The back seat driver's side door shut with such impact as to amputate the finger from an adult. Vehicle was parked on incline when front driver's side door shut, the back door also shut. There were no safety features to protect fingers from the hinge side of back door. The force of the door slamming and lack of any space between the hinge side of the door and its frame caused my middle finger from the top knuckle up to be cut off completely thus amputated from hand.

Rear driver side cast aluminum knuckle/hub assembly fractured. The rear wheel partially separated from the suspension with uncontrolled toe, camber, & caster. Wheel impacted suspension linkage causing fracture of rear driver side rotor. Vehicle is available for inspection. Incident caused driver to lose control of vehicle and go into ditch UNKNOWN if problem has been reproduced Vehicle/component has not been inspected No warning symptoms prior to failure

Unsure of cause, but just lost our 2012 Acadia SLT2 AWD to a FIRE! Driver & passenger jumped out. Fire Dept rolled two trucks to extinguish. Parts melted onto the pavement. No prior warning.

The power liftgate suddenly collapsed while I was standing underneath it. It dropped on top of my head pretty hard as it was a sudden drop of the liftgate. My safety was/is at risk and has caused injury to my head. Currently experiencing headaches. As condition progresses, I will be seeking medical attention. It is available for inspection. I have recorded a video of the problem. The problem is recurring and reproducing. I have not taken it to a dealer or independent service center today (9

Was waiting on dealership to catch up to bring in for a transmission problem. I know it is transmission related due to not wanting to shift properly and the fact my friend has same make and model only about 100000 more miles than mine does was doing same symptoms and she took to 3 or 4 mechanics and all said nothing wrong..no codes show up...needless to say after about 2 months it stalled out on her on interstate with speed limit 75 and she barely moving. I myself was at a sharp curve in turn l

THE SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DEPLOYED COMING UP MY DRIVEWAY. THERE WAS NO COLLISION AND MY VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING ONLY 8 MILES PER HOUR. I HAVE ASKED FOR EXPLANATION FROM THE MANUFACTURER ON HOW THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED IF THEY DID NOT MALFUNCTION. THEY REFUSE TO PROVIDE AN EXPLANATION OR PROOF MY VEHICLE WAS TESTED.

CAR IS IN PARK WHEN BUTTON IS PUSHED FOR POWER LIFT GATE. POWER LIFT GATE WILL OPEN, STAYS OPEN BRIEFLY, THEN WILL BEGIN CLOSE. IT 'CATCHES' ITSELF MOMENTARILY BEFORE SLAMMING SHUT. IT HAS SLAMMED SHUT ON ME SEVERAL TIMES, CAUSING THE HATCHBACK DOOR TO HIT MY HEADING ONE OCCASION.

WITH THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY, I OPENED THE POWER LIFT GATE, IT OPENED COMPLETELY, AND SUDDENLY FEE FELL ABOUT 1 TO 2 FEET, STIKING ME AND MY 6 MONTH OLD SON IN THE HEAD. I HAVE REPEATED THIS OPERATION MULTIPLE TIMES STANDING CLEAR OF THE LIFT GATE AND IT CONTINUES TO DO THE SAME THING EVERYTIME. IT IS NOT SAFE TO ACCESS THE CARGO AREA OF MY VEHICLE UNTIL THIS IS REPAIRED. I CALLED THE GMC DEALER IN BUNKIE, LA TO SEE IF IT WAS COVERED UNDER THE 2012 GMC ACADIA RECALLS FOR POWER LIFT GATE MALFUN

MY CAR WAS PURCHASED WITH A POWER LIFT GATE IN 2012. IT HAS ALWAYS WORKED FINE UNTIL ONE DAY RECENTLY I WAS HOLDING MY YOUNG DAUGHTER PUTTING A PACKAGE IN THE TRUNK WHEN IT SUDDENLY REVERSED ITS MOTION JUST AS IT WAS ALMOST FULLY OPEN AND CAME SLAMMING DOWN ON BOTH MY DAUGHTER AND I HITTING ME, THANKFULLY NOT MY DAUGHTER RIGHT IN THE HEAD. THERE WAS NO WAY I COULD HAVE GOTTEN OUT OF THE WAY OF THIS DOOR-THE SAFETY FEATURE WHICH WOULD MAKE IT GO BACK UP IF SOMETHING WAS IN THE WAY WAS DEFECTIVE

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION NEAR AN INTERSECTION AND APPROACHING THE LIGHT TO TURN. ( NEAR AIRPORT IN RALEIGH NC) THE FRONT AND SIDE AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY DURING THE CRASH. THE OTHER VEHICLE HAS BEEN DECLARED TOTAL LOSS AND MINE HAS SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE AND COULD BE CLASSIFIED AS TOTAL LOSS. THERE ARE PERSONAL INJURIES. I AM ATTACHING PICTURES OF THE VEHICLE AND ACCIDENT REPORT.
