I purchased a 2013 gmc acadia from car max on february 16th of this year. after 3 weeks the battery was completely dead, but car max reimbursed the cost to replace. fast forward to may 24th...as i try to leave from work the vehicle would not start. the dash displayed several messages: reduced engine power, stabilitrak off, and battery saver active. the vehicle was towed to tire kingdom and the diagnosis was a bad fuel pump/fuel pump module. the part was replaced and computer reset. all was well for 3 days and the same problem occurred including a dead battery! i drove the vehicle approximately three more days before the same issue happened again. this time, i had it towed to the gmc dealership. they had my vehicle from june 5th- june 12th and even though they received 6 error codes, they stated it was the battery (the same one replaced in february and was recharged a week prior). i was sure that wasn't the only problem, but they were confident it was. i had to pay $508 out of pocket for battery/ diagnostic because my warranty only covers the diagnostic with repairs. all seemed well for 3 days. this time after starting the vehicle and reaching my destination the truck would not shut off! i immediately called gmc (cel illuminated) and after 10 minutes the engine shut off. i took it to them the next day and they started it had a bad fues block. they repaired it, but 8 days later the vehicle wouldn't start again! on july 2nd it was taken to a shop for the 6th time! this time they are saying it is the ecm. i purchased this vehicle because my husband's 2003 gmc yukon has 286,000 miles and little things are starting to go. ironically it has been more reliable than this 2013!! i have only had this vehicle for 4 months and have already paid out over $1000 in repairs/deductables. what a nightmare!
