2011 gmc terrain awd SLE. Just bought one for the wife with 40k miles on it. Just wondering if anyone else here had one and ever had any issues with it? seems pretty legit so far. we got the smaller engine because she drives 100 miles a day for work. 2.4 l inline 4 cylinder gets 32 mpg highway. Its not as peppy as I would like buy its only a 185 hp car. Other than that I like it so far.It's quiet and air tight, and the pioneer system from the factory actually jams pretty well for factory subs and amp and stuff.


any input or rumors lmk what the word on the street is if there is any thanks.

Only been a few days, but so far I love it. I'll have too see how it does in winter before it gets my seal of approval.

Its actually not bad if you take it out of eco mode. Then you can switch it from automatic to manual and wind it out. It only has 185 hp but does alright for the size of vehicle for the motor, the 3.1 l 6 cylinder is way better, but i we got this for nice ride/ fuel economy 32 mpg highway 22 city. its very quiet on the highway, even drowns out loud harleys for the most part, I have to roll down the windows to hear them. So far I love this thing, I'll give it a summer of abuse and a winter of use before I actually give it the thumbs up. I can't endorse it without actually putting it through the tests.

Thats a fact, I'm unsure about this awd kicking in on its own when it feels you losing traction.
