What owners wrote
The contact owned a 2007 GMC Acadia. The contact stated while driving 10 MPH, she heard an abnormal noise and the AC vent started to blow out hot air. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that she parked at a nearby store parking lot and she saw fire at two different locations. The contact stated she was able to enter the store and extinguish the small fire located on the front passenger’s side on the instrument cluster with a gallon of water.
The vehicle has two problems. The radio works, but there is no sound for the back up warning, turn signals or radio. This problem occurs in the GMC acadia, chevrolet traverse and the buick enclave. The problem is likely the premature failure of the bcm or the amp. When driven in the rain, the power steering fails momentarily and it is very difficult to control the vehicle.
