NHTSA Complaint #11372619 — 2009 GMC ACADIA

THE VEHICLE STARTED GIVING US PROBLEMS. WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEEDS (25 - 30 MPH) THE MOTOR WILL START TO SHUTTER OR JUMP AROUND. AFTER TAKING IT OT A LOCAL DEALERSHIP WE FOUND THAT THE ISSUE IS A THE TIMING CHAIN. I ALSO DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THIS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM BETWEEN 120,000 AND 200,000 MILES. GM ONLY OFFERED AN EXTENSION UP TO 120,000 MILES. THIS IS A COSTLY REPAIR THAT WE CAN NOT AFFORD. GM KNOWS THIS IS A CONTINOUS PROBLEM BUT REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSABILITY FOR IT. I AM GETTING A P0007 CODE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME! I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL GM CUSTOMER FOR 20 PLUS YEARS. MOST RECENTLY I HAVE BEEN CONSIDERING LEAVING THEM FOR ANOTHER MANUFACTURER SINCE THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME BEING SCREWED OVER BY THEM IN THE PAST 3 - 4 YEARS.
