2013 GMC Terrain complaints

THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF..THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THE ACCELERATION ISSUES..WHEN I GIVE THE GAS TO INCREASE SPEED IT HESITATE..AND SOMETIMES THE ENGINE RACES FOR NO REASON..AND WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE IT WILL NOT GO..IT GETS STUCK..I HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK FOR A MINUTE THE PUT IT BACK INTO DRIVE THEN IT WILL GO.

CAR MAKES TERRIBLE ENGINE NOISE WHEN STARTING/AS IT IDLES. THIS IS ALMOST ALWAYS DUE TO LOW OIL.THIS CAR BURNS THROUGH OIL FASTER THAN ANYTHING IVE EVER SEEN. EVEN WITH FULL SYNTHETIC OIL I HAVE TO ADD AT LEAST QUART EVERY 700 MILES FOR SO. KEEPING THE OIL LEVEL UP HELPS OBV, HOWEVER THIS PROBLEM WAS GOING ON FOR SOME TIME BEFORE I FIGURED OUT THE CAR WAS CONSUMING OIL AT A SUPER FAST RATE. SO WHO KNOWS WHAT DAMAGE MAY BE INSIDE THE ENGINE AT THIS POINT. IT HAS BEEN REPORTED THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE TIMING CHAIN ON THE I4 ENGINES AND THEY BURN OIL BECAUSE THE TIMING IS OFF. HOWEVER GM'S ONLY FIX THUS FAR IS TO RUN AN OIL STUDY WHICH TAKES UP A LOT OF TIME.THIS IS ALSO HUGE PAIN WHEN DEALING WITH ANY DEALER, BECAUSE ONLY A GM DEALER CAN RUN THE TEST, AND EVEN IF IT IS FOUND THAT YOUR CAR IS BURNING OIL THEY WILL DETERMINE IT AS "NORMAL" IF IT'S NOT A SPECIFIC RATE. THERE'S NO WAY FULL SYNTHETIC SHOULD BE BURNING UP THIS QUICKLY. GM NEEDS TO DO A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE BUT WILL NOT BECAUSE ONCE THEY TRULY FIX THE ISSUE IT WILL OPEN UP A CAN OF WORMS THAT WOULD COST THEM THOUSANDS. SO INSTEAD THE COST IS PASSED ON TO THE OWNER. IF THEY DO OFFER A FIX AFTER THE OIL STUDY IT'S ONLY FOR A PISTON RING KIT WHICH DOES NOT ACTUALLY FIX THE PROBLEM OF THE BAD TIMING CHAIN. SO FAR THE ONLY RELIEF I HAVE FOUND IS TO TURN THE ECO MODE OFF. THIS GIVES A LITTLE RELIEF TO THE CONSTANT FILLING OF OIL. OTHER THAN THAT IF THE CAR IS LOW ON OIL YOU WILL FEEL A CHUGGING/ JERKING OF THE CAR,

PCV VALVE ORIFICE CLOGGED/FROZEN OVER. CAUSED PRESSURE IN THE CRANKCASE WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, CAR DIED AT A STOPLIGHT. REMOVED ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK, RELEASED PRESSURE TO GET VEHICLE TO A SHOP. MECHANIC CLEANED ORIFICE, DRILLED ORIFICE TO A WIDER DIAMETER, AND CLEANED ALL RELATED ENGINE PARTS. GM REFUSES TO REIMBURSE EVEN THOUGH SAME ENGINES WITH DIFFERENT VIN ARE COVERED UNDER TSB 14882. BILL FOR SERVICE ATTACHED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC TERRAIN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE'S POWER SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. A LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 118,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE VEHICLE HAS SYMPTOMS OF #13-06-01-003H: EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION ' PERFORM OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND/OR INSTALL PISTON AND PISTON RING KIT ' (FEB 9, 2016) THE TEST STATES THE FOLLOWING: IF THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST INDICATES THAT THE RATE OF CONSUMPTION IS GREATER THAN 1 QUART (0.946 L) OF OIL EVERY 2,000 MILES (3,200 KM), NOTE THE OIL CONSUMPTION RATE, THE DATE THAT THE ECM WAS REPROGRAMMED AND ANY REPAIRS/DIAGNOSIS THAT YOU HAVE PERFORMED. THE LAST TIME I CHECKED, I WAS DOWN ALMOST 2 QUARTS FROM 5 AROUND 5000 MILES THIS MAY NOT QUALIFY, BUT IS CERTAINLY NOT CORRECT.

