        Median 2015 SUV here (44)313

        243 complaints is about the median for a 2015 model on this site and 1.3 times fewer than the median 2015 SUV. Among the 7 Acadia model years here it ranks 5th for complaints. Counts follow sales volume as much as reliability, so a truck that sells 700,000 a year draws more reports than a sedan that sells 200,000.
