Like everybody that owns a 2008 GMC Acadia, I have had the car in the shop numerous times. Broke down with transmission failure, power sterring column went. Just got back after 4th oil leak. I contacted GMC and with our TARP funds, they have a call center overseas to handle customer complaints. Very poor customer service with a car that is built by engineers and yet seems to have lots of common issues. It could be a good car if it did not have so many issues. be careful of 2013 model as it is redesigned and you could be starting over with issues lots of us have.

Wont buy gm again. Ride was awesome, motor was super fast and quite then theres the bad stuff. Water in door wiring harnesses which eventually blew the Bose amp, water pumps, the tcm light for the trans kept coming on and putting car in limp mode dealer doesnt diagnose all they want to do is rebuild the trans, lift gate broke I never did fix it. This is what I have bought foreign cars for the last 15 yrs. Dealers have never heard of these issues however google is over run with complaints.

I've had the absolute worst issues with this car! I've had to replace the engine and transmission, seatbelts, airbags, head lights 7 times in the almost 4 years I've had it. Timing chains there's like 3 of them. My car has spent way too much time in the shop. It leaks oil and I bought 4 new tires and had to keep putting air in the them also my tire sensors are out of wack they tell me the wrong tire needs air. My car is fully loaded but not everything works....as long as there is something wrong with the car the remote start does not work. I've had more problems with that damn Stabilitrak system then I care to count. Had to replace the battery a couple of times, Dvd player won't spit out the dvd so that no longer works, backup camera not sure why that doesn't work but it would cost a ridiculous amount just to be told why it doesn't work. My side mirrors, only one side folds in now. Issues with the tailgate not working properly. My car is a pretty pos, she looks good and is fully loaded but not all cylinders are firing. What makes it all worse is while I'm paying for all the repair bills I'm still making car payments on this POS. I don't recommend this car at all! The good doesn't outweigh the bad.

light housing melts

Until recently, I would say that I am the proud owner of a 2008 GMC Acadia. Until we went into have the daytime running light replaced. We have replaced several in the 5 years we have owned the car. What has made us very upset is that the last time we went into replace a burnt out bulb, we were informed that this would not be a $100 repair, but instead a $1000 repair. We were told that the plastic housing that reflects the light out is a $1000 item. The housing has literally melted around the light. We were also informed that the other side was doing the same thing. So in the end, it will cost us $2,000. This is a flaw, not normal wear and tear and should be covered by GMC, but no!
Nicest POS I’ve ever owned

This car was great for the first two months. Then I had to get the transmission module replaced. A few months later an AC fan or something of the sorts went out causing my car to just chug and not run right. Then this last year my window controls went out, 10 MPG in town, power steering pump went out, front and rear suspension went out AND my subilitrack/awd went out. Sure did ride nice to begin with and I loved my interior gadgets but it was the biggest money pit ever. So glad to be out of it.
