NHTSA Complaint #11192527 — 2011 GMC TERRAIN

I WAS DRIVING AND MY VEHICLE TOTALLY SHUT DOWN.I HAD STOPPED TO MAKE A RIGHT HAND TURN. AS SOON AS MY TURN WAS COMPLETE; IT SHUT DOWN.AND WOULD NOT RESTART I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED HOME.PREVIOSLY TO THIS IT WOULD STALL, AND I WOULD HAVE TO PUT IT IN NUETRAL TO RESTART IT. THEN NEXT DAY I HAD IT TOWED TO BE SEVICED THINKING IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP. GOT THE CALL FROM MECHANIC TELLING ME THE PROBLEM IS THE TIMING CHAIN BROKE AND HAS CAUSED SERIOUS ENGINE DAMAGE...... PISTON AND VALVES TORN ALL UP..... OBVIOUSLY A HUGE PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE MODEL. I HAVE READ SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE IN REGARDS TO THIS MODEL. MY TERRAIN ONLY HAS A LITTLE OVER 100,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE TO PAY $5,000. TO HAVE A REBUILT MOTOR PUT IN IT...... SHAME ON GMC FOR PUTTING SO MANY OF US CUSTOMERS IN DANGER OF BEING SERIOUSLY INJURED. AND CAUSING US TO PAY FOR THIS PROBLEM; THAT THIS VEHICLE OBVIOUSLY HAS. I'M SURE THE MECHANIC SHOPS LOVE SEEING US TOWING OUR JUNK TERRAINS COME ROLLING IN. THEY ARE MAKING SOME SERIOUS MONEY ON REBUILDING MOTORS THAT SHOULD NEVER BE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS.... COME ON WITH RECALLS PLEASE... I CAN'T AFFORD THIS EXTRA EXPENSE.
