2017 GMC ACADIA Unknown Or Other Problems

AFTER PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK AND TURNING IT OFF A 'SHIFT INTO PARK' MESSAGE DISPLAYS ON SCREEN LEAVING THE CAR STILL ON. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN I ALWAYS HAVE MY 3 KIDS WITH ME AT ALL TIMES. WE HAVE TO KEEP MESSING WITH IT UNTIL IT GOES AWAY BEFORE WE CAN SAFELY GET OUT AND FEEL CONFIDENT ITS OK TO LEAVE THE CAR.

THE VEHICLE GIVES A 'SHIFT TO PARK' WARNING ON DASHBOARD AFTER VEHICLE IGNITION BUTTON. THIS WARNING SHOWS UP EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS ACCEPTED TO SHUT OFF. IT TAKES SEVERAL MINUTES AND TRIES TO GET THE MESSAGE TO GO AWAY AND THE VEHICLE TO COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. THE ONLY SUCCESSFUL WAY OF GETTING THE MESSAGE AND VEHICLE TO COMPLETELY SHUT OFF IS BY WIGGLING OR SHAKING THE GEAR SHIFTER UNTIL IT GOES AWAY. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED WITH CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE FOR CONCERNS THAT THE VEHICLE WILL ROLL WITH THE VEHICLE NOT REGISTERING THAT IT IS IN PARK. AFTER RESEARCHING THE VEHICLE ISSUE FURTHER IT HAS BEEN FOUND THAT OTHER OWNERS WITH THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL HAVE HAD THE SAME SHIFT TO PARK MESSAGE AND HAVE HAD THEIR VEHICLE ROLL ON IT'S OWN. THE VEHICLE HAS GONE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE FIXED BUT UNFORTUNATELY BECAUSE MY WARRANTY...

OUR CAR, A 2017 ACADIA, WILL NOT AUTO START, ALARMS GO OFF RANDOMLY, THEFT WARNING COMES ON AND HOOD OPEN WARNING COMES ON EVERY TIME CAR IS STARTED.. OUR DETERMINATION IS THE HOOD LATCH FROM OTHER FORUMS WHICH IS WHAT THE GARAGE ALSO DETERMINED. WE WERE TOLD ONLY TRUCKS WERE BEING REPLACED NOT THE CARS. WE DON'T FEEL THAT THIS IS SOMETHING WE SHOULD BE PAYING FOR SINCE IT IS OUT THERE THAT MANY HAVE THE PROBLEM. THE LATCH CAUSES THE THEFT PROBLEM WHICH EVENTUALLY CAUSES THE CAR NOT TO ADVANCE IN SPEED (CONNECTING TO THEFT) AND COULD CAUSE DEATH ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHEN ALL CARS ARE GOING 60 PLUS AND YOUR CAR WON'T MOVE. SOME PEOPLE WERE UNABLE TO START THEIR CARS. THIS IS MAJOR AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED WITH A RECALL. THIS MIGHT NOT SEEM MAJOR BUT IT CAN BE. WE BECAME LEERY IN DRIVING THE VEHICLE....

THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED TO ME ATLEAST 4 TIMES IN THE LAST 8 MONTHS . I WILL GO TO START MY CAR AND IT WILL SHOW 'NO REMOTE ACCESS ' THEN COMPLETELY SHUT OFF OR DRAIN THE BATTERY . I HA W HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED 3 TIMES AND THEN ONE TIME AFTER 45 MINUTES IT JUST TURNED ON . THIS IS ONLY A 2017 ACDUA ABS I HAVE ONLY HAD IT A YEAR AND A HALF . IT'S HAD LEAKING HEATER FLUID ISSUES AS WELL .

