It is unreliable, it is broken down on me several times. Leaving me stranded.
My vehicle is having many problems right now, including my gas gauge being broken. It also has terrible gas mileage.

My Buick is great and reliable
The Buick is reliable. Good In any weather. Has a lot of space in the trunk and I can fit 3 car seats all in the back seat. Good size for adults with kids! It has a broken speedometer but I bought the part and will have to fix it soon. It's also very good on gas!

It is a three row car and the trunk space is very small when the third row is up.
It is a very reliable car. After almost over 260000 miles I had to rebuild the transmission but other than that just keeping up with the maintenance of the car for many years.

It is reliable and dependable, which is the best thing about it.
I love that it is super reliable. It always gets me where I need to go and rarely has problems. However, it has really bad gas mileage, and it is very bad at accelerating.

It has a lot of storage space to get groceries, move furniture, etc.
I like the fact that there is a lot of storage room. In the back seat, the seat in the middle lays down for cup holders and console. It's good on gas.

Love My Buick It sticks with you like family
The first problem I experience with my suv running hot that was until I read the manual that is a must with every car, truck, van or suv. I being driving this same car for twelve years and I love it. I have taken it on long trips as well as casual driving in my hometown. Now I am experiences the wear and tear you expect like hoses, the starter, the battery, and unfortunately my stirring section went out. But other than that it drives excellent and would love to have another

Dependable, safe, and luxurious to drive.
I'm very pleased with my Buick! Out of the many cars I've owned, this one would be the hardest to part from. It can seat 7 very comfortably! Bucket seats in back are also a great feature. We take this car on any road trip we go on, because we know that it'll never let us down! Leather, heated seats, DVD player, heads up display, and great on fuel mileage(especially for having a V6 engine) all wheel drive always keeps my family extra safe during winter. A lot of snow and ice where we live

Does get 25-30 mph, and can fit a full-size crotch rocket in it
Driven 2 years, have been doing regular maintenance, was at 173,000 miles when bought, now since it has rolled over 200,000 miles it overheats regardless of outside temp. Even the middle of winter at -10' outside it has overheated, replacement of thermostat and constantly telling the camshaft sensor is bad even tho that was replaced, water pump went out and replaced, more than likely have to have head gasket and intake gaskets replaced next but no coolant/oil mixes present. Also no leaks from the tailpipe

Front wheel bearings and thermastat replacement
Front bearing units too small for weight of vehicle had to replace 2 times before 160,000 miles. Also tune up and thermastat replacement expensive due to having to pull engine forward in cradle to get at plugs and wires. Also have to remove intake to get to thermastat not good.

It is the best car I have ever had.
Haven't had very many problems with my car. I bought it used from my landlord. We changed the oil, transmission fluid and filter, spark plugs and wires, and put new tires on it. Had to change a couple of sensors and a rear bushing. Other than that, there is not anything bad that I can say about my car.

The best car ever because of its beauty.
The car has no issues. It is super reliable. The only thing is that because it is older it does not have all the newest features which can be bothersome sometimes. Overall, it is very nice and gets around nicely and has good gas mileage also. Can travel very far.

An interesting detail of this car is that you can set 2 different positions for the seat so if someone adjusts it you can just press a button and it will adjust to your setting.

My 2004 Buick Rendezvous Review
The extra hauling space comes in handy a lot. There have been some things that went bad before and after the extended warranty expired. Right now the worst is that two of the electric windows won't work and it'll take awhile before we can save up to have enough money to get them fixed.

I love the all wheel drive systems.
The main feature that I enjoy about the Buick Rendezvous is the all wheel drive system. I live in rural Montana USA where we have some pretty intense Winters. I have had this car four years now and have never gotten stuck on my way to work. The flip side about this vehicle is that it does have quirks. I had to change the computer system three different times to fix a skipping issue. I have also had to regularly have maintenance done such as an exhaust leak Etc. Recently two months ago at a hundred and thirty-five Thousand Miles I had to have the transmission replaced. This car is also super expensive to have any kind of body work replacement done. I just paid over $150 for one replacement hubcap and 5 plastic lug nuts. Also the cluster stopped working at about 119,000 miles. All in all it is an over glorified SUV that they stopped making because of such issues.
accountCircle Taryn E on January 18, 2020
Lots of space! Even with two car seats, we always have enough room for anything we want to fit.
It's very old, and the previous owners did not clean it very well before giving it to us. The engine runs loud at high speeds, and sometimes the steering wheel locks up and won't allow the key to turn. But it's very spacious so we can travel and have adventures with 2 kids in car seats.

