GMC Sierra 2006 — Problemas relatados

The front left frame that the wheel and suspension bolt onto is in advanced rust stages. It is being considered unsafe to drive although the right side is still considered safe. Common issue from what I have heard. Took car in to replace the starter and shop doesnwant to work on it. We cannot afford a new vehicle because of a knkwn weakness in the frame work

The front impact sensor, also known as a crash sensor (part # 10370150), is no longer functional. It detects rapid vehicle deceleration during a frontal collision and sends an immediate signal to the Airbag Control Unit (ACU) to deploy airbags. Located behind the front bumper or on the radiator support, these sensors measure impact severity to ensure airbags deploy only when necessary. This part is no longer available from GM or any other aftermarket distributor. It is a critical part for any occupants in a crash. I am just one of many people who cannot make safety corrections.

I WAS SOLD AN UNSAFE VEHICLE FOR WORK/COMUTE FAMILY. THE DEALERSHIP MISLEAD ME AND LIED TO ME ABOUT WARRANTY AND EVEN AFTER I PAID $10,0000 CASH I WAS WRONGFULLY DONE BY THIS BUSSINESS BY NO MEANS WAS THE BUSSINESS TRYING TO CONDUCT GOOD BUSSINESS WITH ME AND I ALSO HAVE A DISSABILITY AND A CHILD WITH A DISABILITY. Incident Date: 5/9/2024 Description: I PURCHASED A 2006 GMC SIERRA $10,000 CASH WAS GIVEN AND PAID OFF BUT I WAS SCAMMED BY THE DEALERSHIP. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT I WAS BEING SOLD A GOOD SAFE VEHICLE FOR WORK AND MY FAMILIES NEEDS ARE ALSO A PRIORITY. I NEVER TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE TILL I DROVE HOME AFTER PURCHASING IT. NOT EVEN 4 MINS ON THE ROAD AND I NOTICED THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD WITH THE BRAKE LIGHT AND THE FRONT BRAKES BEGAN TO SMOKE. I CONTACTED THE DEALSHIP BUT WAS DISREGARDED AND NOT OFFERED AN EXCHANGE OR ANY TYPE OF SOLUTION FOR MY PROBLEM I EVEN EXPLAINED MY JOB REQUIRED ME TO USE MY VEHICLE FOR TRANSPORTING MATERIAL FOR WORK AND SINCE I WAS IN CHARGE OF 4 PEOPLE THAT WOUL BE REQUIREING SKILLS FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND MAKING SURE ALL CUSTOMERS WERE SATISFIED. PACIFI NORTHWEST MOTORSPORTS TOOK ADVANTAGE OF MY IMPARIMENT I FEELSCAMMED AND I WANT TO HAVE MY MONEY BACK OR AT LEAST EXCHANGE FOR THE VALUE OF $10,000. I WAS NEVER OFFERED ANY TYPE OF SLOUTION FROM THE BUSSINESS THE OWNER LAUGHED AT ME AND SAID THAT IT SUCKED TO BE ME AND HUNG UP THE PHONE ON ME. THE BUSSINNESS OWNER LIED TO THE ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE ABOUT OFFEREING ME A REMEDY THE ONLY REMEDY I WOULD CONSIDER IS MY MONEY BACK AND AN EXCHANGE FOR MY TROUBLES I feel that this is a vehicle manufacturer malfuncunctiom. I'm still having the sa,e problem with my brakes .. please help I have tried repairing the problem, numerous times to be unsuccessful .

something shorted on or behind the dash on the drivers side and caught fire

MY PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL BROKE AND WENT SIDEWAYS WHEN I TURN OFF THE HIGHWAY IN MONTZUMA ONLY GOING ABOUT 30MPH

MY VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AND I SEE THEIR IS A RECALL FOR THE PITMAN ARM THAT CAN CAUSE TOTAL LOSS IF STEERING AND THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED TO ME

I HAD A CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD AND WHEN THEY REPLACED IT THE TECHNICIAN SAID IT WAS SO RUSTED FROM THE INSIDE THAT IF ANYTHING HAPPENED AGAIN THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE IT HE HAD TO REALLY DO SOME WORK AROUNDS HE SAID TO EVEN REPLACE THIS ONE. THAT MAKES ME FEEL THAT THIS IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE IF WE WERE TO GET IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THERE IS NO RUST ON THE OUTSIDE AROUND THE WINDSHIELD AT ALL. SO I WAS VERY SURPRISED WHEN THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT.

BRAKES FAILED "COMPLETELY", WITH NO WARNING. NO "WARNING LIGHT" ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WHILE DRIVING ON A PUBLIC ROAD IN THE COUNTY. ALL OF A SUDDEN ABSOLUTELY NO BRAKES. HAD RECENTLY HAULED A CAR ON A TRAILER FROM EMPORIA, KANSAS. WAS PREPARING TO HAUL CALVES TO THE SALE BARN. NOW THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A TOTAL DISASTER. UPON INSPECTION, THE BRAKE LINES ARE SO RUSTED, THAT PINCHING OFF THE LINE RESULTED IN A RUPTURE IN ANOTHER LOCATION. I WAS TRYING TO GET SOME BRAKING ACTION, SO I COULD DRIVE IT TO A REPAIR SHOP. I'LL HAVE TO HAUL IT. *TR

I TOOK OUR TRUCK IN FOR SERVICING AT THE O'NEILL GMC DEALERSHIP IN WARMINSTER, PA AND WAS TOLD THAT ALL OF OUR BRAKE LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO RUSTING. WE PURCHASED OUR VEHICLE NEW FROM O'NEILL AND HAVE CONTINUED TO HAVE IT SERVICED THERE. THE TRUCK IS TREATED WITH GREAT RESPECT AND ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT. I CONTACTED GMC DUE TO THE DEFECTIVE MATERIALS OF THE VEHICLE THEY SOLD US AND THEY CLAIM THAT THIS IS NORMAL. I NOW AM STRAPPED WITH A BILL FOR $2700.00 TO REPLACE ALL FOUR DEFECTIVE, RUSTING BRAKE LINES THEIR WEBSITE SAYS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION GUARANTEED. I BELIEVE GMC SHOULD CONTRIBUTE $1700 TOWARDS THE BILL. I NOTE THAT THERE ARE OVER TEN PAGES OF COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET REGARDING CORROSION PROBLEMS. PLEASE HOLD GMC ACCOUNTABLE. THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN GOOD FAITH AND THEY SHOULD ADMIT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR INFERIOR BRAKE LINE MATERIALS. I AM DISAPPOINTED WITH GMC'S EXCUSES AND NONSENSE. I TOLD THEM THEY SHOULD PAY $1700 OUT OF THE MONEY THEY BANKED FROM THE EXPIRED, EXTENDED WARRANTY WE PURCHASED. THIS IS A GMC ISSUE; NOT A [XXX] ISSUE. AGAIN, PLEASE HOLD THEM RESPONSIBLE FOR SELLING A DEFECTIVE TRUCK. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
