Extremely reliable and fuel efficient. Decent sound system. Some blind spot issues. Nicely compact. No issues in maintenance, just replaced spark plugs once. Reasonably peppy. Bumpers have survived minor bumps extremely well, nom worse for the wear. Happy camper here.

Great car that is reliable and gets great gas mileage!
Reliable. Only a few minor glitches. Great gas mileage! Planning on buying a 2020 model within the next few months. I love the moonroof and I have heard the new Buick will come with Alexa. I highly recommend a Buick. My parents have an enclave and they love their Buick!

Engine troubles with Buick encore.
In the shop right now for turbo issue. Have had it in the shop 2 other times for engine issues. Only has 61k miles. I am not very happy with this vehicle. I would prefer to have a new car, but do not have the funds to pay cash for a new car. Hopefully by January I will have saved enough to buy something else.

Basic SUV model for people looking for a smaller SUV.
I like my car for everyday use. However it does not have a lot of pickup. When you try to speed up it kind if takes it a second to get up to speed. It's a very basic SUV. The interior is nice but really no extras. Only the driver's seat has armrests. Also does not have remote start in basic model.

The most amazing thing about the vehicle is the backup camera.
This vehicle runs amazing, very good on gas, has amazing heat and a/c. Very comfortable on car rides and rides very smooth. I would definitely pick this as your first car. They drive like a bullet. No blind spots or anything. Has a backup camera also.
Jasmine B

It is a good car but it has its differences.
The problems that is currently wrong with it is the alternator, battery, oil leak, tires pressure. Ever since we got this car, it is been going through so many more problems than ever. I know a lot of people are having the same complications as our car.
Kaylee T

Best car ever and so cheap if your GMA buys it for you.
I love this car honestly it is so cute and I just really like the leather seats because I have kids and everything just wipes up. The heated seats are the best in the winter and also the heated steering wheel. Yes ma’am I am in love with him and by him I mean the car.
Tina L
on March 24, 2021
The encore handles well and drives well and gets good gas mileage.
I have had to have my car repaired more than I should have. I have had issues with ignition coil and turbocharger. There are also electrical issues like the radio randomly goes off by itself. Buick encore manufacturers should address these issues especially the turbo charger.
Autumn P

Very nice, good radio. Leather seats, easy to clean.
The vehicle is great. Runs smoothly, I own a grey one, it is sparkly too which I thought was cool. Beautiful leather seats.

Very nice in all, like I said before.
It is nice, I love the color and style, I think others should buy it. It is awesome and I'd be happy to show you guys it if you'd like,. It has a nice shine and it is holds a lot of people in it so it is handy for car trip. So very nice in general so yeah that is what I think about it.
Paige A

Amazing car with lots to offer.
This car is reliable and great on gas. I have heated seats and a heated steering wheel along with a remote start that is amazing in the mornings. It has a back up camera which makes it easy to parallel park or pull out of spaces in a parking lot. I would recommend this car to everyone and anyone. Very comfortable.
Bernard R
on February 26, 2021
Good Car, but needs fixing to a minimum
My vehicle is very comfortable. The problem I have with it is that it jumps when I switch from first, second, and third gear. It is very reliable on transportation. It gets me very far whenever I want to go somewhere. The features are wonderful. I would like the color of the car to change and I would like the changing of gears to stop.
Caroline G
on February 21, 2021
Heated seats and steering wheel are divine.
The Buick encore has all of the amenities of the larger SUVs with the added benefits of easier handling and less garage space. The heated seats and steering wheel are divine in the cold winter months and the climate control makes summer driving a delight. I appreciate the GPS when I take my detours just to see the countryside because I know that if I have no idea of how to get home pushing the home button will get me there safely. I am short and find that the rear camera is very helpful in backing out of a parking space. I love my Buick and would recommend it to anyone.

