 Since may 2012 our check air bag light has repeatedly appeared. the dealer told us that when that light is on, the airbags will not deploy. the vehicle has been taken to the dealer to be repaired at least 4 times. the most recent of which was on december 20, 2012. we were told gm discovered a new repair that they were 90% certain would fix the problem with the passenger airbag detector. the light appeared again tonight, less than one month after the new repair. gmc has been completely non-responsive. the dealer (koons) would only repair the car when the light appears, which is a problem when it flashes intermittently. the fact that we cannot rely on our airbags to deploy is an extreme safety concern. *tr

 When i tried to park my 2011 acadia sle, the accelerator became stuck causing the front of my car to crash into a health club wall. when i saw people running inside the health club i thought i had rolled over someone. so, i tried to back up and when i put the car in reverse it shot backwards with a rolling force and hit an iron post. to keep the wheels from continuously rolling, i had to slam the gear into park and turn the ignition off. i believe this accident should be investigated further before someone else is injured or killed.
