NHTSA Complaint #10492211 — 2007 GMC ACADIA

THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF 2ND GEAR GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND THERE ARE NOW FOUR CODES ALL FOR INTERNAL TRANSMISSION ISSUES. THE CAR IS 4 MONTHS PAST THE 5 YEAR WARRANTY, BUT ONLY 64000 MILES. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. IF THIS TRANSMISSION FAILS WHILE ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, AND IT WILL NOT GO OVER 20 MPH, THE RESULTS COULD BE DEADLY. BY RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE I HAVE FOUND A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT 2007 GMC ACADIAS BETWEEN 50000 AND 80000 MILES HAVING TRANSMISSION FAILURES, BUT YET NO RECALLS. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT GMC IS WELL AWARE OF, THROUGH THEIR OWN ADMISSIONS. WHY IS THERE SUCH A DELAY WAITING FOR A RECALL? ARE ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT FOR A FATALITY BEFORE GMC ADMITS THERE NEEDS TO BE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS? *TR