2013 Buick encore pros and cons.
My vehicle is great. I have had it for about 2 years and have had zero problems. I take it on long, 2 to 3 day, road trips and it is comfortable, reliable and not terrible on gas. I do wish it had a navigation system as well as touch screen capabilities. I've adjusted to not having these things but in future would like one of the newer models with these capabilities.
Jim J
on January 30, 2021
Buick encore. Excellent girl economy.
This model (2013 encore) is an excellent performer. Very peppy for a four cylinder engine while it gets 30+ mpg. The hatchback offers ample storage space for that stock up trip to the grocery. With a 5-star safety rating it is a good choice. With adequate maintenance it will run for a long time with no major problems. The only downfall is it is a compact so there is not a lot of extra leg room in the rear seat. However it will work for four average size adults for s short trip.
Michael S

Buick encore pro and cons.
Cheap materials for inside of car. Runs well, comfortable. Could be roomier. Haven't had any major issues in 2 1/2 years. Have taken many road trips, handles well on interstate. Warning system is convenient. Would recommend but likely wouldn't buy again. Not 100 percent my style.
Beth R
on January 27, 2021
Roomy and small at the same time.. Love the back-up camera and the fine finishes
Horrible Pick-up - it is slow and hesitates. Pretty and cute and a nice small size - lots of features. Love it.

Great comfort in my Buick.
Smooth ride. This vehicle has fully adjustable seats for full comfort and 2 memory settings for your personal preferences. This car gets great gas mileage and with premium gas gets approximately 420 miles to a tank. Space in the back is limited but the back seats fold fully down for more space.
Amanda B
on January 16, 2021
A positive vehicle review.
No issues with the vehicle. Excellent reliability, gets good mileage, no negatives to report for performance. Does well in winter months for a lightweight vehicle. The trunk area is a bit on the small side, but folding the back seats allows for moving large items if necessary. I would recommend to anyone thinking of buying.
Mary W

It is a safe vehicle and it is great on gas and it looks great
I like the color. It runs great and safe.it doesn't use too much gas.

Compact near luxury compact SUV.
The only problem with this car is it needs better tires for snow it can also be a little delayed on acceleration. Very comfortable and love the heated front seats and steering wheel. Would love to have heated back seats too. This is the perfect compact sub get around town vehicle.
Pete M

My Buick lemon. Aka. This vehicle is awful.
Everything failed within 500 miles past warranty. Electrical. Engine. Suspension. Trim fell off by front wheel well. Rear reflector light fell off. Bluetooth failed 200 miles past electrical warranty. Right after, USB port died. Climate control not consistent, defrost/air works sporadically.

This is the best car I have ever driven in my whole life!
This is the best car I have ever had the great pleasure of owning and driving. I hardly have any problems with it, and it is so easy to manage and take care of. It has smooth braking and I just feel the sweet glide when I drive it anywhere I go. It really has had a huge impact on my life.

My car is very clean and it is the perfect size for me.
The only thing that I do not like about my car is sometimes the radio goes in and out. Sometimes the USB connection does not work. Sometimes the Bluetooth connection in my car does not work either. My seats are very comfortable. Also I do wish my car was a 6 cylinder instead of a 4 cylinder.

It's the perfect size for me.
I really love this car but I wish it had better gas mileage on it. The seat is perfect for me the size of it is perfect. I love the electrical features that it have in it and it's a perfect car for someone who is just starting out driving and love smaller SUVs.
Brayde D
on September 27, 2020
It's very compact and reliable.
I like the style and feel of the vehicle. The size is just too small. I wish I had purchased a bigger vehicle but I didn't think it was too small at the time. Other than that, I like my vehicle.
Madilynn D
on September 17, 2020
2013 Buick encore bought used.
I had to replace the throttle body right after buying it. Also the rims are aluminum so they bend very easy, also had to replace one of those. Gets good gas mileage, much better than the car I had before. It is super reliable and comfortable. I love the Bluetooth so I can play my own music.
Diane O
on September 16, 2020
This is my review on my 2013 Buick encore.
The vehicle drives and handles very well. It is great on gas mileage and little maintenance. I have only had to replace the sway bars and sway bar links. The catalytic converter and ball bearings and a cv joint. I regularly take it on 4 hour trips one way twice a month and it's all mountains and the turbo in it is unbelievable.
Mike S
on September 6, 2020
My Buick encore is another member of my family.
This car has been an overall good experience. It is a smooth ride and everything generally works great. All of the features seem a little bit overwhelming at first. Love this car and I have made a lot of good memories with it with my family. Strange placement of back seat belts.
Lena W
on August 19, 2020
It comes with backup camera and Bluetooth.
I have had problems with turbo charger and ignition coil parts for Buicks are priced higher than the same parts for a Chevrolet. Most of the repair shops want $2000 or more to fix it. My encore only had 78,000 miles on it when the turbo went out it seems to be a common issue for the encore.
Jennifer O
on August 11, 2020
Car is fun and exciting to have.
It is nice car with great features. It handles well. It is safe. It is good in snow. It is easy to maintain of. It does not give me any problems. It gives a comfortable rifle. We take this everywhere, long and close. Everyone enjoys to drive this car in our family.

