Love my Terrain! Lots of room for kids storage in the back. 4c motor has given me some trouble, but overall very happy with this vehicle.

Remote state, fuel pump, condenser, heated seat, those are all the features I had to replace before 50,000 miles. Rebuilt engine, because drive chain was under a recall and it warped and destroyed my engine, all they paid for was for the recalled part, all before 70,000. That set me back $1,700. It is the nicest, worst car I have ever bought. It looks great, and has great features, but if your car isn't running it all defeats the purpose.

DO NOT BUY THIS CAR

I must say I did a year worth of research before I decided to purchase another SUV. This vehicle seemed to be a good choice according to the reviews, well I was very disappointed to have to come back to the dealership multiple times for recalls and repairs needed that were covered under my warranty. This issue I have is eagerly and reliability. I have a family with four children and every time I ride I this vehicle I got nervous out our safety. I contacted GMC CEO directly and expressed my disappointment of the vehicles performance which resulted in me having $2,400 worth of repairs covered through my warranty. Just a couple months later my vehicle cut off while driving on the highway. I returned it back to GMC only to have a oil consumption completed and no issues or codes to show up on the diagnostic test. GMC customer service then closed my complaint and wished me luck. So I’m stuck with a unsafe SUV that I’m supposed to drive my children in. GMC refuses to take the vehicle back and satisfy the loan therefore I was forced to purchase another vehicle and pay on this SUV that isn’t safe to drive. I will not say that all vehicle through GMC are bad but the Terrian needs to be taken off the market. This vehicle will end up killing a family at some point.

i traded in a crv to get the terrian because i thought i was going to get better mpg, wrong..dont buy this if you expect the mpg gmc says it will get, i have had it 2 months and i took it out of state xmas and i am getting 26 on highway, 6 miles under what gmc says.. in town about the same 5 miles under....if mpg doesnt matter to you i would recommend this suv, it rides much better than the crv, much roomier..other than the mpg great suv
