Consumer Description

THE STEERING IS BECOMING PROGRESSIVELY DIFFICULT PARTICULARLY AT LOW SPEEDS. IT APPEARS TO ALMOST LOCK UP. I CONTACTED GMC BECAUSE THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS VERY THING AND IT IS QUITE COSTLY TO REPAIR. GMC REFERRED ME BACK TO THE DEALER. THIS IS A DANGEROUS DEFECT IN THIS VEHICLE AND IS A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE IS CAUGHT UNABLE TO STEER THEIR MOVING ACADIA WITH DISASTEROUS CONSEQUENCES. I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT WITH A HISTORY OF THIS PROBLEM FROM 2014 THIS CAR WOULD NOT HAVE LEFT THE DEALERS LOT WITH THE POTENTIAL OF THIS ISSUE YET I PURCHASED IT JUST LAST YEAR. WHAT DO I DO NOW? I SEE THAT I AM THE 129TH OWNER TO COMPLAIN....GMC SHOULD OWN THIS ISSUE AND REPAIR/RECALL IT IMMEDIATELY.
