DOESN'T STOP RIGHT AWAY WHEN TURNED OFF, RANDOM STALLING, YOU NAME IT. IT FEELS LIKE A DEATH TRAP.
SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
Mileage: 111,000
THE MODULE FOR THE SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT NOTIFICATION SYSTEM, BACK UP CAMERA, TV'S/DVD'S QUITE WORKING AFTER IT WENT THROUGH THE CAR WASH. WHEN TAKEN TO THE MECHANIC IT WAS SAID IT MODULE WAS FILLED WITH WATER. ATTEMPTED TO HAVE THIS ADDRESS IN APRIL OF 2019 AND NOW OTHER THINGS ARE GETTING WORSE! SIDE MIRROR LIGHTS ALWAYS ON.
SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT MODULE FAILURE. SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT IS INTENDED TO SIGNAL THE DRIVER OF OBJECTS IN THE BLIND SPOT WHEN CHANGING LANES. THIS 2014 ACADIA HAS A MALFUNCTIONING MODULE, RESULTING IN THE ALERT LIGHT REMAINING ON IN THE SIDE VIEW MIRROR. THERE IS ALSO AN ERROR MESSAGE IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. GM REFUSES TO APPLY EXISTING N172097060 SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT TO THIS VEHICLE, DESPITE MEETING THE MAKE, MODEL, YEAR, AND SPECIFIC PROBLEM RELATED TO THE MODULE.
FIRST, 2 DAYS AFTER WE PURCHASED THE CAR, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THEN THE FRONT CAMERA NEEDED SERVICE AND THE SIDE WARNINGS STOPPED. THEN THE SEAT HEATERS QUIT. THE FOBS BOTH QUIT WORKING, WOULD. IT PROPERLY UNLOCK THE DOORS. WE GOT AN AIRBAG NEEDS SERVICE WARNING. A CHECK GAGES WARNING. A SERVICE TIRE MONITORING SYSTEM WARNING. FINALLY, THE ENGINE LOCKS UP AND WON'T START, TURN OVER, OR ANYTHING. SEVERAL HOURS LATER, THE CAR STARTS. THEN IT GOES THROUGH THE WHOLE CYCLE AGAIN OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS TIL IT DOESN'T START AGAIN AND LEAVES US STRANDED. AGAIN. THE FIRST TIME, THE MCDANIEL GMC SERVICE DEPARTMENT CHANGED OUT THE BATTERY AND BELIEVED THAT WOULD FIX IT. WE PAID $190 FOR THAT. IT DIDN'T WORK. IT WENT THROUGH THE SAME CYCLE AGAIN WITHIN A MONTH. NOW THEY EXPECT US TO PAY TO HAVE HE MODULE FIXED, EVEN THOUGH THEY KNEW THERE WAS A RECALL FOR IT WHEN HEY SOLD IT TO US.

THERE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE CONTROL MODULES FOR THE DRIVER SAFETY/ASSIST SYSTEMS AND GM SENT A LETTER INDICATING THAT THEY WOULD REPAIR VEHICLES THAT MET A CERTAIN MILEAGE AND AGE CRITERIA. MY VEHICLE DID NOT MEET THESE CRITERIA. THE FAULT DRAINED MY BATTERY AND I HAD TO HAVE IT REPLACED AND THE DEALER INDICATED IT COULD BE $5000 TO FIX ALL THE OTHER ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH THE FAULTY CONTROL MODULES. AS A RESULT, MY WIFE HAS NOW HAS NO BLIND SPOT MONITORING/INDICATOR, THE FORWARD/REAR CRASH MONITORING/ALERT SYSTEM DOESN'T FUNCTION AND ALL OF THE THE OTHER PROXIMITY/SAFETY SYSTEMS DON'T FUNCTION EITHER. IN ADDITION, OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES ARE NOW STARTING TO SURFACE AND THE GARAGE DOOR OPENER NO LONGER FUNCTIONS. I AM SCARED THAT THIS MAY LEAD TO A SERIOUS ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION, SHORT, OR FIRE THAT COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. AS A RESULT, I RECENTLY PURCHASED A NEW VEHICLE FOR HER BUT I AM NOW DRIVING THE IMPACTED VEHICLE.

