| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I bought the vehicle new in 95, within the first two years the transmission went out on a cross country trip in the middle of nowhere over a weekend no less. i had to wait till monday for the dealership to open. i was told that the vacuum seal for the reverse casing was thrown into the other gears leaving me only with 1st & i was on an interstate in the middle of a tunnel under the bay when it went out, not a good place to be. i have since rebuilt the tranmission again. yes 2 transmissons. i have had 2 egr valves go out a few hundred $ each time. the transmisson mounts and motor mounts have busted (maybe due to a car wreck but not sure). i have also had to replace the combo switch (for hazards, gear shift, blinkers and wipers) twice and now have to due it for a third time. the part alone is $250-$300. the first two times i had to replace it was for the hazard light button braking. the 3rd time the button broke again (just by turning on the hazards) and i have been getting by without replacing it by taping it down (otherwise the hazards are on 24/7) but know i have to replace it because there was a short in it that make my brake lights stop working when i press on the brake pedal. i also can't count how many times the abs have locked on me. it seems that any time i turn the wheel or hit a bump in the road while braking the abs locks. i have been blessed to have avoided collisions on these cases but not by much. while looking on this site i have found that there has been a recall on the abs brakes and a few other things, yet i have never been notified by gmc for any of the recalls listed here. the only thing i ever received was a recall on the back seat belt which i don't even see listed here. i have found that when ever something goes wrong with my car that it is never a simple thing to fix, it is always a major thing. i think that gmc really needs to take more time in effort to test there vehicles. there's a lot of the same complaints on this site alone. |
