Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON MY WAY HOME ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE AC WAS NOT COLD. WHEN WE GOT HOME THE BELT WAS SMOKING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. WE RECENTLY BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A GMC DEALERSHIP AT JUST UNDER 39K MILES. ONLY OWNED THE CAR FOR MAYBE 4 MONTHS. TURNS OUT THE CAR NEEDED A WHOLE NEW COMPRESSOR FOR OVER $800. THE COMPRESSOR HAD LOCKED UP. I FIND THIS VERY CRAZY THAT A CAR WITH SUCH LITTLE MILEAGE WOULD HAVE SUCH A BIG PROBLEM. THE CAR HAS BEEN WELL TAKEN CARE OF. READING UP ONLINE I HAVE NOTICED THE 2007 MODELS HAVE HAD AC COMPRESSOR ISSUES. *TR
