GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Dec 13, 2009.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE . i opened my tailgage today, 12/13/09, to put some items into my trunk. i leaned in to get them situated & secure when suddenly the liftgate slammed down on my lower back, trapping me against the inside of my trunk. i was unable to lift the gate and had to slither out onto the ground, at which point the liftgate completely closed. i reopened the liftgate, unsure of what had happened, and woosh! it slammed shut again. the liftgate will not stay up, and clearly the sensors that are supposed to detect objects impeding it's closure are not working. i have two small children who often get items out of the trunk - such as jackets or umbrellas - and if this had happened to them, it would have been their head or neck that got caught. i brought the car into lehmer's gmc in concord ca this morning after visiting the doctor who looked at my swollen lower back. they told me since i wished to file a claim with gmc -- not for compensation, simply to have official written notice that this is a dangerous occurrence -- that they would not repair the liftgate and would have to give it back to me still damaged and dangerous. i'm quite surprised that they would return a potentially dangerous vehicle to a customer. my lower back is currently swollen and sore. i've called my doctor's office to request an appointment for tomorrow morning when they open and i will be taking the car into concord gmc for service. *tr.1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 5191 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on June 12, 2010.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY . vehicle has automatic, power assisted rear hatch back door opener. when it operates properly, the door closes slowly, using the struts for downward resistance. now however, the hatch will open, but then abruptly shut, often with great force due to the weight of the door. the force is great enough to cause harm, and possible death to a small person. this is a full sized suv, and the rear hatch includes the door and glass, and is very heavy by itself. 2nd. item - this vehicle has remote tire pressure readings and displays a warning on the dash if a tire pressure gets too low. the problem is the device does not reflect the proper tire, it will indicate the front left tire is too low, when in actuality, it is the rear left. thus, the device does not work, which would lead someone to drive around with a very low rear tire, thinking all tires were fine, because when they checked the front tire that was shown to be low, it was actually ok. this needs to be correctly reporting the right tire. *tr.Mileage was 46422 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Feb 10, 2011.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with STEERING . i own a 2009 gmc acadia fwd slt-1, the vehicle was purchased new. we had minor issues with the vehicle and until recently, were very satisfied with the build quality, performance, and the vehicle overall. while en-route to pick up our kids, the power steering appeared stiff. there was no power assist of the steering at low / idle engine speeds, which made slow maneuvering extremely difficult, if not impossible. the performance of the power steering became worse and worse, to the point where my wife felt unsafe driving the vehicle. she was uncomfortable turning at intersections, and maneuvering in slow-speed conditions such as parking lots. we immediately scheduled a service appointment with our local dealership. the service team advised us that the steering pump needed to be replaced. the dealership declined to repair the vehicle at their cost because it was no longer under warranty. the vehicle was purchased on 9/30/2008; it is only two and half years new with 46,491 miles. it is disappointing that the vehicle would require such a repair. you may or may not be aware that this defect with the power steering pump is being reported by many acadia owners. in addition, there is an issue with the steering rack that was documented in a service bulletin. we informed the service area of the unusual noises but they stated that there is no clear connection with this repair. at this time, they recommended replacing the steering pump at a cost of $522.16. this is clearly a design/manufacturing part issue; gm should publish a service alert to warn owners of this known issue that can lead to serious injury if failure occurs. *tr .Mileage was 46000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on May 02, 2011.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . the headlight went out and gmc quoted me at approximately $120 to replace. husband attempted to replace it but you had to take off the wheel in order to get to the actual light. i gave gmc the go ahead to replace and they called me back and told me that the wiring had melted and that it would now be over $300 to do it. i told them no and made a complaint. they called me a few days later telling me they would do it but i had to pay $50 deductible (assuming they went through some type of warranty). it eventually became a recall and i am now looking into getting reimbursed for my $50. noticed my car started over heating and took it into a mechanic friend, let us know that the water pump needed to be replaced this was at approx 45,000 miles. i did my research and the gmc warranty covered the cost. at approximately 56-57,000 miles the car started making a whining noise when driven slow or first thing in the morning when it was cold. took it in to gmc to get it checked out and it turns out that the steering rack had a leak on each side of the wheels and pinions, and power steering pump needed to be replaced. quote almost $1500 dollars. i could not afford that price so took it back to my mechanic to see if it would be cheaper. he ended up replacing the pinions and rack but said the pump did not need to be replaced and ended paying $600 out of pocket. i'm hoping that gmc will see that many of us are having the same problem and will make it a recall. i will not be buying anymore gmc vehicles. all i want is a reliable car that won't break the bank. *kb.Mileage was 40000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on May 02, 2011.