ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
I PURCHASED MY 2010 GMC TERRAIN IN MAY 2013. AFTER A FEW WEEKS OF HAVING THE TRUCK. I HEARD A RATTLING NOISE. I TOOK IT BACK TO WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND THEY SAID I WAS OUT OF OIL. FROM MAY - OCT. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE 4 OIL CHANGES WHICH MY MILEAGE WAS NOW 52,000. THE SERVICE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON BUT COULD HEAR A RATTLING SOUND. THEY RECENTLY DID A CONSUMPTION TEST ON THE TRUCK AND THEY SAY EVERYTHING LOOKS FINE. NOW WHEN I STOP AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, MY TRUCK SHAKES AS THOUGH IT IS GOING TO TURN OFF. IT DOES THIS RANDOMLY. OF COURSE THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE IT WHEN THEY TEST DROVE IT. MY LIGHT DOES NOT ALWAYS ILLUMINATE AND MY SPEAKER ON THE DRIVER SIDE WILL BE STATIC WHEN I START UP THE TRUCK. NEEDLESS TO SAY , HAVING THE TRUCK FOR ONLY A FEW MONTHS AND SEEING THIS MANY ISSUES IS A HUGE CONCERN, AFTER READING ALL THE COMPLAINTS I AM TRULY CONCERNED THIS IS NOT THE TRUCK THAT IS GOING TO LAST VERY LONG, EVEN THOUGH I PAID GOOD MONEY FOR IT. VERY DISAPPOINTING. I HAVE TALKED TO MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE ENGINE REPLACED. INSTEAD OF GOING THROUGH ALL THE REPAIRS THAT SEEMS LIKE THE IDEAL SOLUTION. ITS ODD WHEN YOU READ THE OTHER COMPLAINTS, IT SEEMS EVEN GMC DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO FIX THEIR OWN ISSUES OR DON'T KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THESE PROBLEMS. I READ THAT GMC TERRAINS HAVE HAD 131 BULLETINS WOW. *TR
