NHTSA Complaint #10588024 — 2008 GMC ACADIA

BOUGHT THIS LIFE ALTERING MESS OF A VEHICLE IN JUNE 2013 WITH 77K MILES. SINCE THAT TIME A WIDE SPECTRUM OF ISSUES HAVE AROSE AND COST ME FOR THAN JUST MONEY. WINDSHIELD WIPER QUIT WORKING AND NEEDED TO BE FIXED (I NOW SEE THAT WAS A RECALL) CONSTANT ELECTRIC ISSUES IN USING BEEPING, LIGHTING UP AT INAPPROPRIATE TIMES, NOT REGISTERING A GROWN ADULT IN PASSENGER SEAT. ALSO, LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID. GM DID COVER THAT CHARGE WHICH WAS NO HELP WITH THE REAR END THAT HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF NEARLY $3000. TRANSMISSION STILL (BEFORE LEAK "FIXED") AND AFTER WILL READ IDLE TRANSMISSION HOT AT MANY TIMES. LEAKING WATER WHEN WE RECEIVE HEAVY RAINS. LEAKING COMES FROM DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG "LABEL") I HAVE BEEN FINANCIALLY STRAPPED BECAUSE OF THIS VEHICLE I HAD WORKED AND SAVED SO HARD FOR JUST TRYING TO KEEP MY JOB! I NEED MY VEHICLE TO WORK AND MY LIFE IS AT RISK WHEN I'M FORCED TO GET BEHIND THE WHEEL BECAUSE OF THESE ISSUES THAT GM IS AWARE OF. WITH THE MONEY I'VE SPENT (I'M A SINGLE WORKING MOTHER WITH TWO YOUNG SONS) BECAUSE OF GM TURNING A BLIND EYE I AM IN DIRE NEED OF THE PROPER RESOLUTION TO THIS YEAR LONG DEVASTATION OF PREVENTABLE EVENTS. PLEASE ASSIST ME IN THIS FORE I'M UNABLE TO GO FURTHER WITH CONTINUING TO FIX PROBLEMS THAT THOUSANDS OF OTHER OWNERS ARE HAVING WITH THE SAME VEHICLE. THANK YOU. IN 2011 MY CHILDREN AND MYSELF LOST OUR HOME TO A DEVASTATING FLOOD THAT ROCKED OUR CITY AND AS OF FEB 2014 WE WERE FINALLY ABLE TO MOVE OUT OF THE CAMPER AND GET A HOME. I CANNOT PREVENT A FLOOD AND ALL THE PAIN IT CAUSED MYSELF AND MY CHILDREN BUT I WILL NOT CEASE TO FIGHT FOR WHAT IT RIGHT. THAT IS REPLACING MY VEHICLE WITH EQUAL, RELIABLE SAFE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY! AFTER ALL, THIS WAS COMPLETELY PREVENTABLE AND SHOULD'VE BEEN FIXED BEFORE NOW. PLEASE HELP ME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR
