2014 GMC Acadia complaints

My wife was driving at highway speeds (70MPH) on the interstate in Chicago when without warning her cluster lights appeared and her vehicle lost propulsion (stalled, Stall, died). She had no warning and the area had no shoulder for her to pull off into so she had to come to a complete stop in the right lane of the highway. People are doing speeds well above 70MPH, I would hate to think of what could have happened if a person or line of vehicles could not change lanes in time; very serious injuries and possibly death for all invovled. Fortunatly, she had the sense to put the car in park (highway lane) and completed a key cycle thus restarting the vehicle and then obviously accelerating quickly to get out of harms way. As people are swirving out of her lane and honking at her. I put our VIN into the NHTSA site and see the vehicle has no outstanding recalls. Then i search just the model year and come across a recall (14V-614, GM recall number 14515) that appears to be the same issue we may have had. In the vehicle information section of the 573 it lists: Descriptive Information : 2014 GMC Acadia Production Dates : JUN 27, 2013 - SEP 26, 2013 Plugging my VIN into a VIN decoder, i see that my vehicle was built July 26, 2013; this falls within the suspect time of this recall. Why have I not been notified of this recall? Why is the NHTSA tool not show my vehicle as being affected? This could have been a very a tragic ending. I hope you (NHTSA) reach out directly to GM to figure out

Tail lights/brakes light/blinkers The light kit cover seals break allowing water into the light kit. Water collects and shorts out the bulbs causing a dangerous hazard when rear lights fail to work in the proper manner. I have called to several places and am being told, yes, GMC has a defect on their rear tail lights. Seals were not done very well and supply cannot keep up with demand. The lights are over 300 each which is absolutely ridiculous. A part that is necessary to keep one safe and be able to signal to other drivers should not be this expensive when the manufacturer did not build a good product.

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Acadia. The contact stated that while her son was driving 40 mph, the vehicle struck a curb and all the air bags deployed. The contact's son did not sustain any injuries. A police report was not filed. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 115,000.

While traveling approximately 75mph the Service Traction Control light came on followed closely by the Low Oil Pressure Stop Engine Immediately light. We attempted to travel to a more safe area along the interstate. Within seconds the engine immediately shut off causing the loss of power steering and power brakes. The steering wheel locked in place causing the total loss of steering control. We were able to bring the vehicle to a safe stop, I would attribute this success to my being a Defensive Driver Instructor and Transportation Safety Professional. The risk associated with the issues we were faced with could have easily ended in tragedy especially at this speed (75 mph, 80 mph zone) The diagnosis of the vehicle was inconclusive due to the number of codes that were shown. The vehicle was no longer functional and had to be replaced. No documentation, other than the bill for towing is available. Diagnosis was done at no charge.

Air Bag Service code shows up. It can be removed briefly by moving the seat back and forth. I did some research and this is similar to the recalls for older years previously issued with the wiring harness causing the air bags to malfunction. This is extremely dangerous and is well known on many car complaint sites. Why has nothing been done? Thank you.

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Acadia. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to shift into Park. The contact stated that the key ceased in the ignition and would not allow him to shut-off the vehicle. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to a local dealer nor independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was relating the failure to NHTSA campaign number: 14V092000 (Power train). The manufacturer had been informed of the failure and informed the contact that the Vin was not under recall. The failure mileage was approximately 106,000.

MY FUEL GAUGE OCCASIONALLY REGISTERS AS EMPTY EVEN AFTER I FILL THE GAS TANK. THIS TYPICAL HAPPENS IF I LET THE FUEL GO BELOW 1/4 TANK. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE FIRST 30,000 MILES AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THERE WAS NO RECALL OR SAFETY ALERT FOR THIS CONDITION. IT GRADUALLY GOES UP AS I DRIVE. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND MODEL YEAR.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED MY AIRBAG LIGHT GOING ON FOR THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. DUE TO IT BEING OUT OF WARRANTY, I TOOK IT TO MY PERSONAL MECHANIC TO GET IT REPAIRED. IT TURNED OUT TO BE A HARNESS UNDER THE DRIVER SEAT. LESS THAN A YEAR LATER, IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND THIS TIME IT WAS THE HARNESS LOCATED UNDER THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE AND THE LIGHT HAS INTERMITTENTLY APPEARED AGAIN THE PAST 3 MONTHS

