Description of the problem | I have a 2015 terrian sle. Around 57,000 miles my terrian started burning 2+ 2+quarts of oil in between oil changes with no apparent reason, i have always kept the oil changed before it got below 7%, after noticing the oil levels dropping fast i checked it everyday. The engine light came on with my last oil change, 2 weeks ago, showing 2 bad cam sensors p0010 and p0011. I went to my mechanic only to find out that the 2. 4 motors have been littered with oil leaks, timing chain problems, cam sensor issue and stalling. I paid good money for this car and i am not pleased with the continuing motor problems from gmc. If the same problem that occurred on early models is still happening, why is there not recall? I am frustrated as i have only one vehicle and the out of pocket cost is ridiculous, especially when i'm being told it's cheaper to buy a new crate motor than fix what is wrong. I have always been a fan of gmc until this. It's no wonder why everyone has switched to foreign vehicles, the ones made in the us are so cheaply made and priced 3 times there value. |
