POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
HAVE HAD THIS INTO THE DEALER AT THE FIRST OIL CHANGE AND COMPLAINED ABOUT TRANSMISSION SHIFTING ISSUES AND IT BEING UNSAFE TO DRIVE. COMPLAINTS ARE: HARD SHIFT, IT CLUNKS BOTH UPSHIFTING AND DOWNSHIFTING. GOING AROUND CORNERS FROM A STOP THE TRUCK WILL EITHER FALL ON ITS FACE OR JERKS YOU VIOLENTLY FORWARD. IN STOP OR GO TRAFFIC IT IS UNSAFE AND HAPPENS VERY FREQUENTLY- IT RANDOMLY ACCELERATES (JUMPS) QUICKLY ON ITS OWN WITH SLIGHT PEDAL PRESSURE TO THE POINT WHERE YOU CONSTANTLY HAVE TO BE AWARE AND HAVE YOUR FOOT NEAR THE BRAKE OR YOU CAUSE AN ACCIDENT BY REAR ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT, ITS AS IF THE TRANSMISSION ELECTRONICS GET CONFUSED ON HOW TO ACT. FEEL SHUDDERING FROM TRUCK'S MOTOR WHERE COLUMN SHIFT LEVER WOULD SHUDDER VIOLENTLY WHERE I WAS AFRAID IT WOULD VIBRATE OUT OF POSITION. ROUGH IDLE IS INCONSISTENT AT LOWER SPEED WHERE YOU SEE TACH GOING UP AND DOWN. STARTING COLD YOU GIVE IT AN EASY PEDAL TO MOVE AND WOULDN'T GO. TRANS DOESN'T KICK IN UNTIL YOU PRESS HARDER AND SOMETIMES WILL LUNGE. HAVE TAKEN INTO THE VARIOUS DEALERS 5-6 TIMES, VALVE BODY CHANGE, ENGINE MOTOR MOUNTS CHANGE AND DEALERS CAN FIND NO FIX. GM POWERTRAIN WAS EVEN INVOLVED WITH NO HELP. COMPLAINED TO THE GMC HOTLINE AND THEY SAID NEED 12,000 MILES ON TRUCK BEFORE THE TRUCK KNOWS HOW TO DRIVE BECAUSE OF THE 'SMART' TRANSMISSION WHERE IT LEARNS YOU'RE DRIVING HABITS. COMPLAINED THERE ARE 2 OF US THAT DRIVE IT HOW CAN IT LEARN EACH INDIVIDUALS DRIVING WHEN IT DOESN'T REALLY KNOW WHO IS DRIVING. THEY FINALLY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE FOR IT, THAT IS THE WAY IT IS. THIS ALL HAPPENS SPORADICALLY IN BOTH CITY LOW SPEED DRIVING AND HIGHWAY DRIVING, TURNING, BACKING UP OR GOING FORWARD FROM PARKING. BECAUSE OF THESE ISSUES, DIDN'T REALLY DRIVE THE TRUCK MUCH BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEMS.

MY 2017 GMC SIERRA DENALI HAD ALREADY BEEN THE SUBJECT OF THE RECALL RELATING TO THE BRAKE ISSUE. SHORTLY AFTER THEY PERFORMED THIS RECALL WORK THE BRAKES BEGAN FAILING AT LOW SPEED. WHEN DRIVING BELOW 5 MPH, THE PEDAL WHICH SUDDENLY FALL AND THE ABS WOULD TRIGGER. DURING THIS TIME, THE CAR WOULD CONTINUE MOVING WITH THE ABS FULLY VIBRATING. THANKFULLY, MY TRAILER HITCH ABSORB THE REAR IMPACT AGAINST A WALL. THE PROBLEM CONTINUED. I THEN TOOK THE TRUCK IN FOR SERVICE AND THEY REPORTED THAT THERE HAS BEEN A SIGNIFICANT FAILURE RATE OF THE VACUUM ASSIST. THE DEALER REPLACE THE VACUUM PUMP AND VACUUM LINES. I'M EXTREMELY CONCERNED THAT THIS WOULD HAPPEN TO SOMEONE ELSE NEAR AN INTERSECTION, NOT JUST SLOWLY BACKING INTO PARKING SPACES. I HAVE CONTACTED GMC BY EMAIL BUT STILL HAVE RECEIVED NO RESPONSE OR ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF MY COMMUNICATIONS.

Potential Consequences:
MY BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING TO ITS FULL POTENTIAL. I BELIEVE MY VACUUM PUMP IS GOING BACK ON MY TRUCK. I NOTICED LAST WEEK THAT I WAS DRIVING OUT OF A PARKING LOT AND COMING TO A STOP SIGN AND I PRESSED MY BRAKES AND IT WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I HAD TO RELEASE THE BRAKE AND SLAM ON THE BRAKES AGAIN ALMOST CAUSING A ACCIDENT WITH INCOMING TRAFFIC. I CALLED ALL MY LOCAL DEALERSHIPS AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THIS JUST YET FOR MY TRUCK, BUT THERE IS A RECALL ON THE VACUUM PUMP. THEY STATED THEY ALREADY DID THE SOFTWARE UPDATE TO MY TRUCK BACK IN SEPTEMBER 2019. MY TRUCK WAS GOING MAYBE 10 MPH TO A STOP SIGN AND I APPLIED MY BRAKES ONCE AND WAS NOT COMPLETELY STOPPING, SO I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL, AND IT GOT WORSE AND I HAD THE BRAKES PRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR. THIS IS NOT SAFE! THIS IS MY DAILY DRIVER AND I DROP MY KIDS OFF TO SCHOOL EVERY DAY AND ITS NOT A GOOD FEELING KNOWING MY BRAKES CAN GO OUT AT ANY TIME!

Potential Consequences:
VEHICLE SHIFTS VERY HARD IN AND OUT OF 1ST AND 2ND GEAR. WHEN STARTING TO GO AT LOW SPEEDS THE VEHICLE ALMOST STOPS WHEN SHIFTING AND THEN JERKS WHEN IT SHIFTS. SAME OCCURS WHEN SLOWING TO A STOP. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THE POWER TRAIN WAS REPROGRAMMED. THE ISSUE WAS A LITTLE BETTER FOR A WHILE. A FEW WEEKS LATER THE SAME ISSUE APPEARED AGAIN. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER IN JANUARY 2020 AND THERE IS NOW A CHECK ENGINE CODE. DEALER PLANS TO CHANGE 2 HARNESSES AND CHANGE THE FLUID. UNFORTUNATELY THE PARTS ARE ON BACK ORDER WHICH KIND OF TELLS A STORY.

Potential Consequences:
IN MY DRIVEWAY ON DRY PAVEMENT AT SLOW SPEEDS WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL THE VEHICLE DOES NOT STOP SATISFACTORY. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS THEN PRESSED UNTIL IT WAS VERY HARD THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO MOVE BUT SLOWLY BEGAN TO STOP. WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE MAXIMUM AND A FIRM PEDAL A NOISE COULD BE HEARD FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THE NOISE SOUNDED LIKE A MOAN, SIMILAR TO THE BRAKE ANTI SKID SYSTEM BEING ACTIVATED. I WAS ABLE TO SIMULATE THIS BRAKING PROBLEM MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE BACKING UP AND MOVING FORWARD AT SLOW SPEEDS. CYCLING THE IGNITION ON AND OFF DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM.
