GMC Terrain Change Vehicle

"Smooth shifting on acceleration. Handles nicely."

"Experience some conditions of highway passing and navigating hills where the 4-cyl engine is not adequate."

"The engine is adequate to normal use. Not peppy. The seating is comfortable and we find it to be a good road car. Good visibility."

"It has ample power and is good to merge in traffic and handles well. I have the lane monitor that tells me when I get out of my lane and when a car is approaching from the side, so that is a good thing"

"See previous answer"

"Compared to last vehicle this is a great ride. Navy system is a little complicated, but otherwise nice to operate."

"6 cylinder engine is slow on acceleration"

"under powered, v-6 would be better choice. Had to add exhaust and intake, to bring increase power."

"We bought the smaller of the 2 engine options. It is under powered and MPG is not good for a vehicle this size. No where near the estimate per GM."

"very solid ride. comfortable. 6 cylinder provides as much power as an 8. good looks. rear hatch very usable. safe feeling vehicle. good truck looks, but car comfort and ride. best suv I drove"

"Navigation is hard to use ie if you are navigating to a location and decide you want to change to another destination the first cannot be canceled.The manual provides no solution."

"Nice ride. The entertainment system needs a upgrade like fords sync."

"Solid driving platform."

"Acceleration with 4 cyl is average at best."

"I love the expanse of this car because I can really sit comfortably. It has an "Eco" button wish I use all the time. So acceleration is slow but it doesn't bother me at all since I get great mileage. It has "on star" but I don't pay the monthly fee so I don't ever use any of the doodads..."

"Rides real well, very comfortable. Just wish it had a little more pickup, trying to merge with traffic....."

"Acceleration of 4-cyl is merely OK. But that is the price of better fuel economy."

"Acceleration for a 4 cylinder could be better."

"Plenty of passing power. Extremely sluggish transmission which saps the fun out of the engine. Sometimes transmission is jerky when lost between gears."

"It needs the 6 cylinder instead of the 4."

"A good handling vehicle. Acceleration is a little slow for a V6 engine."

"Turn radius is not acceptable"

"Quick acceleration and easy handling. U-Turns take some room to complete."

"great towing good ride"

"The car drives nicely. Good acceleration when I need it. Turns are easy too"

"Don't like the downshifts. They seem hard for an automatic trans. Longer turning radius. 4Cyl gets better gas mileage but is much noisier than former 6 cyl."

"hit a post right side back door. post was blow my line of sight. door had to be replaced at $3900.00.. Line of sight on right side of car should be lower."

"I feel very safe driving this car in all kins of weather"

"We love how this vehicle handles . It has great acceleration when needed. Very satisfied with this vehicle."

"more than adequate acceleration easy to drive/handle"

"I chose the four cylinder engine......I wish I had chosen the six cylinder for better acceleration ."

"We got the 6 cylinder engine and the car is really not heavy enough to safely handle its acceleration capability. The front end gets too light when accelerating quickly"

"Excellent accelleration"

"Very poor acceleration."

"The handling and acceleration is very good along with traction during our winters here in Mich."

"The 4 cylinder engine often has to work extremely hard and is underpowered for the size of vehicle. Turbo would have been a good option."

"It rocks! Step on the gas and the car lifts off the ground!"

"I was hesitant about the ability of the engine to handle an SUV of this size, especially when merging into traffic. I have had no problem merging onto the interstate highway (where the speed is 80 mph). It shifts smoothly when I need it to. I do try to be aware of traffic flow so that I don't need to accelerate quickly. The vehicle handles smoothly, responsively, even when the cargo area is filled."

"OVERALL, lIKE THIS CAR ALOT"

"NO COMPLAINTS ON TERRAIN"

"Not too noisy and a smooth ride. Very comfortable seats."

"Very quiet ride. The seats are very comfortable. I love the automatic climate control feature."

"Road noise is high and ride quality is poor for the type of roads in our area"

"Climate control has a mind of its own. There is nothing automatic about it. You have to be constantly adjusting it."

"The Seats are not wide enough. the side bolster cuts into my thighs."

"Ten hour rides from Ohio to NYC are no problems with the GMC Terrain. The long wheel base helps absorb the road and Active Noise Cancelation and Acoustic glass help absorb fatiguing noises. The 4-cylinder not the best for merging, it's broad torque just has you leaving your foot in it long to make a pass and my fiancé has no problem maintaining 80+ mph on the freeway. Though the suspension is stiff and the front seats are firm, I actually like the ride in the back seat. The back seat slide 9""

"Fairly quite ride."

"A constant knock from the right rear wheel well area."

"No a/c for rear seat passengers is my only complaint about the vehicle."

"No room in front seat for purse, etc"

"Built like a tin can. Road noise, wind noise and heavy rain noise come through loud and clear. Only the driver's seat is electric, all others are very uncomfortable. I got the V6 for extra acceleration, but the tin can is too lightweight to accommodate the extra power. When accelerating to pass, the front end is unstable"

"It came with Michelin tires which is bad for road noise on some roads surface."

"The passenger seat is very uncomfortable and even though I bought the top of the line the seat has no adjustment except forward and backward."

"sometimes the screen just cuts off and then comes back on"

"The Air Conditioning has not been keeping up with heat over 80 degrees. Had the A/C checked and there were no leaks or problems and the GM Tech reported that the outlet temp of 48 degrees was within specifications for the Car. In 85 to 90 degree weather, the controls are at full yet the car does not cool down. GM has said the system is normal! Bull"

"The ride is nice, very quiet and comfortable."

"The gmc is easy to get in and out of. The moving back bench seat is nice. It has a nice ride too."

"Excessive road noise and engine noise compared to Toyota Sienna. Narrow less comfortable seats. Longer turning radius. Stiffer but acceptable ride, to be expected from small SUV."

