NHTSA Complaint #10212682 — 2008 GMC ACADIA

MY 2008 GMC ACADIA SLT2 MODEL HAS WATER LEAKING INTO THE PASSENGER CABIN. THE WATER LEAKS ARE COMING FROM THE SEAT BELT RETRACTION AREA ON THE PILLARS LEADING DOWN FROM THE ROOF AND ALSO ON THE PILLARS AT THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WHERE THE AIRBAGS ARE LOCATED. I ALSO HAVE WATER SOAKING THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER RUGS, IT APPEARS WATER IS RUNNING DOWN THE FIRE WALL FROM THE FRONT POSSIBLY DOWN THE PILLARS. THE ROOD HEADLINER IS GETTING WET AT EACH SPOT WHERE THE ROOF PILLARS MEET THE HEADLINER. I AM QUITE CONCERNED ABOUT WATER AFFECTING THE ELECTRONICS, FUSE BOX, AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MOLD. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL SQUEAKS WHEN I DEPRESS IT AND I ATTRIBUTE THIS TO THE WATER HITTING AREAS IT SHOULD NOT BE. I PURCHASED THIS CAR WITH 1,275 MILES ON IT AS A CERTIFIED PRE OWNED VEHICLE ON 12/12/07 AND I AM BRINGING IT BACK TO THE DEALER TOMORROW 12/26/07 TO SEE WHAT THEY PLAN ON DOING TO REMEDY SAME. I HAVE READ OF VARIOUS OTHER EXPERIENCES WITH WATER LEAKS AFFECTING THE FUSE BOX AND ELECTRONICS FOR OVERALL OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. I FEEL UNSAFE. I'VE READ SOMETHING ABOUT A TSB # 07-08-57-002A BUT I DO NOT SEE IT LISTED ON YOUR SITE, I WILL LOOK FURTHER. *TR
