MY FIRST 2007 AWD ACADIA BROKE DOWN AFTER OWNING IT FOR 20 MINUTES CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT WOULDN'T MOVE. SPENT MORE TIME IN THE GARAGE. WHEN I GOT IT BACK A WEEK LATER IT STARTED TO SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT BUT IT ONLY DID IT WHEN I WAS STOPPED AND MADE RIGHT TURNS ON MAIN ROADS. THE CAR WOULD SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING BUT IT WOULD RESTART AGAIN. GOT A REPLACEMENT CAR HAD TO PAY 2,000 MORE FOR IT AND THE REPLACEMENT ACADIA IS DOING THE SAME THING. ITS A DEATH TRAP WE COULD GET KILLED PULLING ON A HIGHWAY AND THE CAR SHUTS OFF AND WHEN THEY HOOK IT UP TO DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE IT SAYS NOTHING SHOWS UP. IT HAS BEEN IN FOR THE SOFTWARE UPGRADES AND A WEEK LATER ITS SHUTTING OFF AGAIN AND HAS ALOT OF HESITATION. I HAVE HAD IT WITH GMC I JUST WANT MY MONEY BACK THEY LOST MY TRUST I SHOULD OF STAYED WITH MY JEEP LIBERTY WHICH WAS A GREAT VEHICLE WITH NO PROBLEMS. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE PROBLEM ONLY OCCURS AT THE HOTTEST POINT OF THE DAY (SPRING, SUMMER) WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A FEW HOURS IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT AND YOU TRY TO USE THE KEYLESS ENTRY TO UNLOCK THE DOORS, IT DOESN'T WORK. YOU CAN START THE VEHICLE BUT NONE OF THE ELECTRICAL FEATURES WILL WORK (WINDOWS, SUNROOF, RADIO, ETC..) AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT GO INTO REVERSE OR DRIVE. THE DISPLAY STATES THAT THE HOOD IS OPEN. YOU CAN POP THE HOOD AND OPEN AND CLOSE IT BUT THE PROBLEM WILL NOT FIX ITSELF. WE HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE INTO 2 SEPARATE DEALERSHIPS IN 2 DIFFERENT STATES AND THE VEHICLE WON'T DO IT WHILE IT IS THERE. ONCE IT COOLS DOWN OUTSIDE OR THE SUN GOES DOWN, THE CAR WILL START AND GO INTO DRIVE. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE BODY CONTROL MODULE AND THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. WE HAVE BEEN STRANDED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AND IT HAS BEEN A PAIN. JUST WONDERING IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HAD THIS ISSUE-IT IS GETTING OLD!!! *TR
