NHTSA Complaint #10906437 — 2008 GMC ACADIA

I NOTICED A LEAK IN MY DRIVEWAY UNDER MY 2008 ACADIA. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP SO THEY COULD FIND OUT WHERE IT WAS LEAKING. THEY FOUND THE ENGINE LEAKING IN SEVERAL PLACES INCLUDING THE FRONT COVER. IN ADDITION TO THE ENGINE LEAKING, THEY ALSO FOUND THE WATER PUMP TO BE LEAKING AND IN NEED OF BEING REPLACED. WHILE PUTTING NEW SEALS IN THE ENGINE, THEY FOUND THAT THE TIMING CHAINS WERE SHOWING SIGNS OF WEAR AS WELL. ALL IN ALL, THE CAR NEEDED SEVERAL SEALS REPLACED, THE TIMING CHAINS REPLACED, THE WATER PUMP REPLACED, AND THE POWER STEERING PUMP REPLACED. THE CAR ONLY HAS 73000 MILES ON IT!
