Since i bought my truck i have been having multiple problems with the engine and transmission i've tried multiple times to contact the dealership to get my car looked at and they do not respond back to me i feel like they act as if i did no business with them on purchasing my car
Driving on the highway and engine stalled on me and wouldnt go. so i rolled over to the side of the highway to pull over. when i stop the car, i see smoke coming from under dash board and under hood. so i get out real fast and open hood. i look down in front of the engine and the engine is on fire. i poured some water on it but did not put it out. called 911. and backed away. fire put its self out before 911 got there. had it towed to firestone. in examination. they said engine piston blew a hole on the side of the engine. i just bought the car used and had it for 4 months when this happened. now i am stuck paying for a car that is sitting in my driveway because it is in operable. i cannot afford $10000.00 for another motor to be installed, which was what i was quoted.
Multiple times my gmc stalls while in movement. does it when i am making turns driving slow speeds or backing up. multiple times it has resulted in my vehicle almost being hit. big problem i am having as well is that oil seems to burn fast. i get my oil changes regularly but have to go back into shop between oil changes for them to put more oil in as its burning out so quickly. i am not leaking oil at all!! these two things have been a constant problem being a mom i am scared to have m uh kids in the car that it may malfunction while they are in it and result in an accident. recalls should be in place to fix these problems as they are serious problems.
Motor started knocking louder and louder at 85,000 miles. brought vehicle to a gm dealer where they replaced; timing chain, balance chain, tensioner, and valves. gm only claims responsibility for the timing chain, though that part breaking caused far more damage to the motor. gm has knowingly put and kept out their bad 4-cylinder ecotech motors from 2010-2013. their class action lawsuit stipulations disqualify most vehicles that are affected. my vehicle is currently broken down due to the same issue, i can't rely on the motor to get me where i'm going without dying at a stop sign or running completely out of oil 2,000 miles after having an oil change. while breaking on a highway my motor will rev up, as if it's trying to accelerate while i'm trying to slow down.

My car has cut off on me approximately 12 times in the last week. almost cause a wreck one time because it happened while i was pulling out onto the highway. luckily i was able to coast out of traffic in time. usually happens when when i'm at a low speed or sitting idle.
My gmc terrain 2011 is having trouble accelerating, and i hear a noise from the engine. when i am at a stop light and i try to accelerate, it pulls and doesn't go forward. it's stalking my terrain. i did some research, and i found that this vehicle has a recall #12313d- special coverage adjustment- engine balance chain and fuel pump. i looked up, and it seems this vehicle has 0 unclaimed recalls. so, i'm concern because this vehicle is stalling and not working as it should be. the recall does say, 'if left untreated, could cause the chain to break, leading to engine damaged.
Takata recall when at a complete stop and starting to go the suv will stall right where it is at. no warning light. just dies!
Engine is burning out oil and causes engine to stall in highways. it may lead to accidents and fatalities. engine is also losing power completely.
Excessive oil consumption piston ring wear
Almost a month after my oil change my engine started making noise and cutting off. when i took it to get checked, they said that my oil was gone and my engine is failing. now my car is just sitting at the dealership, because the price is gonna be to high. is their a recall for my 2011 g.m.c terrain
I had pressed on the brake to yield before entering a round a bout and without warning my terrain shut off. i was able to put it in park and restart it. however not even a mile down the road turning into a parking lot it shut off again with out warning. i was able to coast out of the way thankfully and put the car in park and then restart it. then again this afternoon turning in my driveway it shut off again with out warning. other than today the car has shut off with out warning 3 other times. i can't make it 3000 miles before i need another oil change as well. i have the timing belt break on me, the actuators have been replaced multiple times. i've lost count on how many times my car has been in shop over the last year. i'm very afraid that the engine is going to shut off again without warning and cause and accident with my kids in the car.
