![]() ![]() This happened during the intense heat wave this summer (tennessee summer 2022) and my air conditioning failed, causing incredibly hot climate conditions in the car, which I had no substitute that I could drive during 100 degree weather. I am lucky I was able to maintain control of the vehicle on an interstate highway.Īir conditioning compressor failed, took to a gm dealership service center and was informed that the ac compressor failed at a weld joint, most likely due to an improper weld. All I know is that for a 25,000 k car, it's dangerous. The dealership is no help, they have the actual codes but won't provide them or tell me what's wrong. I am now wondering if the transmission isn't going out at 47,363 odometer miles. The car is now doing the same thing, but I noticed it happened an incline, then realized it happened the 1st and 2nd time on a decline. ![]() My husband replaced the ignition coil and spark plugs thinking that it was the problem, well over 200. They told me it would be 160 to have it hooked up to diagnostics, that if it isn't covered by warranty it is a customer assumed cost. I called the dealership who told me onstar provided the stabilitrak code for it. Service stabilitrak light came on, abs light and traction control light came on. I got it off to the side of the road, I thought my car was going to flip over the brakes locked down so hard. I was driving on the interstate at posted limit of 60 when brakes began locking up on me. ![]() This is the 3rd time this has happened in our vehicle, my second complaint here. He can't work like he used to, so I am picking up the slack, please help us. I work two jobs, since my husband got sick with covid-19 last year and spent 10 days on a ventilator. My local dealership is doing everything they can, but I am getting frustrated, because sometimes they have a loaner car and sometimes they don't. My husband said, and I quote, "I will bleed through my eyes before I buy another chevy" end quote. Even if I get my car back, I will be terrified to drive it. Each time there was no warning at all, no lights, noises or anything. In any of these events I could have either died or killed someone else. ![]() Each time I narrowly missed hitting other people and once almost got run over by a gasoline tanker. It is currently at the dealership, and I was told that they can't figure out what's wrong with it? each time it has locked up, I have been in traffic, once doing 70 mph highway, once doing 60 mph highway I managed to pull off but then blocked an on ramp to a bridge on a highway, once going uphill in town at 35 mph. They put a rush on it as it was right before christmas, two days after christmas it broke down again. Dealership said it was the abs module and a valve, replaced those. Six weeks later it failed the same way again, had it towed. Mechanic then said the master cylinder was binding up on the inside and it was replaced. They said they couldn't find problem, I told them to drive exact same route, they did, it locked up again. The day the car was released back to me, it broke down, required towing 3 miles after I left the dealership. The 1st repair, dealership told me that it was a corroded fuse block. This time the transmission didn't go into limp mode it just shut down. The brakes lock up without warning and the traction control error light and stabilitrak error light come on. This is the second complaint I have filed, but it is the 3rd time my car has been at the dealership for the same thing. I also explained that my next step would be to find a lawyer. I wonder how many people have died from this and it just wasn't caught that this problem caused it. I pointed out that if the dealership can't find the problem then GMC needs to step up because I still have 3 years left to pay for this car and that eventually there either have already been others who've died or there will be in the future, because unless this car is defective, it can't be the only one like this. When I asked him what happens if this still doesn't fix it, he said that that situation was to unheard of to consider. The manager said they are running out of ideas and parts to replace. This includes, coil pack, plugs, master cylinder, fuse box, abs module and related pressure valve and brake switch. 00 in new parts, this doesn't count the labor cost. I got a call from the dealership telling me they are replacing the brake booster. They sent their tow truck and as of today the car has now been in their possession for 3 weeks. I was in fact on the phone with the dealership when it happened. The brakes locked up in the parking lot at my bank, I noticed the signs that it was about to lock up and pulled into the parking lot before it threw a code. I am making after almost 6 months, most of which my car has been in the dealership. This is the either 5th or 6th complaint for this vehicle. ![]()