THE SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT SYSTEM FAILED LAST YEAR AND CAUSED THE CAR TO DIE AND LEAVE ME STRANDED. THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY AND THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THE SIDE BLIND ZONE SYSTEM WAS FAULTY AND REPLACED THE MODULE AND SENSORS. A LITTLE OVER A YEAR LATER AND THE SYSTEM IS DOING THE SAME THING. I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE MODULE AND SENSORS. THIS SHOULD NOT BE MY PROBLEM, GMC HAS CREATED A FAULTY SENSOR SYSTEM AND NOW CONSUMERS ARE HAVING TO DISH OUT 700 PLUS DOLLARS FOR THE REPAIR. THERE IS A 'BULLETIN' THAT CONVENIENTLY DOES NOT COVER AL VIN NUMBERS MINE INCLUDED! HOW CAN THAT BE POSSIBLE IF IT'S THE SAME FAULTY SYSTEM? I WOULD LIKE THIS REPAIR TO MADE BY THE MANUFACTURER AND THERE SHOULD BE A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT REGARDING THIS MATTER. THE VEHICLE DIED AS I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING...

ON DECEMBER 29, 2020, I WAS GOING TO VISIT A FRIEND ABOUT 5:30PM. THEY HAVE A DRIVEWAY THAT IS A DOWNWARD SLOPE. I PUT MY CAR (2017 GMC ACADIA DENALI) IN PARK AND TURNED IT OFF. I STEPPED OUT AND LOCKED THE DOORS. I WAS TALKING TO MY FRIEND'S HUSBAND FOR A COUPLE MINUTES, ASKING IF SHE WAS HOME AND IF MY CAR WAS OKAY WHERE IT WAS PARKED. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE HE WAS NOT LEAVING AND WAS BLOCKED IN. I THEN STARTED WALKING TO THE HOUSE. I WAS GOING TO WALK IN THE GRASS AND JUST GO TO THE FRONT DOOR, BUT SINCE IT STARTED TO SNOW, I WALKED DOWN THE DRIVEWAY. MY VEHICLE THEN STARTED ROLLING DOWN THE DRIVEWAY AND KNOCKED ME OVER. IT PROCEEDED TO DRIVE OVER ME. I KNOW I FELL ON MY STOMACH, AS MY HANDS AND KNEES ARE PRETTY BRUISED AND SCRAPED...

MY 2017 GMC ACADIA SHUT OFF LOST ALL POWER FOR A COUPLE MINS AT A BUSY INTERSECTION IN SEPTEMBER 2020. ALL POWER RESTORE AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES AND ATTEMPTS TO RESTART. I TOOK IN TO THE DEALERSHIP HOWEVER THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE. NOW ON THE 28TH OF DECEMBER 2020, THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AGAIN AT THE SAME BUSY INTERSECTION! NO POWER AT ALL! COULD NOT EVEN TURN MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON TO WARN TRAFFIC THAT WAS COMING UP BEHIND ME ON THE HIGHWAY! THE VEHICLE REMAINED LIKE THIS FOR 10-15 MINUTES! COULDN'T EVEN HAVE ANYONE PUSH IT OFF THE ROAD BECAUSE WE COULDN'T SHIFT IT TO NEUTRAL EITHER. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AS GM ADVISED AND THEY STILL COULD NOT DUPLICATE. THE DEALERSHIP TRIED BUT CANNOT MAKE SENSE OF WHY THIS KEEPS OCCURRING RANDOMLY. I HAD MY SMALL CHILDREN IN THE CAR THIS TIME AND WE ARE...

SHIFT TO PARK NOT ENGAGING INTO PARK POSITION,IT WAS STATIONARY

PARK TO SHIFT WARNING WHEN TRYING TO SHUT OFF VEHICLE. PROBLEM "FIXED" 12/28/2108 BUT RESURFACED AGAIN OCTOBER 2020. NOW "OUT OF WARRANTY" MANY POSTS WITH OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCING RECURRING ISSUE. DOES NOT SEEM TO BE A CONSISTENT FIX. NEW SHIFT MECAHNISM, NEW WIRING HARNESS AND "BENDING" THE METAL CONTACT POINT THAT DEPRESSES THE SWITCH TO ELIMINATE THE WARNING "LOCKOUT" ARE THE MOST COMMON FIXES. I BELIEVE THIS WIDESPREAD OF AN ISSUE SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY GMC INSTEAD OF BURDENING OWNERS OF AFFECTED VEHICLES WITH THE COSTS OF "TRYING" DIFFERENT FIXES. THANK YOU

SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE I'VE HAD THE STABILITRAK, PARKING BRAKE, STEERING ASSIST WARNINGS POP UP ALONG WITH LIGHTS FLASHING AND THE CAR REDUCES POWER WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IF YOU RESET THE CODES, ITT STOPS. I'VE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER TO GET IT FIXED AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. I'VE HAD THIS VEHICLE 3 YEARS AND IT'S BEEN NOTHING BUT TROUBLE.

