Exterior Lighting · reported Nov 11, 2026
I own a 2024 GMC Acadia that experienced a failure of the driver's-side rear turn signal. The problem first appeared on August 23, 2026, when the turn signal began flashing abnormally fast (hyperflashing), indicating a malfunction. The vehicle had approximately 60,433 miles at the time of the repair. The driver's-side rear turn signal was malfunctioning, creating a safety concern because other motorists could not reliably see my intention to turn or change lanes. This increased the risk of a collision, particularly when making left turns or changing lanes in traffic. I took the vehicle to…
Power Train · reported Nov 3, 2026
On [xxx], I remote-started my 2024 GMC Acadia. With the driver-side door and rear passenger-side door left completely open, I stepped inside the vehicle, placed my foot firmly on the brake pedal, and pressed the engine Push-to-Start button to transition the vehicle from remote-start mode to operational drive mode. Immediately after pressing the button, I took my foot off the brake pedal and exited the vehicle. A second later as I was walking toward the back of my vehicle, without any driver intervention or manual gear selection, the electronic shift-by-wire transmission uncommandedly engaged…
Exterior Lighting · reported Sep 28, 2026
On September 26th, 2026 I got a random notification about needing to get my rear left turn signal checked out as it still functions but blinks rapidly. Today, September 28th, 2026, I visited my local dealership for the issue and was informed that they had received a bulletin regarding the concern but that instead of covering the defect tied to a "software anomaly", I was told it would be around $600 to replace. I feel this is a strong enough safety issue that should be considered for a recall as this is a widespread problem and should be covered by GM.
Structure · reported Sep 24, 2026
Well, letâs try this again. The first try disappeared. The rear hatch seal on the vehicle has identical spots on both sides of the hatch that are mashed flat. I think this is being caused by the flat spots on the hatch itself. The vehicle is a total body and engine redesign. The flat spots allow for dust intrusion into the cabin all the way to the front of the cabin. We live on a gravel road, so we can see the intrusion, albeit it took a while to figure out where it was coming from. People in town wonât know. I videoed the seal and hatch the day before it was replaced by the dealership. My…
Forward Collision Avoidance · reported Sep 22, 2026
Today, on [XXX] outside of Sapulpa Oklahoma, while in the inside lane of three southbound lanes, cruise control on at 80mph. The car suddenly reduced power, air conditioning stopped, assisted power brakes stopped working, gauge cluster full of flashing warnings. Pulled to the right shoulder, stopped with difficulty. Had to pump and stand on brakes to get stopped. Shut off engine, then restated and everything stated working again. Scary situation in heavy traffic. Lucky to be alive!!