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . the headlight went out and gmc quoted me at approximately $120 to replace. husband attempted to replace it but you had to take off the wheel in order to get to the actual light. i gave gmc the go ahead to replace and they called me back and told me that the wiring had melted and that it would now be over $300 to do it. i told them no and made a complaint. they called me a few days later telling me they would do it but i had to pay $50 deductible (assuming they went through some type of warranty). it eventually became a recall and i am now looking into getting reimbursed for my $50. noticed my car started over heating and took it into a mechanic friend, let us know that the water pump needed to be replaced this was at approx 45,000 miles. i did my research and the gmc warranty covered the cost. at approximately 56-57,000 miles the car started making a whining noise when driven slow or first thing in the morning when it was cold. took it in to gmc to get it checked out and it turns out that the steering rack had a leak on each side of the wheels and pinions, and power steering pump needed to be replaced. quote almost $1500 dollars. i could not afford that price so took it back to my mechanic to see if it would be cheaper. he ended up replacing the pinions and rack but said the pump did not need to be replaced and ended paying $600 out of pocket. i'm hoping that gmc will see that many of us are having the same problem and will make it a recall. i will not be buying anymore gmc vehicles. all i want is a reliable car that won't break the bank. *kb.Mileage was 40000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Dec 12, 2012.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with STEERING . when trying to steer the vehicle below 5 mph's (engine below 1200 rpm), the steering wheel will lock up and is very hard to steer. my wife had this happen to her the first when she was pulling into our driveway (thankfully it did not happen in the city). she told me about it, so i then took it to town shopping. it took a while before it happened to me, but finally it did when i was making a tight right hand turn into a menards parking lot. i started the turn and notice instantly that i had no steering. i almost hit another car because i was not able to steer sharp enough or fast enough for the right hand turn. after that, i got in the parking lot and did a little testing. i figured out that the steering was locked, and if the engine was revved over 1200 engine rpm, the steering would come back slightly. after several tries, it did come back. don't know if i can trust it to work all the time??? it appears the problem is worse after the car has been run for a while. with cold temps it works until the steering system warms., then problem is random. scary!!! feels like there is a flow control valve maybe that is in pump, and when it sticks open, the steering is lost at idle speeds. not a good deal... *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 67000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Oct 03, 2012.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with POWER TRAIN . my vehicle began to "jump" when you press on the gas petal. then it had trouble finding a gear. i took it in to the dealership and they said that they could not replicate the problem. i was then coming home from work at 5pm in traffic, going 65 miles an hour in the fast lane and the transmission failed. the car would not move forward or backwards. i was left in the middle of the road in heavy traffic where people could easily hit my car. i was able to guide the car to the side and a tow truck came and towed me into the dealership. they returned the car a week later saying that it was working as designed. i was then driving up to eureka ca and the transmission began to slip. the car would not go past 35 miles per hour. i was on a busy freeway at the time. i took it to repair and they tested it and said that transmission sensors where faulty. there was no dealership there so i drove it back to the san francisco bay area with my hazard lights on at 35 miles per hour with the transmission wining the whole time. the car was returned to me a week later saying that the transmission had been repaired. a couple of weeks later i was driving and felt the transmission slip again. i took it in to the dealership and they said that they could not replicate the problem. i told them that i was sure i was going to be back as this was the pattern of the car. the car is now in the shop after the transmission failed again on a busy street while i was driving. this issue is well documented for this car at around 60,000 but there has been no recall. does someone need to get hurt for a recall to happen? *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 57000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Nov 22, 2011.