Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When driving at highway speeds between 72 MPH +, the vehicle will vibrate very badly to the point where you can not drive so fast. It comes and goes and when it comes back sometimes even at reduced speeds of 65mph the vehicle still vibrates very bad. I have informed GM of my issue and my local dealership and they choose not to do anything. Really, because they don't know what it is. The vibration is so bad that it can numb your body by the end of your drive or distract you enough to crash. I drive up to 9 hours with my vehicle for work and it is very uncomfortable. …”
NHTSA complaint #10596990, filed 2014-06, 250 miles“I was traveling up an incline when vehicle started jumping. Engine light came on, as well as stability or skid control and when turning on turn signal the wipers came on. Did not feel safe but drove to nearest dealership with vehicle jumping and missing out, about 4 blocks. Diagnoses was faulty fuel injector at 4577 miles on vehicle. After picking up vehicle when repair was done it missed out again but no engine light. Dealership could not duplicate the problem. Hope this isn't going to be ongoing issue.”
