I PURCHASED THIS TERRAIN AS THE 99 GMC PICKUP THAT I PURCHASED FROM SHEEHAN HAD 3 TOTAL BRAKE FAILURES AND A POWER STEERING COOLER FAIL ALL DUE TO CORROSION. I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE 99 AFTER THE 3RD TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE. THIS IS WHEN I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN NOVEMBER 2011. SINCE THEN DUE TO CORROSION THEY REPLACED ALL THE WHEELS ON THE VEHICLE AND THE OTHER DAY I STARTED SMELLING GASOLINE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO SHEEHAN. THEY FOUND A FUEL LINE UNDER THE VEHICLE LEAKING AS IT HAD RUSTED THROUGH. I ASKED THE SERVICE PERSON WHAT THEY DID TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THEY REPLACE THE FUEL LINE WITH THE SAME TYPE THAT HAD JUST RUSTED THROUGH. I ASKED THEM WHY THEY DID NOT USE STAINLESS STEEL. I WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT DO THAT. I NOW DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT EVEN BEEN PAID OFF YET AND ONLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 7000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE BEGUN SHOPPING FOR A NON-GENERAL MOTORS VEHICLE AS I DO NOT FEEL SAVE DRIVING THIS ONE. *TR

STEERING
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC TERRAIN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, HE ACCELERATED TO PASS A VEHICLE ON THE LEFT WHEN THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY PULLED TO THE LEFT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE REGAINED CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND ATTEMPTED TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE ON THE RIGHT BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION AND THEY ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED WITH A HYDRAULIC STEERING, WHICH WAS DESIGNED TO PERFORM IN THE MANNER IN WHICH IT DID. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60.
