Glove compartment light

Is it even possible that in 2013 a vehicle can come with no light in the glove compartment. Could this be a factory omission or cost-cutting. I need a flashlight at night or I must to exercise my sense of touch!
Great SUV with some flaws

Overall I love our Acadia. It’s nice and roomy while it does feel a bit underpowered, the large benefit is the how it actually accelerates faster than at it feels. The main issue is the that they didn’t beef up the engine/transmission, otherwise it would be a great car. The maintenance costs are very high. If buying a used one and taking it to a repair shop, plan 2k a year for repairs. Mainly minor items, but still annoyances. The largest gripe is the captain seats, having many hinges to keep greased. Overall I won’t sell it, due to the space it brings. I wouldn’t own one as a sole car though.

I gave it two stars because at first glance this car is the full package , i mean rear backup camera, automatic trunk , the whole shabangz . You’d think it was pretty safe too considering it’s size and specs , that is until it shuts off on you while you’re driving a busy busy Main Street or highway. You gotta know how to stop a powerless car and throw those hazards on FAST because if not, you’re toast . I have a two year old daughter. That drives with me everywhere . No mechanic knows what to do, every forum I’ve read mentions the same issue but absolutely no fix. Unsafe unsafe and just a money pit . Don’t even do it

With less than 21,000 miles on this car, I had a problem getting the shift in park and was unable to turn the vehicle off. Repairs were approximately $500. One year later, the same problem occurred for another $500. Now (another year later with 21,000 miles), my all wheel drive & stabilitrack went belly up. I really loved the look and style of this vehicle and having the benefit of a third row. I had seriously thought about trading this vehicle in for another Acadia, but after reading all the problems, I may have to think twice about it. I have not yet brought my vehicle in to evaluate cost to repair all wheel drive because of recent extended hospital stays and rehab. Will find out cost to repair next week. I am sick about this! No vehicle with 21,000 miles should be having these problems!