"The car is all wheel drive therefore it rides rougher than two wheel cars. The interior is not as roomy as my other car. I really like the seat warmers when the weather is cold."

"Very comfortable seats on long drives. Could be less road noise but it is acceptable."

"seats are very comfortable and the power seat option gives great flexibility. love the heated seat option. Road noise has not been an issue"

"Seats are very comfortable and include lumbar and partial electric fore and aft adjustment which is good for a big guy. Noise has been reduced and highway speed is quiet."

"Seats are very comfortable. Vehicle has a squeak in the rear hatch that is hard to fix."

"It is an attractive car...it drives well. Too bumpy on passenger side. Seat belts are very difficult to reach..too far back. There are NO a/c or heating vents in the back seat...crazy! Visibility is not good...many blind spots due to mirror and thick area beside mirrors...would not be too bad except there is no beeping feature if a car or object gets in your blind spot."

"Seats are verycomfortable. Road noise needs improvement,"

"The headrests seem to keep your head in a rather awkward position, so I tend not to let my head touch it."

"Seats are comfortable but I do wish the passenger seat was electric. I really miss that Also I do not like how the steering wheel is adjustable. My other car the wheel went higher so it was better for me. I am an overweight person and the steering wheel rubs on my stomach. I have short legs so I have to be close to the pedal."

"low noise level comfortable seat that are easy to adjust"

"Like a tin can on wheels. Just very basic transportation."

"The car is just easy to be in over the long-haul; low noise; ride is great!"

"Good basic comfortable seats on short and long rides, but could be more cushy; Noise is minimal - car is very quiet under most conditions; good comfortable ride with relatively good body control"

"very comfortable"

"The seats in the Terrain are quite comfortable. Interior is moderately quiet but the 4 cylinder engine does make a fair amount of noise when worked hard. The ride is good but does get bumpy on rough roads which is pretty typical of other crossovers I driven in."

"Comfortable and noise free ride, like being "up" higher than most cars."

"I have cross bars and they make a lot of noise!!!"

"comfortable ride but a little noisy. a somewhat sluggish for a 6 cyl."

"The rear seat area has a nice amount of leg room. many of the people sitting in the back comment about the room."

"the front passenger seat is not adjustable for seat angle and the front edge presses against my sciatic nerve."

"It has very high road noise on lots of roads because michelin tire and not insulated for the noise"

"Rides like a bigger SUV, very comfortable, good feel on the road.little to no noise."

"It’s a rather noisy ride. Road noise can be distracting unless the radio is turned up to cover it. Road surface textures create most of the noise. It rides a little stiff, but not bad. The front seats are a bit deep in the bucket. I use a purple cushion seat pad to help decrease the depth as the edge of the seat, when getting in, can be painful on a delicate tailbone area. The seat is very sturdy, quite stiff but not bad. I drive a lot and it is comfortable for the ride. The back seat seem comfortable too."

"Seats are comfortable and adjustable to maximize that comfort. For this size of SUV, the cabin is refreshingly quiet, making it easy to converse with passengers. Others have commented about how quiet it is. For me, the ride is very good for this size of SUV. I've made several road trips (a few thousand miles each) and have arrived without feeling like I've just driven a few thousand miles."

"Overall the seats are pretty comfortable. I wish the passenger seat was power adjustable. The ride is a little rough, I believe the type of tires that come with the car could be the issue. The noise level is a little high depending what surface you are driving on, i.e, asphalt, concrete. I think the window seals could be better."

"Ride is more like a truck. Rough ride"

"Clean lines and details. Comfy seats and very roomy. Not exactly a quiet ride but acceptable. Needed to haul people and does it well and with good seating room and knee room. Decent gas mileage"

"Very dependable,good service and a good ride. I have had no problem to take it back to dealer. Very pleased with the dealership."

"I don't like the laoding area when the rear seats are folded down. The loading area is on an angle and hard to keep boxes etc. from sliding."

"I have a GM discount because my husband worked there but the car still cost over $30,000. I thought that was too high."

"Good vehicle, its the second Terrain we bought"

"It's not overpriced. I feel the quality of the vehicle parts are better than other brands. Also the dealership was the best I've dealt with."

"Buy the equinox, not the GMC Terrain."

"Excellent value for money - good room for 5 adults in cabin, with flexible cargo seating configuration in rear via sliding rear seat; Great fuel economy for size in awd version with four cylinder; Uses regular gas; good space for cargo even with full occupant load; dealers willing to offer good deals, which makes this size of SUV standout compared to competition in price range"

"I THOUGH WE DID WELL. KNEW OUR DEALER AND salesman, HAVE DONE BUSINESS WITH THEM IN THE PAST AND FEEL COMFORTABE WITH THAT DEALERSHIP"

"This car is an excellent value for the money."

"Great value, never a problem."

"I got a very reliable vehicle that handles really well both n town and on highway with comfortable seats, low road noise and pretty decent mileage."

"I thought the price was really high. I had been looking at cars for a long time and found this one but the price was high even with my GM discount."

"The vehicles accomplishes it goals more than adequately. Surprised how little maintenance is necessary."

"It's been extremely reliable. No rattles. The part it like least is that it has a long turning radius due to the length of the wheelbase"

"Comparison shopping is hard for this vehicle because not much is written but it is an excellent product for the money. Gas mileage and quality is high for the size and space. It is excellent to drive and I feel safe and secure."

"Style and smart-looking is what I wanted. Inside seating area is adequate for our needs as is the back area for hauling groceries, etc. It's easy to drive and gives a feeling of security inside. Compared to the other vehicles I researched and considered, this was the favorite."

"Good buy"

"Rust on body."
