GMC Acadia is an outstanding car.
The performance of the GMC Acadia is outstanding. The car has lasted a long time and I have never had any problems with it. The seats are very comfy and it also comes with seat warmers which is a plus. It even has two sunroofs which is pretty cool. And the radio is very nice.

Good SUV for a larger family.
I purchased this car used so that may be part of the reason I do not care for it. My biggest issue with it is how loud it is. It is also very bumpy. It is not a smooth ride at all which I have had in previous SUV's. The brakes are squeaky from the inside even after they were repaired.

Review for my GMC Acadia.
Love the size and ability to have 3 car seats! Good trunk space and versatility. SUV has not had any problems or breakdowns so far. Love being able to put the third row down for extra room for trips or hauling larger items. Wish the gas mileage was higher but it is better than other vehicles. Love the red color and third row seating.

Love my GMC Acadia. Very spacious.
It burns a lot of oil. I have to put oil before the next oil change. It is very comfortable and spacious. I have three row seating and my kids love the car. A lot fits in the trunk and I can put down the third row and I have a lot more space. It drives very good. Normal oil change and tire change and breaks. The only thing I have replaced is the front shocks because they broke but I bought them myself and paid someone to put them for me and it was cheap.

Life with my super handy GMC Acadia.
I love my GMC Acadia it is spacious, has DVD player for children and I love the flexible trunk space. The only thing is that be prepared to spend a lot on gas. I call my GMC a miniature semi truck! It is big and bulky but it is amazing if you have children or want to start a family! I am still finding out things about the back seat cup holders that also turns into a little cubby that you can use for the remote and headphones. I am still trying to figure out how to lift the seats completely up in the second row so I can properly clean. So I wish it was easier to do that.

Information on 2011 GMC Acadia.
Love having leather seats, 3 rows with middle captain seats. Plenty of room for storage of gas mileage, better of course on highways very safe vehicle to drive in all conditions. Backup camera works great tows small trailers well as long as the load is not too heavy.

2011 Acadia. Decent midsize SUV but lacks long term reliability.
Not great gas mileage. Loud engine. Decent space for family of 6 while still room for storage. Quite a few mechanical issues since hitting 100,000 miles. Multiple windows need to be open in order to not make a vibrating noise in the cabin of the vehicle.

Acadia seating and cargo.
Very roomy and comfortable. I like that it has 3rd row seating or the back seats all fold down for cargo room, also the satellite radio is nice. The only major issues we have had was with the front end, other than that just regular wear and tear upkeep.

The car in general is a good car even with the few problems it came with.
Since we got the car we have found some problems on it. At first the ac wasn't working, some parts of the car were old so we needed to change that. But our kids like the car. It has TV in it which I like. The seats warm up in the front. It has a backup camera. In general is a good car even with the problems it came with.

Love/hate relationship with my Acadia.
Engine sputters at 45 mph. Cannot seem to figure out what is going on. Also now there seems to be a wrong issue and passenger side headlights are not functioning. Also resistors for the ac have been on the fritz for forever and seem to cost an arm and leg to fix. Love the heated seats. And power liftgate. Easy to control and great gas mileage. Have used it to teach 3 teenagers how to drive. Always feel safe when I am in it.

Spacious enough for a family of 5!
My Acadia is very nice. I love the leather interior, heated/ ac seats, dual sunroofs, and rubber mats. The Acadia is spacious enough for our family of 5. We got comfortably in there even on long trips. The main reason I chose the Acadia was the cargo space. I loved that it was the size of a crossover, had plenty of room for my family, and had the largest amount of cargo space. Some things I do not like are the tires wear quicker in the front inside area. So you need to rotate them often. The transmission is common for messing up in the Acadians. I have had to do some work on that within a few years of owning it.

A bitter sweet conversation.
My vehicle started out as a good reliable vehicle. Until the computer went out and the vehicle started when it wanted to. The cost is nearly $1000. But it's better than having to purchase another vehicle. I'll just be happy to get my car back and for it to work again like before!

Some features not in the current model is the head’s up display.
This car has been extremely reliable in the last 9 years I have had it. I have 95,000 miles on it. While it does not have the most updated features, it does have a GPS, backup camera, Bluetooth phone, and USB port for media. My favorite feature not in the current model is a head’s up display that shows your speed.

Acadia is a wonderful family vehicle with plenty of space.

GMC Acadia features and great things.
I have absolutely have no problems with my GMC Acadia, and it is very reliable for going on trips and long rides.

The best thing about the car I think is the space in the back.
The GMC Acadia Denali is actually a very nice car I have a 2011. It has not many problems the only problem I have had with it was a radio problem were you cannot hear any sound out of it but it was fixed. The car features two screens one in the back one in the front also a navigation map. The front screen is a touch screen where you can click on what you need. The car is pretty comfortable has a lot of space in the back overall it is a good car.

GMC Acadia not worth the price.

Luxury feel without the accompanying price tag.

