Ok I had a 2011 Acadia Denali miles 152k color white I felt in love with the view the color the interior the surround system for Music BUTT! The engine Light came on like in 5months after purchasing it in April 2023 and I went to go get it checked out it turns out this truck had 10 codes that needed to be fixed I didn't want to get rid of the truck because I like it but then again it costs me a pretty penny to fix it, you had to fix the catalyc converter all 3 of them, shocks in the front, starter, and on top of that the motor Die and replaced it. I should of given up on this vehicle!!! But I learned my lesson NEVER AGAIN WOULD I BUY A ACADIA. I got rid of the truck because it still needed more maintenance. It's the Looks of the vehicle that just looks nice but the MOTOR SUCKS!!

I bought my 2011 Acadia Denali used with just 16,000 miles on it. I am pleased with vehicle, yet with this being a Denali model and trading in an '02 Sierra Denali on this 2011, I feel that GMC could have grabbed a few options from the parts bin. I like the acceleration from the direct injected V6. gas mileage is not bad for a vehicle this size. I am averaging 18-20 MPG in town. The wice averages about 15-17 MPG. The bluetooth phone connections are great. I also like the reclining second row seats and the sliding seats also. I know in my Sierra, it had every option available for 2002, teh Acadia should have it all also. Good product, like most GM products, it could use a couple more.

2011 GMC Acadia SLE 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 6A)

We got a new Acadia in March 2011, after a car accident totaled my Equinox. Test drove the Traverse and Acadia and liked the Acadia much more. It drives so smoothly and we love the back up camera. We got the 2 bucket seats in the second row, which is great with 2 small girls. My only complaints are: sun reflection off the air vents and console can be blinding and the windshield wipers located on the same lever as the turn signals take some getting used to. I still turn on my wipers when trying to turn on my signal, and vice versa.

Pleasant Surprise

The quiet ride comfort and body fits were a surprise. I expected quiet and comfort but it was better than expected. This vehicle compares favorably with past new car purchases which include, Cadillac and Jaguar.
