Where the GMC Acadia starter is listed
We found priced GMC Acadia starter listings at 149 salvage yards across 25 states. Florida supplies the most, with 406 listings (43% of the total) from 27 yards.

Shipping usually costs less than that gap for smaller parts, so it can pay to buy out of state.

Market analysis
How much does a used GMC Acadia starter cost?
Asking prices for a used GMC Acadia starter are unusually spread out: the top listing asks more than ten times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 178% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $111.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, 3.6L, lists at a $151 median, while 2.0L commands $157, a 4% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2016 units carry the lowest median at $55, while 2023 tops the table at $151. Parts from 2011–2021 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 11 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the GMC Acadia sits 13% below the Ford F150 ($126), 1% below the Mercedes E Class ($111), and 12% below the Mercedes S Class ($125) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used starter: what to check
- Ask if the unit was bench-tested. Starters are cheap to test and yards that do will say so.
- Match the flywheel tooth count and mounting bolt pattern to your engine code.
- Check the solenoid connector style; mid-year changes are common.
- A remanufactured unit with warranty is sometimes only slightly more than used, so compare both.