A CODE P1682 -IGNITION SWITCH CIRCUIT WILL POP UP. I'VE HAD THE PROBLEM FOR A YEAR, THE VEHICLE WILL SEEM LIKE IT DOESN'T HAVE A LOT OF POWER AT TIMES. THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON, REDUCED ENGINE POWER AND TRACTION CONTROL OFF. THE BATTERY VOLTAGE DROPS BELOW 13 . I HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERY, ALTERNATOR, THROTTLE BODY, GAS PEDAL SENSORY. IT DOES ALL OF THAT WHILE DRIVING, AND STARTS TO STALL ON ME. THAT CODE POPPED UP ONCE LAST YEAR AND I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND THEY SAID IT WOULDN'T COME UP AND IT'S DOING IT A LOT MORE. I HAVE DID RESEARCH AND HAVE SEEN MANY ISSUES WITH A FUSE BLOCK AND IGNITION SWITCH.

WHEN TURNING ON THE CAR IT IMMEDIATELY GAVE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, BEGAN VIOLENTLY SHUDDERING, AND RAN "SERVICE STABILITRAK" "TRACTION CONTROL OFF" AND "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" WARNINGS. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO 2 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND THEY KEEP TELLING US NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. WE HAVE EVEN CALLED GMC SERVICE LINE DIRECTLY AND EXPLAINED THAT THIS OCCURS WHILE WE ARE DRIVING THE CAR AND THE VEHICLE WILL SOMETIMES COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. THIS TIME THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND INITIALLY TURNED ON. WE RESTARTED THE CAR AND IT TOOK TWO TRIES BEFORE IT APPEARED TO START "NORMALLY." THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON.

MY ACADIA HAS SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING MULTIPLE TIMES. TODAY, I WAS IN A PARKING LOT PICKING UP A PRESCRIPTION. THE CAR WAS IDLING WHILE I WAS WAITING IN THE PICK-UP LANE AND THEN SHUT OFF. THE DASH REMAINED ON AND GAVE THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS: TRACTION CONTROL OFF, ENGINE POWER REDUCED, SERVICE STABILITRACK. I TRIED TO RESTART THE ENGINE ONLY TO HAVE THE CAR SHUTTER VIOLENTLY WHILE IDLING. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AGAIN AND THEN RESTARTED FOR A SECOND TIME. THIS TIME IT RESTARTED AS NORMAL AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A DEALER 4 TIMES SINCE OCTOBER AS IT HAS SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING A TURN. THE DEALER SAYS THERE ARE NO CODES IN THE DIAGNOSTICS AND CANNOT FIND A PROBLEM. I'M TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THE CAR. I SAW A RECALL FROM 2014 ABOUT AN ELECTRICAL SHORT BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS ALREADY FIXED ON THIS VEHICLE SINCE I BOUGHT IT USED. I ALSO DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS EVEN RELATED TO THAT RECALL.

SERVICE SIDE BLIND DETECTION STARTED GOING OFF THEN THE SIDE BLIND DETECTION STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. NOW THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY AND WAS TOLD THE SIDE BLIND DETECTION MONITORS CAN CAUSE THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO MALFUNCTION.

TRACTION CONTROL SENSOR TURNS ON-SERVICE STABILITRAK-ENGINE LOSES POWER-CAR DIES WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. TURN THE CAR OFF WAIT FOR AWHILE AND SOMETIMES IT WILL TURN OVER AND EVERYTHING IS FINE. THE ISSUE IS SLOWLY HAPPENING MORE OFTEN AND TAKING LONGER TO START BACK UP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO JIM CURLEY BUICK GMC OF KEYPORT (400 NJ-35, KEYPORT, NJ 07735) TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC TEST PERFORMED. THE TECHNICIAN RETRIEVED FAILURE CODES: P0018 AND P0021 SHOWING THAT THE TIMING CHAIN AND CAMSHAFT ACTUATOR WERE NO LONGER PERFORMING PROPERLY. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT ALSO WANTED TO STATE THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SAME DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE ENGINE LIGHT BEING ILLUMINATED HOWEVER, THE DEALER CLEARED THE ENGINE CODES UNDER THE VEHICLE WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,547.

CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. ALL ELECTRICAL WENT OUT. DOORS ALL LOCKED WHILE INSIDE, KEY STUCK IN IGNITION. STARTED WITH SIDE DETECTION WARNING AND WITHIN A FEW DAYS CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING! HUGE SAFETY ISSUE! WILL NOT RESTART AND STILL CAN'T GET KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED BUT NO POWER. COMPLETELY DEAD. THERE IS A KNOWN RECALL ON 2014 GMC ACADIAS FOR ELECTRONIC MODULE FAILURE BUT NOT OUR SPECIFIC VEHICLE THOUGH THIS SEEMS TO BE THE EXACT CAUSE OF OUR PROBLEMS. GMC SAID THEY COULD NOT HELP?!

THE VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN WITHOUT WARNING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. FROM 5MPH-70MPH. THIS HAPPENS ERRATICALLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. IT RESULTS IN AN IMMEDIATE LOSS OFF ALL POWER.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR BEGAN SHUTTERING AND THE WARNING SYSTEM WENT OFF STATING THE TRACTION CONTROL HAD GONE OFF. THEN IT SAID ENGINE POWER REDUCED, SERVICE ENGINE, AND SERVICE TRACTION. THE CAR BEGAN SHAKING AND IMMEDIATELY SLOWED DOWN. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE CAR. UPON RESTARTING THE CAR I RECEIVED A MESSAGE THAT SAID TRACTION CONTROL ON. BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO WHICH THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. AFTER DOING A GOOGLE SEARCH TODAY, I FOUND THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN GMC ACADIA AND I AM SHOCKED THAT IT HASN'T BE REPORTED/RECALLED. IN RETROSPECT, I HAVE NOTICED THAT SOMETIMES WHEN I ACCELERATE, THE CAR WILL FAIL TO SHIFT GEARS IN A TIMELY MANNER AND JERK FORWARD WHEN IT FINALLY DOES SO. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WITH ALL THREE OF MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR WHEN THIS HAPPEND!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE SAW THE AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT ILLUMINATE IN HER VEHICLE. THE CONTACT RECIEVED AN EMAIL FOR RECALLS ALERTING HER FOR THE TAKATA AIR BAGS HOWEVER THE VIN TOOL SHOWED NO RECALLS. THE DEALER BRYNER CHEVROLET, INC. 1750 THE FAIRWAY, JENKINTOWN, PA 19046 (215) 886-3140 DID NOT SEE THE AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT ILLUMINATE AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE DID NOT KNOW IF THE DEALER DID ANYMORE DIAGNOSTIC WORK TO CHECK THE ISSUE. THE ISSUE RECURRED AGAIN RECENTLY WITH THE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATING. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS. THE VEHICLE WAS UNREPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

SERVICE AIRBAG NOTIFICATION REMAINS ON DUE TO UNREPAIRED SENSOR. I PAID THE DEALER ONCE TO MAKE THE REPAIR AND THE SERVICE NOTIFICATION CAME BACK ON A YEAR LATER, BUT THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME FOR THE REPAIR AGAIN. I HAVE NOT BEEN IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT SO I'M NOT SURE IF THE AIRBAGS WILL WORK. HOWEVER, THIS HAS BEEN A CONCERN. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALER AND THIS PROBLEM BEGAN WITHIN A FEW YEARS. HOWEVER, THEY REFUSE TO HELP ME WITHOUT CHARGING ME HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS.

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT IS ON. THE LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME.

TIMING CHAIN/BELT. SUV IS MAKING A LOUD RATTLE WHEN TURNING VEHICLE ON. I GOT THIS ISSUE "FIXED" LAST YEA RIGHT AT 79,000 MILES. WARRANTY PAID FOR IT. 20,000 MILES LATE I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AGAIN, RATTLE NOISE, ENGINE LIGHT ON, AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON. IT WORRIES THAT THIS WILL BE A MAJOR IF IT GIVES OUT WHILE I AM DRIVING WITH MY KIDS.

WHILE DRIVING COMING TO OUR DESTINATION STOP, AT BOUT 1000FT LEFT, MY 2014 ACADIA JUST STARTED SHAKING, AND MISFIRING AND LOSING POWER. ON THE STEERING COLUMN, THE NOTIFICATION STATES, TRACTION SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON, AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. WE THEN CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND PUT IN PARK, THEN STARTED DRIVING AGAIN AND WENT OFF AFTER 2-3 MINUTES. THEN POWERED OFF AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS, AND OTHERS OFF.

