1995 GMC Safari complaints

REAR LAP AND SHOULDER SEAT BELTS WEBBING BECOMES TWISTED AND WILL NOT RETRACT. DEALER HAS SEEN VEHICLE. *AK

WHEN FUEL TANK IS FILLED GAS SPILLS OUT ONTO SIDE OF VEHICLE, GAS FUMES FILL PASSENGER'S COMPARTMENT. DEALER HAS REPLACED FUEL FILLER NOZZLE, AND PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. *AK

UPON ATTEMTING TO START ENGINE, IT WILL NOT START, INSTEAD WILL SHAKE; THEN, CUT OFF. HAD TO TRY AND TRY FOR ENGINE TO START, MECHANIC WAS CONTACTED, AND SAID PROBLEM WAS FUEL INJECTOR.*AK THE CONSUMER WAS ASKING FOR REIMBURSMENT*YH

UPON STARTING MY MOTOR HOME I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT CLEAR TO THE FLOOR WITH LITTLE OR NO RESISTANCE. THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING AT THE TIME. I TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO "PUMP UP" THE BRAKES WITH NO CHANGE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A REPAIR STATION WHERE THE INITIAL FINDINGS ARE A MASTER CYLINDER FAILURE. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF AN EXTERNAL LEAK, BOTH BRAKE FLUID CHAMBERS ARE FULL. NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN STARTED AS OF THIS DATE 1/27/02. I CALLED MONACO/SAFARI/SPARTAN (CHASSIS) AND SPOKE TO A TECH SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE WHO CLAIMED THAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE CAUSED BY AN INTERNAL FAILURE OF THE MASTER CYLINDER. NOT BELIEVING THAT A FAILURE(NO EXTERNAL LOSS OF FLUID) COULD CAUSE THIS CONDITION I CALLED BENDIX (NOW BOSCH) ENGINEERING AND SPOKE TO MR RALPH PORTER (SP). HE INDICATED THAT THEIR MASTER CYL. COULD NOT FAIL IN THIS WAY UNLESS THERE WAS A TOTAL BREAKDOWN OF THE INTERNAL SEALS IN THE CYL. WHICH WAS MOST UNLIKELY.NEITHER COMPANY INDICATED AN INTEREST IN INVESTIGATING THIS EVENT. I HAVE REVIEWED THE FED. MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STD. 105 AND HAVE CONCLUDED THAT THIS EVENT WAS IN VIOLATION FO THE STANDARD.*AK

WHILE TRAVELING AT 40-45 MPH THE CONSUMER RAN OFF THE ROAD, AND RAN INTO A ENBANKMENT HEAD-ON AND THEN FLIPPED, BUT NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. CONTACTED DEALER, AND DEALER WAS NOT WILLING TO DO ANYTHING. *AK

I HAD TO REPLACE THE FUEL INEJCTOR SYSTEM ON THIS VEHICLE. THE MECHANIC THAT REPAIRED THIS INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS GENERAL MOTORS ENGINE. THE COST WAS CLOSE TO $500. THE FAULTY INJECTOR CAUSED RAW GASOLINE TO FLOW DOWN INTO THE CRANKCASE THINNING OUT THE ENGINE OIL. RAW FUEL WAS DRIPPING OUT OF MY EXHAUST PIPE. THIS IS A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS IT COULD LEAD TO AN ENGINE FIRE AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY. GM HAS KNOW THAT THESE INJECTORS WERE FAULTY AND I FEEL THAT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS. I WOULD ALSO LIKE GM TO REIMBURSE ME FOR THIS PART THANK YOU. *AK

WINDSHIELD WASHER FAILURE WITH INTERMITTENT FAILURE PROBLEMS SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED . EXACT SYMPTOMS AS OUTLINED IN RECALL CAMPAIGN ID# 98V150000 AND 98V150001 .*AK

