GMC makes garbage!

My GMC SIERRA 1500 w/ 5.3l V8 has been at the dealer for 5 months waiting on an engine due to lifter failure. Worst customer service ever. Don't by from GMC.

Avoid

Issue after issue. This truck is serviced religiously by GMC dealership we purchased from. AC went out in February, CV joints had to be replaced in July, computer system went out in August, transmission went out in October.

best in class

My GMC Sierra is the best ride I have had in all the years that I have been driving. I started driving in 1977. I love my new Sierra.

Transmission failure is very common

Transmission failure is very common. After 30+ emails and calls to Gmc they have responded with the same amount of emails and phone calls however there’s no resolution to my problem I keep getting pushed to someone that cannot make a decision in regards to the transmission failure that I am experiencing. I am reporting this transmission problem to the national transportation highway safety administration in Washington DC if you were having the same issue you should do the same

This is an attractive and enjoyable vehicle.

I traded my Chevrolet Silverado for this GM Certified GMC Sierra 1500. It is an attractive and enjoyable vehicle. Some years ago I had a GMC and really prefer them over a Chevrolet. This vehicle is just what I need for hauling and general driving.
