Car electrical issues

Acadia, wife's car (no pics) and she's at work
Symptoms:
Dead battery
Power windows work, but auto-up doesn't
Lift gate seems flaky
A/C not blowing cold (cools a bit while driving, fan maybe not turning?)
Is there a short somewhere?

Typically women neglect their autos...So both you and your wife are women?

What's the issue? All that sounds like typical General Motors ' issues.

OP, sounds like your alternator went out. Have you had the battery checked out? How many cold cranks?

Sometimes, after losing power the auto-up feature needs to be reset/reprogrammed on the car.

Not being a smartass but the acadia is your problem I just got rid of ours because gm screwed the pooch with this one. terrible car and have tons of issues.
there is a switch for the lift gate right in front of gear shifter check it. battery could the issue. could be the alternator.

2011 with the original battery is overdue for battery issues.

modern vehicles do some damn crazy shite when the battery goes bad....wouldn't surprise me at all that if you get a good battery in the vehicle, all of your other problems go away.
