Engine Failure at 88,079 miles
I do not recommend this vehicle. I bought the 2015 Buick Encore off the lot. At 88,079 miles on August 29, 2019 the car experienced “internal engine failure, turbo charger failure and complete exhaust system contamination”. Car was a total loss. I did not have the extended warranty and had to buy a new car. Buick Corporate Customer Car did give me $2,000 toward a new car. I never dreamt a 2015 would cease to function when it had proper maintenance at 88,079 miles.

Not completely satisfied with my Buick encore!
The seats are not comfortable, to the point of having my back hurt at some times. I have had to replace the turbo, ac that quit out of nowhere. There are a lot of blind spots when driving on the road. The back seats are a bit hard to get in and out of.

It's a beautiful caramel car with black customs seats
It's amazing. The interior is great. The engine is amazing. I've got a lot done to it by adding additional paint and objects to it. The AC blows beautifully. It's GREAT. You'll really love this car and want to drive it any and everywhere. My family and I always go on vacations just to ride in the car.

The best vehicle I could've bought!
The Buick encore is so comfortable and the perfect size for a single person or small family. This has been the most reliable vehicle because I have only had the take it to the garage for oil changes; no major issues at all!

Reliable, practical, and economical.
This is the ideal car for single mom 1 kid, career, that like to do projects on the house. The back seat lay back and I can fit lumber from home depot and still have the kid in the car. Perfect for drive in movies open the back, great on gas, with covid and traveling half time to a job 80mi roundtrip.

No sleep, no loud music, fun to drive.
I love this car. My only annoyance is that the trunk is not long enough to sleep in. I take it camping a lot and it is not a comfortable car to sleep in. It is comfortable to drive, though, and I love it. I guess I wish the radio volume went louder as well. It is very quiet compared to other cars I have owned.

An amazing car for a young women who is looking for a spacious but not to big.
The car I drive is amazing I purchased it from a local dealer in my area. At first I wasn't sure if the car fit me but after taking tit out for a drive I knew it was the one. The dealership really gave me a great price at 20,000 I got a 2015 buick encore with less than 10,000 miles on it. The car also had a premium package so it had upgraded everything, even amazing leather seats.

It is alright but not the best.
The car is not fast enough for me. Does not accelerate fast up hills with the ac on. I do like the size of the car. The car is a little light because when it is windy you really have to hold on and pull the car to the right way. The gas mileage is alright. Overall the car could be better and should be a v6 engine for the size of car.

Fantastic interior, great space for size of car.
Really comfortable seats and interior. Gauges are really sporty looking. The seat material is really durable and great looking. This is the smaller SUV, so hatch space is limited, but is more than what it looks like on first glance. Bluetooth is touchy at times, but a small nit at best.

The perks of Buick encore.
It's a reliable car, has good gas mileage and has a sporty look. The back seats fold down allowing for more room. Its equipped with CD player/Bluetooth and navigation system when purchased. Comes with power steering, mechanical locks, and traction control. It has the option of a manual or automatic transmission. Has hands free calling as well as stereo controls on the steering wheel.

Good starter vehicle with great gas mileage.
It takes a while to pick up speed, especially when trying to merge on a highway. I also notice that when the car is weighed down, it tends to pull slowly. It is great on gas mileage and repairs have been low cost. It does require fully synthetic oil changes but the expenses is not a big difference.

The size of the car is a very happy medium.
I have had my car since I was in high school and I share it with my 2 siblings. Between the 3 of us, someone is always driving the car. We have had issues in the past but it's usually because someone hit the car on the garage or something else that is our fault. I love my car and couldn't ask for anything else at this time.

Buick encore small problems but overall big satisfaction.
I have had the vehicle for three years and it was reliable. I had minimal issues with the vehicle except after 2 1/2 years an ignition coil and spark plug had to be replaced (vehicle was sputtering on acceleration, and the repair was covered under warranty). I thought other than that issue it handled well and the interior was roomy.

Buick encore good for average driving.
It is an ok vehicle for most uses. Could be a bit bigger. Somewhat underpowered, but in most cases, that does not matter. Not thrilled with the navigation and other controls that uses a knob instead of touch screen. Leather interior is nice, just need to be sure to condition it regularly so it does not dry out.

Best car, you won't regret it.
I have had no problems with my car. Its clean, it runs well, very smooth. Mine has no car seat heaters, but I was able to buy one and I love it otherwise. My favorite part is the screen, I love where it is located and its very convenient. Definitely recommend buying this car, you won't regret it.

2015 Buick encore highly recommend.
My 2015 Buick encore has a great performance with turbo drives real good. Great on gas mileage. All leather exterior with sunroof. Has backup camera and sensors around the vehicle. Front seats reclines all the way back plenty of leg room. Back seats fold down if need more trunk space. Trunk space is small but manageable. Has navigation but not touch screen and sound system not as loud as a 2016 Buick encore. Overall would recommend a great vehicle.

