MY 2010 GMC ACADIA SLT ROLLS BACKWARD ON INCLINES EVEN THOUGH THE TRANSMISSION IS IN DRIVE. I HAVE DRIVEN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION VEHICLES FOR YEARS AND IN MY EXPERIENCE THEY ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO ROLL BACKWARD IN DRIVE. IF ANYONE IS BEHIND THE VEHICLE WHEN THIS OCCURS THEY COULD VERY WELL BE CRUSHED. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THIS IS NORMAL BEHAVIOR, BUT THIS IS NOT AND THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

WHEN I TRIED TO PARK MY 2011 ACADIA SLE, THE ACCELERATOR BECAME STUCK CAUSING THE FRONT OF MY CAR TO CRASH INTO A HEALTH CLUB WALL. WHEN I SAW PEOPLE RUNNING INSIDE THE HEALTH CLUB I THOUGHT I HAD ROLLED OVER SOMEONE. SO, I TRIED TO BACK UP AND WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE IT SHOT BACKWARDS WITH A ROLLING FORCE AND HIT AN IRON POST. TO KEEP THE WHEELS FROM CONTINUOUSLY ROLLING, I HAD TO SLAM THE GEAR INTO PARK AND TURN THE IGNITION OFF. I BELIEVE THIS ACCIDENT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FURTHER BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE IS INJURED OR KILLED.
