NHTSA Complaint #11310031 — 2017 GMC ACADIA

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT TROUBLE SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN JUNE 2017. FIRST, THE CAR CAME WITH THE WRONG DOOR HANDLE ON ONE OF THE DOORS THAT TOOK 3 MONTHS TO FIX BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP SCREWED UP THE PAINT ON THE DOOR AND HAD TO PAINT PRACTICALLY THE WHOLE CAR. AND INITIALLY THE DEALERSHIPS AND GMC CORPORATE GAVE ME THE RUNAROUND WITH WHO WAS PAYING FOR THE BILL WHICH THE CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH. THEN THE CAR HAD A SHIFT TO PARK ISSUE IN JULY 2019 WHICH GMC WOULD NOT REPLACE AT THEIR COST EVEN THOUGH THEY RELEASED A NOTICE TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENTS ABOUT IT BECAUSE A NUMBER OF PEOPLE WERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE BUT NEVER ISSUED A TRUE RECALL NOTICE BECAUSE THEY WANTED THE CONSUMER TO GET STUCK WITH THE BILL. AND SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH MY MIRRORS NOT STAYING PROGRAMMED AND THE AIR VENTING AUTOMATICALLY SWITCHING TO LETTING AIR IN FROM THE OUTSIDE WITHOUT ME CHANGING IT. THEN MY CAR BATTERY STARTED GOING OUT FEBRUARY 2020 WHICH SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING IN LESS THAN 3 YEARS OF THIS CAR BEING PURCHASED. AND NOW MY RADIATOR (WHICH IS ESTIMATED AT CLOSE TO $1,000 TO REPLACE) IS LEAKING; AGAIN THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING THIS SOON UNLESS THIS CAR IS A LEMON. GMC WON'T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY OF IT WITH THIS CAR AND THIS IS MORE PROBLEMS THAT ANYONE SHOULD EVER HAVE WITH A CAR WITHIN 3 YEARS OF PURCHASING IT BRAND NEW UNLESS IT IS A LEMON CAR WHICH AT THIS POINT, I THINK MINE IS.