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with STEERING . the power steering was noisy from around the date of purchase. this problem evolved into intermittent failure of the power steering at both low speeds and at highway speeds. the complaint has not been addressed adequately by general motors even though i am finding many complaints for this same issue. in fact, there is a class action lawsuit pending currently (see below). the vehicle now has approximately 78,000 miles and the intermittent problem persists along with electrical issues on rh side of vehicle. the class action was brought on behalf all persons in the united states who purchased or leased any 2009 through 2012 gmc acadia, 2009 through 2012 buick enclave, or 2009 through 2012 chevrolet traverse vehicles (collectively, ⿿class vehicles⿝) designed, manufactured marketed, distributed, sold, warranted and serviced by general motors, llc and general motors company this action arises out of a uniform and widespread defect in the integral steering system of an entire class of automobiles that poses an extremely unreasonable safety risk not only to the driver and passengers of the vehicle, but to other drivers on the road and pedestrians on the streets. the lawsuit alleges that the steering system in these vehicles are defective because steering may intermittently and drastically fail while the car is in motion (the ⿿steering defect⿝), thus creating a serious safety risk. a copy of the complaint is attached here. complaint: gm 4-1-13 the court denied gm's motion to dismiss and ordered it to answer the complaint. gm motion to dismiss. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 49205 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Dec 14, 2013.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE:SUPPORT DEVICE . the suv was parked in my mom's driveway. i pushed the remote to open the rear power lift gate. i came upon the back of the suv with my 3 year old daughter and the lift gate was up. i went to put something in the trunk when the lift gate collapsed on my head knocking me out and to the ground. luckily, my mom saw what happened, got my husband and made sure my daughter didn't wander in to the road. i was knocked out for a few seconds, but luckily people were around. imagine if it had happened near a busy road or parking lot. we have a 1 year old and a 3 year old. could of been disastrous. so upon spending several hours in the er, i was diagnosed with a concussion. my husband looked at the lift gate, watched it go up to the top, stop and then come crashing closed. it appears it was a complete failure of the rod that opens the lift gate, both pistons or arms that help lift and support the lift gate, and the sensors which should tell the door to immediately open back up. the door came down with such force it could permanently injure or kill a child or senior citizen. we contacted gmc immediately they took down our information regarding the car and incident. took gmc 2 days to call back and go over everything again and 2 more days to get the story from my husband. so 12 days in to this and all they've done is collect the info over the course of 2 calls. they are also telling us that we have to wait another 8 days just to get a future date to have the lift gate inspected by gmc. huh? 20 days and counting with no working lift gate. family of four plus a dog during christmas makes it very difficult. gmc seems more concerned with vacations than there product failure and customer injury. i hope that we can come to some sort of fair resolution and a permanent fix to a potentially lethal problem without going through the legal system. we'll see if gmc does the right thing. *tr the dealer replaced the liftgate supports. updated 07/16/14.1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 40000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Jan 09, 2014.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with POWER TRAIN . while driving thru an intersection with a yield my vehicle suddenly stopped and the engine rpm climbed to around 3500 rpm. the transmission slipped between gears causing a sudden and unexpected slow down.luckily another driver was alert and had to slow down quickly to keep from hitting us as we were merging with traffic.this never happened before and came on without warning.as soon as it happened once it has been happening more often, i brought the vehicle in and the diagnosis was the "wave plates" in the transmission. the mechanic informed me that this transmission had an issue with a part that was not properly heat treated and caused it to fail.i called the gm dealer and they would not warranty because we were just outside the 100,000 mile warranty period. they also stated that they knew there have been many issues with this vehicle but gm has not issued any type of recall.now i need a new transmission at a cost of around 4,000 dollars. i have owned several gm vehicles in the past and gotten well over 250,000 miles with no issues at all. this could have been very serious and caused injuries if the circumstances were different and someone who panicked was involved. i feel that this should warrant a recall and force gm into looking into this further. thank you for your time. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 104000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Sept 20, 2011.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ENGINE . i took my 2009 acadia into the gmc dealer with around 65,000 miles on it after buying it used (1 previous owner) with around 42,000 miles. they told me i had a power steering leak in the rack and pinion and it would cost around $2000 to replace a seal because they have to pull the whole rack off. he told me it would be okay for a while, but eventually it would cause the power steering to go out. after researching, i've seen multiple other acadia owners who have had the exact same problem. i have refused to pay for the repairs because i think this is a safety issue that has effected enough of this model vehicle to warrant a general safety recall. i know of 3 other people in my hometown who have experienced power steering problems with their acadia's, and the gmc dealership acknowledged to me that it is a significant problem with gmc acadia model years 2008-2012. if that's not enough, then i'm not sure what is, but if my power steering goes out while i'm driving, well, let this serve as notice to gmc. