The 2009 GMC Acadia: before you buy
No 2009 GMC Acadia is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. For anyone shopping for the 2009 GMC Acadia, here are the facts that matter.
A buyer's checks
NHTSA has 331 owner complaints on file, mostly about steering, power train and engine. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
What the specs mean
It uses the 3.6L 6-cylinder and all-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 37 litres, from its 12.4 L/100 km rating. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $57.66 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Inside and out
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.
A longer test drive
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. If the Acadia is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
Which one to look for
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Within the 2009 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
What it costs to run
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $192.20 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
