Consumer Review Video - 2013 GMC Acadia SLT 3.6L V6

Car Displayed: 2013 GMC Acadia SLT 3.6L V6

The 2013 GMC Acadia SLT is a moderately easy car to maintain. The brake fluid reservoir has very open access, making it easy to check its fluid level and refill it when necessary. The transmission fluid dipstick is also easy to access, making it reliable to monitor its fluid levels. The fuse boxes are quick to find and the engine fuse box comes provided with a fuse puller for your convenience.

However, the 2013 GMC Acadia SLT does have its downsides. Multiple fasteners and large panels will need to be removed to access the reverse light, which can be time-consuming. The battery is located in the cabin and requires the removal of a seat and multiple panels, which doesn’t make for reliable access. The spare tire is located underneath the vehicle and runs the risk of rusting to the undercarriage, which could create a problem in the event of a flat.
