| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Seems cheap - welds, seams, etc. |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
When shopping for a small SUV I took my time and spread it over 3 weeks...meaning I had time to really look at the vehicles I was considering. Having not owned a domestic in over 20 years, I was expecting the fit and finish to not be to import standards..I was wrong. The paint quality, panel gaps and general fit and finish were as good or better than some of the imports I cross shopped. Very surprised.. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Terrible craftsmanship. Cheapest materials that GM could get their hands on. Lots of rattles and squeaks. The engine makes alot of noise, very irritating. Seats are not that comfortable, especially on long road trips. Just a poorly built car. Period. |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
When left outside during a rain storm, gallons of water will seep into the tire well. Had to have a profesionall glass company seel it, local mechanics wouldn't touch it. |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Fit and finish poor in the interior. |

| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 375-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
The paint job is great. Fit and finish of all interior parts is very good, with no problems so far. Seats very comfortable. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 375-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
so far extremely impressed |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 375-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Excellent fit and finish and very solid construction, inside and out. No rattles whatsover. Blue-ish interior lighting is elegant and clear. Note that leather in the 4.6 trims is noticeably softer and higher quality than in any of the 3.8 trims. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 375-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Fit and finish are impeccable. Car just has a look and feel of quality about it. |
