2004 Buick Rendezvous review from North America
"Drives great in the snow, but what a money pit"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1 There was a recall for the back latch = noted for opening by itself.
2. The left front wheel bearing had to be replaced by 50,000, and the right side by 55,000. That was $1,300.
3. The front brakes needed replacing at 33,000 (they totally disintegrated). My husband does the break work and has never seen rotors like this in 40 years.
4. There was a recall for the covers on the C.V. joints.
5. Paint on the hood blistered and needed work. (covered under the warranty).
