Awesome!!!

The car met all of my family’s needs. It has plenty of leg room and cargo space. We love it and can’t wait to go on a trip.

Beautiful SUV

It's a bit smaller than what I wanted (I would have like the Acadia better), but it was all I could afford, and I needed something quicly, as my 2002 Venture had a lot of issues. I love the ride and how it handles.

Most reliable car I have owned.

This car meets all of my needs. I would recommend this to anyone for purchase to drive for any reason or occasion. Perfect for driving family around, driving to work and taking on vacations. So much room and excellent mpg.

Not happy with this car

3 years with this car and then stabile light started coming on, had to have a new transmission line, stabile light again, diagnostic test said low voltage had to replace 5 year batter at the cost of $250. Stabilize light on again, computer problem in transmission had to be replaced. Stabile light comes on again brakes started to fail, now being told the engine has to be blow out by degunking every 15,000 mile at $300. All this has transpired over the last 4 months the car has been in the shop 5 times for a period of one month. This car is in the shop now. Informed by dealer every GMC Terrain has to have engine debunked every 15,000 miles. Never heard of this nonsense.

Wouldn’t recommend

This was a great vehicle for a small, average SUV. I encountered several issues over the 4 years I owned it, such as acceleration issues. As soon as I bought it I took it back to the dealer and complained about a slow responding accelerator. Every time I would speed up it delayed and jerked passengers forward. This issue was ‘commonly brought up by other owners but there is nothing from GM to say this is a defect’. I was told I had to deal with it. I also would not recommend financing through GM Financial; the most unprofessional people I’ve ever encountered. Rude as can be & have no respect for customers who have never missed a payment, always acting like you’re interrupting when you call.

Most unreliable GM car ever owned

I’m on my second engine failure , and dealer offers no support. The dealer and GM denies any problems, just look on internet and shows there in denial,

Really love this SUV

I have knee issues and his car is very easy to get in and out of. Love the overall look of this car, very classy. And I am not a fan of SUV's. But I love this one.

Very good value

The 2015 is comfortable, handles well, looks good and get great gas mileage. One negative on both the 2012 I owned and the 2015 I currently own. Steering wheel radio controls. They are far too sensitive and I don't use them becasue of that.