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 65000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Jan 01, 2014.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ENGINE . at approximately 90,000 my engine began misfiring. i took it to a local shop where they performed a full tune-up and replaced all of the plugs. however, there were also coils that were bad and had to be replaced. a week later, my check engine light came back on and the acadia was missing again. i took it to another shop where they showed me that the plugs were already charred and needed replaced again, and there was another coil pack that needed replaced. a few days later the check engine light came back on and a co2 sensor was going bad so i replaced it. a few days later the check engine light came back on and the gmc dealer told me 2 of the 3 catalytic converters were bad and needed replaced. my check engine light is still on and i'm just waiting for the thing to explode while i'm driving it. after reading other similar complaints about power steering and engine problems with acadia's, i'm convinced a major investigation into these vehicles and their safety needs to be launched by the gov. now there is an air bag recall and in the past have had headlight recalls, water pump recalls, and who knows what else. the whole fleet should be declared lemons! *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 90000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Jan 13, 2014.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ENGINE . while driving on the highway my service engine soon light started to flash. it stopped so i continued driving until i arrived home. it was diagnosed as premature timing chain wear due to a faulty oil monitor sensor and it was "repaired". the issue has continued to happen since and the vehicle has been returned to the dealership 3 times to attempt repairs. it was at this point that i started to research this vehicle and found out that gm knows of a random misfire issue after engine removal (mind you this was to repair damage due their faulty part to begin with). they don't know how to fix the issue--it can be electrical or you could replace just about every part under the hood and see if that works. but no guarantee that this will fix it as i stated earlier, they don't know what will fix it. i do not feel safe driving my family around in this vehicle any longer. we live in the north--hence the reason for an awd vehicle--and i don't want to get stuck somewhere, in below 0 weather with my children in the vehicle. i now own a very expensive vehicle that i don't drive far as i don't know what it is going to do. to me this is a safety issue and liability that they have tried to sweep under the rug like the rest of their issues of late. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 139000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Feb 23, 2014.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with POWER TRAIN . driving on the highway through the mountains the vehicle would shift into neutral and lose all power. after doing this several times we exited. the check engine light came on and we did not have reverse and the transmission would only remain in 1st gear. after taking to dealer he new exactly what it was before even looking at the vehicle... the shift wave plate for reverse, 1st and 5th gear. if this is such a "known" common problem for this vehicle between 60,000 and 70,000 miles why was there not a recall? losing power on the highway (with my family) 100's of miles from home while driving through the mountains of tn (we live in mi) was very dangerous. finding out this is a common thing for this vehicle is inexcusable for a manufacturer in this day and age to let go without fixing on affected vehicles before it happens. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 69000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Apr 28, 2014.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with STEERING . we were driving in a parking lot and as we began to turn left to park the car, the power steering failed. we had to stop suddenly to avoid a collision. it took incredible arm strength to straighten the car out to leave the parking lot - to return home with the car. when accelerating (higher rpm's) the power steering capability returned. when driving slowly to turn into our driveway, the steering not only failed - but also froze. no amount of arm strength could turn the wheels. this is a serious accident waiting to happen, and after searching online today - i found that this is a systemic issue with this make and model of gmc acadia. i also found that a class action lawsuit has been filed for this same car defect. it is very disappointing that a recall has not been mandated, as this defect causes random steering failure and could be fatal. *js.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 92100 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Apr 29, 2014.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with SEATS . this is in regards to the center row, middle seat belt. my 9 year old was sitting in this seat using the seat belt. i was driving down a hill at roughly 40 mph when the light at the bottom changed so i stopped. my son was leaning a little forward and the seat belt locked up. i told him to lean back and it should unlock. but it did not, it kept clicking like when using a seat belt for a car seat. at which point he became stuck up against the seat and couldn't move his chest. he started panicking so i had to pull over to assist him. i unbuckled the seat belt and let it go in and it locked, completely inside the seat. after pushing in what little slack there was i got it to release and was able to pull it out, but only about 6 inches and then it locked again. i then had to move my child to another seat while on the side of a busy road. the seat belt has remained locked in this position for about 3 weeks. i took the car in last week for an oil change and the recall on the airbags so i asked if they could look at this too. they misquoted us on the price and then proceeded to tell me the only way to fix it was to take the whole seat apart and it would cost roughly $400.00 and insisted there would be no way for this to be for a recall, as they didn't see it as a safety concern. i have to adamantly disagree. a seat belt locking and not locking could be a very dangerous thing in an accident, or even in a sudden stop. