 Description of the problemWell it appears that there are several complaints on here about the 2011 terrain stalling. It's been happening to me off and on the past several months. I would be in traffic and it would stall, i would be at a stop light and it would stall, i would go to back out of my driveway and it would stall. I took it in and they can't find anything wrong. Well last night it finally died. Great!! I heard noise when i started the vehicle that sounded like plastic water bottles rubbing together. I had a bag in my front seat so assumed it was nothing. It bucked forward as i put it into drive and stalled. Well... The stalling i'd become accustomed to so i re-started. It seemed fine until i went to accelerate onto the main road... It bucked, started shuttering, and wouldn't go above 5 mph. I barely got it into a parking lot before it died. I counted no less than 5 similar reports on here. I live in the metro detroit area... Had this happened on a highway or during rush hour, i could've been killed. Someone needs to do something before gmc has yet another scandal on their hands or how many people have to be hurt, maimed, or killed before nhtsa gets involved??
