NHTSA Complaint #10955050 — 2011 GMC ACADIA

MY POWER STEERING HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY LOUD AND DIFFICULT TO HANDLE OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. IN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, I HAVE NOTICED NUMEROUS SIMILAR PROBLEMS OTHER INDIVIDUALS WITH THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE HAVE HAD. I AM NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ANY RECALLS TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM IF IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE ACADIA. RECENTLY, APPROXIMATELY A WEEK AGO, I HAVE NOTICED THAT MY "STABILITRACK" IS OFF AND MY VEHICLE TELLS ME TO "SERVICE BRAKE SYSTEM" AND IS NOT BECOMING DIFFICULT TO STOP AND SHAKES QUITE A BIT WHEN DOING SO. I TRAVEL FROM HOME TO TOWN AND OFTEN HAVE TO TRAVEL ON THE INTERSTATE WITH MULTIPLE CARS TRAVELING IN THE SAME DIRECTION AS MYSELF IN CLOSE VICINITY. THE POWER STEERING PROBLEM IS ROUGHLY $1300 TO FIX AND THE BRAKE SYSTEM IS ROUGHLY $800 TO FIX. WHY ARE THERE NOT RECALLS ON THESE PROBLEMS IF IT IS SO COMMON? GMC NEEDS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR CREATING POORLY MADE VEHICLES THAT COST A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY ONLY FOR PEOPLE TO HAVE TO SPEND MORE MONEY ON TO FIX AND MY MILEAGE IS ONLY 72,000 MILES...THESE PROBLEMS NEED TO BE INVESTIGATED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE AN ACCIDENT HAPPENS, LIVES LOST, AND GMC SUED.