I truly love how the back seats fold down flat so I have more room if I need it.
I think it is a great car, especially if you are a parent. There is so much room when you go to get groceries or need to move bigger items and don't have a truck. The 2 rows in the back fold down and give you just that much more space. I had this vehicle before kids and it is great with kids. I highly recommend this vehicle. There is all the space and it is still a medium sized vehicle, so it's not like you are driving a big vehicle.

It has third row seating.
It is a small size SUV with third row seating and heated leather seats. It has been very reliable so far and it is convenient for when my kids have friends in the car. I live in the northern part of the u. S so winter is a big season for us. It performs well in the winter and I don't have to worry much about safety.

My opinion of the Acadia 2011.
I needed a bigger car because I gave birth to twins and 2 other daughters through my marriage. I like the way the Acadia looks on the outside and the way in looks on the inside. I like the back up the camera it helps me to pull out of a parking spot without hitting anything. I like that the back passenger seats have access to control their own air and heater. The one thing I do not like about the Acadia is it was really hard to find the battery it is located in the backseat flooring which is an odd place for the car battery. Also it was hard to find where the gas pump opener is its not on the inside it's on the outside.
accountCircle Abby G on February 8, 2021
All in all pretty good for 8 years old, just a few small glitches.
It is pretty good. It has a few glitches, though. It has always had a really hard time starting in the cold. The gas pedal can all of a sudden get stuck, causing uncontrolled acceleration for a second. It sometimes makes strange noises. Additionally, the dashboard lights often come on, and when I bring it to the dealer, they cannot find anything wrong.

Unfortunately, our car was hit by another car in 2014,. Since then the car has had one problem after another. The passenger side window can only be operated by the switch on the passenger side.

Check underneath the hood before purchasing a GMC Denali.
We had suspension problems in the same year we purchased. Had to replace fuel module, the headlights, and engine light continually comes on. Compared to other SUV I have purchased in the past, the interior seems to be cheaply made. Not very good quality inside or out. The inside the leather was starting to shred a few years after purchasing. The various knobs inside the vehicle also started to show the coloring coming off, which I feel was too soon for the limited time I drove me and was normally the only one in the vehicle.

I love the look and comfort of this vehicle. Keep in mind that we did buy this vehicle used but we have had several performance and mechanical issues with the vehicle. I did hear that 2011's were plagued with issues but not sure if that is accurate information.

Is that GMC Acadia worth the money?
GMC Acadia Denali is front wheel drive, so it gets around terrible in the winter months. The vehicle is heavy so when wanting to stop when snowing outside, it takes a while. It also gets stuck in the snow easily. The comfort of the vehicle is very nice, there's plenty of room between the seats. Stereo system is average. The vehicle gets about 18 miles/gallon. At less than 100,000 miles, the air conditioner in the car stopped working. The lift gate will work in manual for auto. Some awesome features are built in GPS system, heated and cooled front seats, 110 plug in behind console. There is plenty of room in the Acadia to haul various types of items. One of the features that I've thought was handy is the rate of speed the vehicle was traveling was 28 min. The vehicle is a little too wide. I've had my Denali for almost 5 years and have received two recalls in the mail, both for the rear liftgate. There are other issues with Acadias though, one big issue is the air conditioning system. My air conditioner stopped working so I took it to a shop to be fixed. They told me they fixed it and sent it home with me but it wasn't fixed. When I took it back to the shop again, they estimated that they would charge me $2500 to get my air working again. I never did take it back in to have anything done with it. I would say overall, the Acadia has been a good car for my family, even though it has it's issues.

2011 Acadia owner 3 years
The interior design with the third row seating is ideal for my family! I do feel like it uses quite a bit more gas than any other vehicle I've previously owned. The floors are somewhat difficult to clean because of the exposed seat tracks. I like the vehicle okay, but I'm ready for something different.

Acadia 2011; . It's a beautiful car but not worth the money.
Love the comfort, and the look. It is a used vehicle and had problems with quit often, first week, electrical problems, happened again 2 years later. Had a/c issues and other things. Even out personal mechanic told me not to get that car, wished I would have listened. . It looks and feels like luxury car, also gun to drive, comes with nice extras, however the upkeep is just not worth it!

Great Family Vehicle! Can fit a ton of people or a ton of stuff but not both!
The size is great. Love the appearance. The car is a bit loud compared to other vehicles I have had.

Large SUV that is not the best option.
Large SUV, constantly having check engine issues even though there is no real problem the check engine light always goes off even after I go to get it fixed. Is a bit loud when turning or backing up there is a slight humming noise. Breaks are decent but could be better.

Roomy and reliable large SUV.
Has been very reliable. Bought used have had only routine maintenance since purchase like oil changes, tires and brakes. Roomy and comfortable with lots of extra features to make more enjoyable. The second row captain's chairs are especially good for keeping children in their own zone.

A great vehicle and it runs smoothly.
I love my vehicle, but I had to replace my engine year 7. It is important to use premium gas when owning a Denali. I didn't initially. I was using the lowest grade which build up in the cylinders. Other than that it is a great automobile. I recommend purchasing the Acadia Denali.

Very dependable car that gets great gas mileage.
The car is roomy and stylish. It is good on gas. It runs good and has had a minimum amount of problems.

