I think they hit a home run with the body style interior is clean most controls are easy to use.The one complaint I have is the push button shift it is awkward to use and you need to look at it to shift go back to the stick.

Transmission failed after 1700 miles

Everything worked well for a few weeks until the transmission failed. After two weeks of being in the dealers shop, they still can’t tell me if they can even get a new transmission. Poor quality and service for such a nice looking SUV.

Doesn't like deep snow

I love the car in the sense that it's great gas mileage, looks sharp and drives nice but if you drive through a couple of inches of snow, the snow sticks to the inside of the wheels and you end up with a horrible shake. Poor design on the wheels. Also, the tires that come on the vehicle are horrible! It's unfortunate that you have to purchase snow tires on a leased vehicle. Vehicles sold in the Midwest should come with better all season tires otherwise, you are sliding all over the road in the winter, very scary!

I think the shift buttons are dangerous

Hit your head getting in or out. Hit your head on the rear lift gate. It’s not hinged high enough. No adjustment. Annoying. Made for a 5 foot tall person. Rides good and has a nice base interior Looks nice with blackout grille and wheels If you pay attention 9th gear is rarely used. Even at higher speeds. Low speed pre ignition gears I’m guessing. Shift buttons are not intuitive. I consider them a hazard compared to the conventional lever. Really stupid. Had this thing almost two years and still don’t like it.

Computer problems that have no fix

I purchased my 2021 Terrain in December 2020. I have had many computer issues with the car that make many features unavailable and there is no fix. The car is still drivable but offers new problems daily. They are intermittent but reoccurring. The dealer tells me there is currently no fix and that I have to wait for a software update. This is the first GMC car I have owned and now regret my purchase.
