Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“We recently purchased this vehicle used from a dealership. I am very disappointed with my first Gmc purchase so far. Within two months of buying this car, I had to replace the entire rear axle. Now, two months later, the transmission went bad and needs to be replaced as well. I dont understand how dealerships can sell these cars with such problems and the manufactures need to address the problems and resolve them. Any info would be greatly appreciated!”
