Safety Issue:
General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2010-2017 GMC Terrain vehicles. A reflection caused by the headlight housings may illuminate areas above the vehicle and outside of the driver's view with excessively bright light. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Defect Description:
SEAT BELTS
Potential Consequences:
The front passenger seat belt locks on passenger and will not release unless it is completely unbuckled. It keeps doing this for no reason. This was brought to dealer’s attention one to two years ago and they said I would have to pay cost of repair since warranty was off even though I purchased an extended warranty with this vehicle. The service department claims to have taken it apart and cleaned it but could not find problem. The problem is bad since passenger has to unbuckle belt multiple times during a trip.

Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
The rear main seal is out, which is causing an oil leak. The intake manifold failed because the pvc system has a clog which has caused too much pressure to build up and caused the rear main seal to blow out. (PVC pipe is freezing over in cold temperatures which causes the failure of the main seal to blow out subsequently leading to additional major issues and parts failure. This issue has occurred in an overwhelming amount of vehicles.)

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Pulling into work parking lot on Saturday 31Dec2022, my engine died, thinking it was the alternator or the starter, had it towed to a repair shop. Didn’t find out until Monday, 2Jan2023, that the engine completely locked up. The rear seal blew out and drained all the oil. I have been reading up on this and apparently this is reoccurring thing in said make and model of 2017. GMC and GM have to put out a recall on these vehicles with this manufacturing error/problem. Now I have to get a new goddamn vehicle because I cannot afford to get the engine replaced, which costs around $7000. End of message.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
It was Christmas weekend, the coldest days our area had seen this time of year in decades. Temperatures were around 0 degrees, with wind chills that were -25 below. The check engine light had come on the day before. My husband was literally driving to the mechanic to have it looked at, when the vehicle completely broke down across the street from his destination. Thank God he was approaching an intersection when it died, and not traveling at a higher rate of speed, where he could have been injured, or others on the roadway around him could have been injured. We had the vehicle towed to our GMC dealership where we purchased it just three years prior. Upon inspection from the mechanic, it was determined that the PCV valve was plugged causing pressure on the rear main seal, which then blew out, bending the valve covers, breaking the timing chain, the water pump chain, and damaging the head gasket. The whole bottom of the motor was covered in oil. Absolute catastrophic damage!! I’m told the cost to replace these parts to essentially rebuild the engine, would start at approximately $4000. A brand new engine would be about $11,000! This entire situation to me is just unbelievable! A five year old GM vehicle, with just 46,000 miles on it! This should not have happened. In researching, I’ve been made aware that this is a common issue with GMC Terrains. In fact there was Technical Service Bulletin made by GM for 2010-2013 models whose PCV valve would clog causing rear main seal blow outs. The holes were so small in diameter, technicians would use a 1/16 drill head to clean it out. This is an obvious manufacturer defect that apparently hasn’t been resolved in the newer model Terrains. How has this not been a safety recall yet?? Shame on you GM! This will be the last GMC vehicle I will own!

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER
Potential Consequences:
On5/3/2022 we were driving on I65 around Shepherdsville KY. It was pouring down rain and our windshield wipers stopped working and stuck in the up position. We had a semi on each side of us. This made it even more difficult to see due to the rain coming off of their tires and spraying onto our window. We had to slow down to a dangerous low speed on the interstate due to the difficulty seeing. We made it to the shoulder after almost being hit by a semi We had to sit there until the rain stopped. This was extremely dangerous in itself being that it was on an interstate with high speed limits. We had no choice but to stop in the town of Shephardsville and get a hotel room. We are still trying to make our way back home at this time to IN. This has not been expected by anyone at this time. There were no warnings of any kind.
Corrective Action:
On5/3/2022 we were driving on I65 around Shepherdsville KY. It was pouring down rain and our windshield wipers stopped working and stuck in the up position. We had a semi on each side of us. This made it even more difficult to see due to the rain coming off of their tires and spraying onto our window. We had to slow down to a dangerous low speed on the interstate due to the difficulty seeing. We made it to the shoulder after almost being hit by a semi We had to sit there until the rain stopped. This was extremely dangerous in itself being that it was on an interstate with high speed limits. We had no choice but to stop in the town of Shephardsville and get a hotel room. We are still trying to make our way back home at this time to IN. This has not been expected by anyone at this time. There were no warnings of any kind.