Good everyday vehicle with few limitations.
The vehicle has been pretty reliable over the years despite some regular check engine issues. But the vehicle was bought used and not new. It drives well though and is okay for comfort. It's not the best for transporting things do do the limited cargo space and is not the best for long road trips in terms of comfort.

AWD is great to have in upstate New York.
Biggest problem is it is a little on the small side. If I could go back, I would get the next bigger model. It is the first vehicle I have had that has all wheel drive, which works great in this wintery part of the country. Have had problems with the hatchback opening hard from time to time.

Cannot beat my Buick encore for quality, assurance, and performance.
Nice interior, easy to adjust seats,etc. Handles nicely on the road. It is a four door which makes it easier to seat more than two people. Has a hatchback pull down to hold groceries, luggage, or other items. My girlfriend is tiny, but she finds it easy to drive also. This was a good purchase.

Buick encores are nothing but issues.
It is not a jeep and ever since I bought the encore it is been nothing but a money guzzler. I have had to replace the tires the brake the gas pump and so much more in just 2 years that I have owned it. I will never buy a Buick again. They are unreliable vehicles and totally not worth the amount of money you pay for them.

Great small compact SUV!
Fantastic features especially for being a 2015. It comes with blind spot detection which is key and very helpful! The ride is always smooth and feels like a cloud. The SUV is small but comfortable for even larger people. There’s plenty of storage in the trunk and the seats fold down which is helpful in getting things transported.

My encore is small enough to easily park and large enough to hold my mother's wheelchair, as the back lays down to include the back seat. It a great color - silver with black leather interior.

It's a good car I mean it's got good mileage. Not very reliable however, been taken to the mechanic a bunch. Its paint is chipping and brake pads get worn out fast. Like 20 miles to the gallon which makes up for that. Anyways that sums it about up you can get it or not your call.

What I do not like about the encore.
The car is overall good. It just stalls often, it uses up the water very quick, the ac is not as cool as the first times even though all levels of gas and antifreeze are good. The axels are not very strong and need to be replaced frequently. I also parked the car and the gears shifted on their own making the car crash into a tree nearby.

The Buick Encore is a right-sized SUV

Gray 2015 Buick encore SUV base.
There was an issue early on with the engine which was unfortunate because it has under 70,000 miles. But after the engine replacement, it is reliable. There are occasionally issues with the rpm that I notice and it makes the car lurch or feel like it is catching, but that is rare.

Luxurious and reasonable with plenty features.
I have a 2015 Buick encore. It looks amazing it screams luxury and has a lot of awesome features. It has leather seats, on star, heated seats, Bluetooth radio and the backup camera. It is not the best on gas and unfortunately the dash lights go out often. It is very spacious on the inside but not too big of a SUV. It is very comfortable with bucket seats. The front passenger lacks an armrest which is so odd to me.

Smallest SUV car you've ever been in.
Very bumpy, does not deal with road terrain very well. The trunk is small, narrow and small in height too. Adequate leg room, but seriously no room in the trunk for anything. Trunk door does not self-close. Very uncomfortable drive, feel every bump in the road. Doors do feel sturdy and better than most of the plastic-based doors/cars.

The only thing I do not like about my car is GPS is not touch.
My car is very reliable. I have not had a no start problem. For a small car it is super comfortable. The leather is sleek and beautiful black. My Buick is great on gas. I am able to continue passing gas stations. I have automatic start which means on cold days or hot days I can start my car without having to get in, thereby being comfortable when I get in with either heat or air condition. Everything in the vehicle is automatic so once you set your seats and mirrors they are set until you change them. I would buy this car again.

Amazing ride on my Buick encore.
The ride of this vehicles is amazing. If you drive any distance, this is the car for you. I have never had such a smooth ride. I had narrowed my search for a car down to the Buick or the Chevy traverse. As soon as I drove the Buick, I was hooked. Gas mileage for this car is good. I get between 25-35 mpg. It depends if I am traveling on interstate or going through the mountains as to my actual mileage. . . But I am happy with it.

The biggest complaint I have with my Buick encore is the trunk/back of it is very small. It is very hard to haul boxes or many sacks in the space.

The car is really great at fitting into small parking spots. It drives smoothly, it is comfortable with care the engine should easily last 200,000 miles. Six-speed automatic deliver anemic acceleration however, and fuel economy is disappointing for a vehicle of this size. Handling is sound, though unexceptional. The cabin is reasonably well appointed, but feels narrow and cramped. The swoopy styling intrudes on the view in the rear.

