NHTSA Complaint #11204372 — 2013 GMC TERRAIN

OUT OF NOWHERE MY CAR JUST DIED WHEN I GOT TO WORK, AND THEN AGAIN TWICE ON MY WAY HOME. I TOOK IT TO GET TESTED THE NEXT DAY AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TIMING CHAIN. I DROVE IT 3 BLOCKS TO A DEALERSHIP, AND ON THE WAY THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND HEARD A LOUD NOISE. PRIOR TO THIS, NO INDICATOR LIGHTS OF ANY KIND CAME ON, NO STRANGE NOISES, NO WARNING WHATSOEVER. DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE. WITH ONLY 92,000 MILES ON VEHICLE, MY ENGINE IS NOW RUINED (WITH NO WARNING AT ALL), AND I HAVE TO COME UP WITH THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX IT. HOW HAS THIS NOT BEEN A RECALL SITUATION AT THIS POINT GIVEN ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME THING - SUDDEN ENGINE ISSUES RESULTING IN ENGINE REPLACEMENT WITH LESS THAN 100,000 MILES. GM PLEASE DO SOMETHING TO MAKE THIS RIGHT.
