Hey GM! What 16 years now....
AND YOU STILL CAN'T BUILD AN ACADIA
THAT AINT A BUMPER TO BUMPER POS.
Well... what have you got yo say for yourselves?
Mine is a 2009. So (Growing pains maybe).

DIDNT REALIZE THIS WAS A PLACE TO BE CRITICISED FOR MY CHOICE OF FONT. I GUESS THE SUBSTANCE OF WHAT I POSTED DIDNT RESONATE WITH AT LEAST ONE PERSON.
Nah. You mentioned the "important" item.DIDNT REALIZE THIS WAS A PLACE TO BE CRITICISED FOR MY CHOICE OF FONT. I GUESS THE SUBSTANCE OF WHAT I POSTED DIDNT RESONATE WITH AT LEAST ONE PERSON.
Substance, content, emphasis....and such.
Don't fret the folks that get hung up on fonts, pronouns LoL, punctuation etc. Nit-picking is probably the high point of their day.
Fixing stuff is the high point of my day.
LoL. No shortage of Acadias in need of fixes if this forum is any indication.
OP:
Chances are all of the problems might actually be one problem seeing as they didn't fix it. Not heart warming perhaps, but maybe some peace. "Yelling" (all caps) is commonly frowned on at many sites, most I'd say. The not resonating part... the yelling, but you didn't actually ask for help, so most might pass on by. On a good note, let's see a pic of your ride.

I don't think GM reads this forum, or at least they don't post here. Every manufacturer has issues, this site is by no means unique, or filled with complaints. My '19 has been great.

My 2009 looks quite sharp, for an old ride.
Nice and quiet. Fine leather seats. Handles nice, except for the chopping (pitching) to some, of the rear end, on highway curves to the left. Certainly I'll find one or more worn out links and/or struts. Well ballenced for our winter roads here around Milwaukee.
Visibility is great out the windshield. OK out the front side windows and pathetic from there on back. I'm closing in on 6 grand to Wright all the ills that are so well documented by other owners tormented by this travesty of engineering.
Lee3. Take it back and ram it down your dealer's
throat before it's to late. you have a class A1 Lemon here. Your troubles are only beginning. Get a lawyer, if your dealer resists.
As for BOLD. Every city and county municipal complex in our land,.. has monuments, with declarations in stone or concrete. Paragraphs maybe pages of magnificent beautiful BOLD engraving to read. Social media whiners started this (yelling) b.s. Many of us older mechanics, welders, toolmakers etc. etc. Can read BOLD with little eyestrain without bifocals.
It's even soothing with your screen colour inverted.

A shouting rant is more likely to resonate with others having a proclivity for same.DIDNT REALIZE THIS WAS A PLACE TO BE CRITICISED FOR MY CHOICE OF FONT. I GUESS THE SUBSTANCE OF WHAT I POSTED DIDNT RESONATE WITH AT LEAST ONE PERSON.
My 2011 was a great vehicle with a few intermittent flaws, and my 2022 (with just over 7k miles) is so far even better. The torque tube issue has been mentioned more than once before on this forum. Maybe a bad part manufacturing run. That's what the warranty is for.Hey GM! What 16 years now....AND YOU STILL CAN'T BUILD AN ACADIA THAT AINT A BUMPER TO BUMPER POS

2,500 miles and all of that happens.A shouting rant is more likely to resonate with others having a proclivity for same.

And still unresolved.
That's what lawyers are for.
What an amusing thread.......so much yelling and calls to lawyer up from a guy with 9 posts and a 14 year old Acadia.
As long as the dealer takes care of the OP's issues, I don't see a problem.
I've had an '11 and an '18 and my next lease is going to be a '23.

Probably should have bought a 2019 Ford Explorer. Or Dodge Durango.
Then there would be more to complain about.
There are some things called research and due diligence before buying a 14 year old vehicle.
Plus . . news FLASH ! !
All vehicles since about 2007 or 2008 have more and more complicated electronics, complex valve trains, Gasoline Direct Fuel Injection and the history of issues as the technology evolved because of EPA mandates and emission controls.
Do I like it and most owners? No . . . . but then according to your reasoning they are all POS.
Not Just GM ! ! !
Ever hear this - - - > IT IS WHAT IT IS ! !

Usually not 'Yelling' thO'
Well . . . just was continuing with the trend in this thread. . . LOL
My main emphasis (to be clear) is....Well . . . just was continuing with the trend in this thread. . . LOL
I don't know what Lee3 paid for his Acadia.
But "clearly" the staff at the dealership he took it to has only [guess work part swappers] attending his vehicle. And "clearly" the management there, has no sense of urgency to turn this mess around.
Lee3 and a few others who's conundrums I've read about since joining this forum....
Are not going to get these matters turned around, by walking calmly in and saying
"please kind sirs, fix my car".
Long ago, a man pull up in front of a dealership with the long version Dodge window van. He parked it sideways infront of the service garage entrance, wedging it in between the yellow bump posts. He locked it up. Went inside. And made them contact the owner of the dealership. Who did show up. The man walked out with keys to a brand new van. I know this because this man was my foreman. A normal kind and patient man who had enough.
Thank You.
Ahh . . . editorial anecdote having nothing to do with the references to 14 year old Acadia being a "GM POS." . . Alrighty then.
Alex, I'll take "Things that never happened" for $500 please.Long ago, a man pull up in front of a dealership with the long version Dodge window van.
