2013 GMC TERRAIN Structurebody Problems

Diagnosis - rear floor boards and trunk well full of water. Diagnose and report - Founds traces of water running down rear pillars, starting just under the taillights. Remove rear taillights and found access hole tape failed, allowing water to enter vehicle.

The hydraulics that are intended to hold up the rear lift gate have failed. After opening the lift gate and leaning in to get something out of the rear of the car, the lift gate will begin to close and hit or hurt the person that is standing at the back of the car. I have not shown this to a dealer or independent service provider, but it is easily reproducible. Likewise, I have not shown this to a manufacturer, the police, or an insurance representative. There were no warning lamps regarding this issue. The problem just started happening approximately 12 months ago.

I BOUGHT THE VECHILE IN FEB. 2016 RAN FINE. IN JUNE OF 2016. THE VECHILE STARTED ACTING LIKE IT HAD WATER IN THE GAS HESITATEING STALLING AND THE RADIO AND TOUCH SCREEN DON'T WORK TOOK IT TO A DEALER AND HE SAID HAD ATER IN FUEL PUT I A NEW SENORS. BUT STILL DOING THE SAME THING STALLING WHEN COMING TO STOP SIGNS HESITATES NOT GOING INTO TO GEAR TOOK IT TO GM DEALER IN NEW RICHMOND AND THEY HOOK UP TO A COMPUTER SAID NOTHING WRONG WHEN VECHILE DOSE IT AGAIN BRING IT IN DON'T TURN IT OFF THATS HARD TO DO BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO START IT UP AGAIN TO DRIVE IT THEIR KNOW TODAY THE RADIO IS OFF AND TOUCHSCREEN DON'T COME ON I AM JUST SCARED BECAUSE WE TAKE OUR SON TO ROCHESTER THREE DAYS A WEEK FOR THERPY HELP

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC TERRAIN. WHEN THE LIFTGATE WAS OPENED REMOTELY, IT WOULD OPEN AND THEN CLOSE UNEXPECTEDLY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED EVERY TIME FOR APPROXIMATELY FOUR MONTHS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 86,000.

TAILGATE DOES NOT STAY OPEN. SLOWLY CLOSES. STARTED HAPPENING 3/1/2017. HAPPENS WHENEVER I OPEN REAR TAILGATE FOR ACCESS.

THE BACK HATCH OF MY 2013 GMC TERRAIN HAS PERFORATING CORROSION AND THE DEALERSHIP (WHITE'S MOUNTAIN, CASPER, WY) WON'T REPAIR IT AND NEITHER WILL GENERAL MOTORS DESPITE IT STILL BEING UNDER WARRANTY

STARTED RIGHT AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN JAN 2013 AND CONTINUES EVERY WINTER. WHEN OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE FALLS BELOW 40 DEGREE'S THE VEHICLE WINDSHIELD MAKES A CRACKING SOUND. I LIKE TO REFER TO IT AS MAKING "POPCORN" SAME SOUND. CONTINUES WHILE DRIVING UNTIL I HEAT UP CAR. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO DEALER ATTENTION EVEN HAD IT IN SERVICE DEPARTMENT BUT THEY ARE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE SOUND. I HAVE VIDEO AND SENT TO GMC.

SNOW, MUD AND ALL ROAD DIRT ACCUMULATES INSIDE THE BOTTOM OF ALL DOORS, UP TO THE INSIDE INTERIOR PANEL OF THE DOORS. AM CONCERNED ABOUT RUST IN THE FUTURE AND IF IT'S DUE TO AN IMPROPER SEAL ON DOORS. *JS

ROAD DIRT, SNOW, MUD ACCUMULATES AT INSIDE BOTTOMS OF DOORS ALL THE WAY UP TO BOTTOM OF SPEAKER AREAS. I CAN SEE WHERE IT IS PULLING DOWN THE BOTTOM PANELS. CALLED DEALER AND ASKED FOR GM INFO ON THIS AND NOTHING BACK FROM DEALER. ALSO 2 WEEKS AGO ENGINE LITE CAME ON, TOOK TO LOCAL DEALER FOR REPLACEMENT OF GASOLINE SENSOR? AT 10,000 MILES? ASKED IF I USED CORN GAS? NO, I USE PLUS OR PREMIUM. DOES THIS HAPPEN EVERY 10,000 MILES? ALSO I AM CONCERNED I WILL HAVE RUST ON MY DOORS VERY SOON. *TR
