New Car But Costly Repairs

For some reason, GMC autos have a problem with headlamps going out. These are not covered by warranty and are very expensive to replace. A few months ago I had to replace one headlamp at a cost of $357. Last week the passenger side headlamp assembly went out and the cost was $1,621! How GMC can build a car with headlamps that expensive to replace is a mystery and does not speak highly of the quality or design of their product. The car is comfortable on the inside; driver and passenger seating is comfortable. The car handles adequately for a front wheel drive car but is very underpowered. More maintenace problems. $2,000 to fix a seal problem and the GMC mechanic advised that additional repairs will be needed in the future at a probable cost of $5,000! Decided to trade in the auto.

This vehicle is fun to drive and has everything I want in a SUV. This is our third Acadia and we have never been disappointed.

This is my third Acadia Denali and it is the best vehicle. Comfortable, easy to drive and great gas mileage. Have had this one for 2 1/2 years and 62000 miles. We do a lot of traveling and on the interstates we get 23 miles per gallon. Best vehicle yet. This is a 2016 Acadia Denali purchased new in November 2015.

I bought the car on a promise that they would fix the vibration problem, which seemed to be related to tires. The car gives you a chair massage as you drive, like a tire is out of balance. Car also pulled to the right. First trip, replaced one tire and aligned wheels. "car fixed"!!! Drove home still vibration problem but not as bad, car still pulled to right. Second Trip, re-balanced tires, second alignment. "car fixed". Drove home, pull is gone, car handles great. Still have vibration, although better than before. Am doing some trouble shooting myself before returning for third trip to dealer. Hopefully, I'll get to driver it to somewhere besides the dealership 50 miles away.

If you are a family person wanting the safest ride for your kids or grandkids as in my situation, this GMC Arcadia was the right choice. Except for a defective part installed at the factory, the car has been most reliable and dependable. While using the fold-down third-row seat, it was perfect for the long ride to Disneyland with the children using the optional Wi-Fi and their own air conditioner controls, made it a pleasure for the adults. There was still plenty of room for storage of the luggage and a snack cooler. A great AM-FM radio/CD sound system with aux input and satellite radio. Conveniently placed 12volt and USB connections. And the best safety feature of all is the built-in On_Star telephone/navigational system that gives me the great comfort my better half is never alone while out on the roadways.
