Vehicle was southbound on county road and attempted to make a right turn at the intersection, when the car struck the South embankment of the T intersection, as driver was unable to navigate the turn. None of the side or front airbags in the car deployed as a result of the crash. I am also unsure if the seat belt had operated correctly (seat belt was being worn at the time of the crash). The driver's head hit the side window and as a result he sustained a head injury and an eye injury resulting in optic nerve damage and complete loss of vision in the eye. I understand there were problems with the airbags on these vehicles with a possible recall issued. I do have all the corresponding accident reports, medical reports, etc.

I've had my GMC Acadia for about 4 years now. I initially (within 30 days of purchase) had issues with the window motor because my windows weren't going up when pressing the buttons on either side up front. Carmax fixed the issue. Well, I'm still having the same problem today except the passenger side button works occasionally to roll up the front window. The driver side button works fine for the driver side window and both of the rear windows. It doesn't work to roll up the front passenger side window. This happens whether my vehicle is parked or in motion.

My car has been leaking inside due to manufacturer defect with the seal of the windshield and in top and causing electrical issues for car one example transmission control module and etc

- Terre Haute, IN, USA

This car has leaked since the day I bought it. I have taken it to the dealership I bought it from multiple times. The last time they looked at it they told me that there was a leak but they could not find where it was. My amp has shorted out due to all the water and I can imagine what's next. I am so scared to drive my car because of what could go out next. I wish GMC would do something about all of our issues with the same water leak! I am getting pretty tired of getting rained on inside my car.

- Newton, KS, USA

The sunroof leaks in the front driver seat, passenger, and water comes out of the air vents in the back seat as well as the dvd player and air bags. The battery will not hold a charge and now with a new battery the car stalls when trying to start it. The car was parked in my driveway. The water leak happened in December 2018.

Takata recall it keeps shutting completely down in the middle of highway and this affects everything steering, complete loss of power to vehicle. No codes to indicate something is wrong !!!! extremely dangerous this has continued to occur even after parts have been replaced brand new. More than 5 times already. This will most certainly lead to death. I have 3 children with me at all times. That's 4 lives that could be lost because of this problem!!!!. we have been extremely lucky because it has shift down in the middle of the night and bridges where there is nowhere to get on the side but remain in the lanes where traffic is 70 mph and up!!!! this needs to be recalled immediately!!!!

- Amarillo, TX, USA

This has been the most unsafe car I have ever owned. I can not even trade it in the get a safer car. We have come so close to having many accidents with this car. The steering just freezes up the engine will just shut down will driving. We have had the transmission replaced once and not it needs replaced again. We are not hard on our cars..I just hope it does not come down to having a accident before someone sees how bad this car is.. this happens off and on all the time hard to put the dates and times down when this happens, we take into a dealer and it does not happen with them or the cost is just crazy.

- Batesville, IN, USA

The vehicle is having issues with transmission, there is a recall on other vehicles of the same make and model in a large range of years. The recall is a transmission solenoid. However because under the VIN number it does not show there is a recall this will not be fixed free by dealership. This is very dangerous because it happens randomly while driving.

- Tampa, FL, USA

The vehicle turns off abruptly while driving. The vehicle as turned off in a parked-idling position, rolling at five mph, and even between 60-70 mph. Most of the time when the car shuts down, you are not able to restart the car without removing the key out of the ignition and inserting it to the on position cycling that motion four to five times. I have researched and spoken to other owners with the same make, model, and year as I have and they are dealing with the same issue. I am certain I am not the only complaint regarding this issue. I am worried about the safety for my family and myself because as mentioned before, this happens at random. This is copied and pasted from a previous post because I have the exact same issue. No accident so far because I was able to get off highway safely while car stalled at 70 mph.

My 2008 GMC Acadia began displaying service air bag and turning off the passenger airbag intermittently when a passenger was in the front passenger seat due to the wiring harness under the passenger seat. After a few months it now stays on all the time. GMC said it's not under a recall but I have read several complaints about it with the same year make and model stating it's a recall this happens when in motion and while stoped

- Dalzell, SC, USA

This is the worst viechle we have every bought. You name it an it has gone wrong. Transmission twice, timing, power steering, tailgate, we have never pulled anything with our car. When it rains the steering locks up.. one minute we are going 70 and bam the car turns off. I can keep going. GMC pretty much just said oh well. This have happened so many times I lost track.

The contact mentioned that the battery was moist due to the water. The vehicle was taken to mauer Buick GMC (1111 mn-110, inver grove heights, mn 55077), but was not diagnosed due to the diagnostic fee. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic and the contact was informed that the radio amplifier needed to be replaced; however, the cause of the leak was not determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 164,000.

This car came with a 30 day and/or 1000 miles warranty. Within a week pass the warranty it started. The radio illumination started to go out we would have to tap on it to get it to turn on so we could see the time etc. Then it would not come back on at all and all chimes went away., stopped working altogether. No turn single indicator, seat belts, back up warning, door ajar etc. The passenger side air bag indicator would say no one when someone was sitting in it and while driving blink between the two. Also air bag needs maintance indictor in dash will flash while driving. Park assistant on and off will flash while driving. The steering will move in itself while driving and around bends/turns in the road and worsening on highway! to the point I do not take my children on. There is also a faint burn smell around front floor.I decided to take it to the local advanced auto parts store and have them hook it up to see why I lost my radio, steering etc. They tell me that it was a dead battery cell and that my battery is located in the floor of this vehicle behind the passenger seat. By the way this vehicle does not have a sunroof all the windows go up tight as well. I called my mechanic who I've known for years my family has went to him as well and asked him to assist me in the battery issue. So we get there he opens the floor behind my seat and we discovered the battery is underwater dark sludgy water! the battery is replaced after a very unprofessional and disrespectful experience with this particular establishment by now I am at my wits end. I've exhausted all efforts with them! I paid to have a GMC certified mechanic run diagnostic on these issues at hand and to my thinking they determined to be flood and/or water damage and would need further diagnostics. However puzzling the VIN is clean and no recent or active recalls. I am barely into this contract 3 months!