A roomy ride, perfect for the family!
Since I have owned my Acadia I have been very fortunate that it has not had many problems. It seems reliable and runs fairly well. It is quite spacious and roomy. The captains seats in the back are nice, as is the 3rd row seating. It is a large vehicle though so for me, it is difficult to park and maneuver in smaller areas. The navigation system is a bit difficult to update so I am no longer able to use that feature. The sound system is nice and the air conditioning system works well and cools the vehicle quickly.

Nice looking vehicle but not sure about it being reliable.
I have had to replace the whole steering. It went up a few days before I was to drive to another state and we were not prepared to take another vehicle. I have also had to replace the alternator within a year after buying it. I love the look of the vehicle but I am not so sure about the reliability of it.

Get the extended warranty if buying used.
Mine is cursed, Bought it used a year ago, have gotten hit twice since and it's been in the shop 3 times. Starter went out , then timing chains, now the lower bearings for the crankshaft.(TSB on those BTW) I like it for the room, but the reliability is not built into it very well.

Leather interior, heated cooled seats, backup camera! Very spacious.
It is good family car, drives well! Lots of good details inside the car like leather seats, heated seats, cooled seats.. I love how it has a backup camera! It is very spacious with plenty of room for the kids and friends. Great to drive on vacations we drive it as our family car and it is been our favorite style.

Engine
I WOULD NOT RECCOMEND THIS VEHICLE!!!! I purchased this vehicle and found out there were a ton of issues. Starting with the starter, alternator and then the battery. The engine light came on and was advise to change the sensors. There were 6 to 8 sensors changed since purchase. The latest problem is engine power reduced. After reading some reviews they mentioned they changed all of the sensors and then was advise to replace the motor.

It has lots of space (third row) and loads of features, including heated and cooled seats.
I hate the gas mileage! It was advertised to be much higher and we only get about 14 miles/gal. I love all the amenities, heated and cooled seats, memory position seats and mirrors... I don't like the console between the captain chairs. I wish it was easily removed so we could get to the third row when we have two car seats in the captain seats.

GMC Acadia space and comfort. Air vents located on the roof of the interior.
The GMC parts wear faster than Toyota parts. Performance is great for long distance driving and easy to maintain. Very spacious for seven sets and four captain chairs make it very easy to access back row including the seat fold downs. OnStar not useful at all for modern time.

The good, the not so good, and the reason I will not buy one again.
Love the bucket seats, great for families with 2+ kids and a pet that travels along. Gas mileage is mediocre but older vehicle and bigger so you get what you pay for. Maintenance, e.G. Headlights, is ridiculously expensive and inconvenient to do yourself.
accountCircle Tim B on August 3, 2020
A great and comfortable ride.
The Acadia is comfortable to drive. It is especially good on longer trips as I can drive for a long period of time without getting tired or uncomfortable. The passenger seating is also very comfortable. The third row seating is the most comfortable and easy access third row seating I have had or experienced in an SUV with that feature.
accountCircle Kristin R on July 31, 2020
It is very comfortable on long trips.
I like the size, comfort, and layout of the car. I dislike that its difficult to do any minor repairs on my own (e. G. Changing headlights) due to the manufacturing layout.

It is very large and comfortable to be in. It drives smooth.
I love our vehicle very much. We have had it for years now and it still runs great. We have had problems with our air conditioning not working very well. But it is a great family car. There is a lot of room for a large family and to haul stuff. It is very comfortable to travel in with a family. I love having a third row seat so I can easily have my niece and nephew come with us everywhere we go. This car has been very reliable in the winter. It has great traction and drives great in the snow and in bad weather conditions.
accountCircle Miranda A on July 27, 2020
I love the 3rd row seating!
No major issues really. It is just a pretty big vehicle and I am a pretty petite lady. So I prefer a smaller vehicle. I would also really like to have a better Bluetooth setup. It drives really smooth. I haven't had many issues with it at all. Just too big a vehicle.

2011 GMC Acadia great car for your family.
My car is great it has a sensor to let me know when I am getting too close to objects and it has a lot of space to fit 7 people or the back seats come down for lots of trunk space. It has a sunroof and a large moon roof with a cover, I do not have much problems with it.

Love the space that this car provides!
I love the space in the car, the interior is nice with leather seats. I can listen to the music, answer phone calls on the steering wheel and drop them as well. The compartment space is perfect for me and I love the little lighter holders that are in place. My car has a back-up camera which is also handy. I would recommend this car for anyone with an average size family or even if you do not have any kids.
accountCircle Melissa G on July 4, 2020
Perfect vehicle for family and function.
This is the perfect vehicle for large or small families. I can easily fill the seats with multiple children seats, or flip them down and get away with my hubby and dogs. Good with gas and reliable. Cargo area (behind 3rd row)has plenty of room for groceries including the big bags of dog food. The front seats are very comfortable. There are lots of electric ports to charge phones and tablets on the road. We love taking family trips with our Acadia. Lots of room for all 5 of us.

It has airbags everywhere.
I like the way it rides. I like all the room it sits 7 comfortably. I dislike that it had a recall for the lift gate.