THE 'SHIFT TO PARK' LIGHT COMES ON EVEN THOUGH MY CAR IS ALREADY IN PARK. I HAVE TO SIT THERE AND ROCK MY SHIFT BACK AND FORTH UNTIL THE WARNING LAMP GOES OFF. OTHERWISE I CAN'T TURN MY CAR OFF.

THE "SHIFT TO PARK" WARNING MESSAGE SHOWS UP AND WON'T PERMIT CAR TO BE SHUTOFF. VEHICLE IS STOPPED AND AT REST AND IS PLACED IN "PARK" AS DESIGNATED BY SHIFT LEVER LIGHT AND DASHBOARD INDICATORS, AND THE AUTO DOOR UNLOCK FEATURE ACTIVATED CORRECTLY WHEN PLACED IN PARK. ON 9/21/20, IT TOOK ME ABOUT 10 MINUTES OF TRYING DIFFERENT POSITIONS AND BY PHYSICALLY MOVING VEHICLE TO A DIFFERENT PARKING SPACE . PROBLEM OCCURS SPORADICALLY. THIS SAME PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED A TOTAL OF ABOUT 5 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS BUT NOT AS SEVERE AS THIS LAST TIME. VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY SERVICED 11/2019, WHEN VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY WITH 10,062 MILES FOR THE SAME ISSUE IN WHICH THE DEALER REPLACED A SHIFTER HARNESS. NOW, 9/21/20, 10 MONTHS LATER, AND 12,400 MILES, THE SAME PROBLEM HAS RE-EMERGED. THE VEHICLE IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURING OR ENGINEERING DEFECT.

CAR GIVES "SHIFT TO PARK" NOTIFICATION WHEN CAR IS SHUT OFF EVEN THOUGH IT CLEARLY SHOWS IT IS IN PARK. CAR WILL NOT FULLY SHUT OFF. HAVE TO TURN CAR BACK ON AND WIGGLE SHIFTER OR PUT IT IN REVERSE/DRIVE AND THEN BACK IN TO PARK FOR THE CAR TO FULLY TURN OFF.

WHEN I PARK MY CAR, AND THE GEAR IS IN PARK, WHEN I TRY TO TURN THE CAR OFF, I RECEIVE CONTINUANCE NOTIFICATIONS STATING "SHIFT TO PARK" AND CAN NOT FULLY TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN CONTINUOUS AND AT TIMES CAN TAKE UP TO FIVE MINUTES BEFORE I CAN FULLY SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. THE MOST RECENT EVENT WAS 9/17/2020. I HAVE SEVERAL VIDEOS OF THE ISSUE OCCURRING. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY WILL NOT FIX IT ON THIS VEHICLE SINCE THERE IS NO RECALL AND IS OUT OF BUMPER-TO-BUMPER WARRANTY.

I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE WHEN TRYING PARK MY CAR STATING "ACTION REQUIRED, SHIFT TO PARK". DISPLAY SHOWS CAR IN PARK AND SHIFTING CONSOLE IN PARK. SOMETIMES TAKES ME MULTIPLE TIMES SHIFTING AND RESHIFTING, AND DRIVING BACK AROUND TO GET THE CAR TO SHUT OFF. THIS MORNING TOOK 15 MINUTES OF TRYING TO GET THE CAR TO PARK AND SHUT OFF.

