I already have complaint number #11025458. I wanted to continue adding. Since I filed the complaint the problem still persist and more frequent and dangerous. The check engine light still comes on then within a day or two turns off. Stays off for a few days then again on and off. It's not the oil change that has been done already. That's the only message we get when we take it to gmc to have the light checked. The excellarating still continues when I'm at a stop light. The car has turned off on me 2 times now while wanting to drive (excellaratting to drive) the car has not wanted to turn on for 1hr. It's not the battery we had it checked. My time on the truck keeps resetting. After I set it then go back in the truck to drive it's reset again, so it's turning off the battery then turning it back on. I still get alot of the hessitation to drive it makes the whole truck shake I'm forcing it to drive. I have come close to someone hitting me due to the hessitation of it not moving even though I'm pushing the gas. I have not heard nothing from you guys. The dealer can't find nothing but said it might be the break senser that I paid $180.00 to have changed with the exact same problems still happening. I received a recall letter of a part for my truck took it to gmc they said I should be getting another letter from the same company when the part is available. It's been over a year still nothing. Something needs to be done about this. Do I need a lawyer? The problems accure weather it's in motion or stationary, on the city st or highway turning or not it does not matter it happens with everything. Thank you

What owners say
Since I purchased the vehicle 2 yrs ago I have complained to dodge and gmc about the issues involving the car. It has hessitated when pushing on the gas after being in a stop. It has accelerated on its own on a stop light gone all the way to 4. I had to put it on park for it to stop.the car has completely turned off on me several times then the check engine light turns on and then after 2-3 days turns off along with the road hazzard light. When I take it to have it checked they find nothing. I finally got tired of it took it to dodge to have it diagnose paid $150.1. They did not offer a loaner car 2. They had my car for almost 2 days just for a diagnossic test 3. They did not have a hybrid specialist there nor did they sent it to one. They didnt find nothing wrong with it just suggested to do transmission change, change the wires to the spark plugs and change the spark plugs after doing all that. The problem continued. I then took it to gmc paid another $150 for them to do a diagnosis test. They also did not find anything wrong with it but seen that it had a extended warranty of the throttles and said that could be it. After changing that the problem still continued. The only thing that the guy told me from me explaining the problems is it could be the brake senser. Paid &170.00. Problem still continued nothing has changed. This is dangerous and could cause an accident, the car turning completely off on me hessitating to drive and accelerating on it's own when on park is dangerous. I have done more than my park in taking the car to see what's wrong with it yet no one can find nothing wrong with it the machine says nothing when I want the problem to acure to show them what I am talking about it does not do it. I don't know what else to do. But this is dangerous very very dangerous. I paid alot with no results to show for it. Please look into this and have it checked.
We were at a stop and we started to go and turn the truck hesitated and died in the middle of the road we restarted the truck back up and the check engine light came on and it hesitated when we started to go again and it was over excelerating and took a while to change from 1st gear to 2nd gear
Sometimes when I come to a stop my vehicle goes into the autostop mode, but when I go to accelerate it just dies in the middle of the intersection with the gas engine not engaging and the electric mode not moving the vehicle then it jerks really hard. The check engine light comes on and stays on for about a day and then goes off on it's own. I have taken the vehicle to mulitple gmc dealerships numerous times and paided out for repairs that did not solve the problem. The dealership claims to not be able to find any codes even with the check engine light on. I have been close to being hit from the back on at least 3 occasions because the vehicle initially moves slowly before jerking and stalling and almost broad sided on more than 3 occasions when pulling out of a stop sign into traffic. I am aware others are experiencing similar problems can we get help because obviously the dealership isn't concerned with our safety. I have recently been refused the opportunity the have a gm regional rep meet me at a local dealership to review the issue.
Sometimes when I come to a stop my vehicle goes into the autostop mode, but when I go to accelerate it doesn't come out of autostop and jerks really hard then stalls out. Once I put the vehicle in park and restart it, it cranks right up but the check engine light comes on and stays on for about a day and then goes off on it's own. I have taken the vehicle to gmc dealership twice and paid out about $700 for repairs that did not solve the problem. The dealership claims to not be able to find any codes even with the check engine light on. I have been close to being hit from the back on at least 3 occasions because the vehicle initially moves slowly before jerking and stalling. Please help myself and others with this similar problem get help because obviously the dealership isn't concerned with our safety as well as our children.
Driving 45 exiting the freeway when warning engine light come son " engine power reduced" and dropped the car to 1mph almost causing an accident. I would press on the gas pedal and there was no power it had me stalled on the off ramp exit during busy morning traffic. After 10 minutes of being stalled and attempting to give the gas pedal it finally moved for me to get over out of the way. The engine light is still on. Very dangerous luckily no accident and I didnt have my kids in the car.
