#452 of 495 Re: Grinding noise driver's side front wheel [orrichard] by chaos42 Jul 18, 2009 (6:13 am)
Replying to: orrichard (Jul 16, 2009 5:54 pm) sweety thats what happened to me.my husband was making a right turn and the left wheel fell off and they tried to blame it on us. the rivets came loose from the tire i'm not completly sure how to explain it but after everything was said and done it was $7759.00 worth of damage.after they so called fixed it after having it for30 days it has not been right since.when we go over 60 mph the stirring wheel shakes.tell them to check by the wheels if your wheel falls off please post it because they said there was no record of this happening before so thats why GM didn' pay for it i had to go through my insurance.they didn't even supply us with a rental car. right now i have to go to court with these fools they know the vehicle is unsafe but they will deny,deny,deny i don't trust the dealership at all watch them!!!
#453 of 495 Engine Trouble with 09 Acadia by stlddplums Jul 19, 2009 (11:01 am)
I bought my Acadia 6 weeks ago and it's been in the shop twice already with a 3rd scheduled for next week. It's missing and jerking around whenever it feels like it. Just the other day my wife is on a 3 hr trip and it starts doing this and the check engine light came on. She took it to the local dealership and they told her that it misfired and so they just reset the code and told her to take it back to our dealer so they could look into it.   Has anyone else heard of this type of problem?
#454 of 495 SLT2 BLU by 1monstermofo Jul 20, 2009 (2:59 pm)
I purchased a 2007 acadia fully loaded. In Feb of this year (09) the stabili track sensor came on and the engine began making noise. I was able to drive the car into the dealer ship although under reduced power. The long and short is that GMC customer service has determined that I have abused the car by not having the last oil change record and that the car was run without oil. They will not honor the warranty and I am having the BBB take them to arbitration. I really was excited about this car when it first came out. I purchased to new cars in 07, one was a Lincoln and the other is this acadia. I wish I had bought two Lincoln's. Any one with similar problems I would love to hear your story.

Replying to: goodmaj1 (Jun 28, 2009 7:21 pm) Just a quick comment on the ford. I purchased two new cars in 07. One was the Acadia, (that now sits as 5000 pound paper weight) the other was the Lincoln MKZ. I almost bought the MKX, which is the cross over. it was to small for me but my wife loves her MKZ. It has never given us one bit of trouble. It is still to small for me but it is very comfortable for the family. Replies to this message: coltsfan (Jul 24, 2009 5:36 am)

Replying to: 1monstermofo (Jul 23, 2009 1:45 pm) I know exactly what you mean! I loved the Acadia - was just a perfect car - size, power, options, but it's turned out to be a complete failure. We didn't have all the problems I've seen listed here, but we were really afraid how the car would hold up long term. We really do like the Ford Edge, but it is smaller. If GM would get itself straighten out, the Acadia could be awesome! Maybe some day......

#459 of 495 Re: Acadia shutting off on corners STILL [mikekris] by rarewood Aug 13, 2009 (7:28 am)
Replying to: mikekris (Jul 01, 2009 5:38 am) I have the same problem with my 08. It shuts off when I am going about 68 miles an hours in cuise control. I have had it to the dealere 3 time for that issue and they say they cannot find anything wrong. The car has been in the shop at total of 38 days. The ignition had to be replace early on and the check engine light has been a recuring problem. any one else have the stalling problem? Any Transmission problems? I agree with mikekris, this is a real safety issue.
#460 of 495 major problems by kerrie1 Aug 18, 2009 (6:51 am)
I have a 2007 acadia with 30,000 miles. I am now afraid to dive this car. Twice, the feul sensor has gone out. Which means that I was driving down a busy highway and all of a sudden I am going about 20 MPH. THis was most dangerous the other day when I was crossing a busy intersection and was almost hit when the car just wouldnt cross the street. The dealership has now had the car for 11 days and while they had it the air conditioning went out for the sencond time. I have had 2 DVD players, the driver and passenger seat wouldnt lock in place. The back hatch feel on my little girl. The power steering fluid ran out, the lumbar on the drivers seat blew out and many many other issues. My neighbors think I get a new car each month because I have to drive a rental for at least 10 days each trip to the dealership.. What rights do we have? The dealership says as long as it is under warrenty that they will fix any problem. Well, what happens when the next speed sensor goes out and I have a wreck and my children are injured? Who can I call for help?

Replying to: amyflo (May 07, 2009 5:48 am) Was your steering problem under wet conditions ever corrected?