I'M HAVING ISSUES OF GETTING AN ERROR MESSAGE ON MY DASHBOARD OF 'SHIFT TO PARK' WHEN THE SUV IS ALREADY IN PARK. I'VE HAD THIS RANDOMLY OVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS, BUT FIGURED I'D JUST MENTION IT TO THE DEALER AT THE NEXT APPT. GENERALLY, I RESTART IT, MOVE THE GEAR SHIFTER, AND THEN IT GOES INTO PARK. SATURDAY, THE GEAR SHIFTER SHOWED I WAS IN PARK, THE ERROR MESSAGE CAME ON, AND I STARTED ROLLING BACKWARDS! I WAS THANKFUL NO ONE GOT HURT, BUT I'M CONCERNED THAT ONE OF MY KIDS COULD HAVE BEEN BEHIND ME AND THIS HAPPEN. I PUT ON THE BREAK, HAD TO TURN OFF THE CAR, AND THEN RESTART IT, MOVE THE SHIFTER BEFORE IT WOULD RECOGNIZE BEING IN PARK.

I BOUGHT MY 2017 GMC ACADIA ON AUGUST 3, 2020. WHEN I GOT HOME I PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK AND ON THE SCREEN IT SAID "SHIFT TO PARK." I HAD PARKED ON A HILL AND I THOUGHT MAYBE THAT'S WHAT HAD CAUSED IT. SO FOR THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS IT HAS DONE THE SAME THING MULTIPLE TIMES. I AM USUALLY PARKED AND SHIFTING IT INTO PARK. I HAVE BEEN LATE TO WORK BECAUSE I AM CONSTANTLY FIGHTING WITH THE SHIFTER SO MY CAR WILL SHUT OFF. I HAVE GOOGLED IT AND THERE A TON OF REVIEWS SAYING THAT THEY ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS ME. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT THIS. I PAID A LOT OF MONEY FOR MY VEHICLE AND I'M MAKING A PAYMENT ON IT AS WELL. I HAVE TO SMALL CHILDREN AND IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE SOME HAS MADE...

THE VEHICLE DISPLAYS "SHIFT TO PARK" WHEN TURNING OFF VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH THE TRANSMISSION IS ALREADY IN PARK. WE HAVE TRIED MANY TIMES TO RESTART THE VEHCIE AND SHIFT THE VEHICLE. AS DESIGNED, THE KEYS MUST STAY WITH THE VEHICLE, SO THE OCCUPANT EITHER HAS TO LEAVE THE KEYS UNSECURED OR STAY WITH THE VEHICLE. I'VE HAD TO UNHOOK THE BATTERY BECAUSE THE ELECTRONICS WILL NOT SHUT OFF WHEN IN THIS STATE. WE HAVE HAD INSTANCES WHERE SOMEONE HAS TO STAY WITH THE VEHICLE FOR PERIODS OF TIME. AN ONLINE SEARCH SHOWS MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND NO DEFINITIVE FIX.

THE HORN ON MY 2017 GMC ACADIA IS VERY HARD TO PUSH. IT TAKES BOTH HANDS. AND IS STILL VERY HARD TO PUSH. IF I HAD TO ACTIVATE MY HORN TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO IN TIME. AND I HAVE TO TAKE BOTH OF MY HAND OF THE STEERING WHEEL TO PUSH IT. THIS IS A VERY BAD DESIGN AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED.

THE VEHICLE, WHEN PARKED, SHOWS A WARNING THAT STATES"ACTION REQUIRED:SHIFT TO PARK" AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT TURN OFF. THIS HAS LED TO THE VEHICLE DYING IN PARKING LOTS, AT HOME, ONCE WHEN ON VACATION. THE SHIFT LEVER IS IN PARK, THE DASHBOARD SHOWS THAT IT IS IN PARK, AND WHEN THE ENGINE OFF BUTTON IS PRESSED THE VEHICLE WILL NOT TURN OFF AND ASKS THE DRIVER TO SHIFT THE CAR TO PARK, WHERE IT ALREADY IS. THIS HAS BEEN A HAZARD TO OUR FAMILY AND OUR FAMILIES HEALTH AS THE VEHICLE WILL THEN DIE EVENTUALLY BECAUSE THE BATTERY RUNS OUT. IT IS APPARENT THAT THERE IS A SEVERE MALFUNCTION IN THE ELECTRICAL/GEARBOX/COMPUTER SYSTEM NOT RECOGNIZING WHERE THE SHIFTER IS AT THE MOMENT. I WOULD LIKE TO ADD A PHOTO BUT IF I WERE TO TURN THE CAR ON TO TAKE THE PHOTO THE CAR LIKELY WILL NOT TURN OFF,...

