While parked battery acid was leaking inside of the vehicle from the positive post. The driver had the vehicle towed to the dealer for analysis, and the mechanic replaced the battery, but the problem still exists. This problem caused damages to other battery components, fenderwell and frame. The consumer requested reimbursement.

We heard that there was a recall on the battery. But we have no info., on who to contact. Please, let us know of your findings? thank you! robert jenkins

Problem has occurred two times. First time the side mounted battery post leaked battery acid, spraying it on the engine/frame and wiring. The vehicle was not under warranty. The dealer remedied the problem by cleaning, replacing the battery and painting the vehicle. GMC knew of the problem, and because of a second occurrence of the same problem consumer must pay to have the same work done. Here is no recall on the battery as of yet.
