Leased a 2002 GMC Terrain/Denali on 12/30/2022. 34 miles on car. Loved driving it. I have put on additional 210 miles. On 01/20/2023 after dropping a 'CT' disc at my Oncologist I got back in car and was driving home. Still love my car. In doctor's parking lot the 'Parking' light would not go out when put in reverse. Same issue two times until I went into drive and car moved a bit. Then reverse, all ok. At stop light just beyond MD office I turned left. Initially I crossed intersection (yellow engine light went on) and gave gas pedal a push to go 45 MPH (legal speed on a 2 lane West bound). Two lanes on opposite side head East. All of the sudden foot still on gas speed drops to 25 MPH but Tachometer now reads 4000! Scared looking rear view mirror and 3-4 cars behind close to my bumper now and before slowing down hit their bakes. I being panicked took foot of gas and tried to go slowly forward again to get out of way. Same issue with 25 MPH only and now tachometer reading between 3500-4000. Really panicked as those 45 MPH (or more) cars slammed on their brakes. Were not so nice, but of course! Now went to side of road and stopped. Waited a couple of minutes started again but went no more than 25 MPH with a burning smell. Got to a parking lot and hit 'SOS'. 2 sets of 2 hours each no tow arrived. Talked to 'SOS' a number of times. Finally called wife she behind me with flashers and me with flashers drove home. No more than 20-25 MPH. Tow arrived and driver could not get car in reverse so pushed into street in our complex. Finally pushed enough to use winch to get car aboard. Took to dealer in FT Lauderdale (Sheehan) been there one week today and thy called at 5:00PM car finished. Admits transmission problem. Me what could I do? Dealer says to pick car up. One week for repair of this brand new car? My wife is petrified as to what happened. Doesn't want to take a chance to ride in it. Scary ride that day for certain. This all seems so one sided to me. That hurts.

My wife was driving to work when the sunroof just exploded. She said there were no vehicles in the oncoming lane nor was she following anyone. She heard a loud sound and glass came in landing on her from the sunroof. Right now it is currently at the GM dealership to be investigated by their service department.

Mientras conducía el panel de instrumento digital donde están los relojes se apagó en su totalidad. El auto siguió funcionando pero no podía ver nada en el panel porque estaba literalmente muerto. Me moví hacia un costado de la carretera y apagué el carro. Lo volví a prender pero el panel siguió muerto. El carro si trabajaba. Llegue con mucho temor a casa y lo envié al concesionario donde lo compré. Me dijeron que era el panel de instrumentos y que lo tenían que cambiar.