CAR WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THAT THE CAR IS IN PARK AND WILL NOT SHUT OFF.

I WILL SHIFT MY CAR TO PARK AND THEN I GO TO SHUT OFF THE CAR AND I GET A MESSAGE THAT POPS UP SAYING "SHIFT TO PARK" I CAN NOT LOCK MY CAR AND WONT SHUT OFF FILLY UNTIL I CAN GET IT TO SHIFT INTO PARK FULLY . VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN I SHIFTED TO PARK IT HAD HAPPENED ABOUT 10 TO 25 TIMES IN THE LAST MONTH

ALTHOUGH IN PARK, THE DASH ALERTS THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE : 'SHIFT TO PARK' THIS ALERT DOES NOT ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO BE SHUT OFF FULLY AS THE RADIO STILL PLAYS, LIGHTS REMAIN IN AND THE DASH REMAINS LIT. HAVE TRIED TO RESTART AND SHIFT INTO DIFFERENT GEARS THEN RETURN TO PARK AS WELL AS ENGAGE THE EMERGENCY BREAK. NOTHING WORKS TO FIX THIS.

PLACE THE VEHICLE INTO PARK. GO TO SHUT VEHICLE OFF AND THE DASH TELLS YOU TO SHIFT TO PARK. YOU HAVE TO KEEP SHIFTING IN AND OUT OF PARK TILL IT REGISTERS ITS IN PARK OTHER THE ELECTRONICS DON'T TURN OFF AND IF NOT PARKED ON LEVEL GROUND VEHICLE WILL ROLL. I PARK IN A PARKING GARAGE AND IF I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN PAYING ATTENTION MY VEHICLE WHEN STARTING TO ROLL COULD HAVE EASILY HIT ANOTHER CAR OR EVEN WORSE A PERSON. MY VEHICLE IS GOING INTO SHOP TODAY SO IF DOCUMENTS ARE NEED I WILL HAVE THEM.

THE VEHICLE WILL SHOW TO BE IN PARK, BUT THE VEHICLE WILL SAY IT IS NOT IN PARK ENABLING ME FROM BEING ABLE TO SHUT THE VEHICLE DOWN. THERE SEEMS TO BE A SHIFT ASSEMBLY ISSUE. I'VE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE 3 MONTHS BUT THIS HAS BECOME A REOCCURRING ISSUE OVER THE LAST WEEK.

WHEN BEING PLACED IN PARK TO TURN OFF VEHICLE, MESSAGE STATES "SHIFT TO PARK". WHEN THIS HAPPENS I AM UNABLE TO LOCK DOORS, PARKING LIGHTS STAY ON AS WELL AS RADIO. IT TAKES SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO GET IT TO NOT READ " SHIFT TO PARK". THIS HAPPENS VERY OFTEN.

MY 2017 GMC ACADIA WITH 40,000 MILES ON IT HAS BEEN SAYING 'SHIFT TO PARK' WHEN I TRY TO TURN IT OFF. THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT TO TURN OFF AND BE SAFELY IN PARK IS TO CONTINUOUSLY TURN IT BACK ON SHIFT TO REVERSE OR DRIVE MOVE THE CAR A FEW FEET AND TRY AGAIN. IT CONTINUES TO TAKE MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE ONLY THING TO 'FIX IT' GMC CLAIMS IS TO REPLACE A LEVER AND THAT TAKES 5-6 HOURS AT 135$ AN HOUR AND 2 150$ PARTS. IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AS YOU EITHER CANNOT GET THE VEHICLE INTO PARK AND HAVE IT SAFELY STUCK OR IT WILL CONTINUE TO STAY ON AND POSSIBLE ROLL AWAY. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF FORUMS AND POSTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND EVEN THE PEOPLE WHO GOT IT 'FIXED' STILL HAVE ISSUES....

