One month ago I took my 2009 GMC Acadia to the dealer because I noticed a smell and steam coming from it. They did some minor repairs and wanted me to bring it back in a few days for more work as they spotted a small oil leak but couldn't figure out where it was coming from. The next day after driving the vehicle 20 miles when I put it into park there was smoke coming through the vents. It quickly went from what appeared to be overheating, although no warning lights ever came on, to a full fire! I was able to get my children and sister out of the vehicle. I called 911 and fire responders put the fire out. Thankfully no one was injured.
EXCELLENT CHOICE IN CROSSOVERS

I have been throughly stunned at the ride of this crossover. Pricey but worth the money. GM needs to look at some extras to keep the customers happy like seat memory standard on SLTs. Turning radius and fuel efficiency was very good. I topped at 27 MPG at 59 MPH freeway. I have driven about 400 miles so far and very satisfied

Looks 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 won't 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.
Stay away from this car! Wish I would've known

We've had our Acadia since 2013, bought it with only 30k miles, one owner, clean record. Within a month, things started going wrong: sunroof leaking, power steering went out, timing belt went bad, headlights burned out. Within 3 months of purchasing, the fuel injectors went out while driving on a road trip, alarms were going off telling us an engine fire could happen, it was horrifying. Then came the computer motherboard, spark plugs, coils, struts, and the continuous recalls that required us taking it in for those to be done. After spending $28k on the car, over the years we have probably paid another $20k in repairs. Think I'm done? Nope, last year the Cat Converter went out, engine mount was bad, front axel was busted, transmission needed to be fixed (again), coils had to be replaced again and our headlights only last about 6 months. We have kept it being that we paid so much for it and in repairs, we will get literally nothing for it on a trade because no one wants these things. We've been told by multiple mechanics that they see more 2009 Acadia's in their shops than any other vehicle and that GMC should NEVER have released these for sale. I was a loyal GM buyer but I will NEVER give them another dime as long as I live.
Piece of junk

I have had this car for 3 years,that's 2 1/2 years to long. If you have kids do not purchase this vehicle. It WILL leave you setting along the road a lot. It has left me setting for the last time,once it's fixed it will find a new home. Have had the timing chain replaced, coil packs go bad all the time,and the last breakdown I have no idea what it is yet. Millionaires vehicle!!! You have to be a millionaire to keep up with the break downs. I would not recommend anyone getting one. I will never own another 3.6 engine vehicle!
