Overview & Reviews
For 2009 the GMC Acadia gets a more powerful engine, Bluetooth connectivity, real-time traffic updates for the navigation system, available heated and cooled seats and a reshuffling of option packages.
- Plenty of passenger and cargo space, smooth ride, easy to drive considering its size, above-average tow capacity for a crossover.
- Some subpar interior trim, transmission can be slow to downshift.

Dont Bother To Buy - 2009 GMC Acadia
By Mel-KS - December 29 - 5:52 pmThis vehicle has the transmission problems of previous models. Ours had 3600 miles when it died in the middle of a busy highway. Towed to a dealership, and the dealership was unable to figure out what was wrong with the vehicle after nearly four days. GMC absolutely no help and not willing to honor the warranty or have the vehicle brought back to us since it died more than 350 miles from our home. Best they would do is provide a crappy rental car. I would avoid this vehicle--when GMC goes under, youll be stuck with a money pit your mechanic will love.

Sleep on it a few weeks first! - 2009 GMC Acadia
By kerry - December 8 - 2:32 pmLooks great on the outside. The interior quality of the dash, seats, & doors, door handles, etc. was a letdown. Visibility out of rear window not great, you wont see a small car on your bumper. Sensors and backup monitor a must. Having to upgrade better quality leather seats, CD player, & install backup monitor due to visibility issues just two weeks after purchase.
