| 1997 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK | THESE PROBLEMS DID NOT OCCUR FROM AN ACCIDENT, BUT RATHER THE WORKMANSHIP OF THE VEHICLE. WE HAVE TRIED EVERY AVENUE TO GET GMC TO STAND BEHIND THEIR AUTOMOBILES AND PRODUCTS, BUT WERE TOLD IT WAS NOT THEIR PROBLEM. WE JUST WANT SOMEONE IN AUTHORITY TO HELP US WITH A CAR THAT IS A LEMON AND WAS A DANGER TO DRIVE BECAUSE OF ALL THE MECHANICAL DIFFICULTIES. INCLUDING: STEERING WHEEL SENSOR WENT OUT ON A CURVE AT 45MPH, BRAKES WENT OUT AFTER ONLY 6 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP, 2 ALTENATORS AND A BATTERY THAT WOULD HAVE LEFT MY WIFE AND TWO KIDS STRANDED, AIR CONDITIONER QUIT FUNCTIONING AT 20,000 MILES, TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AT 45,000 MILES, O2 SENSORS WENT OUT AFTER THE TRANSMISSION, ALTENATOR WENT OUT AGAIN FOR THIRD TIME, THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE WARRANTY WORK, BUT SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT WARRANTY SINCE IT FIXED UNDER WARRANTY THE FIRST AND SECOND TIME. AS YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE A VALID COMPLAINT. WHEN WE WENT TO TRY AND TRADE THE CAR OFF THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT A 2ND TIME AND WE COULD NOT TRADE THE CAR, EVEN THOUGH THE DEALERSHIP IN OKLAHOMA CITY HAD A BUYER. THEY WERE AFRAID TO BUY A CAR WITH SO MANY PROBLEMS, SO WE ARE LEFT WITH A CAR THAT DOES'NT RUN 90 % OF THE TIME AND NO WAY OF GETTING RID OF IT. WE CAN'T EVEN GET THE LOAN AMOUNT OUT OF THE AUTO. WE REALLY NEED SOME HELP FIGURING OUT WHAT TO DO. YOUR TIME IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU. KEN SUTTON. *AK |
