2002 Buick Rendezvous CX review from North America
"Don't buy GM"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bought a new 2002 Rendezvous in July 2001 – So Far – replaced the A/C (under warranty), replaced 2 front wheel rotors (Reimbursed by Buick), Paint is bubbling on the hood, fake chrome is peeling of the hood, Fuel gauge always says full and I add a gallon of coolant per month. I brought the car into Buick today to get the Fuel gauge (requires dropping the tank $570.00) and the coolant leak (lower gasket $1420) repaired. I was told I also need new wiper blades $36 – Nice to know they are thinking of me. P.S. My other car is a 1998 CRV – tune it up every 3 years change the oil every 3k – never had a problem. No wonder GM is no longer #1.
