Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Windshield defrost failed when HVAC Module Temp Door failed similarly to failures in 2015 and 2016 year models. GMC confirmed and repaired the 2015 and 2016 model years; but, has so far refused to acknowledge or repair my 2017 model; even though, from information available to me, it is the same part with the same problem. The dealership quoted me $2,500 for repairs.”