MY CAR STARTING SPUTTERING YESTERDAY MORNING. BY LUNCH, I WAS A QUART LOW ON OIL. I ADDED A QUART OF OIL AND MADE IT APPROXIMATELY 20 MILES WHEN MY CAR STARTED SPUTTERING AGAIN, A DASHBOARD LIGHT CAME ON SAYING ENGINE WAS SLOWING DOWN AND THEN IT DIED. WHEN I RESTARTED IT, THE LOW OIL LIGHT WAS ON AND IT SAID STOP ENGINE NOW. I CALLED TOW TRUCK AND HAD IT TOWED TO THOMPSON SALES IN SPRINGFIELD MO - THE OFFICIAL GMC DEALER. I WAS CALLED TODAY AND TOLD IT WAS THE PCV VALVE THAT FROZE UP, CAUSING A BACK UP IN PRESSURE, CAUSING THE REAR MAIN SEAL TO BLOW. I HAVE BEEN DOING RESEARCH ON THIS TODAY, ONLY TO FIND THAT APPARANTLY THERE ARE MANY GMC TERRAINS IN THE 2010-2013 YEARS THAT HAVE BEEN HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS. WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL ON THIS? WHEN I RESEARCH IT MYSELF, I FIND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. APPARANTLY, GMC ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN ON THIS EXACT PROBLEM, BUT THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL. NOW, I AM LOOKING AT HAVING TO HAVE A WHOLE NEW ENGINE PUT INTO A CAR THAT IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC TERRAIN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, A SOUND WAS HEARD FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TOWED TO BEES CHEVROLET (2100 OLD US 27, ST. JOHNS, MI, 48879, 989-224-2345) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PVC FROZE AND CAUSED THE REAR CRANKSHAFT SEAL TO BLOW. THE TECHNICIAN RECOMMENDED AND REPLACED THE ENGINE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. *TR

GMC BULLETIN 14882 SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT ' PLUGGED PCV ORIFICE IN INTAKE MANIFOLD THIS BULLETIN NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED ON MY 2013 GMC TERRAIN. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK IN -11 TEMPS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN HER CAR STARTED SPUTTERING AND MAKING A WHINING NOISE. ABOUT A MILE UP THE ROAD HER CAR DASH READS " CRITICAL OIL PRESSURE" AND THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF. MY WIFE WAS STUCK IN THE FREEZING COLD FOR OVER 40 MINUTES BEFORE A TOW TRUCK ARRIVED. THE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 58,000 MILES ON IT. I HAD PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. MY MECHANIC FOUND THAT THE MAIN SEAL AND PCV SYSTEM FROZE UP. HE MENTIONED THAT THE SAME ISSUE THAT GMC RELEASED UNDER BULLETIN 14882 HAD HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE. I CALLED GM AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WOULD NOT BE WARRANTIED AS IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY 1 DAY PRIOR, THEY ALSO MENTIONED THE BULLETIN DID NOT APPLY TO MY VEHICLE BECAUSE MY VIN DID NOT MATCH THE PRODUCT RECALL. THEY RECOMMENDED THAT I TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A GM DEALER TO INSPECT (IN WHICH THEY SAID I WOULD PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC FEE). I TOLD GM (CUSTOMER CARE) THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NEED A TOW AS IT WONT START AND UNSAFE TO RUN. I ENDED UP PAYING FOR A TOW TO A GM DEALERSHIP AND THEY LOOKED AT THE VEHICLE AND VERIFIED THAT COST WOULD BE $2200 TO MAKE THE REPAIRS AND VERIFIED THAT THE ISSUE IS THE SAME AS BULLETIN 14882. I HAVE OPENED UP A CASE WITH GM CUSTOMER CARE BUT HAVE GOTTEN NOWHERE WITH THEM ON WHY MY VEHICLE IS NOT ADDED TO THE 14882 BULLETIN WHEN THEIR MEC

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC TERRAIN. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PENSKE BUICK GMC OF CERRITOS (18400 STUDEBAKER RD, CERRITOS, CA 90703, (866) 365-2940) TWICE, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. ON THE THIRD OCCURRENCE, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE AN UNKNOWN FAILURE DIAGNOSIS WAS DETERMINED AND UNKNOWN PARTS WERE REPLACED IN THE STEERING COLUMN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND A CASE WAS OPENED. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE UNKNOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC TERRAIN. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, ALL THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE PREVENTED THE RADIO, FUEL GAUGE, AND OTHER COMPONENTS FROM WORKING. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AUTO ZONE FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT NO FAILURE CODES WERE PRODUCED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO KOCOUREK GMC (1500 MORNING GLORY LN, WAUSAU, WI 54401) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO PAY REGULAR PRICE IN ORDER TO HAVE THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THERE WAS ONE UNRELATED RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH THE VIN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