2014 GMC ACADIA WENT ABRUPTLY INTO WHAT THEY CALL LIMP MODE. THE ENGINE LOST POWER, WITH A MASSIVE SHUTTER THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE, NUMEROUS WARNING LIGHTS ON DASH, SAYING REDUCED POWER, LOW VOLTAGE, TRACTION CONTROL/STABILITY CONTROL AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I HAVE DONE SOME ONLINE RESEARCH AND SEEMS TO BE A BIG ISSUE FOR THE ACADIA! A RECALL TO GENERAL MOTORS IS IN ORDER SO ALL THESE SAFETY ISSUES GET ADDRESSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THERE ARE STORIES THAT THE DEALERS HAVE FIXED THEM BUT A WEEK OR TWO LATER THE ISSUES RETURNED. PLEASE HELP US

ENGINE REDUCED POWER. VEHICLE WILL NO LONGER START. I WAS DRIVING AND LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING. I PULLED OVER EVEN THOUGH POWER STEERING WAS NOT WORKING.HAD CAR TOWED TO CONLEY AUTOMOTIVE, WIMBERLEY, TX. DIAGNOSIS FROM CONLEY SAID FAULTY FUSE BOX. THEY SAID IT WAS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN PROBLEM. I INPUT MY VIN# ON NHTSA AND FOIND RECALL ON ECM, ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE. WHEN I SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE DEPT AT CHUCK NASH CHEVY DEALERSHIP , THEY SAID NO RECALLS WERE NOTED ON MY VEHICLE. I AM EXTREMELY UPSET THAT THIS IN FACT IS THE ISSUE WITH MY CAR. HOW DO I ADD MY VEHICLE TO THE SAFETY RECALL?

THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES CONTINUED DESPITE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS CHECKING VARIOUS PROBLEMS. THE FUSE BLOCK WAS REPLACED AND FOR A MONTH THINGS WERE FINE, BUT THE CAR IS STILL EXPERIENCING CONSTANT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, DIFFICULTY STARTING, DOESN'T STOP RIGHT AWAY WHEN TURNED OFF, RANDOM STALLING, YOU NAME IT. IT FEELS LIKE A DEATH TRAP.

WE HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO A GMC DEALERSHIP AND THEY CANNOT HELP US. THEY REPAIRED SEVERAL RANDOM PARTS. MINE FIXED THE PROBLEM. THE CAR SEEMS TO STALL IN BETWEEN GEARS. RANDOMLY DRIVING SOWN THE ROAD AND THE CAR WILL STALL AND THEN CATCH. SOMETIMES IT IS TERRIFYING. AND NOW WE ARE EXPERIENCING HOT AIR FLOW IN THE CABIN AND THE BACK AIR WON'T STAY ON CONSISTENTLY. IT SHUTS OFF AND THEN ON. IT'S INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING.

FUEL GAUGE READS INACCURATELY AND SYSTEM REGISTERS FUEL TANK EMPTY AT AROUND 1/4 OF A TANK.

SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM MALFUNCTION

THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT JUST CAME ON THIS GMC HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND CLEAN NO DAMAGE AT ALL TO THE CAR IT JUST CAME ON , I GOOGLED IT AND HAVE SEEN COMPLAINTS APON COMPLAINTS ABOUT IT BUT NOTHING DONE I PUT MY CHILDREN AND GIRLFRIEND AND MYSELF IN THIS CAR AND IT MAKES ME SICK TO MY STOMACH NOW TO KNOW THE AIRBAG OR SOMETHING IS WRONG

"SERVICE AIR BAG" LIGHT KEPT COMING ON AND STAYING ON. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP WE PURCHASED FROM AND THEY TOLD US THE PROBLEM WAS UNDER THE SEAT AND HE RECONNECTED THE WIRES AND TOLD US IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN THAT THEY WOULD REPLACE IT. IT HAPPENED OVER AND OVER. IF YOU MOVE THE SEAT, IT WOULD TURN ON OR OFF. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT REPLACED BUT INSTEAD THEY TOLD US THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM THAT IT WAS IN THE DOOR. WE PAID THE $450.00 AND 7 DAYS LATER THE "SERVICE AIR BAG" CAME ON AGAIN. WE ARE TAKING IT BACK TOMORROW. THIS ISSUE, TO ME, IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE. IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURS, AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT WORK BECAUSE OF THIS NOT BEING FIXED CORRECTLY.... COULD CAUSE A DEATH. THIS BEGAN IN LATE 2019. IT COMES ON AT START UP, OR WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT COMES ON ANYTIME AND HAS STAYED ON AND UNABLE TO CLEAR IT UNTIL WE FIGURED OUT TO MOVE SEAT AND IT TURNS ITSELF OFF, SOMETIMES.

