Consumer Description

I AM REQUESTING A RECALL ON 2008 GMC ACADIA'S (THROTTLE BODY). I HAVE A 2008 GMC ACADIA THAT IS EXPERIENCING MAJOR ISSUES. THESE ISSUES INCLUDE SPEED REDUCING IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION WITH MY (XXX) YEAR OLD SON IN THE CAR. THE PANEL DISPLAYED A RED MESSAGE "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL". WENT A FEW BLOCKS FURTHER WHEN THE CAR SHUT OFF COMPLETELY ON A BUSY STREET; POLICE PUSHED ME OFF THE MAIN STREET TO A LESS POPULATED SIDE STREET. MESSAGES DISPLAYED ON PANEL "'TRACTION CONTROL REDUCING POWER". I'M CONCERNED NOT ONLY FOR MY SAFETY BUT CONCERNED ABOUT THE MANY OTHER CUSTOMERS OF GMC WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE (SIMILAR ISSUES FOUND ON THE INTERNET/BLOGS). MY SON AND I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED IF NOT KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS FAULTY PART. I TRUST THAT GMC WILL DO THE RIGHT THING AND RECALL THIS ITEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED. *TRPARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
