Replying to: teri2 (May 08, 2007 10:14 pm) I have a 2002 Surburban 4wd, and a 2008 Acadia 2WD, I used to prefer driving my Surburban over the Uplander I used to have. I can tell you this, the Acadia blows the Surburban away as far as Ride, Quietness, and GAs Millage.   Drive in a 40miles per hour cross wind in your surburban , then drive the Acadia (No comparisson) it's an awsome unit.   The power is great also. After driving my Acadia, the gong back to the Surburban, it seems the Surburban is sluggish... I mean, this Acadia has lots of power.   If it could pull my 30foot travel trailor I would trade my Surburban for an AWD Acadia no questions asked.   Chow Replies to this message: chaos42 (Jan 24, 2009 3:15 am) bobfish (Jan 25, 2009 12:15 pm) chaos42 (Jan 26, 2009 4:23 pm) and 2 more...

Replying to: chaos42 (Jan 26, 2009 4:23 pm) We're getting a little off topic here. Whether to buy is not the issue. Problems and repairs are the issues both of which presume the car has already been purchased. Let's move on.   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper

Replying to: chaos42 (Jan 26, 2009 4:23 pm) Unfortunately, chaos42 is right. My 08 Acadia, while serving my family well, is.....irritating. Dealer still can't fix my thermometer, when it's cold outside and you remote start the vehicle, the thermometer reads a much higher temp than outside, which causes the AC to kick on, which means you get into a nice cold car. Dealer still can't fix the creaking noise coming from my dashboard at all times. And, whenever I take my family vehicle, which is responsible for transporting my wife and two kids, into the dealer for warranty work I have to scream in order to get a loaner so my family isn't stranded. I give up. This was my first GM car and very likely my last. Couldn't be happier I leased since GM now has four (!) cars that are essentially identical...can you say "no resale value?"   I sympathize with chaos42. These cars aren't cheap - mine stickered at $42K. Too bad for GM, the G8 is a great car for a great price but the thought of putting up with GM service totally turned me off. You'd expect for $42K to not only receive exceptional quality but also exceptional service, but at least for me that's not the case.

I`ve owned my 2007 Acadia for almost two years now only having the upgrade for the transmission shift points. In the time I have owned this crossover I have had O problems. Love the way it handles,rides and looks.I wish the gas mileage was better but for its size I don`t think it is that bad.My sister has a 2006 Honda Pilot it looks like a box on wheels rides like a lumber wagon and gets only 2 to 3 mpg over my Acadia.

I bought my Acadia on June 2007 and has been driving for 1.5 years now. Like bobfish, I only updated transmission once and haven't encountered any other problems yet.... I might be lucky, or maybe one day my Acadia will irretate me with a big issue, who knows, but just want to say, not every acadia owner has problem w/ it. It is my first American made and I think when I bought it, I thought I took a big chance, but the truth (to me) is, I wasted my time on worrying.

Replying to: manufan1 (Feb 04, 2009 1:56 pm) i'm so happy for you.i got my acadia back from the dealer 2 days ago and now the seat belt noise keeps going off even though the seat belt is on now we have to take it back so they could fix it.it wasnt like that when we took it there.they have had my vehicle since 1/3/2009 i refuse to drive it but my husband says its fine i just have to snap out of the fear but i'm just not ready yet.i'm sure this is a minor problem but i'm annoyed
