general problems of the 2010 GMC Acadia

The abs and the traction control light came on all of sudden when I was driving down the interstate and it just stays on.

After I pull into my driveway and put my car in park and turn off the ignition the car gets stuck in park and wont shift back out for hours. Also when I'm driving the car states that the engine is in reduced power and the traction control is off and to service stabilitrak. This is a common problem with this vehicle of all years from 2007 to the present it needs to be fixed 6 deaths so far and still no recall to fix my car I dont want to end up being another death if you dont fix this issue.

Driving in the rain and the traction safety came on as I may have sled on some very wet leaves. I was able to pull to the shoulder and get out of traffic, as I gathered myself and got the car ready to drive off the tires started spinning out of control I awesome trying to get traction then the abs light appeared and the brakes started grinding. Then the vehicle switch gears and the car begin to go in a jerky movement at 6 to 8 mph the rpms would not go up and the car would not return back to normal gear. After praying I make it to my door the dash then said calibrate vehicle by driving in a circle. The car cut off twice but would immediately start right up then the dash stated engine is hot turn air off. No air was on at all. The thermostat temperature gauge was all the way up and all the needles were flipping up and down at different times. I could not seem to gain traction only in reverse and no engine light or any indication of any malfunction. Can you see why there has not been a recall on this issue because as I searched to see about this problem it has been hundreds of consumers with this issue. This is very dangerous and unsafe to all drivers. GMC needs to do something about their so called safety features that are not safe at all. I could have lost my life because of the weather condition and the car losing traction and the tires spinning out of control. It was almost like the computer did not know how to shut down. Please help.

I have a 2010 GMC Acadia. Several months ago I received the gm special coverage extended warrant letter # 14329. At that time, I had already noticed extreme difficulty in turning the wheel at low rates of speed and brushed it off as probably needing power steering fluid I also noticed a "whining" noise along with this action. I began to worry as the matter kept worsening and already still had trauma from a prior accident in 2010 which left me to purchase this vehicle in 2011 which I thought would be a more safe stable vehicle for me. Upon a few weeks later, while trying to make a left hand turn manuever, the steering wheel completely "locked" up! luckily, no oncoming traffic was in sight, otherwise, I would have been unable to get out of the way as I was in the middle of the highway! I immediatly contacted the dealer and explained my issue and named the letter I had received a few months prior. Thus, an appointment was scheduled. I took my vehicle in on that specific day. The dealer contacts me to inform me that the pump was covered in the warrant but not the rack which they said was leaking on both sides (which is the most expensive part). My out of pocket expense of $1200. 00 after labor and the alignment!! all the parts of the power steering system should be paid for all expense by gm!! this is a tremendous safety issue and peoples lives are at danger! no one has $1200 to just drop on auto repair and I had to take out a loan!! what is gm waiting for hunders of deaths?!! there's already a class action lawsuit filed gm 4-1-13. Gm needs to reimburse me and all others!! gm's ceo's need to do a major recall and take care of their customers. This is no joke and an extreme hazard! I'm also filing a complaint with gm as well.

The brake lights will remain on at times even when the brakes are not being used. Also the traction control and electronic stability control will randomly turn off (frequently) and the dealerships are unable to tell me why and how to fix it. The cruise control at times will not work.
