2002 Buick Rendezvous CX review from North America
"A more comfortable ride than a SUV, more stylish than a van"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Rendezvous had only one minor problem at approximately 8000 miles where the odometer display failed. This was corrected by the dealership, but required a week of repair time. The problem has not re-occurred.
Air vents make too much noise when set to heat and set to blow out of the upper vents.
General comments?
The Rendezvous gets approximately 26 to 28 miles per gallon at 65 miles per hour on the highway. Very respectable. In town mileage is approximately 21 to 22 miles per gallon.
