This Problem Across All Years
I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL GMC DEALERSHIP LOCATED IN ITHACA, (MAQUIRE CHEVY-CADILLAC) NEAR ITHACA MALL. THE VEHICLE ENGINE SOUND LIKE IF SOMEONE WAS HITTING THE ENGINE WITH A HARD OBJECT, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD COME ON. THE SERVICE TECH TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM,LATER THAT NIGHT I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE AND DROVE LESS THAN A MILE FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND THE SAME NOISE CAME BACK ON. DROVE BACK AND COMPLAIN OF THE PROBLEM THAT BEING FIX AND WAS GIVEN A RENTAL CAR. THE NEXT DAY I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE REP. THAT A LIFTER HAD WENT ON THE ENGINE AND IT WOULD COST APPROX. 1,600.00 TO FIX THAT PROBLEM BUT WHEN NOT GUARANTEE ANY OTHER PROBLEMS. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A OUTSIDE MECHANIC WHO ADVISED ME THAT IT WOULD BE CHEAPER TO PUT A NEW ENGINE IN IT. THE SERVICE MANAGER LOOKED UP HIS SCREEN AND ADVISED ME THAT THE VEHICLE HAD NO RECALLS ON IT. I PAID $4,774.84 FOR A NEW ENGINE, BUT GMC DID NOT STAND BY THEIR PRODUCT. ALL I WANT FOR LABOR IS $600.00 AND 203.00 FOR THE RENTAL CAR. I HAVE RECEIPTS TO SHOW WHAT WAS PAID AND THE BREAK OF WHAT NEEDED TO DONE TO ENGINE. I CONTACTED GMC 1-800 NUMBER WHICH WAS A JOKE, THEY LISTEN BUT REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING. I NEEDED THE VEHICLE TO BE FIX, WHICH WAS AN EMERGENCY. PLEASE HELP. *TR

THE TRANSMISSION WAS LEAKING AND RECALLED AND THAT WAS FIXED BY GM. THE BRAKE LIGHTS SOMETIMES OVER HEAT AND I HAD TO REPLACE THE SADDLES ON THEM. I DO NOT EVEN KNOW THEY GO OUT BUT I HAVE PEOPLE HONKING AT ME THAT I HAVE NO LIGHTS IN THE REAR. NOW WITH MY WARRANTY OUT AND HAVE 86.000 MILES ON IT THE FUEL PUMP IS OUT ON THE VEHICLE AT A 700 DOLLAR COST. THE DOOR KNOB FELL OFF, I HAVE OIL PRESSURE ISSUES ALL OF THE TIME. LAST NOVEMBER THE DRIVE SHAFT FELL OFF AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND HAD TO PICK IT UP OFF OF THE INTERSTATE WHICH SOMEONE COULD HAVE GOTTEN HURT. BRAKE ISSUES. WHEN YOU SPEND 48,000 DOLLARS ON A VEHICLE IT MAKES YOU SAD THAT GM DOES NOTHING TO HELP THEIR CUSTOMERS. MAYBE THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD NOT HELP THEM ANYMORE. TODAY THEY WANTED ME TO TAKE IT TO GM AND PAY 200 DOLLARS FOR A DIAGNOSIS. JUST MORE MONEY IN THEIR POCKET. I WANT TO ANOTHER SHOP FOR ADVISE. THIS CAR IS DEFINITELY A DISAPPOINTMENT ND LEMON. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY 70 MPH, WHEN THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES LOCKED UP, THE YUKON STARTED VIOLENTLY JERKING AROUND, THE TRANSMISSION WAS SHIFTING VERY HARD,THEN THE CAR SHUT OFF CAUSING NO STEERING. ALL OF THIS HAPPENED IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. IT WAS AN HOUR LATER BEFORE THE CAR WOULD RESTART AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS STILL NOT WORKING RIGHT, SHIFTING GEARS EXTREMELY HARD. *TR
