NHTSA complaint #10716951, filed 2015-05, 121,000 miles“I just had my transmission repaired, cost me my savings, and a known issue with many owners. Now the power steering is caput. Have to waist my precious time and money on taking the car to the shop again. There is already a class action law suite for this exact issue. Shame on gmc for producing such poor quality car.”