Unstable and bumpy ride
I purchased the vehicle last year with 65K miles on it and I have invested much in upgrades. I recently purchased brand new shocks/struts both front and back and yet, I experience and hard hit when driving over a bumpy road. I don’t understand why it hits so hard.
Alex K
on August 3, 2020
Is that a Buick. Yes it is in fact a Buick.
It works well but at this point I do recommend that you buy a newer car. If you are looking at this one it is a great car. The leather seats are very comfortable and it has good storage. I loved this car but now that it is older I will need to get a new car soon.
Shanah B
on July 26, 2020
My favorite thing is the touchscreen navigation and the DVD player for the kids.
I love my enclave. It has touch screen navigation, heated seat, voice activated Bluetooth and a screen for the kids to watch movies on long road trips. Also has a sunroof and dual temperature control, also temperature control for the back. It has third row seating and is a very smooth ride.
London T
on July 20, 2020
It is a small vehicle with a nice ride but had a few engine issues.
The car has a smooth ride! It holds onto gas very well! The engine shakes often. It is a great first time. Car from teenagers and is extremely small. The belt comes loose often as well. But overall with a little maintenance it is a great “for now” type of vehicle!
Melissa

My remote start don't work neither does the door to my hatchback
About two weeks after I got my Buick Encore I bought it used off of a lot. The hatchback stopped opening still can't get it open to this day. It's been about 6 months and now my remote start don't work. I bought it off a lot without a warranty because that's how it came. I don't see me having this vehicle much longer.
Melissa Hills
on July 13, 2020
Lights s**k
I like this car because it gets great gas mileage. Its so little that my husband and I have to bump arms to get a drink from the cup holder. The headlights are the worst I have ever seen. Brights are not as good as dims should be. Why isn't anyone saying that? The other thing that I despise is the stereo. If you don't care about music- you wouldn't mind but I honestly hate this stereo. It only goes up a little ways and I listen to audio books and music on my way to work and more than half of the time, I cannot hear the words. Yes, I have had my hearing tested. Lol If the lights and stereo were good, I wouldn't hate the car. One more issue is the fact that you cannot adjust the seat in a comfortable position. I used a back pillow for a long time and now I am just used to it.

A lot of oil changes, overheating, and gas.
I have to take this vehicle to the car shop sometimes. It sometimes overheat. It burns gas fast, and often need oil change. The expenses are a lot and I am currently working on getting it fixed up. It have some problems, but overall it gets me where I need to go.

Car that drives the encore boasts a quiet cabin,
The encore boasts a quiet cabin, great maneuverability, and a better ride than many larger and higher-scoring SUVs. The little 1.4-liter turbo four-cylinder and six-speed automatic deliver anemic acceleration however, and fuel economy is disappointing for a vehicle of this size. Handling is sound, though unexceptional.
Sarah M
on June 9, 2020
Nice color!! Quality is okay. I keep it up nice.
Very good performance some problems. I would recommend other cars before this one. I have had problems with the breaks. I have also had problems with the oil changes put in her gives a smooth ride. Although the shape is not ideal for me it is still a quality car.
Melissa C

The only downside for me is that oil changes cost around $95.

