Used 2008 GMC Acadia Consumer Reviews
GMC Acadia
The car handles well on the edges, and you can feel the sporty ride on the highway and the braking system is actually great. The car has a very attractive exterior and my brick red interior with the entertainment system, navigation, dvd, rear camera and many other options and luxury makes driving this crossover far better than any other.
The good and bad
Pros: Good Space and Featurues. Seats 7 Remote Start Heads up Display Drives well - After the transmission recall to adjust the shifting. Cons: Bad Sunroof! They have had severe problems with them leaking. I took mine back 4 times and it still leaked. Even after the GM recall work. They gave me a rental car and the rental person told me I was the 3rd leaking Acadia rental that week. Leather - Not as good as competitors. Doesn't wear well. Chrome Interior - Can blind you if the sun hits it right.

this car stinks
My husband bought me this car. It's been back to the dealer about 16 times in 11 mos. it's been at the shop way over 30 days, Two days after picking the car car up it flooded out, so now my new car smells like a swamp. almost got myself and my children in an accident because it revs out to 8000 rpm in order to go to 40 mph. This car is dangerous, I get 6 mpg the water sprays in when it's raining. the window switch has blown out 4 times tranny not working right steering colom replaced thrush washer replaced the head liner due to water damage but they can't find a leak This car is a $700. a month peice of junk!! I have to rent a car to go away with because this car unreliable & unsafe.
1 week and love it!
Just purchased and love it! Comfort for our family of 5. Beats the heck out of a minivan! Loaded with features. DVD controls and wireless headsets a huge benefit for parents! Ride is great. Does need some transmission fine tuning from GMC. Super quiet drive. Remote start is fantastic. Looks superb!
Very Good Vehicle
We bought a 08 FWD Acadia last year and really like it. It's been very reliable, build quality appears to be excellent (big suprise to me, I think GM has been making junk for years) and Driving dynamics are good such a large truck. No sqeaks, no problems whatsoever and we have 8K miles on it so far. Room is best of all the similar vehicles checked out other than mini van. Drove the CX9, the Ford Taurus X, Armada, Higlander, Pilot (real dissapointment), this was the winner. Only complaints, no backup camera (got aftermarket)and it really needs one. Cloth interior is wearing already and Mileage is not as advertised. Complaints about funky trany are overblown.
