Example complaints

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

“All wheel drive failed (water in wiring harness caused loss of programming software). Dealer contacted GM and they downloaded software to reprogram the all wheel drive(transfer case). This software was not the original software installed in the vehicle when I purchased it. I was told that they could not go back to the original software. Ever since this incident the all wheel drive has not worked properly. Vehicle has excessive rear wheel slippage before front wheel drive will engage. I live in snow country and this is not a good thing. …”