Encore performance review.
The car is very reliable and comfortable. It has the perfect amount of storage space for all my needs and can fit me and my roommates comfortably on top of that. Does not ride too low and the sound system is good. I love the Bluetooth features that make it easy to play my music and make calls safely.

The Buick Encore is a small but mighty SUV
I bought my car used with about 70,000 miles on it after my other car was totaled. While I do love the make of the Buick Encore, the car is not good on gas. It burns through a tank faster than any other car I've ever owned. The car is easy to drive through and very nice on the eyes.
George S
on March 14, 2020
I am considering a certified pre-owned or a new one.
Overall, I really enjoy this SUV. Plus: amenities, quiet, easy exit/entry, roomy for its size; minus: slow to accelerate from complete stop, gas mileage just so-so, some internal and external trim is cheap (liftgate handle does not match paint color of the rest of the vehicle; silver trim surrounding gear selector console has 'bubbled' and seems to be ready to peel).
Samantha M
on March 11, 2020
Buick encore is a great family car.
My vehicle is really reliable. It is been driving all across the country in various terrain and I have never had an issue with it. The seats are very comfortable, with plenty of options to adjust. I also really like the Bluetooth radio so I can connect my phone to my speakers.
Mattison M
on March 8, 2020
The most important thing about my car is the space it has.
I like that the encore is versatile. It is perfect for someone who has a couple children and for a person who has no children. I like that the encore has not only two compartments but three.
Janet P

This is one of the best vehicles I have owned. It is comfortable, economical.
I have had very few problems with my Buick. It drives nicely, performs well in all weather, and road trips are a pleasure. It is very reliable, and comfortable for driver and passengers. It has many features not found in other vehicles. I like it very much.
Aleasha C
on February 25, 2020
Very dependable and comfortable.
My Buick encore has been extremely reliable. The only issue I have encountered with it is some occasionally radio/auxiliary malfunctions. Every now and then the radio has a mind of its own and does not shut off or will change stations randomly. But this is a minor inconvenience and the car is a dependable car. Great size trunk and small enough to be considered compact.
Joanna M
on February 23, 2020
Buick Encore is the car for you if you want a reliable car for all weather
Driving the Buick in any weather is wonderful and reliable when driving I am not worried of the car spinning off road or going out of control. It is especially great in the snow. However it is rather small on space. As a mom of two young children I would rather have a car that I can expand the space and store the stroller.
Jae M
on February 20, 2020
Beautiful vehicle - probably not worth the price in the long run
I love my vehicle and the comfort and luxury that it offers. I love the way that it drives. It's easy to drive in unpredictable traffic and it parks like a dream. The downfall is after 3 years small things in it began to either wear away or fall apart. The AC doesn't work despite the compressor already being replaced, the chrome accents on the interior are flaking away and the radio volume knob is melting.
Troy H
on February 12, 2020
Great medium size vehicle with room for car seats and trunk space.
Car is everything I hoped for except it is not 4 wheel drive. It has leather heated seats, heated steering wheel, tilt steering as well as telescoping, XM Sirius stereo with CD player, OnStar capability, rear view camera, tilt mirrors, cruise control, a v6 motor, great gas mileage and plenty of legroom.
Patrick N
on February 7, 2020
A nice comfortable automobile.
All in all I really enjoy my encore. It is very comfortable and handles well. There are a couple of things that have gone wrong. The paint has peeled from my driver side mirror for no reason. Some of the trim inside has bubbled as well. Have had a couple of heating issues as well.
Dana S
on January 15, 2020
It has good highway mileage.
It performs amazing but I wish I would have looked more closely but I think I have the basic model. I don't have heated seats and parking sensors, however I do have a backup cam. The car is perfect for a small family.
Loutessa F
on January 11, 2020
It's loaded with all the comforts one would want.
I love the fact that It's a compact small suv (crossover) which has plenty room for my grandkids but also saves on gas. It's very comfortable with leather seating. Also has many other nice features. Navigation, rear camera and memory seat settings.
David G

The amazing 2013 Buick encore.
Great car with amazing gas mileage. Super comfortable and a smooth ride. One defect of the 2013 model is the chassis guard is too low in the front and often tends to crack with any debris on the highway. Overall, I would recommend it to any medium sized family.
Leigh Ann S
on December 26, 2019
Amazing small family vehicle.
This is a great small family vehicle. It runs well, decent gas mileage. Not a lot of cargo area. Have had no issues since we bought it. The best car we have ever had. Handles great on the interstate. Drives smooth. Would definitely purchase another. Would recommend to others. Very happy with this vehicle!