THE SERVICE AIR BAG SOON LIGHT IS ON AND THE CAR ONLY HAS 74,000 MILES AND HAS NEVER BEEN IN A WRECK. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR EARLIER MODEL YEAR ACADIAS UP TO 2013 AND IT IS WIDELY REPORTED THAT THE 2014S HAVE THE SAME ISSUE; THAT THE CONNECTOR HAS TO BE RESOLDERED FOR THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. THIS IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE TO GMC AND THEY ARE CHARGING APPROXIMATELY $400 TO FIX A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE. NOW I'M GOING TO HAVE TO PAY $400 TO GET THIS FIXED BECAUSE IT IS NOT AN INCLUDED RECALL ON THE 2014S AND I DON'T WANT MY WIFE DRIVING A CAR WITHOUT AIRBAGS.

ON ONE, APPROXIMATELY 200-MILE TRIP LAST YEAR, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IN OUR ACADIA COMPLETELY WENT OUT (INCLUDING ALL GUAGES, TURN SIGNALS, ETC.) THREE SEPARATE TIMES. WE WERE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE ROADWAYS, AND THE VEHICLE COULD STILL BE DRIVEN. THE SYSTEM REBOOTED EACH TIME AFTER A FEW MINUTES. ULTIMATELY, MY WIFE ENDED UP STRANDED AS THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START DUE TO ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILURE AFTER SHE HAD PARKED IT DURING A SEPARATE TRIP. OUR GM DEALERSHIP INFORMED US THAT THE REAR OBJECT DETECTION MODULES HAD CORRODED, AND THAT "EVERYONE HAS THIS PROBLEM." THE CORROSION CAUSED A CASCADE FAILURE OR THE ENTIRE SYSTEM, WHICH IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD. GM REPLACES THESE MODULES WITH NON-CORRODING ONES NOW, AFTER WE PAID $992.52 TO HAVE THEM REPLACED. I CONTACTED AUTUMN AT GM CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND SHE SAID THAT THERE IS NOW SPECIAL COVERAGE FOR THIS PROBLEM THAT BEGAN ON 4/2/19. HOWEVER, OUR VEHICLE IS OVER THE 80,000-MILE WARRANTY FOR THIS PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONING FUNCTION FAILED TO WORK PROPERLY AND THERE WAS EXTREME HEAT DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWO DEALERS: (1) 1ST LIBERTY GMC IN PEORIA, AZ AND (2) DESERT SUN GMC IN ALAMO GORDO, NM. THE FIRST DEALER NOTICED A LEAK, REPLACED A LINE, RECHARGED THE SYSTEM, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED MONTHS LATER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE FIRST DEALER WHO REPEATED THE SAME SOLUTION, WHICH PROVIDED NO REMEDY AS THE HOT AIR CONTINUED TO EMIT FROM THE AIR CONDITIONER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE SECOND DEALER FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN IF THE MANUFACTURER WOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION TO THE DEALER TO REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS TO FOLLOW UP WITH A RESPONSE WITHIN 48 HRS AND THE CONTACT WAS WAITING FOR A SOLUTION. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
IN 2016, A GMC DEALER SOLD ME, AND ATTEMPTED TO INSTALL, AN UPDATE FOR MY "INFOTAINMENT" GPS SYSTEM ON MY 2014 ACADIA DENALI. THE RESULT WAS LOSS OF VEHICLE USAGE ON THREE SEPARATE SERVICE DATES TOTALING 15 DAYS. THE REASON FOR SEVERAL SERVICE DATES WAS CAUSED BY THE GPS SOFTWARE AND THE INABILITY TO NOT ONLY DOWNLOAD THE GPS UPDATE TO THE "INFOTAINMENT" SYSTEM, BUT IN THE PROCESS, IT CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE ENTIRE "INFOTAINMENT" SYSTEM; INCLUDING, NAVIGATION FEATURES, THE HANDS-FREE USE OF ONES' CELL PHONE, VOICE