Consumer Description
7/12/15 CINCINNATI, OHIO JUST AS OTHERS HERE, I WAS NOTIFIED BY THE TECH THAT THE STEERING GEAR/RACK AND PINION ASSEMBLY REQUIRED REPLACEMENT DUE TO POWER STEERING FLUID LEAK. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THIS WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY AND WOULD COST $1200 AND ONLY THE POWER STEERING PUMP HAS BEEN RECALLED IF STEERING FAILS WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THERE SEEMS TO BE MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE WITH THE 2011 GMC ACADIA. PLEASE CONSIDER TAKING THE TIME TO INVESTIGATE THESE PARTICULAR COMPLAINTS. IT VERY ALARMING TO BE INFORMED THAT A REOCCURRING ISSUE WILL NOT BE RESOLVED UNLESS THE POWER STEERING FAILS WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. IT'S ALSO CONCERNING THAT SEVERAL CONSUMERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE WITH POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKAGE AND MALFUNCTIONING STEERING GEAR/RACK. THIS IS A OBVIOUSLY A CONSISTENT COMPLAINT AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED.