Buick encore 2013 black leather seats, comfortable.
Love this car because it is cheap on gas. Small and nice, Bluetooth and leather seats. What I do not like is the a/c stops working often, one day the air is hot and next day is cold. Love the color from the interior too gray and black. Does not have too much space but it's comfortable and nice.
Karen M
on November 19, 2019
Off to a great start This is such a great car it has a lot of style yet compact.
I love my car, very dependable and I drive an hour there and an our back 3 days a week for an 12 hour day. Of course I keep up on all maintenance and repairs hoping to make it last as long as I can and will probably invest in another one also. In the winter it has always held up pretty well it makes it through all the sleet and snow and I live by the lake so we get dumped on frequently. As far as comfort it's an easy drive with many extra heated seats all wheel drive and sky window. Cruise control, all controls are close to fingertips. I can cart many things with the lay down seats but yet easy enough to accommodate 2 baby car seats for the grandkids. Or enough room for 4 adults. A few extra light up on the front board will give you a hint as to what may be going on like low pressure in your tires has happened to me before and I was able to get to a gas station to fix that problem. I feel it has a smooth ride, and the gas mileage is not real bad but I do drive an awful lot, and gas prices is not cheap. As far as problem s go I really have not had to many to even complain about it has got me every place I needed to be so all and all I am very pleased and it will be my next car also... Thank you.
Charlye B
on November 13, 2019
I really like the gas mileage it gets. It's not to small or too big. I wish it had a little more storage room in the back for travel.
It's cost efficient because it's cheaper to fill the tank and can go about 400 miles per tank.
Jack R

It gets great gas mileage.
The Encore is a compact crossover/SUV. It is the same vehicle as the Opel Mona. I love how easy it is to park and the excellent gas mileage. My main complaint is the front passenger does not have a left armrest, and the width is just a couple of 8nches too narrow.

Drives great! Looks amazing and it is okay on gas.
No problem at all love my car. Just bad on gas at times but I do drive a lot so I cannot really complain. When looking for a car make sure you know exactly what you are looking for other wise you'll be in the dealership for hours leaving with something you didn't really want. Salespeople can be persuasive just make sure you have the facts.

It is a glorious vehicle inside and out.
2013 Buick encore: the interior is a tri-color beauty with brown, tan and cream colored leather interior with beautiful wood grain accents. There is plenty enough leg and head room in the forward compartment for individuals to 6' tall without issue. There is very little to no leg room from the back seat area although the seats are comfortable. The interior cargo area is considerable for the size of the vehicle. The exterior is called bronze. In the shade it looks brown, in the sun you can see the gold speckles shining and it does look like a very pretty bronze. Also when in the sun and looked at from different angles, one can detect a fabulous underlying deep purple color. An unexpected bonus. The vehicle is used. In the extreme climates of WI. Thus far I have not had any issues with the car not starting. The heat and a/c work like a champ.
Christina G
on July 30, 2019
Easy to drive, and good on gas.
Overall, I like driving our Encore but there are some issues I have with it. Out of all the cars I've owned, I feel like this one has needed the most maintenance. We've put a lot of money into this car, and I honestly don't see it lasting as long as others. Also, the passenger side is not overly comfortable. I do however, feel that it is a smooth and easy car to drive. It's also pretty good on gas. When I fill up my tank, it usually costs between $35-$40. It has a camera for the rear, however it does not make any noise when you get close to something. It's not the worst car I've owned, but not the best either.
Sierra A

It is an amazing car! Gets me where I need to go! And has heated seats!! It can take me long distances, it has leather seats with beautiful interior! It came with 135,000 miles so perfect! It has a backup camera and a back windshield wipers! The car overall is just very nice and I love it!
Hannah H

The Buick encore is a fun and comfortable car to drive!
I haven't had any major problems with my car. It has about 88,000 miles on it. The radio will go out sometimes which is annoying. There is also way too many buttons on the radio. I like the size of it, and the interior. The speakers could be louder. The automatic start only stays on for 5 minutes, that is annoying. The headlights also are not bright enough.