THE MODULE FOR THE SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT NOTIFICATION SYSTEM, BACK UP CAMERA, TV'S/DVD'S QUITE WORKING AFTER IT WENT THROUGH THE CAR WASH. WHEN TAKEN TO THE MECHANIC IT WAS SAID IT MODULE WAS FILLED WITH WATER. ATTEMPTED TO HAVE THIS ADDRESS IN APRIL OF 2019 AND NOW OTHER THINGS ARE GETTING WORSE! SIDE MIRROR LIGHTS ALWAYS ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 35-40 MPH, THE AIR BAGS WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PHIL MOORE BUICK GMC (5728, I-55, JACKSON, MS 39211, (601) 376-9934) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE WIRING UNDERNEATH THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT WAS LOOSENED AND NEEDED TO BE ADJUSTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000.

45,000 MILES. 2014 ACADIA SLT2 AWD. POWER STEERING FAILURE. FLUID DRIVEN POWER STEERING IS FAILING, LOUD WHINE NOISE FROM HYDRAULIC FLUID PUMP. FLUID IS FULL. STEERING IS VERY HARD TO TURN, NO POWER ASSIST ESPECIALLY AT SLOWER SPEEDS OR AT A STOP. SLIGHTLY BETTER IF RAISING ENGINE SPEED ABOVE 2500 RPMS

SO WHEN I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR TWO MONTHS NOW AND THIS MORNING WHEN I LEFT FOR WORK THE "SERVICE AIRBAG" LIGHT AND WARNING DISPLAY CAME IN Y. I HAVE ATTEMPTED EVERYTHING TO HAVE IT GO OFF THAT WAS RECOMMENDED BY OTHER ACADIA OWNERS. NOTHING HAD WORKED ...I HAVE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE EXACT SAME THING AND FEEL THAT BECAUSE TO BE ADDRESSED BY GM. I DO NOT THINK THAT I ADD A SINGLE MOTHER AND GRANDMOTHER SHOULD BE OUT 590 TO 600 DOLLARS FOR SOMETHING THAT IS OBVIOUSLY A MALFUNCTION THAT GM CANNOT GET RIGHT. PERIOD IS IN THE PRIOR VEHICLES. *TR

AFTER START UP (WHILE DRIVING OR WITH VEHICLE AT REST) SERVICE AIRBAG NOTIFICATION POPS UP AND REMAINS ON DASH CENTER NOTIFICATION AREA ALONG WITH AIRBAG SYSTEM LIGHT ON DASH. DEALER WANTS OVER $1,000 TO REPAIR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER RECALL OR WARRANTY SPECIAL COVERAGE. THIS TYPE OF VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE SHOULDN'T BE LIMITED BY A 3 YEAR/36,000 MILE WARRANTY. OWNERS MANUAL STATES THAT AIR BAG MAY NOT DEPLOY. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER CLAIMS THAT THE SYSTEM FAULT WILL NOT PREVENT AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, BUT I WOULDN'T TRUST THAT GIRL ON THE PHONE TO BE ABLE TO CHANGE HER OWN WIPER BLADES, LET ALONE EXPLAIN THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. GMC NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM THAT PEOPLE ARE HAVING AT ALARMING RATES WITH THEIR 2014 GMC ACADIAS. THIS IS NOT LIMITED ONLY TO THE 2013 AND OLDER GMC ACADIAS. *TR

120,000 MILES WHILE FRONT AXLE IS OUT AND TRANNY JERKS A LOT.

SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT MODULE FAILURE. SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT IS INTENDED TO SIGNAL THE DRIVER OF OBJECTS IN THE BLIND SPOT WHEN CHANGING LANES. THIS 2014 ACADIA HAS A MALFUNCTIONING MODULE, RESULTING IN THE ALERT LIGHT REMAINING ON IN THE SIDE VIEW MIRROR. THERE IS ALSO AN ERROR MESSAGE IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. GM REFUSES TO APPLY EXISTING N172097060 SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT TO THIS VEHICLE, DESPITE MEETING THE MAKE, MODEL, YEAR, AND SPECIFIC PROBLEM RELATED TO THE MODULE.

THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC ACADIA. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH AND ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE'S SPEED DECREASED AFTER THE SERVICE STABILITRAK AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. VEHICLE STARTED JERKING AND WOULD ACCELERATE. CONTACT CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH THE SPEED DECREASING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. I CAME TO A STOPPING POINT AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTART IT THEN THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND SERVICE STABILITRAK WARNING WENT AWAY. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN TO DEALER FOR DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. IT SEEM TO BE DOING IT MORE OFTEN NOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 TO 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MILLERS GMC LOCATED AT 920 US-1, WOODBRIDGE TOWNSHIP, NJ 08830, (732) 596-7752, ON THREE OCCASIONS AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS DESIGNED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 5,000. *BF CONSUMER HAS TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP MORE THAN 8 TIMES.*JB

FIRST, 2 DAYS AFTER WE PURCHASED THE CAR, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THEN THE FRONT CAMERA NEEDED SERVICE AND THE SIDE WARNINGS STOPPED. THEN THE SEAT HEATERS QUIT. THE FOBS BOTH QUIT WORKING, WOULD. IT PROPERLY UNLOCK THE DOORS. WE GOT AN AIRBAG NEEDS SERVICE WARNING. A CHECK GAGES WARNING. A SERVICE TIRE MONITORING SYSTEM WARNING. FINALLY, THE ENGINE LOCKS UP AND WON'T START, TURN OVER, OR ANYTHING. SEVERAL HOURS LATER, THE CAR STARTS. THEN IT GOES THROUGH THE WHOLE CYCLE AGAIN OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS TIL IT DOESN'T START AGAIN AND LEAVES US STRANDED. AGAIN. THE FIRST TIME, THE MCDANIEL GMC SERVICE DEPARTMENT CHANGED OUT THE BATTERY AND BELIEVED THAT WOULD FIX IT. WE PAID $190 FOR THAT. IT DIDN'T WORK. IT WENT THROUGH THE SAME CYCLE AGAIN WITHIN A MONTH. NOW THEY EXPECT US TO PAY TO HAVE HE MODULE FIXED, EVEN THOUGH THEY KNEW THERE WAS A RECALL FOR IT WHEN HEY SOLD IT TO US.

WHILE DRIVING, BOTH A SERVICE AIR BAG MESSAGE AND THE AIRBAG READINESS LIGHT ARE PERIODICALLY DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND DO NOT REAPPEAR WHEN THE ENGINE IS TURNED OFF AND BACK ON. AFTER A FULL DIAGNOSTICS CHECK COMPLETED AT THE DEALERSHIP, THE TECHNICIAN INDICATED THAT THE WARNING MESSAGES ARE DUE TO FAULTY CONNECTIONS IN THE WIRING HARNESS THAT NEED TO BE RE-SOLDERED TO ENSURE A PROPER CONNECTION.

MY SUV THAT I LIKE VERY MUCH RECENTLY STARTED HAVING ISSUES WHILE TURNING. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH GMC ACADIA MODELS. THIS COULD EASILY CAUSE A WRECK AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING. SINCE THERE ARE ALOT OF REPORTS FOR THIS ISSUE I THOUGHT THAT THERE WOULD BE A RECALL , UNFORTUNATELY WHEN I SEARCHED MY VIN NO RECALL WAS FOUND. THERE ARE ALOT OFF ISSUES WITH THIS MODEL AND PROBLEM THEREFORE IT SHOULD BE COVERED BY GMC.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 65 MPH, ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, THEN REDUCED ENGINE POWER ALERT. THE CAR WENT DOWN TO 8 MPH AND HARD TO STEER. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO PULL OFF ON THE SIDE WITHOUT GETTING HIT. TURNED OFF THE CAR (45 MINS) AS I WAS WAITING FOR MY SPOUSE AND WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON, IT STARTED WITHOUT AN ISSUE. THE ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON A FEW TIMES AND THEN IT TURNS OFF ON ITS OWN. THE CAR HAS SHUT DOWN A FEW TIMES WHEN DRIVING SLOWLY - TURNING FROM A STOP OR IN DRIVE-THRU. TOOK IT TO THE AUTO REPAIR SHOP AND MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE ISSUE AND FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I ALSO GET THE AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT TURN ON AND OFF RANDOMLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. A LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

