TOO MANY BLIND SPOTS!

In today's car world, most cars run pretty well. My 2016 GMC Terrain runs great. However, I CANNOT STRESS how many blind spots there are. TWICE I went to pull out of a street making a left handed turn and almost hit a car. The metal between the windshield and the right front passenger window is a complete blind spot. I also encounter problems when driving on a highway and I cannot see vehicles on either my left or right side. BE CAREFUL. I cannot wait until I can rid of this vehicle. I do not feel safe driving it whatsoever!

This is my 19th vehicle in only 6 years of driving. I’ve have owned so many vehicles it this is the best overall. It feels and looks more expensive than it is. And I knew when I was shopping I had to have a American compact suv. This one gets better gas mileage, has a higher resale value, has higher safety scores, and according to consumer reports has the highest reliability of the three American (escape,terrain/equinox,Cherokee) utes. I get 25 mpg city and 30 on the highway and I’m not a light footed driver. Mine is fully loaded the navigation works get the WiFi is so fast and convenient. All of the safety systems make it impossible to crash and I have the brown saddle leather seats and they are so good looking. The transmission can have a rough shift here and there but that and some cheap plastics are my only gripe. I would have preferred the v6 but I’m very happy with the 2.4 Ecotec it’s powerful enough and it’s quite and refined.

Nice crossover, needs a bit more power

This is my first Terrain. When I test drove this car, I was actually looking at the Equinox' first. My wife liked the Equinox look but I liked the Terrain better. It looks more like a truck which I liked. The good of the car is that it is very comfortable ride- very quiet, good shock absorption, and comfortable seats with plenty of room for passengers and driver. The bad is the 4 cylinder engine is very weak. It lacks power which many cars normally have. It isn't imperative for me to have a ton of power so it works for this season of life for me but when I'm in high speed traffic it would be nice to have. You feel a bit like a turtle moving slowly along. That being said, it's a good car for a small family looking for a comfortable cruiser or someone who doesn't need a lot of power.

Squealing after 6000 miles

So the car overall is awesome. The SUV is spacious and fits my two large dogs just fine. Only concern is recent constant squealing in the back of the vehicle.

11 Months Dead Battery

This car is great. I've had it for 11 months, have only driven 9000 miles and I really do love my car. However, my battery died. It should be covered under warranty but still.... it should not have died. I don't leave anything plugged in and none of my lights were on. It doesn't make sense.

I love everything about this vehicle (but I do miss the CD player). I'm all about gas mileage and this GM gem has given me as high as 37 MPH on the interstate. Highly recommend this Terrain!!

I recently purchased a 2016 gmc terrain and And all I’ve been doing in the snow is slipping and sliding! I brought it back to the dealership where I purchased it and they said there is nothing wrong with the vehicle! When I make any turns my vehicle is all over the place. Is this normal?

Comfortable, good handling and decent fuel mileage. I originally leased this vehicle (with buyout ) and currently own it. I have had only 1 issue, that being a dead battery in the first 3 months. GMC support sent a ramp truck on a Sunday morning, within a 2 hour time period to my home to retrieve the car. This after having spoken to my dealers service dept ( Prime GMC in Hanover, MA.) they wanted to check everything out and promised it on Monday and wanted to give me a rental, which I declined as we have 2 vehicles in the home. The car was ready on Monday and I was told there was a dead cell in the battery. The electrical system was checked and I have had no other issues with this vehicle since. All service has been done at Prime GMC and I would not consider going anywhere else.
