Crap 2009 Acadia

Crap Acadia Says: 2009 Acadia purchased from Andy Mohr Pontiac in Noblesville 4-22-09. Great ride and power for an SUV, however, very strange odor when first turning on blower motor, it simply stinks! Power door locks will not operate when shifting into park intermittently, has happened at least a dozen or more times when putting in park , dealer states it is a “loose relay” after visiting them twice now, and they state it is good to go now. Not a good feeling being trapped! I state it is good to go get my lawyer a call due to GM cannot fix this $41,000 piece of crap! Your Acadia power door lock system will also fail, just a matter of time!

I live in Canada, and have 3 very active boys who all play hockey. So l bought this SUV for all of us to travel around from arena to arena lugging around hockey equipment. Was pleasently suprised on the ride and the preformance. The interior has too much cheap looking plastic for my liking, but since it is getting alot of abuse, it seems to hold up to it. Gets decent gas milage for a vehicle its size. Had a issue with the defrost when l first purchased it. Dealer had to change whole venting system, but other than that, nothing. Tires are very hard to find for it.

Buy a Traverse Instead

What a piece...bought the car in 2019,had 75k miles, one owner. Day 2 check engine light is on. It ended up being a sensor that needed replaced - fine. 6 months later water is leaking in when it rains. Coming in passenger sode by glove box. Sincerely screwed up electrical. Car would not shut off. Leak was from moon roof. A year after purchase AC is blowing hot air. Requires rear lines to be replaced - 2k repair. So..had this car a year and have had about $4500 in repairs which is almost half of what this thing cost me. It's always always something w this car. Which is a shame because it is very comfortable to drive and a great family vehicle with captain seats, dvd system, leather, dual moon roofs, and towing package. It was between a traverse and the acadia and the traverse had much better consumer reviews. But this acadia had so many bells and whistles and I made the wrong choice.

Best SUV Ever?

This may be the best SUV ever. It is a large vehicle so it feels safe. Get's good gas mileage yet has loads of power. The inside feels like a honda odessey except it has more style and loads much more upscale. This vehicle is great for a man or woman and really is a step up from a car or mini van. This is the best SUV yet!

For the price, this is the best value SUV product on the market today. I simply love to drive my Acadia. The exterior design is very attractive. The interior is awesome and has the right space for the kids, entertained with the DVD in the back, plus the extra 3rd bench seats for friends. On long trips we just fold down the 3rd bench for a spacious luggage area. Even then, we can store luggage on the roof rack. Great SUV, great ride and great design. Congrats to GMC.