The Buick Encore offers a spacious interior, inside of a small package.
I love my car. It is small enough to fit into any spot, but with a quick reconfiguration of the back seats it reveals a surprisingly huge interior. I have a Boxer and a Great Dane and all 3 of us fit perfectly with room to spare. The performance of my little car is outstanding. It has the power to get up and go when I need it to and the ability to just cruise to save on gas. It has plenty of storage compartments, the interior lighting is wonderful. It is without a doubt the best car I've ever owned.

I love that I can connect my cell phone to radio.
I love it enjoy being hire up when I drive. I will never go back to a car. The only thing I don't like is hatch is very small love the color and the friendly sales people also when on the road it drives smooth and gets good gas mileage very comfy to drive in and ride in.

It's brand new for me after driving something I didn't really like for forever
I love that I sit up higher. I do wish the engine was a little more powerful and the trunk a little bigger

I like being able to receive texts and phone calls hands free
I am very pleased with this vehicle. It's perfect size SUV. Not too big not too small. It runs and rides great. It gets great gas mileage. I've never had any problems with it. I like the features it came with such as letting me know when I need air in my tires, when it's time for an oil change. Bluetooth capabilities so I have hands free talking and texting right through the radio.

The cargo space is limited but the back seats fold down so you can double the room.
It's a very comfortable ride. I it gets great gas mileage

Amazing stereo system with small differences from a BMW.
Sometimes the car misfires if I speed up too fast. I am used to driving a BMW and the Buick does not drive the same as my former x5. But it is still a very nice car. I do love the stereo system and navigation system for the Buick encore. There are Bose speakers that are absolutely amazing.

Ok for small family around town type driving. Not good for long distance travel.
The car is absolutely Beautiful and I think that it would be perfect if it were larger on the inside. I am 5'11' and when we take road trips I am absolutely miserable. The car is comfortable for around the town type driving but long trips it is difficult and that is something being as it is supposed to be a luxury vehicle. Also the front passenger seat has no armrest! What kind of luxury vehicle only has a driver armrest? Saying that the driver armrest is small and not that comfortable. If I were to purchase again I would go for a larger model with a bigger arm rest and leg room area.

The Encore for the Encore
Comfortable ride. Beautiful interior. Absolutely pleasure to drive and got it for a great price. Wouldn't hesitate to get another.

As long as the car was under warranty the dealer was great, once it was out of warranty I am driving a bomb and heading for bankruptcy trying to keep the car running. Do not buy this car from Mossy Motors

It's good for your buck but not the fanciest.
I like that it's an suv but it's still kind of small. It's also not fast but it's cheap.

This car is great for all different types of people, young drivers, families and those who are single.
I have a Buick Encore and I truly love this car. It has enough room for bikes and bags without being a huge car I feel I can't drive in. No I currently have no complaints.

So in love with my Buick encore!!
I have grown more and more in love with my car as time has gone on. I wanted a dependable, reliable vehicle that would last for a while, was economical, and affordable. I drive 120 miles round trip 3 times a week and my Buick has been fantastic. Its comfortable, clean, and I love the look of it! My husband is over 6 foot and he fits comfortably. I will definitely buy another Buick!

Leather interior back up camera rides great holds the road.
The only complaint that I have is it does not have auto lift for the back it heavy and inconvenient when you have your hands full it is good on gas and handles great on the road I love the looks of it.

The back seats fold down in a 2 step sequence.
I purchased my car used. It drives comfortably, it handles well. Its relatively comfortable. I really enjoy driving it. I definitely appreciate the safety features of the car, especially the blind spot notification lights on the side view mirrors.

My Buick encore'. This car is comfortable and feels so safe.
I have no problems with my Buick encore. It is very comfortable. It handles exceptionally well in bad weather as well as good. Wind does not seem to affect it either. Love the dash camera of the back. Very helpful in parking as well as backing. I can see my dogs if they are behind me when I put it into reverse. The trunk holds more than it appears and is easy to load and unload. The seats are more comfortable than in many cars. The economy is pretty good. The windows are easy to see through. I am extremely satisfied with my Buick encore and would purchase a new one if and when that becomes necessary.

To be careful of the 'blind spots' found in the rear two corners.
My Buick Encore is the perfect size for 2 adults. It is luxury enough to be very comfortable, yet not to luxury to be able to take into the mountains for camping. It handles very well on the mountain roads. It has a reverse camera which gives a wide range of view, and bluetooth capability almost words to well. The one downfall for the car are the "blind spots". Especially the back two corners. Yes that is why there is a backup camera, but they still are rather wide. We keep up on oil changes and overall inspections and have had no problems in 3 years.

I drive a sleek, small crossover. It's a perfect car for a single woman/dog mom.
The only issue I've had is that the check engine light comes on frequently but nothing is actually wrong - related to this, when it's below 40 degrees F, the computerized system for backup camera, radio, Bluetooth, etc. Won't work in the car unless you turn it on and let it heat up first.
