Love all but seats/headrests

My wife and I traded our 2000 4Runner for the 2010 Acadia. 2nd row captain's chairs for our kids as well as easy access to the 3rd row were two of the main selling points. We like everything about the vehicle other than the gas mileage (16.5 MPG overall with much highway driving) and the front seats. The curve of the seat along with the forward angle of the headrest make it impossible to sit comfortably. I've tried every adjustment possible and can't get my upper back and neck to stop hurting. Kids love it. Friends love the look. The seats are the only problem.

2010 Acadia bought brand new 12/31/2009 with only 108 miles on it. Exactly 2 weeks from the date of purchase and I watched it leave on a tow truck last night! I picked up school kids and then got a low oil pressure alarm (stop engine) on the display! The alarm would not stop and I pulled over in the nearest parking lot and phoned the dealership! Stranded for 3 hours with 3 small school kids because of my BRAND NEW CAR is not OK! I have wanted this car for over 2 years, and now I dont want it at all. Dealer says it is 'probably just a sensor". Guess what, I dont care if it is a sensor, or a gasket or a loose belt. New car on tow truck = me NOT HAPPY

Should have been a recall as soon as you knew the engines were junk

Ok 1st; The whole thing about it rolling back only happens on the FWD version. this is not a defect. I test drover the fwd and loved it. 2nd; i got awd because i have a cabin in the mountains nearby. the vehicle is really roomy and has a great powertrain. The Bose system is great. The display panels look great. very decent acceleration when needed. 288 HP pushes 3196lbs easily. If you are looking for something roomy and made with quality workmanship this would be a great family vehicle. This vehicle will grow with your growing family. seats 8 ot 7 if you opt for captains chairs in the second row. Enjoy.

Do not buy a 2010 gmc acadia. We bought one and didn't even have it for 24 hours and it broke down so fixed the timing chains well got to drive it for 2 days then back in the shop because of fuel injectors so fixed those then cadalaic converters went out fixed those then put a new starter in and it's still running like crap. My daughter was 12 days old when it went into the shop to get fixed she is now 7 months old and I still don't have the supposed reliable family vehicle
