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.

Just like my new GMC pick-up truck, the interior is again made of cheap plastic. GM should take a page out of what Ford and Chrysler have been doing lately. I still buy GM products because it's not all about the interior. It's about the ride,security and quality that I've always had with GM products.