WHEN PUTTING VEHICLE IN PARK AND TRYING TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF THERE IS AN ERROR MESSAGE THAT COMES UP ON THE DISPLAY THAT SAYS TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. I HAVE TO TRY A COUPLE OF TIMES TO PUT IN PARK TO GET THE ERROR TO GO OUT SO I CAN SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF.

SHIFT TO PARK ERROR MESSAGE WHILE DEPRESSING BRAKE AND SHIFTING VEHICLE TO PARK POSITION NOT MOVING IN STATIONARY POSITION AND TURNING OFF VEHICLE ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS WILL NOT ALLOW VEHICLE TO TURN OFF FULLY NOR RECOGNIZE VEHICLE IS IN PARK .

STARTING ABOUT A MONTH AGO WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND THEN TURN MY VEHICLE OFF A 'SHIFT TO PARK' WARNING COMES ON AND THE CAR WILL NOT TURN OFF. THE CAR IS IN PARK AND I HAVE TO SHIFT TO A DIFFERENT GEAR AND BACK TO PARK TRYING TO GET IT TO REGISTER IT IS IN PARK. SOMETIMES IT TAKES MULTIPLE TIMES OF TRYING THIS BEFORE IT WILL RECOGNIZE IT. MY VEHICLE IS PAST THE 36,000 MILES WITH ABOUT 42,000 MILES. *TR

I BOUGHT A 2017 GMC ACADIA, AND HAVE NOT EVEN MADE A PAYMENT ON IT YET. IT JUST PASSED THE 36000 MILE MARK. I HAVE BEEN GETTING A SHIFT TO PARK WARNING EACH TIME I PARK TO SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE SAYS IT IS IN PARK, BUT IT KEEPS SENDING THE WARNING. I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND THEN DRIVE SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT WILL TURN OFF WITHOUT THE WARNING. *TR

BEGINNING IN MAY, 2020, MY ACADIA STARTED SAYING "SHIFT TO PARK" WHEN I WOULD TRY TO SHUT IT OFF, ALTHOUGH IT IS IN PARK. IT HAS INCREASINGLY GOTTEN WORSE AND IT NOW HAPPENS EVERY DAY. THIS MORNING. I HAD TO RESTART THE CAR, MOVE BACKWARDS, FORWARDS, SHUT OFF CAR AND REPEAT 7 TIMES BEFORE IT FINALLY LET ME SHUT THE CAR OFF WITHOUT THE WARNING. *TR

WHEN CAR IS IN PARK AND THE BUTTON TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE IS PRESSED A ACTION REQUIRED SHIFT TO PARK MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT TURN OFF. THE VEHICLE DOES NOT RECOGNIZE IT IS IN PARK AND WILL NOT SHUT OFF. *TR

WHEN I'M IN PARK, THE VEHICLE TELLS ME I NEED TO SHIFT TO PARK BEFORE I CAN TURN IT OFF. *TR

I RECEIVE A 'SHIFT TO PARK' WARNING MESSAGE WHEN MY VEHICLE IS CLEARLY IN THE PARK POSITION AND IT PREVENTS MY CAR FROM BEING ABLE TO COMPLETELY TURN OFF. I HAVE HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE SUPPOSEDLY REPAIRED AT THE GMC DEALERSHIP ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS AND IT IS NOW GIVING ME THE SAME ERROR. I AM NOW NO LONGER ABLE TO OPEN MY GARAGE DOOR FROM MY VEHICLE, I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INSTANCES IN WHICH THE VEHICLE DOES NOT RECOGNIZE EITHER ONE OF MY KEY FOBS.

