Best car I have owned

I upgraded from a Kia Sorento. Was worried about the loss of the third row but the back seats allow for me to haul larger items if needed. Fits me and my 4 daughters comfortably. All the features work 100%. Couldn’t be happier with the entire package!

Not a reliable car

Don't purchase this car. I purchased it new and been having problems every since. Even with the life time warranty the dealer's has yet to figure out what's wrong with it. Every time i have visit the dealer's its the same thing we can not duplicate the issue until this car shut down and locked up in traffic which could have gotten someone serious hurt. Know its been at the dealer over a month and they cant figure out what happen. However I'm still responsible for payment the finance company every month,

First SUV I've Owned!

The 2019 GMC Terrain is an awesome SUV! Not too big; not too small. JUST RIGHT with a beefy/sporty front grill look like a truck. I have the White w/black trim exterior which gives a long sleek look. Engine is smooth and it rides so well. Will definitely purchase this make and model again.

2019 GMC Terrain SLE

I can't say enough about the Terrain! What a comfortable and versatile vehicle. When the rear seats fold flat there is plenty of space for hauling anything I need to move.

Brand new for us, just purchased today

Good looking used Terrain with low mileage. Will replace our old model Pontiac Torrent. About the same size only much more sporty. Looking forward to a nice new ride.

Mistake

Car broke down in the first 8 months of owning it because a sparkplug came loose and wrecked the cylinder. 4 months later it is in the shop again because there was damage in the engine from the previous issue. The whole engine was replaced but still wouldn't start. It turns out there is something wrong with the power block and that has to be replaced too. Huge regrets buying this SUV.

Love this car!

My terrain is great for running around town or long trips. We can haul a lot of people and stuff and it gets great gas mileage!

So far so good

I think this vehicle is beautiful and the aesthetics of the vehicle are great! Now, the autostop feature on the vehicle is def something I will have to get used to as well as the very touchy brakes. I have purchased new vehicles in the past and notice that after some consistent driving that I get used to those things. Overall, I am very pleased with the size of the vehicle and the gas mileage. The backseat could be bigger but I do like the overall feel of the vehicle for myself and my family.

Great Little Rig

This is the first new car I've ever owned. I'm now at 34,000 miles. It's still performing flawlessly. The comfort is unmatched and the AWD has gotten me through some seriously precarious situations -- that I really shouldn't have put myself in. I really have no complaints, other than the slope of the hatchback collects dirt in dusty conditions. Otherwise this little motor runs and runs and I'm planning on driving this car until it just doesn't make any sense anymore. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sensible AWD vehicle, or to anyone considering any SUV in this size class.
