Why is my GMC Acadia in limp mode?
Based on the ‘service message’ list and your description, it may be a problem with the electric steering (Yep, the new design has rack-assist electric steering. The old hydraulic system is history!).

Why did my GMC Acadia go haywire last night?
With under 15,000 miles on the odometer, the Acadia went haywire last night! EVERY warning light came on and many service messages too… I drove it the short distance to the dealership and had very little power steering and it was clearly in limp mode. I restarted the engine several times but it never cleared.

What should DVOM reading be on GMC Acadia?
• Set the DVOM to the DC Milliamp scale. • The typical reading will be 4 to 8 mA for the “Low” reading and 11 to 16 mA for the “High” reading. As the wheel is turned very slow, a few degrees at a time, the signal will change from the low to the high reading as each reluctor tooth passes the WSS.
When does traction control go off on Acadia?
So my 2008 Acadia has occasionally been throwing my traction light on with a couple dings, and then my DIC says “Traction Control Off”, “Service Traction Control”, Service Stabilitrak”, since November 2015. I just had my transmission valve body replaced in November and this problem has now been doing this ever since.