WHEN I PULL IN SOMEWHERE AND SHIFT MY CAR INTO PARK AND THEN GO TO PRESS THE BUTTON TO TURN IT OFF I GET AN ' ACTION REQUIRED MESSAGE' ON THE CLUSTER TO SHIFT TO PARK EVEN THOUGH IT IS IN PARK ALREADY AND IT SHOWS ON THE CLUSTER THAT IT IS IN PARK. I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR THE RECALL AND HAVE IT SERVICED WHILE IT WAS THERE AND INFORMED THEM OF THE ISSUE AND TO GET THEM TO CHECK IT OUT. THEY SAID THEY WERE NOT SURE WHAT IT WAS BUT IT KEPT THROWING A LOW VOLTAGE CODE. BUT WHEN THE BATTERY WAS CHECKED IT WAS FINE. THEY FOUND A BOLT LOOSE OR MISSING ON A BATTERY CABLE AT THE JUNCTION BOX AND REPLACED IT AND SAID THAT THEY THOUGHT THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. BUT THE PROBLEM RETURNED A DAY LATER WHEN I WAS...

THE FIRST PROBLEM I HAD WAS THE SHIFT. I GOT IT FIXED. I HAVE IT ALL DOCUMENTED. NOW FOR THE SECOND TIME IN THE PAST 2 WEEKS MY CAR HAS FLASHED EVERY WARNING LIGHT POSSIBLE. I TOOK IT IN THE FIRST TIME AND WAS TOLD THE CODES DID NOT STORE AND TO KEEP DRIVING IT. I FINALLY GOT A VIDEO OF THE PROBLEM HAPPENING AND DROPPED IT OFF FOR A SECOND TIME. DURING THE PROBLEM ALL GAUGES GO TO ZERO AND THE GEAR SYMBOL DISAPPEARS. THE LAST TIME I DROVE THE CAR IT ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN AND I DID NOT HAVE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

WHEN IN PARK, A 'SHIFT TO PARK' MESSAGE APPEARED AND I COULD NOT TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. HAD TO PUT VEHICLE IN GEAR AND TRY PUTTING IN PARK AGAIN. DID THIS SEVERAL TIMES AND THE ERROR MESSAGE WENT AWAY.

THE CAR WILL NOT SHIFT TO PARK! IT SAYS SHIFT TO PARK! THIS IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE OF AN ISSUE. THE FIRST COUPLE OF TIMES I FIGURED IT MAY HAVE BEEN A FLUKE BUT LATELY IT IS ANYTIME THE CAR IS DRIVEN AND I NEED TO PARK.

WHEN PARKING VEHICLE AFTER PLACING VEHICLE IN PARK AND PUSHING IGNITION OFF DASH WARNS SHIFT TO PARK AND VEHICLE WILL NOT TURN OFF COMPLETELY. MUST RESTART VEHICLE SHIFT TO A DIFFERENT GEAR THEN SHIFT BACK TO PARK AND TURN VEHICLE OFF AGAIN.

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...

I ATTEMPT TO PLACE MY ACADIA INTO PARK AND POWER DOWN MY VEHICLE ONLY TO GET A "SHIFT TO PARK" ERROR MESSAGE. I AM UNABLE TO POWER DOWN MY VEHICLE AND NOT FULLY PARK MY VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH I HAVE PARKED IT. THIS OCCURS DAILY AND HAS OCCURED 15-20 TIMES IN 1 ATTEMPT TO PARK. I HAVE TO ATTEMPT TO TURN CAR BACK "ON" AND THEN PUT CAR INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE DRIVING ABOUT A FOOT OR SO THAN ATTEMPT TO REPARK MY VEHICLE. ONLY TO HAVE TO REPEAT THIS STEP OVER AND OVER TIL IT FINALLY DISAPPEARS. GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE ASSOCIATE CLAIMS THEY ARE UNAWARE OF THE ISSUE. OF COURSE THIS ISSUE ONLY OCCURRED AFTER MY VEHICLE WARRANTY EXPIRED.

