ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LIFTERS INSIDE THE MOTOR MALFUNCTIONED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO MAKE A TICKING AND RATTLING SOUND. OCCASIONALLY, A GRAY CLOUD OF SMOKE WOULD EMIT FROM THE EXHAUST PIPE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE NOISE IN THE VEHICLE SOUNDED AS IF THERE WAS NO OIL IN IT. THE FAILURE OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD NOT PERFORM ANY REPAIRS UNLESS THE VEHICLE WAS INOPERABLE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 5,020. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL
I CAN NOT REMEMBER THE THREE OTHER TIMES THE ELEC. STABILITY CONTROL, HAS WENT OUT. THIS TIME MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE CAR. NO ISSUES OF CRASH, BUT THIS IS NOW BECOMING A PROBLEM, I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK ALL TIMES TO BE FIXED AT THE DEALER. ALL TIME THEY SAY ITS FIXED. THIS TIME THE ENGINE STARTED HESITATING AND CHOKING OUT, MIS FIRING.. IM GLAD IT WAS AT LOW SPEEDS.. THIS IS A PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. *TT
