2008 GMC Acadia seats complaints

Filed Oct 20, 2009 · Seats · MO

I purchased a new 2008 gmc acadia in sept. Of 2007 and I have had several problems with is sense buying. The biggest problem is my second row of seating it has a 60/40 split and the 60 portion pops up all the time even when an adult is sitting on it. I have taken to two different gmc dealerships 7 times and no one can find anything wrong. I even contacted gm's main office and they said they can not do anything until the service dept. Finds a problem. Their only suggestion was to take it to a third dealer and see if they can find what's wrong. I feel that is a very unfair to me because that just means I have to drive further to find a dealer and waste more time on something that should have been fixed a year and a half ago. I have 3 kids and they can not even sit on that seat because you never know when its going to catapult them up and into the back of the drivers seat. We can't even put our youngest carseat in the seat. This has just been very upsetting and I am tired of dealing with gm and the salesperson I bought the car from is the one who suggested I contact you. Again we bought this car brand new. The other things that are wrong is I still have water leaking in the top of the drivers window when it's sitting during a hard rain,, my fan motor for the A/C and heat goes up and down all by it's self and paint is peeling off the hood. These are things I guess I can deal with but the seat has got to get corrected. I hope you can help, thank you and look forward to hearing from someone.
