I've had this car for ONE Week. I paid in full so no payments to a dealership. Paid $300 to have it COMPLETELY inspected by a mechanic to be sure it was in good shape which he assured me it was. Then just 6 days later it's pouring outside and I'm on my way home from work and have to take my 1 year old to a doctor's appointment right away. I get half way home.. Start to slow down to turn on a Very busy road and 3 lights kick on (t/c, and 2 engine) and this f*ckin car was running but would not move! The rpms worked but it wouldn't accelerate. I get it to slowly roll to cross, park it and start it back up. Drive will not work so I shift to reverse and it SLAMS into gear. I'm having it towed to a mechanic today. It's either a sensor or the transmission BUT I've read complaints about this car acting up like this when it rains?! What a f*ckin JOKE!! WAY TO GO GM! BUILD A SUV THAT'S NOT WEATHER RESISTANT?! SERIOUSLY?! a half hour in the rain and the piece of sh*t acts up so bad that it literally quits! F*ck this car... Maybe it is a sensor or the damn tranny but the fact that rain is even a possibility...gm just need to throw in the towel smfh
