Consumer Description
IGNITION COMPLETELY TURNED OFF, I PUSH BUTTON TO TURN ON RADIO AND I HEAR SEVERAL TAP, TAP, TAP, TAP BEHIND MID-DASH RADIO-CD, A.C, HEAT CONTROL UNIT. I'M SURE THE TAP, TAP, TAP, TAP NOISE IS DOOR TO AIR RECIRCULATION/NO RECIRCULATION DOOR THAT SOMEHOW ACTIVATES UNIT ACTUATOR JUST BY TURNING ON RADIO! UNBELIEVABLE! ALSO, WHEN I NEED TO DEFROST WINDSHIELD I TURN TEMP KNOB TO COLD AND THE TAP, TAP, TAP, TAP NOISE HAPPENS! I DO NOT TURN ON A/C COMPRESSOR. AGAIN, UNBELIEVABLE!! THIS IS A DESIGN DEFECT FOR SURE. I'M SURE THAT TO DIAGNOSE AND REPAIR THE STEERING WHEEL, DASH MUST BE REMOVED SO TECH,. CAN GAT TO MIS-DESIGNED PARTS. NO CUSTOMER SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS KIND OF DESIGN DEFECT. I WANT GMC TO OAY TO SOLVE THEIR DESIGN DEFECT!!! THIS DEFECT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I TURN ON RADIO OF DO A COLD DEFROST. PROBLEM HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED OR WHEN NO KEY IN IGNITION.