THERE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE CONTROL MODULES FOR THE DRIVER SAFETY/ASSIST SYSTEMS AND GM SENT A LETTER INDICATING THAT THEY WOULD REPAIR VEHICLES THAT MET A CERTAIN MILEAGE AND AGE CRITERIA. MY VEHICLE DID NOT MEET THESE CRITERIA. THE FAULT DRAINED MY BATTERY AND I HAD TO HAVE IT REPLACED AND THE DEALER INDICATED IT COULD BE $5000 TO FIX ALL THE OTHER ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH THE FAULTY CONTROL MODULES. AS A RESULT, MY WIFE HAS NOW HAS NO BLIND SPOT MONITORING/INDICATOR, THE FORWARD/REAR CRASH MONITORING/ALERT SYSTEM DOESN'T FUNCTION AND ALL OF THE THE OTHER PROXIMITY/SAFETY SYSTEMS DON'T FUNCTION EITHER. IN ADDITION, OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES ARE NOW STARTING TO SURFACE AND THE GARAGE DOOR OPENER NO LONGER FUNCTIONS. I AM SCARED THAT THIS MAY LEAD TO A SERIOUS ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION, SHORT, OR FIRE THAT COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. AS A RESULT, I RECENTLY PURCHASED A NEW VEHICLE FOR HER BUT I AM NOW DRIVING THE IMPACTED VEHICLE.

MY HEADLIGHTS STOPPED WORKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD & THE DRL LED LIGHTS AROUND THE HEADLIGHTS WERE STILL ON, BUT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT. I TRIED TURNING THE LIGHTS OFF/ON, TRIED TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF/ON. MY HUSBAND CHECKED THE FUSES, RELAY, & SENSORS, AS WELL AS CHANGED BOTH BULBS AND THEY STILL WILL NOT WORK. IT WAS DARK WHILE I WAS DRIVING, WHICH POSED A DANGEROUS SITUATION. UPON RESEARCHING ONLINE, THERE SEEMS TO BE OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SERVICE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PENSKE CADILLAC OF SOUTH BAY 18600 HAWTHORNE BLVD, TORRANCE, CA 90504 (310) 697-1800 WHERE DIAGNOSED THAT CONNECTOR UNDERNEATH THE SEAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO HIGH RESISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS SIMILAR TO SERVICE BULLETIN 10057064-3254. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.

WAS BACKING UP ON A DRIVEWAY AND WAS NEXT TO A CAR AND APPARENTLY WAS CLOSER THAN I THOUGHT AND HIT THE CAR BECAUSE MY SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM IS NOT OPERATING AND NO SENSORS OR WARNING SOUNDS WENT OFF. 'SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM' IS ON MY DASH.

MY 2014 GMC ACADIA SHUTS OFF FROM TIME TO TIME WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH NO WARNINGS AND THERE IS NO ACTIVE CODES ON A SCANNER NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THIS HAPPENS RADIO KEEPS PLAYING AND DASH IS STILL LIT UP BUT ENGIN IS NOT RUNNING THIS RESULTS IN A LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND THE BRAKES NOT WORKING PROPERLY ONCE YOU GET THE CAR OFF THE ROAD AND TURN THE KEY THE CAR STARTS BACK UP AND CONTINUES TO RUN NORMALLY THIS HAS HAPPENED TWO TIMES TO ME IN ABOUT A 3 WEEK PERIOD NOT SURE WHAT THE ISSUE IS BUT I GOOGLED THE PROBLEM AND FOUND A LOT OF THE SAME ISSUE EVERY TIME THIS ISSUE OCCURRED IT WAS WHILE TURNING ON TO A BUSY STREET. I FEEL SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED DO TO THIS PROBLEM

SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS BEEN GOING ON AND OFF FOR A COUPLE WEEKS. AS OF 4 DAYS AGO IT HAS BEEN ON AND STAYED ON. I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE SENSOR IN THE SEAT AND FROM RESEARCH IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM IN THIS VEHICLE