SHIFT INTO PARK INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN SHIFTED INTO PARK. CLUSTER WON'T SHUT OFF UPON EXIT.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PUT INTO PARK(STOPPED) AND TURNED OFF THE CAR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS IN PARK. SO NOW IT SAYS "ACTION REQUIRED SHIFT TO PARK" (THE GEAR SHIFT IS IN PARK). THE ENGINE WILL BE OFF BUT THE LIGHTS, RADIO ANYTHING TIED TO THE BATTERY WILL NOT TURN OFF. THIS RUNS DOWN THE BATTERY IF YOU CANT GET THE CARD TO PARK. DEALER SHIP WILL NOT FIX

THE VEHICLE HAS HAD ONGOING ISSUES SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED IN JUNE OF 2017. THE 'SHIFT TO PARK' PROBLEM HAD TO BE FIXED TWICE, THE EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGES ITSELF FOR NO APPARENT REASON WHICH HAS ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS, THE HORN DOES NOT WORK WHEN NEEDED IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS, THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM IT'S DANGEROUS, THE BATTERY HAS DRAINED AND LEFT MY WIFE STRANDED 4 TIMES, AND THE VEHICLE HAS A VERY ROUGH IDLE AND IT ALMOST STALLS OUT. I ATTEMPTED TO WORK WITH GM TO HAVE THEM TAKE THE CAR BACK EARLY (LEASE) AND THE REQUEST WAS RECENTLY DENIED. THIS IS MY 3RD ACADIA AND IT BY FAR IS THE MOST DANGEROUS CAR I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. I AM NOW READING ABOUT A FUEL PUMP PROBLEM THAT COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO CATCH ON FIRE, A DRIVESHAFT THAT MAY SEPARATE WHILE DRIVING, AND A FAULTY BRAKING SYSTEM...

2017 GMC ACADIA WOULD ISSUE A WARNING SAYING VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT TO PARK EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK. THIS VEHICLE DEFECT IS KNOWN BY GMC AND THEIR DEALERSHIPS. A LAWSUIT IS CURRENTLY PENDING REGARDING THIS ISSUE. GMC HAS FAILED TO ISSUE A RECALL AND HAS FAILED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. WE TOOK OUR VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL GMC DEALERSHIP AUGUST 2018 DUE TO THE ISSUE. THE ISSUE STARTED AGAIN IN NOVEMBER 2019. WHEN WE CALLED ABOUT IT, THEY SAID THE PRIOR WORK WASN'T COVERED AND WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THE "KNOWN DEFECT" REPAIRED AGAIN.

VEHICLE WHEN SHIFT TO PARK WOULD INDICATE THE SHIFT WAS NOT IN PARK. WHEN I GOT THE VEHICLE NEW IS WHEN IT STARTED. I HAVE PUT UP WITH IT BY PRESSING HARD ON THE GEAR SHIFT AND CHECKING IT BEFORE TURNING THE CAR OFF.

WHEN THE CAR IS SHIFTED INTO PARK, IT OFTEN DOES NOT SHOW THAT IT IS IN PARK. IT WILL ROLL, THE LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF, DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. TO GET IT TO WORK, YOU MUST RESTART THE CAR AND MOVE THE SHIFTER IN AND OUT OF THE PARK POSITION. WHILE YOU ARE DOING THIS THE CAR WILL CONTINUE TO ROLL WITH THE BRAKES DEPRESSED. THE SERVICE WRITER AT THE DEALER STATED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 10 TIMES.

WHEN YOU PUT THE CAR INTO PARK THE COMPUTER DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS IN PARK, YOU MAY HAVE TO RESTART AND RE-PUT THE CAR BACK INTO PARK SEVERAL TIMES, ALSO THE LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK, THE BATTERY WILL RUN DOWN AND THE CAR WILL ROLL. THE VEHICLE WAS IN A FULL PARKING LOT.

WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN PARK I GET A WARNING THAT SAYS MY CAR IS NOT IN PARK ACTION REQUIRED. THE VEHICLE BELL CONTINUES TO DING AND WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO LOCK THE CAR. MY FEAR IS GETTING OUT THE VEHICLE AND IT STARTING TO ROLL NOT KNOWING IF THE VEHICLE IS ACTUALLY IN PARK. THIS IS VERY SCARY NOT KNOWING IF IT IS SAFE TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE.
