what does interior space, American cars suck, etc got to do with "check engine light" forum, all not having anything to do with the subject should be deleted.

My audio issues have been intermittant. Sometimes my Nav system does not come up at all requiring me to open unit and re insert disc. Other times my heads up display does not show my radio info even though it is set to do so. Troublesome...

I just left my Acadia at dealer today for several problems, one being the same thing you are experiencing with radio info not coming up on HUD and having to reinsert disc because nothing at all on NAV sometimes. They tell me there is an update for NAV system. As far as other issues go, I am going to put them in other forum since this seems to be limited to check engine light. I only replied to yours because I have the same issue.Hope this helps.

I don't know if American cars really suck b/c I just had my Acadia for 3 months and it is my first American car, so far so good. It just makes me laugh when you say you trust Nissan.
 
I am from China. Almost all my friends/relatives drive Japanese cars and I am so tired of it. I am also tired of Japanese cars' looking. When we were new immigrants we usually bought Japanese (used) because it is cheaper and saves gas. When I had enough money to buy new, I feel shame is I still stick with it.
 
Not to confuse you.... So I bought my Acadia. "My people" like the exterior but some of them do not understand why I take such a big chance on American. (one uncle even said to me, "you should not buy an American car even it is cheaper) - I won't explain, I won't hurt them, but...when I drive my new toy down in the Chinese community I feel so proud that I am different. Saving gas is not the only thing of a car, it also represents your personality. I am happy moved to this country and I am happy with owning American car.

Good for you! It's nice to read an "international" perspective.

You should have stuck with Toyota. This Acacia will be the worst thing you have owned. You will have transmission problems. That "funny" shifting when you try to get on it will be an issue later. Also, try to replace a head light. This vehicle was designed to be taken back to the dealer for everything.

We are having the intermittent engine light also that the dealer can not tell us what it is. After replacing the transmission ($4000), valve stem sensors ($70 each x 2), Misc Leak in engine $Covered under warranty), AC problem ($380)....I keep thinking there is nothing else to break on this vehicle, but it continues to surprise me. DO NOT BUY A GMC ACADIA!!!

I forgot a headlight that can not be replaced by the owner. I think it was $175.