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 67000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on May 31, 2014.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE . while emptying out the rear of the vehicle, the lift gate proceeded to descend while i was taking out our suitcases. i was unaware this was happening and my hand was on the right side of the vehicle hatch. the lift gate did not stop when it hit my hand and i immediately pulled away from it catching my finger on the sharp side of the mechanism. it ripped open my middle finger, cutting it to the tendon, requiring a trip to the emergency room. i had to get eleven stitches to close the wound and a tetanus shot. after we arrived home and investigated the problem, we discovered the struts on the lift gate must have been weak to let the hatch descend. the problem is that there is no fail safe when this happens to stop the descent! my brother-in-law also got caught and it took a great deal of muscle to push it up. what would happen if a child got caught in it? i hate to think of the outcome. it would seem to me that this default would be a priority issue to consider. the fail safe should work no matter what. i am concerned this could be a life threatening situation. appreciate any comments you may have on the above incident. *tr.1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 63280 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Mar 02, 2013.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with STEERING . i purchased this vehicle from a gmc dealership on march 1st 2014. the very next day i replaced a headlight (no big deal), a few days later it was veering to the left very hard so i took it back. they said the alignment was off 45 degrees, so they fixed it. 1 month later the steering started locking up when turning at slow speeds. i had it diagnosed by the gm dealership who said it was the rack and pinion, and struts and bearings. i took it to another auto shop who said it was the power steering pump and replaced it, the locking up stopped. they said the rack and pinion were bad but could last a bit longer. a month later the air conditioner was completely out(the very first time i turned it on), and a month later the entire car is whining very loudly which i am assuming is the rack and pinion finally giving out. i have spent 20k on this vehicle and had it for 6 months now. in that 6 months it has been in the shop at least once a month. that is on top of the 3 recalls it has been in for in the 6 month period also. now it has to go back in to fix this rack and pinion. thankfully i purchased an extended warranty, but this steering column is not all covered. i am beyond frustrated and tired of throwing in thousands of dollars when i have had the vehicle a short amount of time, and this replacing of the steering rack is a bit ridiculous since the vehicle does not even have 100k miles on it. i was told it is unsafe to drive, but when i dont have an extra few thousand dollars to throw into it after putting a huge downpayment on it, and having a brand new ford vehicle for 9 years and never having to put a dime into it. i am sick of it. it is wrong that gm put faulty cheap parts into their vehicles. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 78000 miles.

GMC ACADIA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Oct 25, 2014.GMC ACADIA 2009, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with POWER TRAIN . while driving our 2009 acadia at highway speed (75mph) we experienced a sudden rpm spike and lose of acceleration. any attempt to apply gas was just met with rpm with no acceleration. as speed slowed the vehicle lurched and the transmission engaged as we approached 40 mph. the vehicle struggled to maintain this speed and would constantly lunge and lurch trying to change gears to adjust for the speed. the timing was not good for this as we are stationed in germany, and we were an hour from home driving on the autobahn. while we were struggling to stay at the minimum speed (roughly 40 mph), other vehicles are approaching us at autobahn speeds, potentially causing an accident. fortunately, germans are very good drivers and very aware of slower moving vehicles. we were fortunate to have pull off areas to cool the transmission, but our trip took five hours. apparently this is a known issue with the 6t75 transmissions that gm put in the 2007-2009 acadia's. no service bulletins or warnings ever went out to me to let me know about this issue. if i would've received one, i would have been able to catch this earlier and been able to save the transmission from catastrophic failure. the 3-5-r wave plate failed preventing shifting to those gears. i believe gm needs to own up to this and either issue a recall or offer owners with less than 100k miles on their vehicles compensation for the repairs. at a minimum, all acadia/enclave/traverse/outlook owners with 6t75 transmissions need to receive a notification to expect the imminent failure, in order that they may get the 3-5-r wave plate replaced with a properly tempered plate. gm has already identified the reason for the failure, but has chosen not to act in a manner reflecting integrity to their customers. thank you for your time..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 76176 miles.