DRIVING TO FAMILY DINNER ON CHRISTMAS DAY AND VEHICLE STALLED AND DIED ON SIDE OF ROAD IN -35 DEGREE WEATHER. NO INDICATION OF FAILURE, NO DASH WARNING INDICATORS. VEHICLE WAS MOVING AT POSTED SPEED LIMIT (55MPH) WHEN INCIDENT OCCURRED. ROAD CONDITIONS WHERE GOOD...SUNNY DAY. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP (WHEELER'S AUTOMOTIVE OF ABBOTSFORD, WI) AND, AFTER A DIAGNOSTIC, IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE CRANK SHAFT MALFUNCTIONED CAUSING A CONNECTING ROD TO GO THROUGH THE ENGINE BLOCK...A CATASTROPHIC MALFUNCTION WITHIN THE ENGINE ITSELF. CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE REPAIR COSTS (NEW ENGINE) AND WE WERE TOLD THAT OUR VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. OUR WARRANTY ENDED 08/30/2017 WITH 100,003 MILES. OUR VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 102,XXX MILES. OIL CHANGES WERE ALWAYS COMPLETED AT A GM CERTIFIED REPAIR CENTER (WHEELER'S OF MARSHFIELD, WI). THERE WAS NO INDICATED FROM A MECHANIC THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE OIL, AND THERE WAS NO DASH INDICATORS TO LET US KNOW AS CONSUMERS THERE WAS AN ISSUE. THIS IS A MALFUNCTION OF THE GM 2.4L DIRECT INJECTION ENGINE, AND THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND RECALLED. COUNTLESS FAMILIES DEPEND ON A SAFE AND RELIABLE VEHICLE TO MAINTAIN THEIR HOUSEHOLD. PLEASE FIND ATTACHED AN EMAIL WITH GM CUSTOMER SERVICE, THE INFORMATION CAN BE REQUESTED AND OBTAINED THROUGH THE CONTACT INFORMATION THROUGH THEM. IF NEEDED WE CAN PROVIDE A SALES/REPAIR INVOICE AND PHONE RECORDS OF US CONTACTING GM CUSTOMER SERVICE MULT

WHILE DRIVING HOME I STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND NOTICED A KNOCKING SOUND IN LOW RPM RANGE. I CONTINUED THE REMAINING 1 MILE HOME. WHEN I GOT HOME AND OUT OF THE VEHICLE I COULD SMELL BURNING OIL. I LOOKED UNDER THE VEHICLE AND THERE WAS A PUDDLE OF OIL ON THE GROUND AS WELL AS LOTS OF OIL DRIPPING FROM THE VEHICLE. AFTER HAVING A GM TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE PCV VALUE HAD CLOGGED/FROZEN CAUSING INCREASED PRESSURE IN THE CRANKCASE AND BLOWING OUT THE REAR MAIN OIL SEAL. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT WAS STATED IN A SERVICE BULLETIN (SB-10057977-8108) THAT GM HAS OUT. MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT COVERED WITH THIS BULLETIN FOR SOME REASON, BUT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS DRIVETRAIN. THE SERVICE BULLETIN (SB-10057977-8108) SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO COVER ALL VEHICLES WITH THE 2.4 LITER 4 CYLINDER ENGINE. MY VEHICLE IS JUST 2 MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY AND GM IS ONLY OFFERING TO COVER 30% OF THE REPAIR COST. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED.

ALL THE OIL LEAKED OUT REAR OF ENGINE, WHILST PARKED AT WORKPLACE.CRANKCASE PRESSURE, MOISTURE BUILD UP, AND/OR SLUDGE BUILD UP. ACCORDING TO BULLETIN PIP5093A CAUSED BY COLD TEMPERATURE, IT GOT DOWN TO ABOUT 17 DEGREES HERE IN TEXAS. MECHANIC SAYS IT WILL COST $1,800.00TO REPAIR. GMC DEALER SAYS IT'S NOT A RECALL AND IS NOT COVERED. APPARENTLY, A LOT OF THE 2.4L ENGINES IN SEVERAL MODELS HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM HAPPEN. AUTO HAS 90,000 MILES ON IT, AND I ONLY DRIVE ABOUT 10 MILES DAILY. ACCORDING TO GM BULLETINS THIS IS KNOWN TO THEM, AS IT HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. I BELIEVE THAT GM NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM AND REIMBURSE THE OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES FOR THESE EXPENSIVE REPAIRS.