Fantastic and reliable car.
Wish it had a little more power. There is also no passenger armrest which can cause issues on longer trips. I haven't had any issues with the car or dealership. Great family car. Has plenty of room for smaller family. Love the ease with which the seats fold down to accommodate larger items.

My experience with the 2013 Buick encore.
The only problem I have had with my car is the belt is tearing up, which is causing the car to sometimes make a squeaking sound when the car is running. Other than that the car is comfortable I am short and it sits me up high also it has seat warmers Bluetooth so I can hook my phone to the radio and a camera for when I am in reverse.

Comfortable and fuel effective.
The heated steering wheel and leather seats bring a lot of comfort during the winter. The fuel efficiency is what first brought my attention to the car, and I fall in love with the car every time I drive it. I recommend this car to anybody who commutes to and from work because it has saved me a lot of money.

Definitely had some issues with paint peeling off inside and out. Side mirrors started and the chrome inside of the vehicle started to peel as well. Also since almost immediately the tires had an issue staying at the proper psi and I have had to replace 6 tires over the time I have owned the vehicle.

It is compact and efficient. It also includes many convenient features.
I love the size of it. It is fairly good on gas. It has been reliable. It also has many things that come in handy such as navigation, Bluetooth, heated seats, remote start...etc.

It is a great little car. It is important to know that oil is a synthetic blend and therefore the oil changes are a little more expensive.
I love how sporty it is. I enjoy the gas mileage that it gets. I love the features (remote start, sunroof, feel of the leather). My only dislike is how small the vehicle is with respect to fitting an infant seat in the back seat.

Reliable Buick with great safety features!
I think that the Buick encore has great gas mileage. It is reliable and rarely has issues. When it does have issues, they are quickly and efficiently fixed at the dealership. It also has great safety technology, like blind spots, lane drift alerts, backup and front cameras, and forward collision alerts.

Luxury car for less than luxury price.
Like how compact it is. Like the style of the vehicle. Like gas efficiency. Dislike backup camera.

It is not as roomie as I originally thought. It is cute and gets great mileage. It heated seats.
The car could use more trunk space. The tires are an irregular size making them more expensive. I like that it gets good mileage.

Comfortable ride - smooth and quite with decent gas mileage.
The vehicle hasn't had any major performance problems. It has over 100,000 miles on it and has provided a smooth ride.

Practicality, It's fuel efficient, safe, and easy to maintain.
My vehicle is very basic is idea and purpose. It gets me from A to B while be economical and safe, and can handle most of life's cargo needs. It is a slower vehicle on the highway, but has an amazing turning radius which makes city driving a breeze. All in all I would recommend my vehicle for the common person.

It is reliable and will suit basic utility needs.
The gas mileage may be a little high sometimes. My wallet can not stand to drive it long ways. I still love the color though..

Good reliable small size SUV.
Great turn radius. Easy to park. Front passenger side does not come with an arm rest. Has more room inside than you would guess by looking at it. Also easily fits 5 normal sized people. Haven't had really any issues since I bought it used beyond the normal maintenance.

My car has All-Wheel Drive with a turbo-charged engine, which makes it a great car for Minnesota winters.
My Buick Encore is very practical. It is small, yet has lots of interior room and versatility. I also need its All-Wheel Drive for our hill in the winter. I really like it's cocoa-silver color with the saddle interior. It has been reliable and comfortable to drive.

An Encore is a great car if you are looking for a compact SUV.
It is a compact sport utility vehicle that does not have a big trunk, but the seats can be put down for extra storage. I like the fog lights and other features such as Bluetooth radio.