Has heating in the back for comfort for both front and back seats.
I like the fact that it has good gas mileage and that it has leather seats and has room for 7 people also have fold-down seats in the back so that I can get my groceries in there with still all my family with me my only problem with the fold-down seat part is that when that back seat is up there is no room to put anything in the back unless the seats are down.

Leaky rendezvous with wet floorboard.
I loved the car when I bought it but with all of the mileage and wear on the vehicle it's not my ideal daily driver anymore. I've had it for about 5-6 years now and I am having a lot of issues with it. The power steering leaks but not constantly, only so often. There is a leak somewhere in the windshield so the floor board stays soaked from rain. At this point the only thing I like about the car is its paid off and I don't have to worry about payments.

Buick rendezvous the best car I have had!
The only problem I really have with the car is that it's hard to get the back seats back in the car after they are removed. Simply because I am not strong enough to lift them. The car has amazing mileage and has plenty of space. I moved while owning this car and it took half the time of my first move with a much smaller vehicle. The car has high miles but still runs. Perfectly. The tires need filled up every now and again but the car always tells me when so I do not have to worry about checking on that myself which is really nice. I have taken the car cross country a couple times and it does amazing on highways and bathe car is very quiet on the highway which I find ideal for long trips.

Great family car. Be prepared for sunroof leaks.
This is an amazing family car. Can fit four passengers in the back. The back seat folds flat and the captain seats in the middle can be taken out. The only issue I have had is the drain tubes in the sunroof tends to clog and burst and cause the sunroof to leak water into the cabin.

Better distributing space.
The heating and air conditioning is kind of shot, I like the amount of seating it has but not the lack of legroom in the back seats. I also do not like how I have to choose between extra seating and cargo space. I do like the height of my car, and the gas mileage is not too shabby.

Buick Rendezvous Performance: A vehicle that has excellent pickup.
This vehicle has a lot of interior space. This vehicle seats seven passengers comfortably. The seats in the vehicle are very comfortable. There is a cassette and a CD player which is a nice combo for those who still own cassettes. The interior light comes on when the driver's door is opened. The headlights can be set to automatic which is a nice feature. The vehicle also has cruise control which can be set at 35 miles per hour. This gives you the option of resting your foot. There is a lot of legroom in the Buick Rendezvous. There is lighter in front and one behind the driver's seat which allows charging of cell phones and other devices. The vehicle performs very well on surface streets and on the highway. The vehicle has great pickup. The pickup is so good that you have to monitor your speed. Most times you are going faster than you think. That is why I use the cruise control most of the time. The traction system went out on the vehicle as well the two oxygen sensors.

Very reliable when certain maintenance issues are corrected
One major problem on most Buicks, are the intake manifolds and head gaskets. It seems to be a problem with each one. And needs to be fixed immediately. It will leak out all of your antifreeze, and if not fixed can permanently damage your vehicle.

A midsize SUV that offers tons of room and is very stylish for an older car.
I genuinely love my Buick. It is so roomy and drives so smooth. As far as gas goes, it gets about 19 miles to the gallon. I think my overall favorite thing about my Buick is how it looks and how it makes me feel when I drive it. Some problems I have had recently include that it has been overheating. We recently found out this is because of a bad head gasket, which is cost around $2,000 to fix. However, I still feel that what we paid for the vehicle is completely worth it, even with adding in the unexpected repair cost. One other minor design flaw that I have found is that the windshield washer fluid comes out of the windshield wipers themselves, so about 50% of the windshield washer fluid actually misses the windshield, and you seem to go through a lot more. But that really isn't a big deal since it's only about $3 for a gallon. That's just me being nitpicky. If given the chance to do it all over again, I would buy my Buick every time. I absolutely love it and the way it feels and how it drives! It really is a great car that I would recommend to anyone!
