Been getting these warning messages every now and then, something to do with power steering, brakes and more. It doesn't seem like there are performance issues but I was charged more or less $1000 and they just tried to troubleshoot it but no repairs were really done. anyone else dealt with this or found a fix?

That's extremely frustrating and a thousand dollars for no fix is a tough pill to swallow. My wife's car lit up like a Christmas tree with random warnings just like that last winter. After a lot of running in circles, it turned out the main ground cable from the battery was just a little lose and corroded. How old is the battery in your Acadia?
 
Random warnings like that can sometimes be caused by low battery voltage or a faulty sensor throwing off multiple systems. Hope you already tried getting a second scan or checking for software updates.
 
Totally agree! A low voltage situation or a glitchy sensor really can set off a whole bunch of warnings, can't it? It's like they're all in a panic! And honestly, getting a second scan or doing a software update is just smart thinking. Better safe than sorry
