NHTSA Complaint #10818255 — 2008 GMC ACADIA

THE TRANSMISSION IN MY 2008 GMC ACADIA IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER WITH CODES PO752 AND PO700 WHICH ARE THE SHIFT SOLENOID AND THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM. I WAS STUCK IN FIRST GEAR DRIVING THE TRUCK. THE NHTSA REFERENCE #10052215 AND TSB REFERENCE #SB-13120 EXPLAINS THE EXACT PROBLEM THAT OCCURRED WITH MY TRUCK. GMC AND THE DEALER ARE SAYING THAT I HAVE TO PAY APPROX. $2500.00 WHICH IS A 65% TO 35% SPLIT WITH THE DEALERSHIP ( MINE BEING THE 65%). I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR A SAFETY ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN CLEARLY IDENTIFIED BY THE NHTSA. I AM JUST ANOTHER DISSATIFIED CUSTOMER WITH GM AND WOULD LIKE TO ADD MY EXPERIENCE AND TRUCK PROBLEM TO YOUR DATA BASE. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST MONTH OR SO. ALSO, THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL THAT GM HAS SENT OUT ON THE WAVE PLATES LOCATED IN THE TRANSMISSION. WHICH THEY HAVE EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 10 YEARS OR 120000 MILES. THE WAVE PLATES ARE BEGINNING TO WEAR CAUSING PREMATURE DEBRIS IN THE TRANSMISSION CAUSING THE SOLENOIDS TO STICK. ALTHOUGH THE DEALER IS SAYING THE WAVE PLATES ARE NOT WORN.
