| 2011 | STEERING | POWER STEERING MAKES BINDING NOISE WHEN TURNING STEERING WHEEL. DEALER HAS REPLACED POWER STEERING PUMP, GREASED STRUT SHAFTS, REPLACED POWER STEERING HOSES, REPLACED STEERING GEAR AND BLED LINES. THIS HAS INVOLVED THREE TRIPS TO THE DEALER AND LEAVING THE VEHICLE. DEALER HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL WITH A LOANER CAR. BUT GM CONTINUES TO IGNORE PROBLEM AND SANDBAGS, HOPING I'LL GIVE UP. I'M AFRAID STEERING COULD FAIL AT SPEED AND CAUSE SERIOUS ACCIDENT, MY WIFE IS HESITANT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. I'M CONSIDERING ENACTING THE FLORIDA LEMON LAW, HOWEVER WE LIKE THE CAR WOULD MAKE THIS THE LAST RECOURSE IF NHTSA CAN NOT HELP. *JS |
| 2013 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | WHILE DECELERATING FROM ABOUT 35 OR 40 MPH WHEN YOU APPLY THE BRAKES THEN COME TO COMPLETE STOP THE VEHICLE ON THE REAR END WILL START TO LOUDLY THUMP, IT STARTS OUT SLOWLY THUMPING AND BEGINS TO SPEED UP AND WHEN YOU START TO RELEASE THE BRAKE IT BEGINS TO SLOW DOWN AND STOP ONCE ONE BEGINS TO ACCELERATE. WE HAVE HAD THE ISSUE ONGOING FOR ABOUT 3 MONTHS NOW, IT STARTED ABOUT 2 OR 3 WEEKS AFTER WE GOT THE VEHICLE AND IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP ABOUT 6 TIMES. THE VEHICLE HAD ABOUT 2200 MILES ON IT AND THE DEALER SAID IT WAS A 'LIKE NEW' LOANER VEHICLE. THE MECHANICS SAID THEY THOUGHT IT WAS A EXHAUST, SOMETHING WITH THE REAR BRAKES, OR MAYBE A PANEL IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE, THEY HAVE TIGHTENED, AND REPLACED ALMOST THE ENTIRE REAR OF THE VEHICLE AND THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM AND I AM AFRAID IT MIGHT BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD. THE DEALER HAS CALLED GMC AND THE DEALER SAID GMC WILL NOT DO ANYTHING FOR US. *JB |
