Defect. General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2010-2017 GMC Terrain vehicles.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Risk. The bright reflection may cause a glare for other drivers, reducing their visibility and increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Dealers will install headlamp appliques, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 8, 2022. Owners may contact GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is N222363740.

I am reporting an auto dealership and its finance company for contract fraud, electronic profile manipulation, and using illegal repossession threats to cover it up. During my vehicle purchase, the dealership used deceptive bait-and-switch tactics. They altered my final contract numbers without my consent, hid account ledgers, and changed how my down payment was applied. Crucially, they entered falsified financial metrics and manipulated personal tracking data within the electronic underwriting systems and lending networks to force a loan approval that never should have happened. The business records prove the companies have known about this active fraud dispute since March 31st, when I placed a formal cease-and-desist call to management. Instead of stopping collection activities to investigate the fraud, they ignored my notices, hid my payment histories, and completely refused to cooperate. Now, even though these companies are actively being sued in state court for these exact consumer protection violations, they are weaponizing aggressive repossession threats to try and bypass judicial oversight. The dealership sent a physical letter threatening immediate repossession while openly admitting my dispute flags had been active since March 31st. Shortly after, on the exact same day their legal counsel received the court lawsuit papers, the finance company mailed an aggressive notice threatening a live repossession of my vehicle by a strict deadline of July 2nd. They are delibera

Both were caused by GM using soy based insulation on wiring that made it a delicacy to the animals and caused them to eat through two wiring harnesses, one of which GM no longer makes.

Faulty timing chain

My defrost system doesn't work. As I drive down the road my windshield fogs up andni can't get it to un fog at all or fast enough. Almost caused me to have an accident before Christmas

The defroster/ radio control/ heating area stopped working. Upon visiting a mechanic was told they never seen this or heard of this happening before and quoted me over $1,000.00 dollars to fix stating that due to Federal Law they have to give an estimate but this problem not being in their system they came up with an estimate based on parts and labor. Upon searching online I found a recall for this issue dating back to 2009 recall number was 09V489000 but was never informed about this and while looking up my car it’s not listed but being a safety issue should still be current which it is not.

As i went to drive my terrain we bought back in June or July. But for the absolute first time we needed to use the defrost/defogger button last week on OCTOBER 20, 2022 and it wouldn't work. No lights came on to say it was defaulty. It also started to make our radio screen flicker when i tried to turn defrost on and it's continuously flickering and defrost doesn't engage on front windshield at all won't even melt snow or help defog when it's been raining or it's cold out. I almost wrecked my terrain due to this problem. Now on my instrument panel says camshaft/crankshaft sensor says service stabilitrack and something about my AWD System. All these happened within a week from trying to use my defrost. Also my instrument panel where it shows how fast i go flickers and it flickers on the RPM side as well. Noone has touched or looked it over since i have owned my 2010 terrain. Everything was just fine up till i pushed my defrost button and then all the other stuff happened

My 2010 Terrain had been been intermittent dash warnings for “Service StabiliTrac” and “Engine Power Reduced” which would force the engine to reduce the speed itself down to about 30 MPH. After turning off car and restarting, warnings would go away. Yesterday, while driving on a secondary road, with no check engine light on, the engine stalled while traveling at approx 35 MPH. I was able to drop the vehicle into neutral and coast onto a side street, while also attempting to restart the engine. I was able to pull over without causing an accident. After letting the car sit for a few minutes I attempted to restart the engine, but only got a strange noise from the area of the upper cylinders. At his point the check engine light was now on. While waiting for a tow truck, and independent mechanic pulled up to ask if I needed help. After listening to the noice from the upper engine he asked if he could get tools and look in the engine. I said yes. He quickly pulled parts off the upper engine and opened and removed the upper cylinder cover. This revealed that the timing chain had no tension, as well as shards of shattered plastic all over the place, in and around the upper cylinders. After pointing this out he put everything back together and suggested I contact the dealership I got the vehicle from, which I have done already. He then stated that it appears that the engine would need to be replaced or rebuilt, due to catastrophic engine failure. He said my quick thinking of putting t

I bought my 2010 GMC Terrain SLE at 160,000. It had a rough start up but the dealer said it was because it was an older car and been sitting for a while. The rough start up never stopped even after replacing the catalytic converter because of code P0420. The mechanic informed of this specific vehicle oil composition so I was consistently checking the oil. A month after the NEW catalytic converter was installed. I stalled out on the interstate with traffic going 65 mph minimum, the wheel locked and I was almost rear ended.

ONE NIGHT MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING ON A COUNTRY TWO LANE ROAD DURING A HEAVY RAIN STORM WHEN THE WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED IN THE STRAIGHT UP POSITION ALMOST OFF THE WINDSHIELD. IT IS ONLY BY GOD THAT SHE WAS NOT INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE SHE HAD ZERO VISIBILITY. A SCARY SITUATION BECAUSE SHE WAS MEETING TRAFFIC AND BEHIND HER WAS AN 18 WHEELER BIG TRUCK AND OTHER VARIOUS VEHICLES. AS AN ADDED ISSUE SHE HAD NO PHONE RECEPTION TO CALL FOR HELP, DANGEROUSLY SITTING, BARELY OFF THE ROAD, ON THE 'SMALL' SHOULDER OF THAT TWO LANE ROAD AS A YOUNG WOMAN WITH NO HELP IN A HEAVY RAINSTORM. SHE HAD TO SIT AND WAIT UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED TO PROCEED TO A SAFE AREA, FORTUNATELY WITHOUT AN INCIDENT, THANK GOD. UPON INSPECTION IT WAS NOTED THAT THE FAILURE OF THE WIPER SYSTEM WAS RELATED TO THE PLASTIC GROMMET COMING APART FROM THE METAL BALL IN WHICH IT WAS ATTACHED. POOR DESIGN SHOULD BE NOTED IN THAT THIS ATTACHMENT IS UPSIDE DOWN. A CONSTANT WEAR IS GOING TO TAKE PLACE BEING A PLASTIC GROMMET SURROUNDING A METAL BALL IN THE UPSIDE DOWN POSITION ALLOWING WATER AND DIRT TO ENTER THE JOINT FURTHER INCITING THE POSSIBILITY OF A DISLODGING IN THE FUTURE. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN OR WHERE THIS WILL HAPPEN, OR WHAT SITUATION YOU MIGHT BE IN, FURTHER PROMOTING THE POSSIBILITY FOR AN ACCIDENT AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. THANKFULLY GOD GUIDED MY DAUGHTER TO GET OFF THE ROAD AND KEPT HER SAFE. IN ALL MY YEARS OF DRIVING I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS TYPE OF ISSUE BEING SO PREVALENT IN SO MANY MODEL YE
