Buying the 2018 GMC Acadia
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2018 GMC Acadia for sale by us right now. Here is what to know about the 2018 GMC Acadia before buying one.
Recalls and complaints
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Owners filed 396 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, unknown or other and electrical system; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
What the specs mean
Under the hood: the 2.5L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Plan on about 30 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 10.1 L/100 km. In energy, every 100 km costs about $15.66 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Best uses
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Space, size and seats
Being a full-size SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the Acadia for a week and see how it fits your life. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Drive the Acadia on your commute before you commit to it.
Which one to look for
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$2,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.66 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
