I love this car! I have had 0 issues with this car in the 7 yrs. I have had it. Plenty of room for my needs. 42K miles on it now, I still get compliments about how nice my car is. Went on a roughly 3K road trip and it was comfortable and handled the roads perfectly. I love it!

Not for the snow

Bought this SUV as a family hauler. We live in the Pacific Northwest so AWD is great for the rain. Problem is that the Denali mode does not allow for snow chains...ever. This was never told to us at the dealership and now we feel pretty stupid for not asking up front but it did not occur to us. Don't know if models with smaller rims might accommodate chains but don't upgrade to the Denali model is you want to spend any time in the snow.

We have 40K miles on this car and have needed A/C repair three times. Thank goodness we purchased the extended warranty. Oh and don't bother trying to update the navigation system - dealership had to order it from the mother ship and then wiped out all our saved locations during the 2-hour upload and now it malfunctions frequently. :(

I wanted to like the Acadia but after numerous repairs, several for the same issue (A/C not working) we sold it and bought a Honda Pilot. Much happier and zero issues.

Had issues with a noise from the front end. Didn't pay attention until it affected the shifting. Found out it's a transmission issue, $4400 issue btw. By the time I took it in I was 5000 miles past powertrain warranty. GMC's response? Have a nice day, you're screwed, don't expect us to help, have a nice day.
