There are 3 owner-reported fuel system complaints for the 2015 GMC Acadiain NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
VEHICLE STALLS AFTER PUTTING FUEL IN. WON'T INITIALLY START UNTIL SECOND TRY TURNING IT ON.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WAS INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD REMAIN AT ONE QUARTER FULL EVEN AFTER BEING FILLED UP. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 64,000.
INJECTORS STICKING OPEN. BROUGHT TO DEALER AT 26,000 MILES AFTER IT BROKE DOWN 200 MILES AWAY. THAT WAS AFTER THE GMC DEALERSHIP TOLD US IT SHOULD BE OK TO DRIVE. INJECTOR STUCK OPEN AND THE DEALER WE BROKE DOWN AT SAID THE VEHICLE COULD CATCH FIRE IF WE KEPT DRIVING. THEY REPLACED THE INJECTOR THAT WAS THE ISSUE. NOW LAST WEEK ANOTHER DIFFERENT INJECTOR FAILED. THIS TIME THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE FILLED WITH THE SMELL OF FUEL AND WAS VIOLENTLY SHAKING ON THE ROAD. WE COULDN'T PULL OVER RODGER AWAY BECAUSE WE WEREN'T ON A SAFE ROAD TO STOP AT. ENDED UP DRIVING IT TO THE NEAREST GAS STATION. MY WIFE AND SON WERE IN THE CAR SCREAMING AND CRYING AT HOW BAD THE CAR WAS DRIVING AND SMELLED. WE WERE VERY FEARFUL THE CAR WAS GOING TO CATCH ON FIRE. GMC ONCE AGAIN STATES IT'S AN ISOLATED INCIDENT AFTER IT'S HAPPENED TWICE WITHIN MONTHS. AND THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE ALL INJECTORS OR RECALL THE VEHICLE. WE TOLD THEM WE DIDN'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT BUT THEY DON'T CARE TO HEAR IT. BOTH TIMES WE WERE DRIVING BETWEEN 55-70MPH AND IT'S A VERY SCARY UNSAFE FEELING WHEN IT HAPPENS.
