NHTSA Complaint #11257514 — 2017 GMC ACADIA

AFTER 2 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP OF A NEW GMC ACADIA MY SUV WOULD NOT SHUT OFF ONCE I PARKED MY CAR. IT WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DETECT THAT I SHIFTED INTO PARK AFTER ARRIVING AT MY DESTINATION. ALL THE ELECTRONICS WOULD CONTINUE TO RUN. I WOULD HAVE HAVE TO STAY IN THE CAR AND PLAY WITH THE SHIFTER UNTIL THE COMPUTER FINALLY READ THAT IT WAS IN PARK. AFTER TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP THE SUV WAS FIXED WITH AN NEW PART THAT SEEMS TO HAVE RESOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR NOW BUT AS FAR AS I AM AWARE GMC IS STILL DOESN'T KNOW WHY THE PROBLEM IS BEING CAUSED SO I AM WAITING TO SEE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. AFTER GETTING IT FIXED NOW MY VEHICLE GIVES ME ANOTHER WARNING EVERY TIME MY "AUTO ENGINE OFF" IS ACTIVATED AT WHEN I COME TO A STOP. NOW I CONTINUOUSLY GET "STEBILITITRC" WARNING EVERY TIME I STOP. THEY FIXED ONE PROBLEM AND NOW I HAVE ANOTHER. IT IS MY FAMILY CAR SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE IT IS SAFE BUT GMC DOESN'T SEEM TO KNOW WHATS WRONG OR HOW TO FIX IT EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE AWARE OF MANY ACADIAS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.
