The 2012 GMC Acadia comes with orange OEM Dexcool coolant. Avoid mixing different types of coolant in your vehicle, as it may lead to corrosion in the cooling system which could cause permanent damage. If you are uncertain about the coolant type in your car and it's running low, it is best to add distilled water. While this may slightly reduce the cooling capacity, it will not cause any harm to the system. If your coolant has been changed by a third-party shop, it's a good idea to verify the coolant type with them so that you can keep some spare on hand.

    If you have to refill the coolant in your 2012 GMC Acadia, ensure you use orange extended life 50/50 strength coolant that is pre-diluted.
