Not worth the money

2024 GMC Acadia Denali 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
4 of 4 people found this review helpful

had it 4 months and the right side lower molding started falling off, dealership said it had been installed improperly during production. At the 8 month period vehicle would not start, back to the dealer who said it was only a low charge on the battery, 1 month later we took a trip and the second morning vehicle was dead, had to jump it off, at 11 months vehicle would not start again back to the dealer this time was told the right front headlight and the right rear taillight were bad along with a problem with the super cruise system (which had never been used) causing the battery to go dead. End of owning a GMC product traded this piece of junk off. Will never recommend or own a GMC badged vehicle again.

Well less than a month, and 1150 miles brakes problems! ESC, ABS, Traction control, and brake lights all on. Now in the shop! Not an impressive start!

Looks sharp, drives smooth, updated tech

Matt, 11/02/2024
2024 GMC Acadia Elevation 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
6 of 7 people found this review helpful

Needed a new car as our family grew to two children. Wanted 3 rows but an SUV that looked sharp, drove smooth, had lots of room. Loved the new Acadia immediately, super sharp looking vehicle so they knocked it out of the park with the redesign. Got the Elevation package, black out package, luxury package with moon roof, and super cruise. Car is on 22 inch wheels, black paint and rims. Interior is really nice and premium feeling and love the massive screen. Took a week or two to learn all the features but absolutely love driving this car with family or on solo rides. Only quirk I noticed is no door hook for hanging clothes. I’d say get super cruise if you do any highway driving. Cabin is very quiet and spacious, great seating position, seats are comfortable. The car isn’t a race car but it defintely can zip you along the highway especially when you put in sport mode. Only real knock I have is the sound system doesn’t have as much umph as other cars I have had. Wife has a 2020 Acura RDX and I think that sound system is better. May upgrade to have stronger bass but that’s a personal performance, average person probably won’t care as much.

We Just got the new 2024 GMC Acadia Denali - we love it! Much more space than most mid size suvs and drives super smooth. It was a great redesign effort on GMCs part - it is beautiful to look at!
