4/5 Overall
NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
The 2019 GMC Acadia has two recalls, the more serious being a transmission issue where missing bolts on the start-stop accumulator endcap can cause a transmission fluid leak that may progress to a complete loss of drive power.
The tire recall covers certain vehicles equipped with Continental tires that may have been over-cured during manufacturing, causing the sidewall to crack or the tread and belt to separate, which can result in sudden air loss while driving.
