Acadia SLE 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 200 miles

I just got a brand new 4WD Acadia SLE, less than 300 miles still. This car is for work, so I was not able to chose what I got. I traded in a 2012 Explorer (which I loved). As soon as I got into the car I felt how uncomfortable the seats were, and driving it more has only confirmed. This car has a sticker price of $37,500! No POWER SEATS, NO LUMBAR SUPPORT, no volume control on the steering wheel. On a $37,500 car I have to crank the seat up with a lever (which doesn't go high enough), and no lumbar support? The front drivers seat is so uncomfortable, and the seats are made of a very rough material that actually scratches your legs if you have shorts on. The rear view mirror is very small. The driving position is not good. I am a female, 5'6", so not very short, and I feel like the dash is too high for me. Also feels much lower to the ground than the Explorer. The tiny rear view mirror does not adjust up high enough. The steering wheel is too small and has little up/down adjustment. This is not an economy car! I am stuck with this vehicle and I hate it.

Acadia LS V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 3,000 miles

Nice looking car and all was fine till driving over 30 minutes in this vehicle. Acute tailbone pain became severe and I had to return the car and take a hit on it. As much as I tried, there was no solution for the issue. GM needs to redesign these seats, worst ever. To make matters worse, the dealer was difficult and GM corporate did nothing to resolve the issue. Bye Bye GM, never again.
