NHTSA Complaint #10705829 — 2012 GMC ACADIA

ON APRIL 2ND WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, WAS STOPPING AT A STOP LIGHT AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE DRIVER'S SEAT JUST JERKED LIKE IT WAS COMING UNBOLTED. IT NOW MAKES A SQUEAKING NOISE AND THE SEAT HAS GIVE TO IT, LIKE ITS NOT BOLTED DOWN REAL TIGHT. I FEAR IT IS VERY UNSAFE. WE DO NOT EVEN DRIVE THE CAR EVERY DAY. THE MAIN REASON I HAVE NOT REPAIRED IT YET IS BECAUSE GM HAS A HISTORY, OF SAYING IT IS NOT A MANUFACTURERS ISSUE. AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE IT AT THE REPAIR SHOP 4 TIMES ALREADY FOR AN AIR BAG ISSUE. THEN HAD TO TAKE IT IN FOR A RUSTED FUSE IN ONE OF THE HEADLAMPS, ANOTHER ISSUE THEY TOLD ME WAS NOT A MANUFACTURERS PROBLEM AND I HAD TO PAY FOR IT. THE ORIGINAL LIGHT BULB WAS STILL INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE. OF COURSE IT WAS A MANUFACTURERS ISSUE. GM ALSO HAS MANY REASONS FOR NOT MAKING RECALLS ON THEIR VEHICLES. SO AT THIS POINT I FEEL I DON'T HAVE MANY PLACES TO TURN. I AM VERY NERVOUS ABOUT DRIVING THIS VEHICLE THAT WE PAY GOOD MONEY FOR AND GM DOES NOT WANT TO TAKE OWNERSHIP FOR THE ISSUES WITH THE PRODUCT. SO I AM LEFT WITH TRYING TO RESEARCH AND SEE IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HAD THIS ISSUE. *TR
