Description of the problem | I bough 2011 gmc terrain 4 cylinder.. About 3 months later the car start to stall on me making weird noises and losing oil.. Took to a dealership near where i live the service guy asked me if it stalls on you will have to stall on me took it for a test drive didnt stall.. I put my foot down and said to him to scan the car at the point he gave me a car to come home and i left my terrain their to see what the problem was they found out that the sensors failed and some other stuff.. After the car being their for 4 days i go pick it up and it was better... Only lasted for 6 months started again to break down and leaking oil i would change the oil every 3 months but in between i had to put oil that i would have to go to the store or gastation when i was putting gas... I am a very busy hard working person so my time is limited and i have 2 kids if not i would go to the dealership every other day to complaint... Also with not a lot of time in my hands here goes another year and the problem really never got properly fixed and the car is making crazy noises leaking oil all over and stalling again.. We could get killed in the middle of the car not functioning properly... I almost got into a car accident cause i was driving and car just stopped... This is unfair especially after reading hundreds of complaints when i just type on my computer 2011 gmc stalling problems tons of people are complaint the same way with the same problems i am having... Oil leaking stalling on highways just horrible i also had the car towed about 2 months ago just stopped cam sensor need to changed again. For the last 3 weeks the car is again stilling but thankfully i put in park and it starts up again... This problem should get resolved... Tons of people having this same issues gmc should be embarrassed of this situation and fix it or at least try... The people at the dealership at the service desk themselves are tired of hearing people screaming at them about all this issues.. |
