From good to dead

My 2019 GMC Acadia started out wonderful! It began having shift issues when I would shift to park and I would get an error message asking me to shift to park. A few months later a steering error showed on the screen and followed with a loss of a/c. From there the car started sputtering and the just died. I have had about 10 parts replaced and no luck. I’m simply devastated.

I love the styling, the ride, the storage, the peppy 6 cylinder engine, the quality leather seats, the storage and pulling ability....and just everything! I have a 2019 SLT-1 and that is so well equipped. It's beautiful and is the perfect size for me...not too big, not too small, Goldilocks says it's "just right!" UPDATE: Yes still love it. No problems, great running vehicle, paint still looks beautiful, everything works perfect. I am very happy with the perfect car for me!!

2019 GMC Acadia Denali 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6A)

I have owned 3 previous Acadia’s, I was not aware of how much they had cut the size of the vehicle, it is almost a small size SUV, Also my drivers seat is very uncomfortable, it does not have near as much movement as my previous Acadias. I am sorry I bought it and I am trying to trade it.

To complicated

Overall a nice SUV. Back up camera not very clear, the one on my Mustang GT is 10 times better in clarity. The radio is too complex, . Did I mention NO CD PLAYER. Some college idiot must have came up with the complexity on this SUV. I'm 54 and would much rather a simple to operate car than this. Has a auto shift down when braking going down hill,hate it. Now the GOOD Average fuel economy 24-26 MPG It handles well, has good power and shifts well. It is well for setting 5, but the 3rd row seating is only for kids. Nice option is the buttons on the door handles to lock/unlock the doors. Nice leather on the dash and steering wheel. I only have 184 miles on it. Maybe in time I will get use to its complicity or ignore it. If you love all the extras, usb, bluetooth, on star, xm radio, and so on the this would be a great SUV for you. What would be awsome is if they would go back to the days where you could order a car the way you wanted, not the way the manufacturer tells you what you get. Very comfortable to ride in, I have back problems but this rides very nice. To sum up as you can tell, I HATE the radio, But from what I can tell so far everything else very good. Warning about the oil, it takes dexos oil, so make sure you use the correct stuff. I now have 3,000 miles on it. It would be more, but i perfer to drive my Santa fe over the Acadia due to its simplicity. The reason i purchased the Acadia was it had a V6 and not a little cylinder turbo.

Denali no longer a luxury package

The 2019 Acadia is a good sized SUV. I like everything, but 2 items. The Denali woodgrain is metal and rather ugly. What I hate the most are the squeaky brakes. It is embarrassing. I've had them checked, but the tech said they are ok. An SUV that costs that much shouldn't sound like a junker.
