To whom it may concern, this is a brand new 2024 GMC sierra at4 diesel truck with 4,000 miles. The first incident occurred when I was doing about 5 mph. The truck maintained its speed without my foot on the gas pedal and the cruise control was not on. Then when I tapped the gas pedal, everything return to normal. The second incident was about 2 weeks later in which the same thing happened. The third incident which was about one week later, I was doing about 5 mph and the truck accelerated on its own. I let the truck accelerate to approximately 28 mph. At that point I hit the brakes to stop the vechicle and pulled over. The truck was idling very high so I turned off the engine. All the ignition lighting remained on, but the truck would not restart. Even after removing the keys from the vehicle the ignition lighting remained on. At that point the truck had be towed back to the dealership which is rainbow Buick, GMC in covington, louisiana. I've been told by the rainbow service department that they do not know what's wrong with the truck. It's been sitting there for 10 days now was a dead battery. My salesman who I don't really believe, said he has the exact same truck and it happen to his tuck at 30,000 miles. I file a claim with GMC customer support but have yet to hear from them. I'm obviously very disappointed with my new truck, my salesperson, and service department. If there's anything you can do to help please let me know! thank you, [xxx] cell: [xxx] email: [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

Radio cuts in and out. Screen goes black, or gets fuzzy looking. All radio control functions quit working. After I shut the truck off, the radio will stay on.

39 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 04/27/2024

I was driving my vehicle, with my 9-year-old son in the back, when it seemed to completely lose power and shut down (while I was driving!). The power steering, brakes, and gas all gave out. I was able to steer myself toward the side of the road where I waited for a tow. The vehicle would not start, nor would it shift into neutral, which led to towing challenges. This is a 2024 vehicle that I've had for about eight months, and it completely gave out while I was driving with a child in the back, which is a significant safety concern. Nobody at the dealership or GMC is able to offer anything with respect to information on how or why this happened and what you are doing to resolve the issue. From what I see online, this is a known issue that GMC is likely to be sued for in the future.

Component or system failure: complete failure of the headlights and interior lighting, including the dashboard after post remote start - ignition on. Safety risk: headlights and other interior lighting would not activate leaving the vehicle completely dark. The only remedy was to completely restart the vehicle. Reproduced?: no. The vehicle is brand new with less than 100 miles. Inspected?: no warning messages: there were unpresented in the dic. However, the vehicle also would not shift from drive.
