NHTSA Complaint #10419327 — 2009 GMC ACADIA

I BOUGHT THE ACADIA NEW IN 2009 . AT 15K MILES CD PLAYER TURNS ON AT NIGHT BY ITSELF AND RUNS BATTERY COMPLETELY DOWN HAD TO GO BUY A BATTERY CHARGER TO GET THE CAR STARTED YOU CAN'T MOVE THE CAR WHEN THE BATTERY IS DEAD, A RE PROGRAM FIXED THE CD PLAYER. 35-40K MILES DVD PLAYER WILL NOT WORK, RE PROGRAM DID NOT WORK, DEALER REPLACED DVD PLAYER. 40K MILES WATER PUMP WENT OUT, 40 K MILES WHEEL ALIGNMENT WENT OUT AND WORE THE FRONT TIRES TO THE CORD, NO MENTION OF COMPENSATION FOR TWO NEW TIRES AT A COST OF $500.00. 10K MILES FURTHER ANOTHER SET OF TIRES HAD TO BE REPLACED AT THE SAME COST, THIS IS AFTER DEALER WHEEL ALIGNMENT,5 K MILES MORE AND THE ALIGNMENT HAD TO PERFORMED AGAIN. JUST CHECKED AGAIN AT 5 K MILES MORE AND TIRES ARE STARTING TO FEATHER AGAIN. AT 60K MILES ONE OF THE DRIVING LIGHTS WENT OUT. THE DEALER WANTS OVER $100.00 TO REPLACE THE BULB, SEEMS AS THOUGH THE FRONT END NEEDS TO COME OFF TO REPLACE A LIGHTBULB THAT USED TO COST A FEW DOLLARS. THE PAINT HAS STARTED TO PEEL OFF THE BUTTONS THAT CONTROL THE AIR CONDITIONER FAN. THE GAS MILEAGE IS NOT AS ADVERTISED. I WAS TOLD THAT AFTER 10K MILES IT WOULD GET BETTER, THAT WAS 50 K MILES A GO. OVER ALL THIS CAR IS A REAL EXPENSIVE PILE OF CRAP. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THE ACADIA TO ANY ONE. *TR
