1 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 12/26/2014

While making a left turn onto another street at approximately 12 mph, the left rear ball joint pulled completely unseated. This caused the wheel to no longer spin and pushed the top against the frame causing damage to the following: upper control arm, upper pivot bushing, and knuckle on the left rear wheel. I did have the ball joint replaced and currently am in need of replacing the bushing and knuckle. All in all, these repairs will have cost ball joint replacement and labor approximately 267. 00, bushing and knuckle 165. 00, and upper control arm 65. 00, plus tool rentals. Luckily I was not driving any faster at the time of incident, but still it caused loss of function and steering based on that. There is a recall in canada for this issue but has not been issued in the u. S. I'm seriously considering a lawsuit against gm for this as it is used not only as my working vehicle for my job, but also to transport my family.

2 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 05/15/2013

In 2013 had my passenger slider door fixed for not opening half the time or it would just open. I took it in and got it fix cost me 800. 00 and the same day got it fixed the driver door did the same thing and the dealer finally got it to shut but still having problems with it opening all my it self and then we have a hard time getting it to close. I seen alot of complaints about these doors just wondering if any problems are with a recall.

3 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 08/10/2011

The automatic sliding doors won't colse. It opens up again when the closing slide door touches the frame. This happens every a few days!! very frustrating. And I saw there are 4 or 5 similar compliant reports on this already. So looks like it does happens on a number of vehicles already, not an isolated incident.
