Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
2016 GMC Terrain SLT, service engine light came on, vehicle stalled many times, restarted but drove and misfired, stalled again, was able to get it to repair garage who I trust. He checked code and said I had to put a complete timing chain kit. Total cost came to $992.36 and didn't have a vehicle for a week due to weekend and a holiday. The vehicle only had 30,763 miles on it at the time but was out of factory warrantee. Reading other customer complaints, this looks like an ongoing problem and I feel should warrant a recall. Additional info such as repair invoice is attached. Please reply when received and thank you for your time.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
The engine light comes on, then "service stabiltrak light" comes on. It starts by making it difficult to accelerate at a red stop light when it changes green. When turning a corner, because there is no quick acceleration, it has caused near miss accidents. As time goes on it becomes worse. I have lost power on the expressway and have to pull over. I have brought this car in several times and GMC has not made any repairs. It is scary when a semi is rolling behind you and you can't accelerate to get out of the way. This is a safety issue. I have received no help from GMC.

I CONSISTENTLY GOT MY OIL CHANGED ON TIME, MY MOST RECENT OIL CHANGE WAS YESTERDAY AT 58K MILES. BEFORE ITS EVEN TIME TO GET MY OIL CHANGED I'M FORCED TO BUY AN EXTRA QUART OF OIL BECAUSE ITS BONE DRY EMPTY. THERE IS ALSO A KNOCKING SOUND. THE LAST PERSON TO CHANGE MY OIL TOLD ME THEY HAD ANOTHER GMC TERRAIN THEY WERE WORKING ON WITH A SIEZED ENGINE FROM THE SAME PROBLEM.
Additional Notes:
I PURCHASED THIS CAR WITH 12,000-15000 MILES STILL RELATIVELY NEW (V6). EVERY TIME ITS TIME TO GET MY OIL CHANGE, THERE IS 0 OIL LEFT. MY CAR BURNS ALL THE OIL BEFORE THE NEXT OIL CHANGE EVERY TIME.