THE VEHICLE CONSUMES OIL AT A RATE MUCH HIGHER THAN "NORMAL". BETWEEN MANUFACTURES RECOMMENDED OIL CHANGE INTERVAL THE VEHICLE WILL CONSUME 40-50% OF THE ENGINES OIL CAPACITY. THIS IS DETERMINED TO NOT BE OUT OF SPECIFICATION IN REGARDS TO ISSUED SERVICE BULLETINS FOR THE VEHICLE, BUT IS NOT "NORMAL" OR STATED AS OPERATING AS DESIGNED BY THE GMC OPERATION MANUAL/DOCUMENTATION. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER PERFORMANCE AND RELIABILITY ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE RELATED TO IGNITION AND TIMING WHEREAS THE VEHICLE WILL NOT RUN/START/OR STALLS(CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR ISSUES). SERVICE BULLETINS ON THE SAME VEHICLE INDICATED EXCESSIVE WEAR ON TIMING CHAIN ASSEMBLIES(WHICH CAN LEAD TO TIMING ISSUES) AS A RESULT OF THE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. UPON TAKING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND UNDERGOING MULTIPLE OIL CONSUMPTION TESTS WHICH REVEALED OIL USAGE AT A RATE OF .4 - .5 QUARTS PER 1,500 MILES, IT WAS DETERMINED THE VEHICLE DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR COVERAGE UNDER THE ISSUED SERVICE BULLETIN.

THERE ARE SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE WHICH MAKES ME THINK THIS CAR WAS A LEMON, UNREPORTED BY ORIGINAL OWNER, OR IN A FLOOD; 1ST, THE REAR HATCH STRUTS WERE TOTALLY RUSTED OUT AND INOPERABLE (REINFORCING MY FLOOD THOUGHT.) 2ND, THE VEHICLES MPG IS NOWHERE NEAR THE ADVERTISED 22/32 - I MENTIONED MY CONCERN SEVERAL TIMES TO THE SERVICE DEPT, THE SALES MAN, AND THE CERTIFIED SALE MANAGER; THEIR SOLUTION - THEY RESET THE GAUGE ON THE DASHBOARD! 3RD, WITHIN DAYS OF MY PURCHASE, I NOTICED A KNOCK UNDER MY CAR THAT SOUNDED LIKE AN AXLE WAS GOING TO BUST THROUGH MY FLOORBOARD IT WAS KNOCKING SO HARD! AFTER NUMEROUS SERVICE REPAIR ATTEMPTS & VISITS BACK TO THE DEALER, ONE VISIT LASTING APPROXIMATELY 7 DAYS, THEY THINK THEY'VE FIXED THE PROBLEM. SECONDARY FUEL TANK FUEL PUMP MODULE - (CONTRIBUTING TO FUEL CONSUMPTION ISSUE?) 4TH, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO WORK, IN THE FAST LANE, @ 6AM ONE DARK, RAINY MORNING, DURING A TORRENTIAL DOWN POUR ALMOST CAUSING A MAJOR PILE UP! 5TH, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, STUMBLES AND MISFIRES ON ACCELERATION, SHUTS OFF WHEN STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT. REPAIRED/SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS LATER. 6TH, THE CONTINUING ISSUES HAVE BEEN, BUT NOT LIMITED TO REDUCED ENGINE POWER, ROUGH IDLE, ENGINE SPUTTERS, HESITATES, POOR GAS MILEAGE, & EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. 7TH, ANOTHER CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, NOW FUEL-INJECTORS NEED REPLACED (ANOTHER CONTRIBUTOR TO FUEL CONSUMPTION ISSUE?) . AFTER FURTHER REVIEW OF THE VEHICLE'S CPO

TAKATA RECALL - AS I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON A LOCAL ROAD IT STARTED TO RAIN ONE MORNING. I FLIPPED THE SWITCH TO TURN ON MY WIND SHIELD WIPERS AND THEY WOULD NOT MOVE. THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT MIGHT BE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND THAT IT WOULD COST A TON OF MONEY BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAVE TO TAKE PARTS OFF IN ORDER TO GET TO THE WIPERS TO SEE WHAT WAS CAUSING THE WIPERS TO NOT WORK. THEY JUST DID NOT MOVE AT ALL. I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER IN SEPTEMBER OF 2016 FOR THE WIPERS SAYING THAT THERE WAS A DEFECT. I TOOK MY TERRAIN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TOLD THEM THERE WAS A RECALL. THEY LOOKED IT UP AND SAW THAT IT WAS INDEED A RECALL BUT THAT GMC HAD NOT FIGURED OUT HOW TO FIX IT. THEY SAID I NEEDED TO WAIT FOR ANOTHER LETTER. I HAVE BEEN CHECKING THE WEBSITE EVERY MONTH TO SEE IF THE RECALL HAS BEEN UPDATED AND IT HAS NOT. NOW ITS FEBRUARY 2ND OF 2017 AND THERE IS STILL NOT A SECOND LETTER EXPLAINING HOW TO FIX THE DEFECT OR THE PARTS TO FIX IT WITH. WHEN YOU FLIP THE SWITCH TO TURN ON THE FRONT WIPERS THEY DO NOT MOVE, BUT YOU CAN HEAR THE MOTOR FOR IT GOING. THE WIPERS IN THE BACK WORKS, JUST NOT THE FRONT. *TR