COMMANDS, AND RADIO/ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS, AS WELL. THE ELECTRONIC DAMAGE REQUIRED THE REPEATED REPLACEMENT (3) OF THE ENTIRE "INFOTAINMENT" SYSTEM WHEN GMC DETERMINED THAT THE GPS UPDATE SOFTWARE WAS THE PROBLEM. WHILE ONE WOULD EXPECT GMC TO IMMEDIATELY CORRECT THE PROBLEM, IT HAS NOW BEEN THREE YEARS SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED WITH A GPS SYSTEM THAT CANNOT BE UPDATED. TO DATE, GMC HAS BEEN UNABLE TO PROVIDE A GPS UPDATE; ONLY EMAILS APOLOGIZING FOR THE INCONVENIENCE WITH UNRELIABLE MOVING TARGET DATES STATING WHEN THE UPDATE WILL BE AVAILABLE. IT IS IRONIC THAT I MUST RESORT TO THE USE OF A DEPENDABLE, READILY UPDATED $300 PORTABLE GARMIN GPS FOR MY EXTENSIVE TRAVELS AROUND THE COUNTRY. FOR THOSE OF US THAT MUST TRAVEL, I SUGGEST A ALTERNATE MAKE/MODEL VEHICLE THAT HAS A MORE RESPONSIVE MANUFACTURER, AND SERVICEABLE VEHICLE ACCESSORY SYSTEMS.

SINCE THE DAY I DROVE MY ACADIA OFF THE LOT THERE HAS BEEN A "CLICK" THAT OCCURS WHICH SOUNDS LIKE IT IS COMING FROM THE ENGINE THAT CAN BE FELT UNDER THE GAS PEDAL WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ABOUT TO SHIFT INTO 2ND GEAR, BUT ONLY IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE AND NEVER AGAIN WHEN SWITCHING BETWEEN 1ST AND 2ND GEAR UNTIL IT HAS BEEN TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. THE NOISE IT MAKES SOUNDS LIKE A MARBLE ROLLING ON A WOODEN FLOOR FOR ABOUT 1-2 SECONDS AND THEN CLICK AND THEN THE GEAR SHIFTS. THE DEALER SAID THEY DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING BUT I DO AS WELL AS OTHER PASSENGERS DO EVERY DAY. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN TURNING THE VEHICLE AT A SLOW RATE OF SPEED AND THEN ACCELERATING, THE ENGINE SLAMS INTO GEAR WHEN BETWEEN 10-15 MPH BUT ONLY AFTER A TURN AND AN ATTEMPT AT ACCELERATION. ALSO, MY ACADIA IS NOT A VEHICLE UNDER THE "FAULTY GAS GAUGE" RECALL HOWEVER ONCE MY VEHICLE IS BELOW 1/4 TANK THE NEEDLE ON THE GAS GAUGE WILL JUMP FROM 1/8 TANK TO 1/16, BACK UP TO 1/8 OF A TANK ALL WHILE DRIVING ON FLAT ROADWAYS. CONCURRENTLY, THE RANGE FOR THE FUEL ON THE DIGITAL SCREEN GOES FROM 95 TO 58 TO 72 ALL WHILE DRIVING WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON AT A CONSISTENT SPEED. LASTLY, THE VEHICLE HAS THE DENALI GRILL WHICH LEAVES MINIMAL AIRFLOW FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. UP TO THREE HOURS AFTER TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF (IN A COOL GARAGE) YOU CAN STILL FEEL THE HEAT COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IF YOU PLACE YOUR HAND IN FRONT OF THE GRILL. COULD THIS BE A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD? ALL OF THESE ISSUES BEGAN WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE WITH 60 MILES ON IT AND CONTINUE NOW AT 15,500 MILES. I DRIVE FREQUENTLY AND CAN TELL YOU THAT I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN MY VEHICLE BUT AM UNSURE WHAT TO DO AS THE DEALER HAS TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. THE ONLY RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE IS THE SEATBELT ISSUE BUT I THINK THERE ARE SERIOUS ENGINE PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED BY GM. *TR
MY ACADIA HAS FORWARD COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM AND HAS NOT EVER WORKED TO PROVIDE ANY WARNING AT ANY SPEED OR UNDER ANY CONDITIONS.