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE LOST ALL OF THE FOLLOWING FUNCTIONS: POWER STEERING, BRAKES, ENGINE COOLING/WATER PUMP, AND ALL OTHER FUNCTIONS OPERATED BY THE SERPENTINE BELT. MY INITIAL INSPECTION REVEALED THAT THE SERPENTINE BELT HAD BECOME DISLODGED FROM THE PULLEY SYSTEM. FURTHER INSPECTION REVEALED THAT THE ALTERNATOR BRACKET FAILED ALLOWING THE BELT TO BECOME DISLODGED. STILL FURTHER INSPECTION BY A QUALIFIED MECHANIC REVEALED THAT THE REAR BOLT(S) HOLDING THE ALTERNATORS IN PLACE WERE MISSING ALLOWING ENOUGH DOWNWARD PRESSURE TO BE EXERTED ON THE ALTERNATOR PULLEY TO BREAK THE TWO FRONT "EARS" OF THE ALTERNATOR BRACKET AND TO THROW THE BELT OFF THE PULLEYS. THE ALTERNATOR HAS NOT BEEN REPLACED AND I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. THIS LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THE REAR BOLT(S) OF THE ALTERNATOR EITHER WERE NOT PROPERLY TIGHTENED AT THE FACTORY OR THAT THEY NEED TO BE INSPECTED OCCASSIONALLY TO ENSURE THEY HAVE NOT LOOSENED AND FALLEN OUT. I HAVE FOUND NOTHING IN THE OWNERS MANUAL SUGGESTING THAT THESE BOLTS BE CHECKED AS A ROUTINE MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE. MY GUESS IS THEY WERE NOT PROPERLY TIGHTENED IN THE FIRST PLACE. I WAS FORTUNATE IN THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT RELATIVELY LOW SPEED AS THE VEHICLE BECAME NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO EITHER STEER OR STOP.

VEHICLE WILL STALL DURING NORMAL OPERATION. DEALERSHIP HAS INSPECTED VEHICLE AND DETERMINED THAT LINEAR EXHAUST GAS CIRCULATION VALVE HAS TO BE REPLACED. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION / ATTACHMENTS.*AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS DO NOT COME ON A LOT OF THE TIME. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS WE LIVE IN RAINY PACIFIC NORTHWEST AND WE END UP DRIVING UP TO 1/2 HOUR IN RAIN BEFORE THEY COME ON IF THEY COME ON AT ALL. THIS IS A HUGE HAZARD AS IT COULD LEAD TO A VERY SERIOUS AND DEVASTATING INJURY OR LOSS. I HAVE NOT CONTACTED A DEALER YET BUT THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BECOMING MUCH WORSE. IT STARTED OUT INFREQUENTLY AND NOT FOR A LONG TIME BEFORE THE WIPERS WOULD COME ON, BUT NOW IT IS CHRONIC, IT IS NEARLY EVERY TIME. *AK

WHILE MY WIFE AND 5 SMALL CHILDREN WERE IN OUR 1995 GMC AWD SAFARI VAN, THE TORSION BAR BROKE AND THE FRONT END OF THE VAN DROPPED TO THE GROUND. FORTUNATLY THIS HAPPENED IN TOWN AND NO ONE WAS HURT. WHEN THE WRECKER ARRIVED, THE DRIVER SAID, THIS IS THE SECOND ONE THIS WEEK. WHEN I ASKED THE GMC DEALER ABOUT IT, THEY ALSO SAID THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, SERIOUS INJURY COULD HAVE OCCURED. GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS LESS THEN CONCERNED.*AK

COMING TO A STOP ON A DRY ROAD, THE PAVEMENT SURFACE CHANGED FROM DRY ASPHALT TO DRY,CRACKED CONCRETE. ANTI-LOCK KICKED IN WHEN NOT NEEDED AND I ALMOST REAR-ENDED THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. LATER THAT DAY, IN A DRIVING RAINSTORM, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR STOPPED (FOR ABOUT THE 50TH TIME) AND I WAS UNABLE TO SEE IN FRONT OF ME. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND MANUALLY TUG THE WIPER BLADE TO GET THE WIPERS TO WORK AGAIN. BOTH THESE ARE RECURRING INCIDENTS AND I HAVE COMPLAINTS ON FILE WITH GM, WHO HAS A RECALL ON BOTH ISSUES THAT YEAR "BUT NOT ON MY VEHICLE".*AK
