  GMC broke my heart and my bank - 2011 GMC Acadia
  By ana mata - November 2 - 7:25 pm

  Worst vehicle I have ever own and I have had different types from a chevy to a ford to a BMW. Never had the problems or recalls, I have with gmc. I bought it because I always heard how good GMC is, very disappointed. My ford KA(found on road dead) probe had better maintenance expenses and has been more reliable than GMC. Not planning on getting anymore GMCs in my life time even if they are gifts.

  meh - 2011 GMC Acadia
  By ghostface2009 - November 14 - 6:01 pm

  My wifes vehicle, she likes it, its safe and good in snow with AWD, looks nice, lots of interior room, etc. Im a little more picky - gas mileage pretty bad, the head rest leans too far forward, so not comfortable for me in drivers seat, and at 58K we had to get the timing cover resealed because it was leaking oil. Luckily, covered under powertrain warranty so did not cost me a penny. Also, very minor, but the rubber footing on the emergency brake popped off. I popped it back on and its been fine ever since. I have a 2005 Camry with 270K miles and no issues (knock on wood). Starting to worry about this vehicles longevity, dont think it will hold up as well as the Camry.

  Dont do it - 2011 GMC Acadia
  By merbeamish - May 17 - 3:34 pm

  Purchased a used (28k miles) 2011 Acadia in April 2012. Test drove and was tempted to buy a Toyota Highlander or VW Touareg but loved the body style and features of the Acadia. DVD player broke after a week of owning it. Fortunately it was just barely covered under warranty. A couple months later, at 300 miles past warranty the back hatch broke (wouldnt open manually or remotely). $600 to fix. May 2013, a year after buying the vehicle were on our 2nd time fixing the air conditioning (approx $1000/time), and theres an oil drip.

  slush factor & interior faux pas - 2011 GMC Acadia
  By mundocovar - June 28 - 3:25 pm

  amidst looking for a good crossover for my size 6-5... while i am an avid fast driver, we need the room to lug around at least 4 big people without having to get a mini van or a suburban monster. we test drove the car but the title of crossover is not there. the car feels like a small truck. handling is slushy and feels a bit delayed. the room inside has with great features. but the quality of the finish turned us off. the sun roof(s) were covered with a flimsy slide cloth that did not close well and that would be torn off at the first fight between my children, sunroof hardware was exposed were tie rods would lead to finger stubbing cleanup .unlike the toyota HIGHLANDER clean desig

  $48000 car that does not have a compass - 2011 GMC Acadia
  By buckeye42 - June 7 - 2:00 pm

  Did not find out until after puchase that you can not get a compass on your Denali if you have the Bose entertainment system and the rear entertainment dvd player. Seems kind of cheap of GM to go high end on car but low end on every day useful items.
