ELECTRICAL PROBLEM? ANYONE? by lemonowner08

Okay, have a new issue. The other evening after shopping, I came home, pulled into the garage, put the car in "park", turned off the engine, removed the keys and exited the car. I was the only one in the vehicle. Then, I went around the front of the vehicle to the front passenger side and opened the door so I could remove some packages. When I opened the door, the alarm (bell), that tells you that you have left the keys in the car, dinged 3 times. I removed the packages and shut the door, then proceeded in front of the car, and it honked once, then, all of the doors locked. This is the second time this has happened in a week. I am glad I never leave the keys in the car! Anyone else had this issue or doesn anyone else have a fix? Please post.

I have an 08 Acadia and it rained last week. Water started coming out of the roof vent behind the passenger seat. Did you ever find out if there was a recall on this? Any information would be appreciated. Thanks!

This a very widespread problem with the Acadia. Call your dealer and get an appointment to get it fixed.

my husband was going to work at 3:00 a.m he made a right turn and the left wheel broke away from the rivets. we thought the axel broke. i had it towed to the dealer and they said i must have hit something in the road. i was baffled at there attitude.i live in nyc and there are potholes everywhere. if this vehicle cant take a pothole it is a piece of shit.the rim is bent a little and there fore we hit something now they wont fix it i have to call my insurance for them to fix it. i thought that was a safety issue but they dont there exact words were we havent heard of this happening before so its your problem to deal with.i really wanted to buy american and i love the look of the acadia but i think next time i'll go foreign american cars are garbage the workmanship is inferior.well i tried .if you hit a pothole and your wheel falls off thats a weak car.there was no other damage to the car.please tell me if this happened to anyone else.oh by the way my vehicle was leaking also it took 3 tries to finally fix

Not necessarily. The rim could just as well have been bent as a result of the wheel breaking off.

thats how i fell i tried to state that at the dealership but they said the engineers would say it was my fault if they saw the 3 inch bend in the rim i called a lawyer and they said basically im stuck with the lease.right now i dont want the vehicle any more i have 1and a half years left on the lease.geico is supposed 2 come and look at the damage if they fix it i still dont feel safe in this acadia.this is the first time i leased a vehicle i'm wondering can i trade it in at another car company .you can stick a fork in me i'm done with GMC

You may want to get a third party to make a determination on the cause of the bent rim. In the meantime, I suggest posting your lease question in GMC Acadia Lease Questions.

Compass by zoesdad

The compass embedded in the rearview mirror of my 08 SLT (9,000 miles) went dark a few weeks ago and hasn't come back on. All other systems are working properly. Does anyone know if this is an easy fix? Do I have to take it to the dealership if I want it fixed? Thanks

Did u ever find out what was wrong?
My 2007 acadia didn't start the other day-I guess there is a fuel sensor behind the left rear tire that was bad-my gauge read that i had 1/2 tank gas but i was really empty!
