I just leased a brand new 2019 AWD Terrain Denali Fully loaded with all packages. The MSRP was over $45k. I have less than 900 miles on it and have had the vehicle for about 33 days.
The quality of the vehicle and drivetrain is horrible. SD Card Reader and the Backup Camera System failed by the time I drove 14 miles from the dealer lot to my home! When I contacted the dealer to fix the issue they kept my vehicle for 3 days only to tell me that the SD Card Reader was replaced but the Backup Camera is on back-order with no estimate for availability. It's been weeks and the camera is still not in for replacement!
On top of it, even in All Wheel Drive mode, the vehicle slips and skips on wet pavement. What would happen in heavy rain or in snow storms (which are common here in Michigan)?
As if all this wasn't enough, GM has reduced the size of this vehicle quite a bit to a bird-cage, made the seats extremely uncomfortable, no way to seat 5 people comfortably or really carry a shopping cart worth of groceries from Costco in the trunk. I was hoping that I would get used to the interior, but coming from 2015 AWD Terrain Denali fully loaded, even after a month I still can't get used to this small size.
And to make matters worse, GM went with a push/pull button shifter. You won't know how bad it is until you have driven in rush-hour traffic for 1-2 hrs. With a manual shifter I could easily push the shifter into 'N', take my foot off the break and give my foot a rest until the car ahead moved and quickly shift bach to 'D' and inch forward and repeat. Not so much with this terrain.
More than the design though, due to such horrible quality I will never buy GMC again and suggest others not to buy either.
